Answer: b. The company did not define its business in terms of the benefits customers seek.

Explanation:

In order for a business to make money, it needs to provide its customers with what they want not what the company wants the customers to want.

In this scenario, people switched to shampoos that could be used by people of all ages instead of just small children because this is what they wanted but not what the company provided. If the company had defined its business in terms of what their customers wanted, they would have made an all age shampoo which would have been bought.

madreJ [45]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

The following formulas will be used in order to calculate the accounts receivable turnover ratio and in order to find out the number of days collect.

Accounts receivable turnover ratio = Net sales divided by Average net Accounts receivable

=\$ 50,370 /[(\$ 7,250+\$ 5,720) / 2]

=\$ 50,370 / \$ 6,485

= 7.77 times

<u>Days to collect</u> = 365 divided by Accounts receivable turnover ratio

= $365  divided by 7.77

= 47 days

<u>Note</u>: The number of days that has been assumed is 365 days

If the Market Equilibrium Wage Rate is $105.00 and FC = $1500.00: A. The firm Shuts Down and hires no workers and loses $1500.00
Eduardwww [97]

Answer: B. The firm hires 45 workers and earns a $1200.00 Economic Profit

Explanation:

According to the table, when the Market Equilibrium Wage Rate is $105, the number of workers to hire would be 45 and the revenue would be $7,425.

If 45 workers are hired, they would cost:

= 45 * 105 per worker

= $4,725

Added to the fixed cost, the total cost would be:

= 4,725 + 1,500

= $6,225

The profit would be:

= Revenue - cost

= 7,425 - 6,225

= $1,200

“In fact, production theory is much simpler than consumption theory because the output of a production process is generally obse
laila [671]

Answer:

The given statement 'In fact,...observable' conveys the idea that <u>it is comparatively convenient and simple to calculate the amount or quantity of goods that are being produced within a firm, territory, or country to determine the economic worth directly</u>. On the other hand, estimating the amount or quantity of goods consumed by the people across a region or country is difficult and can not be observed directly. However, the latter is given more significance and determined more usually through calculating the expenditure made by the consumers depending on their choices and within their income constraints and these are the primary factors that affect the economic growth or development while the production theory lays emphasis on the maximization of profit.
