Answer:

It will affect Wendy's fast- food sales negatively.

Explanation:

Especially if the competitors have larger market share than Wendy's Fast-food.  There will be a switch in consumers from Wendy's Fast-food to it's competitor, therefore reducing its sales and invariably reducing it's profit.

Therefore, Wendy's fast-food should be in tune with price fluctuation of it's competitors especially if it is a price decrease.

Kearney Inc. has a factory with the following characteristics: direct labor of $82056, direct materials of $52432 fixed overhead
frutty [35]

Answer:

The amount of cost from Pool A that is allocated to LQ6 is $7,802.

Explanation:

Since Pool A includes all variable overhead and uses direct labor as the allocation base, we can obtain the following from the question:

Direct labor = $82,056

Variable overhead = $146,362

Number of labor hours used by LQ6 = 162

Factory's labor costs per hour = $27

Therefore, we have:

Factory's labor cost of LQ6 = Number of labor hours used by LQ6 * Factory's labor costs per hour = 162 * $27 = $4,374

Variable over allocated to LQ6 from Pool A = (Factory's labor cost of LQ6 / Direct labor) * Variable overhead = ($4,374 / $82,056) * $146,362 = $7,801.83518572682

Rounding to whole number of $ as required, we have:

Variable over allocated to LQ6 from Pool A = $7,802

Therefore, the amount of cost from Pool A that is allocated to LQ6 is $7,802.

The market size and market growth rates in the foreign market can be influenced negatively by:______.A. population sizes, income
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

A. population sizes, income levels and cultural influences, the current state of the infrastructure and distribution and retail networks available.

Explanation:

The reason is that the foreign markets are affected by the cultural differences for example if US clothing brand enters Suadia Arabia then it can not sell its brands here because in the Suadia Arabian culture girls wear full sleeves and are not skin tight fits. This means that the culture have an influence over the foreign markets. Likewise the income level tells about how much the customer can spend on luxury items, population of customers available is also an attractive part that the investors see to move in the markets. The infrastructure of a country and the regional importance of the state are also the motivators for the foreign companies to move in to the market.

These factors are the ecosystem of the country that gives insight of the market size and market growth of a particular market.

Your​ company, which has a MARR of​ 12%, is considering the following two investment​ alternatives:
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

future worth:

project A  11,615.26

project B  12,139.18‬

It should choose project B as their future value is greater

IRR of project A: 13.54%

We should remember that the IRR is the rate at which the net value is zero thus, equals the inflow with the cash outlay

It is calculate with excel or financial calculator due to the complex of the formula.

Explanation:

Project A

We calculate the future value of the cash flow per year and cost as we are asked for future value. The salvage value is already at the end of the project life so we don't adjust it.

Revenues future value

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = FV\\  

C 15,000

time 8

rate 0.12

15000 \times \frac{(1+0.12)^{8} -1}{0.12} = FV\\  

FV $184,495.3970  

Expenses future value

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = FV\\

C 3,000

time 10

rate 0.12

3000 \times \frac{(1+0.12)^{10} -1}{0.12} = FV\\  

FV $52,646.2052  

Cost future value

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount  

Principal 40,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.12000

40000 \: (1+ 0.12)^{10} = Amount  

Amount 124,233.93

Net future worth:

-124,233.93 cost - 52,646.21 expenses + 184,495.40 revenues + 4,000 salvage value

future worth 11,615.26

Project B

cost:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount  

Principal 60,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.12000

60000 \: (1+ 0.12)^{10} = Amount  

Amount 186,350.89

expenses 52,646.21 (same as previous)

revenues

C \times \frac{(1+r)^{time} }{rate} = FV\\  

C 24,000

time 7

rate 0.12

24000 \times \frac{(1+0.12)^{7} -1}{0.12} = FV\\  

FV $242,136.2815  

TOTAL

242,136.28 + 9,000 - 52,646.21 - 186,350.89 = 12,139.18‬

Internal rate of return of project A

we write the time and cash flow for each period.

Time Cash flow

0 -40,000

1 -3,000

2 -3,000

3 12,000

4 12,000

5 12,000

6 12,000

7 12,000

8 12,000

9 12,000

10 16,000

IRR 13.54%

Then we write on excel the function =IRR(select the cashflow)

and we got the IRR of the project
