Answer:
b. 253,589
Explanation:
According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,
Present value of lease payment = $3,335,888
Payment in 2021 = $800,000
Interest rate = 10%
So, we can calculate the interest expense by using following formula,
Interest expense = (Present value of lease payment - Payment in 2021 ) × interest rate
Interest expense = ($3,335,888 - $800,000) × 10%
= $2,535,888 × 10%
= $253,588.8 or $253,589
In 2021, Pine should record interest expense of $253,589
Answer and Explanation:
The journal entry to record the purchase is shown below;
Materials (510 units × $18) $9,180
To Accounts payable $9,180
(To record the purchases)
Here the material is debited as it increased the assets and credited the account payable as it also increased the liabilities
Therefore the above journal entry should be passed
Answer:
The 4Ps are Product, Pricing, Promotion, Place.
Explanation:
Thinking about it carefully, one would note that there is really nothing to contrast between the value approach which is Creating, Communicating, Delivering and Exchanging Value.
Let's make the comparisons:
- Products and Services are Created. It's impossible to have a product or service that is not created.
The inherent quality of a Utility or Product or Service is that they are value which is Created. So in describing the marketing approach, one can use both interchangeably.
- Pricing vs Exchanging Value
Again there is a parallel here. Price is the value you have put on your product or service. Without price, it's difficult to exchange value. Again in the marketing process/approach, it's difficult to separate the two. In both approaches, pricing and Exchanging Value as steps in the marketing approach can be used interchangeably.
- Communicating vs Promotion
This is also another parallel. Promotion is simply another way to communicate the value of your product. Both are really not different.
- Delivering Value vs Place
Place under the 4 Ps approach speaks to the location where the product is delivered. Again it's clear to see that both cannot be separated.
In conclusion, assuming all factors are the same and held constant between two companies A and B, if company A follows the 4Ps approach and company B follows the Value approach, they are most likely to arrive at the same results.
Cheers!
Explanation:
Let’s explore one by one as proposed:
An oil cartel raises oil prices: all prices in the oil-related products will increase making it more expensive for companies to be able to afford employees. As the US economy is heavily based on oil import and consumption, the unemployment rate (let´s call it UR from now on) would increase. Countries that export more than import could benefit from this scenario.
The U.S. dollar gains value against foreign currencies: It would be more expensive to produce goods in the US as its currency becomes stronger. Hence companies could choose to produce overseas, increasing the UR. One of the factors that attract investments is a cheap currency, meaning that a company could operate there at lower costs than anywhere else.
American consumers expect higher income in the future: As fights about average salary would arise between employees and companies, igniting even sindicalization, its proper to think that the same as above could occur; companies could choose to produce overseas in countries less demanding of labor rights and income, such as China provinces (I would recommend for you to watch American Factory, a awarded Netflix documentary about that subject).
Brazil experiences economic growth and increases its demand for U.S. exports: as I said in the first alternative, a country that has increased or more expensive exports could benefit from that creating more jobs, in this case decreasing the UR. If Brazil demands more US products, more has to be produced by the country, which would mean more people employed in this attractive sector.
U.S. real estate values rise: to be honest, it only affects indirectly. As housing becomes more expensive, people have to work more to be able to afford housing. That would mean they seeking better-paying jobs or in the absence of those being homeless of at least unable to buy a home. We could argue that the UR would decrease because it becomes more expensive to afford housing and hence people would migrate more but that’s a long shot rationale.
Answer:
A. $ 3,750,000
Explanation:
Given that
At lower price
A copy is $3
Copies sold = 1.25 million
Recall that
Total revenue = Price of good × quantity of goods sold.
That is, the total amount of money a seller obtains by selling goods or/and services to a buyer(s)
Thus
Total revenue at low cost
= 3 × 1.25 million
= 3.75 million
= $3,750,000
