Answer:
Option A; INCREASED COMPETITION FROM IMITATORS.
Explanation:
Innovation occurs only when something is entirely new, having never been done before. Innovation also exist when something which may have been done elsewhere is done for the first time in a given industry.
On the other hand, when other competitors in the same industry subsequently copy the innovator, even though it is something new for them, then it is imitation.
When a company comes out with a new product, its competitors typically go on the defensive, doing whatever they can to reduce the odds that the offering will eat into their sales. Responses might include: cranking up marketing efforts, offering discounts to channel partners and even lobbying for regulations that would hinder the rival's expansion.
Therefore, Lilypad's managers should prepare for INCREASED COMPETITION FROM IMITATORS next.

Answer:
$4,292,699.99
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much in new fixed assets are required to support this growth in sales
Full capacity sales = $800,000/0.95 = $842,105.26
Capital intensity ratio = $480,000/ $842,105.26 = 0.57000000
Fixed asset need = ($890,000 × 0.57000000) - $480,000 = $4,292,699.99
Answer:
The Required Return is 10.82%.
Explanation:
The Dividends Model for the Constant Growth is given below:
P0 = D1 / (Ke - g)
Arranging the above equation for "Ke", that is the Required Return:
⇒ Ke = (D1 / P0) + g
Putting Values and we get:
Required Return = Ke = (2.34 / 37) + .045 = .1082 = 10.82%.
