Answer: it would be too large of an unnecessary expense

There are different resources or factors of production needed by the company. Human capital and physical capital like faster computers are some of them. Buying new computers for all workers will really increase productivity but it would be too large of an unnecessary expense if their specific jobs do not require them and also computers become obsolete in 3 years time.

QUICKEST AND BEST ANSWER GETS A FOLLOW AND BRAINLIEST

Back in 2015, McDonald’s was struggling. In Europe, sales were down 1.4% across the previous 6 years; 3.3% down in the US and almost 10% down across Africa and the Middle East. There were a myriad of challenges to overcome. Rising expectations of customer experience, new standards of convenience, weak in-store technology, a sprawling menu, a PR-bruised brand and questionable ingredients to name but a few.

McDonald’s are the original fast-food innovators; creating a level of standardisation that is quite frankly, remarkable. Buy a Big Mac in Beijing and it’ll taste the same as in Stratford-Upon Avon.

So when you’ve optimised product delivery, supply chain and flavour experience to such an incredible degree — how do you increase bottom line growth? It’s not going to come from making the Big Mac cheaper to produce — you’ve already turned those stones over (multiple times).

The answer of course, is to drive purchase frequency and increase margins through new products.
Numerous studies have shown that no matter what options are available, people tend to stick with the default options and choices they’ve made habitually. This is even more true when someone faces a broad selection of choices. We try to mitigate the risk of buyers remorse by sticking with the choices we know are ‘safe’.

McDonald’s has a uniquely pervasive presence in modern life with many of us having developed a pattern of ordering behaviour over the course of our lives (from Happy Meals to hangover cures). This creates a unique, and less cited, challenge for McDonald’s’ reinvention: how do you break people out of the default buying behaviours they’ve developed over decades?


In its simplest sense, the new format is designed to improve customer experience, which will in turn drive frequency and a shift in buying behaviour (for some) towards higher margin items. The most important shift in buying patterns is to drive reappraisal of the Signature range to make sure they maximise potential spend from those customers who can afford, and want, a more premium experience.

Franklin Electric is presently generating earnings available to common shareholders of​ $7.25 per share. The​ firm's income tax
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$1.45

Explanation:

First of all we need to know what is earnings available to common shareholders (EACS).

EACS is the part of earnings which is available to common shareholders after deducting preference dividend from net income after taxes.

We can understand the as follows

Net Profit after taxes $ xxxx

Less: Preference dividend (xxxx)

Earnings available to.common shareholders xxxx

From this amount is we divide number of common stocks / shares, we will get Earnings Per Share (EPS)

EPS = Earnings available to equity shareholders / number of common stock shares

Dividend Payout Ration to common stock (given) = 20%

It means the comapny is paying 20% of EPS to common stock holders and 80% of EPS is tthe retained earnings of the company

Hence dividend to common stockholder = Earnings available.to common shareholders × dividend payout ratio

= $7.25 × 20%

= $1.45

$1.45 is the dividend which company pay to common shareholders
