1. Think about all of the many products you can purchase today. Identify one product that currently represents each phase of the

Answer:

Explanation:

We can take a Andriod smartphone as one of the product. Definitely, each unique smartphones including both the high and low-end products represent the four distinct stages of product life cycle. The nature of competition, price, distribution and promotion can be differentiated well among different stages of the life cycle.

As far a competition is concerned, at the introduction phase, the competition will be too high. For the high-end phone coming with unique features (i.e. unique value to the customer) will face less severe competition at this time. As the growth phase comes, the uniqueness will disappear as others will also come out with similar features in their features. As a result, the competition will intensify and will reach the maximum at the maturity of the product.

The pricing strategy at different stages will depend upon the generic strategy of the company. At the introduction stage, if the company is having a differentiation strategy, it usually goes for a premium price. Others, having cost leadership strategy will go for low price. Sometimes the low price is kept initially at a very thin or zero margins just to capture the market share. However, for smartphones, this is very difficult. As competition intensifies in growth and maturity, the price falls. This is the fate generally with most of the Andriod smartphones as their features are not inimitable. Huge discounts in price can be observed for smartphones at their decline phase due to obsolescence of technology.

It has become a trend nowadays to initially distribute the smartphones through an online retail partner where the smartphone manufacturer gives an exclusive right to the retail partner to sell the initial lots. The retailer first books the order and then does the transaction. As the product gets publicity and attains its growth, it is sold in other places such as company outlets, bricks-and-mortar retailers, supermarkets, eStores etc. up to the maturity and decline phase.

As in distribution, the promotion becomes huge by the online retail partner at the introduction phase. The smartphone manufacturer also uses direct marketing, imagery, and social media marketing as primary tools at this phase.

What would a central bank need to do to reverse the effects of a favorable supply shock on inflation? what would its reaction do

denis-greek [22]

A favorable supply shock is a sudden increase in supply that makes the short-run aggregate supply curve (SRAS) shift to the right, average price levels go down and real GDP also shifts to the right. In this case, average price levels go down as shown in the figure below from p1 to p2 SRAS shifts right.

This may make create deflation in an economy and discourage new producers to enter the market, to bring back inflation, the central bank may reduce interest rates and decrease the money supply in the market, and in short, will follow expansionary monetary policy. This will make people demand more and hence as aggregate demand shifts to correct average price levels may again go up. This move will create new jobs in the market as aggregate demand will increase in the short term.

A supply shock is an event that causes unexpected cost increases or production disruptions. This shifts the short-run aggregate supply curve to the left, boosting inflation and lowering real domestic production.

Jenna used the vendor bid analysis .

Option D

<u>Explanation: </u>

Vendor Bid Analysis is the tool of evaluating the proposals received by many suppliers to determine the cost of such a project. This can be done by taking into account the risk provided for project works (through quotations, deals, proposals, etc.).

The buyer's side can take account of documents from existing agreements, meeting qualitative needs, capability and infrastructure, establishing time limits for records, financial capacity, and services when analyzing the offers of a good or service.

This is not an official offer to purchase the property, but rather a public declaration that the seller isn't satisfied with the last offer which is used to keep the deal on track.

Why can the owner of a business withdraw assets from that business for personal use?

<span>Since the business owner, by definition, is the person who controls all those assets and is responsible for them, he/she can take parts of them home if they so choose. This is a way to manage resources, especially if those resources are still useful in some way.</span>
