Answer: predatory pricing.

Answer:
Purchases= $252,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales= $400,000
Cost of goods sold equal to 65 percent of sales.
Beginning inventory= $80,000
Ending inventory= $72,000
To calculate the purchase required, we need to use the following formula:
Purchases= sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory
Purchases= (400,000*0.65) + 72,000 - 80,000
Purchases= $252,000
Answer:
(2). Although her request to telecommute was denied, Lindsay will begin a flextime schedule in two weeks.
Explanation:
The second choice would be the most preferred as it conveys the idea in a formal and precise manner. <u>The complex sentence beginning with the subordinate clause already hints the listener that the key message is yet to come. It helps him/her in understanding the intended message without any confusion</u>. The first sentence fails to create that specificity as it connects two independent ideas which remove the listener's focus from the main idea i.e. 'she will begin a flextime schedule in two weeks.' Thus, option (2) adopts the correct format and sentence structure to deliver the message effectively, efficiently, and precisely.
Answer:
E (Last one, you didn't put a letter for it)
Explanation:
The answer is E because a price reduction, depending on how large it is, will mostly have an effect on consumer, or in this case, customer sales. In this case, since it is a smaller percentage, it may not have a very big effect though.
