Answer:
It will be more profitable to vertically integrate because the company will be able to further reduce its costs.
Explanation:
Profit = Sales - Cost
The lower the cost, the higher the profit (if sales remains the same).
A Vertical integration strategy requires a company to <u>own or control its suppliers (backward integration) or its distributors or retailers (forward integration)</u>, and therefore, gain more control over its value chain.
<em>If the U.S. automobile company chooses to vertically integrate into the car retailing business in countries where it sells most of its cars, then it would cut out certain costs, such as the cost of contracting with independent car dealers, which would further improve profitability.</em>
Also, such forward integration into retailing means the company will develop processes along its value chain that will increase the efficiency of its operations.
Answer: $220,000
Explanation:
Using the Accrual Method of Accounting means that revenue is only to be recorded when it is earned i.e. when services have been delivered.
Any revenue received when the services have not been delivered will be recorded as Unearned Revenue.
With $528,000 in subscription revenue, the monthly subscription is;
= 528,000/12
= $44,000
From June to December would be 7 months so they would have earned;
= 44,000 * 7
= $308,000
The amount that they have not earned but have received would therefore be;
= 528,000 - 308,000
= $220,000
<em>This amount will be recorded after they finish deliveries of magazines in next year May. </em>
