Answer:
The answer is: A) In a successful purchase, every stage in the process has to happen.
Explanation:
Sometimes we as customers don´t have the time or are unable to follow all the stages in the consumer decision process. Many times it depends on what need we want to satisfy. For instance, if we are hungry or thirsty we might decide to eat at the first restaurant we find. It doesn´t mean we made a bad choice, it simply happened that way because we didn´t have time to research about all the restaurants in the area and then evaluate and decide which one was the best for us. Many daily purchases are part of our daily routine. Imagine how many hours we would spend at a grocery store if we had to follow every step of the process.
On the other hand, if I´m searching for a new house, I will follow steps one through five several times, over and over again until I finally decide which house to buy.
50,000×5=250,000
250,000÷4=625,000
250,000-625.000=375.00
Sum=375.00
Answer:
Explicit costs - $51,000
Explicit costs are those for which a person incurs in actual spending of money. In this case, Christine had to pay $15,000 in wages, and $36,000 in rent ($3,000 x 12). These are expenses that she had to pay money for, and that had to be accounted for in the accounting books, and in the financial statements. These are in other words, explicit costs.
Implicit costs - $40,000
Implicit costs are simply the opportunity costs. An opportunity cost is the cost of the next more valuable alternative when faced with two or more options. No money is paid for this costs. The implicit costs for Christine were the $40,000 that she not receive as wages if she had continued working at a real state firm.
