A pre-sweetened breakfast cereal would most likely be in the DECLINE stage of the product life cycle.
At the decline stage of a product like cycle, the number of product sold usually drop significantly, because of this, manufacturers usually look for a mean of modifying their product so that the consumers will continue buying it. For instance, a cereal manufacturer may decide to add sugar to his product so that it will continue to be bought by the consumers.<span />

The slope of the _________________ is determined by the relative price of the two goods, which is calculated by taking the price

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

BUDGET LINE

Explanation:

Budget Line is graphical representation of product combinations that a consumer can buy, given product prices & income (all spent)

It is downward sloping because of inverse relationship between goods - one good's consumption has to be decreased to increase other good's consumption, given same prices & income.

Budget Line Equation : x.px + y.py = m

[x = quantity of good x, px = price of good x, y = y good quantity, py = good y price, m = money income].

Slope of Budget line is : Amount of a good sacrifised to attain the other good, given same prices & income. The sacrifise ratio gets derived from the price ratios of the two goods.

Budget Line Slope = ΔY / ΔX = PX / PY

Explanation:

We need to calculate the net present value of the cash flows to determine the IRR.

NPV = PV of Cash inflows - PV of Cash outflows

As the cash inflow and outflow are fixed for specific period of time so, we will use the annuity formula to calculate the NPV.

NPV = [ $5,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 18% )^-5) /18% ] - [ ( $4,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 18% )^-12) /18%) x ( 1 + 18%)^-6 ]

NPV = $15,636 - $7,102 = $8,534

We need NPV on a higher rate of 10%

NPV = [ $5,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 10% )^-5) /10% ] - [ ( $4,000 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 10% )^-12) /10%) x ( 1 + 10%)^-6 ]

NPV = $18,954 - $15,385 = $3,569

IRR = Lower rate + [ Lower rate NPV / (Lower rate NPV - Higher rate NPV) ] (higher rate - lower rate)

IRR = 10% + [ 3,569 / ($3,569 - $8,534) ] (18% - 10%)

IRR = 4.25%

Frito-lay's sunchips line of snack foods uses solar power at one of its eight production facilities to harness the sun's energy

Leno4ka [110]

The answer to the blank space is green-oriented.

Green-oriented products are also known as environmental-friendly products, which means either the product is created from raw materials that will not cause harm upon use or disposal to the environment, or that the product is created through a process that does not impact the environment in a harmful manner.

In the Frito-Lay’s case of snack food manufacturing, it is clear that this is the second type of environmental-friendly product, since the product is partially produced using solar power which leads to less harmful pollution for the environment.
