REY [17]

Answer:

<u>Predatory pricing</u>

Explanation:

A "predator" refers to an animal who survives by "preying" on other animals.

Predatory pricing in a similar sense refers to that form of excessively low pricing which in a way consumes other firms by taking away their share of industry revenues. Such form of pricing is considered illegal and is against healthy competition.

Such pricing eliminates competitors from the market and gradually leads to emergence of a monopoly i.e supremacy of a single firm in the whole industry and thus considered an illegal practice.

In the given case, the retail chain can be alleged to have followed predatory pricing which is substantiated by the fact that it cuts it's prices excessively i.e even below cost , thereby forcing smaller companies to exit the industry.

Northern Organic Farms is considering a project which will produce annual sales of $975,000 and increase cash expenses by $848,0

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

B) $114,000

Explanation:

To calculate the operating cash flows using the top down approach we can use the following equation:

operating cash flow = increase in total sales - increase in total expenses - increase in taxes paid

operating cash flow = $975,000 - $848,000 - ($154,000 - $141,000) = $975,000 - $848,000 - $13,000 = $114,000

I didn't include depreciation since it is normally included to calculate the increase in taxes but taxes were already given.

Dome Metals has credit sales of $270,000 yearly with credit terms of net 90 days, which is also the average collection period. A

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Net change in income = $8,100

Explanation:

Given:

Current credit sales= $270,000 per year.

Average collection period= 90 days

A 2/15, net 90 means a 20℅ discount if payment is made within 15 days.

Which means new credit terms increase will be

(90/15) * 20℅ = 120℅

We now find the following:

•Revised sales will be = (current sales * new credit terms increase)

= $270,000 * 120℅ = $324,000

•Increase in sales = ( new sales - current sales)

=$324,000 - $270,000 = $54,000

•Profit increase = (profit percent * Increase in sales)

= 15℅ * $54,000 = $8,100

• Average receivable under existing policy =

= $270,000 * (90/360) = $67,500

• Average under new policy =

$325,000 * (15/360) = $13,500

• Receivable reduction= $67,500 - $13,500 = $54,000

• Interest savings

= $54,000 * 12℅ = $6,480

• Cost of discount =

$324,000 * 2℅ = $6,480

Therefore the net change in income if new credit terms are adopted will be = (increase in profit + interest savings - cost of discount)

= $8,100+$6,480-$6,480

= $8,100
