The federal reserve is the central bank of the United States of America. It is considered as an independent bank because it does not need permission from the President to make transactions. Moreover, it does not benefit from the Congress' budget. The federal reserve only gives emergency loans to commercial banks during times of crisis to prevent bankruptcy.
Answer:
The fixed cost at any level of activity is $48,000 while the variable cost per unit at any level of activity is $1.30
Explanation:
The total cost is a function of the fixed and variable cost. Whilst the fixed cost does not change at a certain range of activities level, the variable cost changes as the level of activities(units produced or sold).
Using the high and low levels of activities given, let the variable cost per unit be v and the fixed cost F
for the high level,
F + 90,000v = 165,000
For the low level
F + 40,000v = 100,00
Solving both equations simultaneously,
50,000v = 65,000
v = $1.30
F + 40,000($1.30) = 100,000
F = 100,000 - 52,000
F = $48,000
Answer: Has competitively valuable value chain match-ups with the company's present businesses such that its businesses can perform better together than apart.
Explanation:
The better-off test of diversification is that the company must gain a return that is higher than incremental growth. Incremental growth is usually defined a 1 + 1 = 2 formula and this test argues that Diversification must provide more than this such that the company achieves synergistic growth ( 1 + 1 = 3) which is what happens when different entities work better together than alone.
Diversification should therefore be into an area that will be able to match-up with the company's present businesses such that its businesses can perform better together than apart and produce even greater returns.
