Answer: The correct answer is "a) acquisition".

Explanation: Rachel Watts owns a chain of office supply stores. Over the past three years, Rachel has significantly increased her sales through the outright purchase of additional office supply stores. Rachel is pursuing an <u>acquisition</u> strategy.

Acquisition: this is the growth formula that we can most commonly observe every day in the economic press. It is based on the procurement processes through which a market is accessed through a company that is acquired, with the peculiarity that it is in operation, which eliminates some hidden costs of internal growth.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

C. $0.30/bu

Explanation:

Given that

Cash cost = $1.50/bu

Opportunity cost of labour = $0.30/bu

Opportunity cost of Land = $0.40/bu

Sales from corn = $2.50/bu

Recall that economic profits = Total income - Total expenses - opportunities cost

Therefore

Economic profits = 2.50 - 1.50 - (0.30 + 0.40)

= 2.50 - 1.50 - 0.70

= 0.30

Therefore, economic profits = $0.30/bu

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

She is making a <u>PROGRAMMED DECISION</u> because she always bases the order on current inventory levels, which are accurate and up-to-date?

Explanation:

Programmed decisions are routine decisions that are carried out following established procedures. This type of decisions are made generally without much consideration because they do not include important aspects of the organization's functions. Sometimes they can even be automated specially if they apply to small purchases like office supplies which can be made only by checking the inventory level.
