Answer: Production Method
Explanation: Gross domestic product, also known as GDP, calculates the total value of products and sevices that are produced in an economy. This in turn measures the total income of a country.
The method that applies in this scenario is the production method. This method focuses on goods, by looking at its final value after deducting the input costs, also known as intermediate goods. Input costs (or intermediate goods) are the cost of materials that were used to make the final product, i.e. the production costs. Once the input costs are deducted from the total value of the goods , what remains becomes the actual income of the goods, the final cost, which is then added to GDP.
Answer:
Declining unit manufacturing costs while prices can remain high.
Explanation:
A product life cycle can be defined as the stages or phases that a particular product passes through, from the period it was introduced into the market to the period when it is eventually removed from the market.
Generally, there are four (4) stages in the product-life cycle;
1. Introduction.
2. Growth.
3. Maturity.
4. Decline.
Generally, the growth stage is the stage where the product gains acceptance from the consumer and there is a significant increase in demand and sales.
Profit margins tend to peak during the growth stage of the Product Life Cycle. This is due to declining unit manufacturing costs while prices can remain high because the product has been accepted in the market and its unit cost of production is lesser i.e they are manufactured in bulk.
Answer: a different product mix, different total profit.
Explanation:
It should be noted that in a situation whereby constraint is binding and a change with regards to the availability that is within the range exist, this will bring about a change in both the product mix and total profit.
With regards to the question, since the machine hour constraint is binding and the original amount of machine hours available is 200 minutes, and the range of feasibility is from 130 minutes to 300 minutes, then it should be noted that the provision of two additional machine hours will result in a different product mix, different total profit.
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below;
a) The In-house purchasing cost last year is
= Fixed costs + Variable costs
=$85,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order
= $85,000 + 1400 × 15
= $106,000
b)
The outsourcing cost is
Outsourcing cost = Fixed costs +Variable costs
= $100,000 + Total number of purchase orders × cost per order
= $100,000 + 1400 × 5
= $107,000
c) Total number of purchase orders = 1600
In-house purchasing cost = 85,000 + 1600 × $15 = $109000
Outsourcing cost = $100,000 + 1600 × $5 = $108000
Yes, David should outsource as the outsourcing cost is less than the in-house purchasing cost.
Answer:
the two-way flow of communication between a buyer and a seller, designed to influence a person's or group's purchase decision.
Explanation:
Personal sales is, in plain terms, where companies use individuals to market the commodity after interacting with the consumer eye to eye.
