Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

It is given that both Starbucks coffee as well as Dunkin Donuts coffee are both perfect for me. They taste same and the quality of the coffee in both are same. The price of Starbucks coffee is more than the coffee in Dunkin Donuts. As a customer I would prefer the lower cost item i.e. the Dunkin Donuts coffee.

After the pandemic, the price of the Starbucks coffee have increased. But my utility of purchasing coffee from Dunkin Donuts is not changed as the price of the Dunkin Donuts coffee is still the lowest between the two. So I will continue buying coffee from Dunkin Donuts like before. Thus my utility remains unchanged.

Answer:

1. Break even quantity is 18,125 units

2. Cost to make 28,000 units = $ 775,000

3. Total costs to buy 28,000 units = $ 696,000

4. Savings by using low cost option ( buy from outside) $ 79,000

Explanation:

Computation of Break even point

Variable cost to make equipment in house                $ 25 per unit

Cost to purchase the unit from outside                       <u>$ 17 per unit</u>

Differential Cost per unit                                               <u>$ 8 per unit</u>

Fixed costs to be paid to outside supplier                  $ 220,000

Fixed costs to  be incurred in house                            <u>$  75,000</u>          

Incremental fixed costs                                                 $ 145,000

Break even point - Differential in fixed costs / Differential cost per  unit

$ 145,000/ $ 8 =                                                            18,125 units      

Computation of costs to make 28,000 units

Variable costs per unit -  $ 25 per unit

Units to be produced   -  28,000 units

Total Variable costs  $ 25 * 28,000 units                   $ 700,000

Fixed costs                                                                     $ <u> 75,000</u>

Total costs to make 28,000 units                               $ 775,000      

                               

Computation of costs to buy 28,000 units

Variable costs per unit -  $ 17 per unit

Units to be produced   -  28,000 units

Total Variable costs  $ 17 * 28,000 units                    $  476,000

Fixed costs                                                                    $  <u>220,000</u>

Total costs to make 28,000 units                              $ 696,000  

Computation of savings

Buying 28,000 units                                                    $ 775,000

Making 28,000 units                                                   <u>$ 696,000</u>

Savings from buying from outside                              $ 79,000

Westkost [7]

Answer:

<u>Selective Perception </u>

Explanation:

Selective perception refers to a psychological state wherein, an individual perceives and comprehends only that information he/she finds desirable, thereby ignoring the rest of the information during communication.

So, any of the viewpoints or ideas which appear conflicting to one's own are ignored and discarded under such a psychological state.

In the given case, Phoebe got excited during her presentation that she missed out upon hearing customer's questions. In such a state of excitement, her mind only perceived what she desired, thereby ignoring anything which appeared undesirable.

So post providing inappropriate answers, she went on with her presentation , i.e she got carried away in excitement. Such psychological state indicates the operation of selective perception.

Due to impending labor strife over planned layoffs in its Silicon Valley headquarters, a social networking company has decided t
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

putting a halt on the layoffs

Explanation:

This strategy should begin by putting a halt on the layoffs. This should be top priority since the layoffs themselves are the main cause for the criticism that the company is receiving and this criticism is the sole reason as to why its market position and staff productivity has fallen drastically. People think the company is failing and the staff is scared that they will eventually be fired. By stopping layoffs and waiting for a market recovery you give other better options a chance to arise and more efficient strategies to take effect.
