Explain how the costs of poor quality can affect competitiveness.

1 answer:

8 0

The competitiveness of a good usually depends on two key factors: its price, and its quality. While poor quality goods are less competitive from a quality perspective but poor quality goods are usually cheaper to produce resulting to a lower final price. So overall, the lower the cost and the higher the quality the more competitive a good is.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

$6,500

Explanation:

For computing the estimated fixed cost, we have to determine the variable cost per hour which is shown below:

Variable cost per hour = (High power cost - low power cost) ÷ (High machine hours - low machine hours)

= ($20,000 - $11,000) ÷ (12,000 hours - 4,000 hours)

= $9,000 ÷ 8,000 hours

= $1.125

Now the fixed cost equal to

= High power cost - (High machine hours × Variable cost per hour)

= $20,000 - (12,000 hours × $1.125)

= $20,000 - $13,500

= $6,500

Age
Residence
Support
Joint return
Citizenship

The problem with Angela is that she fails number 1, which means that she has no legal relationship with the Dasrups. She would qualify for the remaining 5, but if only one is missing, then the IRS will not qualify Angela.

On the other hand, Siera qualifies because she meets all the requirements.
