Answer: introduce more differentiation
Explanation: Product differentiation is a method of using various tactics to make a product stand out from the rest of the similar products sold by a competitor, in an effort to make it more appealing to its customer base. This means differentiating the product so much, that it will make it more attractive for customers to buy. This can be anything from making the product's packaging more aesthetically appealing, including some form of a bonus/gift for purchasing the product (like getting a free toy in each cereal box) etc. In the end by applying product differentiation the one company will increase the customer benefits of purchasing this product from them, hereby gaining a competitive advantage over the other company.
Answer:
Second National Bank
Present value (PV) = $5,400
Future value (FV) = $13,900
Interest rate (r) = 10% = 0.10
FV = PV(1 + r)n
$13,900 = $5,400(1 + 0.10)n
<u>$13,900</u> = (1.10)n
$5,400
2.574074074 = (1.10)n
Log 2.574074074 = n log 1.10
<u>Log 2.574074074</u> = n
Log 1.10
n = 9.9 years
None of the answers is correct
Explanation:
In this case, we will apply the formula of future value of a lump sum. The present value, interest rate and future value were provided with the exception of number of years. Thus, the number of years becomes the subject of the formula. The future value equals present value, multiplied by 1 plus interest rate, raised to power number of years.
Answer:
$20.38 buy
Explanation:
The computation of present value is shown below:-
Fair Value according to Gordon Model = Expected Div ÷ (Required Return - Growth rate)
= $1.63 ÷ (10.5% - 2.5%)
= $1.63 ÷ 8%
= $20.38
Fair Price = $ 20.38 and Actual Price = $18.00
As Fair Price is greater than the Actual Price so, the stock is under priced. Therefore advice to buy.
