The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows,
The Waverly Company has budgeted sales for the year as follows:
Quarter sales in unit
1=12,000
2=14,000
3=18,000
4=16,000
The ending inventory of finished goods for each quarter should equal 25% of the next quarter's budgeted sales in units. The finished goods inventory at the start of the year is 3,000 units. Scheduled production for the second quarter (in units) is:
a.17,500 units.
b.16,500 units.
c.15,000 units.
d.13,000 units.
Answer:
Production = 15000 Units
Option C is the correct answer
Explanation:
To calculate the scheduled production for the second quarter, we first need to find the opening and ending inventory for the third quarter. The ending inventory for each quarter will become the opening inventory for next quarter. It is mentioned in the question that the ending inventory in each quarter is equal to 25% of the next quarter's budgeted sales. Then,
Ending Inventory First Quarter = 0.25 * 14000 = 3500 units
Ending Inventory Second Quarter = 0.25 * 18000 = 4500 units
The production of units in second quarter can be calculated as follows,
Budgeted Sales = Opening Inventory + Production - Closing Inventory
14000 = 3500 + Production - 4500
14000 + 4500 - 3500 = Production
Production = 15000 Units
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "B": predatory pricing.
Explanation:
Predatory pricing refers to companies setting prices below the average level in an attempt to wipe out competition. In the beginning, consumers may benefit from the low prices but after the competition has disappeared, the predatory company raises the prices, but, in this scenario, consumers do not have substitutes from where to choose. The predatory company became a monopoly.
Predatory pricing practices are forbidden by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in the U.S.
