Answer:
Option D. After completion of market research, situation analysis, and competitor analysis
Explanation:
The reason is that the company always sets objectives and goals when it analyzes the business environment, the way competitor would react, product demand, etc and all these things come from market research, situation analysis, competitor analysis, position analysis, capability analysis, etc. This gives a clear picture where the organization must head towards. So after completion of these analysis and research, company is able to set goals.
Always remember that the company sets its goals before marketing planning (Option A) and after situation analysis (Option B) because it helps define what number of sales we need which formulates the marketing planning.
Option C is incorrect because strategies are set after the objectives and goals are set because the strategies are always alligned with the objectives and goals.
Option E is incorrect because Goals and Objectives are set always after the SWOT and PESTLE analysis not during these studies.
Here the only only option with broader meaning is option D which also includes the Option A and Option B.
Answer:
The corporation's tax liability is $ 228,820.
Explanation:
To calculate tax liability we first have to find net profit. Detail calculation is given below.
<u><em>Net profit Calculation</em></u>
Sales $ 3,130,000
cost of goods sold and the operating expenses ($ 2,080,000)
Interest expense ( $ 377,000)
Net profit $ 673,000

Income fall under Tax bracket of 34% ($75,001 to $10,000,0000 for corporate tax. No additional surtax will be charged as income do not fall under its net.
Tax liabilty = 673,000 * 34% = $ 228,820
Answer:
The amount of amortization expense each year is $500,000.
Explanation:
This can be calculated as follows:
Patent original cost = $3,000,000
Salvage value after 5 years = $500,000
Number of years to use before selling it = 5 years
Therefore, we have:
Annual amortization expense = (Patent original cost - Salvage value after 5 years) / Number of years to use before selling it = ($3,000,000 - $500,000) / 5 = $500,000
Therefore, the amount of amortization expense each year is $500,000.
