The options in this question are missing; here is the missing section:
What two types of departmentalization are illustrated in this example?
A. Product and customer
B. Product and geographical
C. Customer and geographical
D. Functional and customer
E. Geographical and functional
The answer to this question is B. Product and geographical
Explanation:
Departmentalization refers to the creation of departments, units, etc. in businesses to better achieve goals and distribute roles and activities. This can be based on location, products, function, etc.
In the case of Spicy Dish, there is a clear geographical departmentalization because this distributor has created units based on location, due to this, the company has a unit in each major geographical region such as North America, Europe, etc. Moreover, this company has created units based on products because in North America they created two different units and each specializes in one of their products (beans/salsa.)

Answer:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for <u>Crystal</u> to choose <u>Right</u>. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Brian chooses <u>Right</u> and Crystal chooses <u>Right</u>.
Explanation:
Given:
Crystal
Left Right
Brian Left 6, 3 6, 4
Right 3, 3 7, 4
A dominant strategy refers to a strategy that makes a player being better off regardless of the choice his opponent in a game.
It can be seen from the payoff matrix above that when Brian plays Left, Crystal chooses Right because 4 > 3. Also, when Brian plays Right, Crystal chooses Right because 4 > 3. The indication of this is that Crystal will always choose Right no matter what Brian chooses. This means that the dominant strategy for Crystal is Right.
On the other hand, when Crystal Chooses Left, Brian will also choose Left because 6 > 3. And when Crystal chooses Right, Brian will also play Right because 7 > 6. This is an indication that Brian does not have any specific strategy that makes him better off. Therefore, Brian does not have a dominant strategy.
Based on the analysis above, we have:
The only dominant strategy in this game is for <u>Crystal</u> to choose <u>Right</u>. The outcome reflecting the unique Nash equilibrium in this game is as follows: Brian chooses <u>Right</u> and Crystal chooses <u>Right</u>.
Answer:
8.5%
Explanation:
we can calculate the company's cost of equity in two different ways:
Re = risk free rate + (beta x market risk premium) = 2.89% + (0.87 x 7.3%) = 9.24%
or
we can use the dividend growth model
P₀ = Div₁ / (Re - g)
Re - g = Div₁ / P₀
Re = Div₁ / P₀ + g
- Div₁ = $3.53 x 1.032 = $3.64296
- P₀ = $68.69
- g = 3.2%
Re = $3.64296/$68.69 + 3.2% = 8.5%
Personally, I would consider the second calculation to be more exact since the market knows better.
