B) make low-profit customers more profitable
C) enhance the growth potential for each customer through cross-selling
D) increase the longevity of the customer relationship
E) focus disproportionate effort on high-value customers
Answer:
B) make low-profit customers more profitable
Explanation:
Many banks and phone companies now charge fees for once-free services to ensure minimum customer revenue levels. This helps the banks to make low profit customers more profitable.
The basic logic behind this strategy is that when customers find something coming free, then they start taking it for granted, they don't pay much attention to it, therefore, when the some services are free, customers will not be spending much on them, like upgrading, monthly plan up-gradations, monthly or annual subscriptions. Consequently, to turn the those customers into highly valuable customers, companies charge for the services which were free of cost in the past.
Answer:
The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
Italy and Sweden both produce jeans and stained glass.
Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pane of stained glass
= 4 pairs of jeans
Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pane of stained glass
= 10 pairs of jeans
Since Italy has a lower opportunity cost of producing glass, so we can say that it has a comparative advantage in the production of glass.
Italy's opportunity cost of producing a pair of jeans
= 
= 0.25
Sweden's opportunity cost of producing a pair of jeans
= 
= 0.1
Sweden has a lower opportunity cost in the production of jeans, so it has a comparative advantage in the production of jeans.
So, Italy will produce and export glass and Sweden will produce and export jeans.
Both the countries will gain from trade if the trade price lies between their opportunity cost.
So the trade price will be 8 pairs of jeans per pane of stained glass.
Answer:
$20,000
Explanation:
For computing the Doug withdrawal amount, first, we have to compute the net income or net loss which is shown below:
Net income/loss = Revenue - expense
= $350,000 - $380,000
= -$30,000
Now Doug share in net loss = Net loss × (his share ÷ total share)
= - $30,000 × (2 ÷ 6)
= - $10,000
We knew that the Doug capital is $30,000 and his share in loss is $10,000
So, its withdrawal amount = $30,000 - $10,000 = $20,000
