Answer:

we recommnend to buy this bracket

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given tyhat

Buying cost of the machine = $33,000 = x

x_1 = $0.67

And, x_2 = $0.41

Now the break even point is

X = x ÷ (x_1 - x_2)

= $33,000 ÷ ($0.67 - $0.41)

= 126,923 units

Therefore

Probability  (Demand > Break even point)

= 1 - \phi ($126,923 - 100,000) ÷ 10,000

= 1 - \phi (2.69)

= 0.36%

where

\phi = function of cumulative distribution of N (0,1)

Therefore the probability is that it makes economically the items would be lesser

Thus, we recommnend to buy this bracket

Tasya [4]

Answer:

b. When there is a lack of importance of the buyer to the supplier group

Explanation:

According to Porter there are five forces that can cause rivalry in a production industry. These are supplier power, threat of new entrants, buyer power, threat of substitutes, and degree of rivalry.

Supplier power is when suppliers are able to benefit from the producers by increasing prices of inputs and gaining some industry profit. Since suppliers supply input and labour to the producer they have a greater control of there is lack of importance of the buyer to the supplier group.

This means that the supplier group has more control on price and quality it supplies to the buyer with buyer having little choice but to buy.

If however buyer is more important to the supplier it means they can control price and quality of inputs
