Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Hybrid cars get better gas mileage than traditional cars.

Explanation:

One-Tailed Tests are statistical studies conducted to show that a given sample has higher or worse features than the total population. The two outcomes cannot happen. Only one will be the result of the test. The researcher, in such a case, conducts the study in one direction and does not consider the other possible outcome.

Then, the research on hybrid cars attempts to prove they are better in gas mileage compared to regular vehicles. Therefore, the researcher is using the one-tailed test approach.

Answer:

cartel

Explanation:

A "cartel" is a group of competitors or market participants who are independent from each other. They work in unison by cooperating secretly in an unlawful way so they can control the supply and price of their products. In this way, they can dominate the market.

Vaseline, the world's most famous—and priciest—brand of petroleum jelly, wants to improve its financial performance (i.e. revenu

ohaa [14]

Answer:

Please consider the following explanation

Explanation:

Vaseline can improve its financial performance by doing some product differentiation, as the rest 15% are also selling petroleum jelly but at much lower costs than Vaseline, and to convince its customers to spend extra bucks to buy Vaseline, it needs to provide something extra.

Vaseline can incorporate extra ingredients like aloevera, or turmeric, etc, i.e. the beauty or health fashions prevalent in the market this information can be obtained by a thorough research of the beauty blogs available online.

Once the product has something extra, Vaseline can go ahead and market its product better based on the benefits of the product differentiation, and hence steam away market from the remaining 15% and increase its financial performance.

A process plant making 5000 kg/day of a product selling for $1.75/kg has annual variable pro- duction costs of $2 million at 100

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

a. Breakeven point = Fixed cost / Contribution margin

Contribution margin = Selling price - Variable costs per unit

Variable cost per unit = 2,000,000 / (5,000 * 365 days)

= $1.10

Contribution margin = 1.75 - 1.10

= $0.65

Breakeven point = 700,000 / 0.65

= 1,076,923 kg

Fixed cost per kilogram at those units is:

= 700,000 / 1,076,923

= $0.65

_________________________________________________________

b. Net profit at original prices:

= (Contribution margin * units produced) - Fixed costs

= (0.65 * 5,000 * 365) - 700,000

= $486,250

Less taxes:

= 486,250 * (1 - 35%)

= $316,062.50

Net profit after price increase:

New selling price = 1.75 * 1.1

= $1.93

Net profit = ((Selling price - Variable cost) * units sold) - fixed cost

= ( (1.93 - 1.10) * 5,000 * 365) - 700,000

= $814,750

After tax:

= 814,750 * (1 - 35%)

= $529,587.50

Dollar increase:

= 529,587.50 - 316,062.50

= $213,525

Mr. Dealer bought a fleet of SUVs (sport utility vehicles) from General Motors (GM) on credit, GM agreeing not to assign the res

Temka [501]

Answer:

Yes, Dealer could collect damages from GM because basically GM breached the contract. Any time a contract is breached, the non-breaching party can sue. But the real question here is what amount could the court assign to Dealer as compensation for damages incurred. If you want to rephrase this question, it would be: What damages did Dealer suffer due to GM's breach.

If the damages are not significant, then the court will probably assign some amount for nominal damages. To be honest, the greatest expenses here are actually the legal costs of the lawsuit. Unless Dealer can prove that assigning the contract actually hurt them (which I doubt), then the court will assign a small amount. Sometimes nominal damages can be very small and mostly symbolic, e.g. $1.
