Answer:

$14,800

Explanation:

The computation of the selling price of the truck is shown below:

The depreciation expense is

= ($60,000 - $12,000) ÷ 6 years

= $8,000

Now the depreciation for 5.5 years is

= $8,000 × 5.5 years

= $44,000

Now book value is

= $60,000 - $44,000

= $16,000

ANd, finally the selling price of the truck is

= $16,000 - $1,200

= $14,800

During the growth stage of a product life cycle, companies should focus on: a. creating product differentiation. b. increasing o
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Option A Creating Product Differentiation

Explanation:

The reason is that in the growth stage the company must add further features to the product to increase the product life and also capture the additional market share. This will only be possible if we have product differentiation.

The option D says that using anti-competitive strategy will give advantage to companies but this is not true, the reason is that the entrants enter the market when the product is at mature position (Normally). But this is not true in all situations.

So the best option is A

Suppose Juan has three job offers. He can earn $50,000 in Atlanta, GA; $70,000 in Boston, MA; or $100,000 in San Francisco, CA.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>To maximize the purchasing power of his income, Juand should accept the offert of Atlanta, GA.</em></u>

Explanation:

To answer this question you need the <em>comparative costs of living</em> in each of the trhee cities.

In a similar question, you can find the <em>cost of iiving indexes</em> for <em>Atlanta, Boston,</em> and <em>San Francisco</em>. Here is the table:

<em />

<em>                                           Cost of living index</em>

<em>City                                (100 = U.S. City average)</em>

<em>Atlanta, GA                                 98</em>

<em>Boston, MA                               160</em>

<em>San Francisco, CA                   245</em>

Thus, to determine which offer <em>Juan should accept to maximize the purchasing power of his income</em>, divide each income by the cost of living index.

<u>Atlanta, GA:</u>

<u />

  • $50,000/98 = $510.20

<u>Boston, MA</u>

  • $70,000/160 = $437.50

<u>San Francisco, CA</u>

  • $100,000/245 = $408.16

Rank the adjusted earnings in decreasing order:

  • $510.20 > $437.50 > $407.16

Hence, in spite of the nominal earnings in Atlanta are the lowest, the higher cost of living indexes of the other cities, make that the offer from Atlanta the best one.
