Answer:
predetermined overhead rate: 14.51 dollars per labor hour
applied overhead at 18,500 hours: 268,435 dollars

B) make low-profit customers more profitable
C) enhance the growth potential for each customer through cross-selling
D) increase the longevity of the customer relationship
E) focus disproportionate effort on high-value customers
Answer:
B) make low-profit customers more profitable
Explanation:
Many banks and phone companies now charge fees for once-free services to ensure minimum customer revenue levels. This helps the banks to make low profit customers more profitable.
The basic logic behind this strategy is that when customers find something coming free, then they start taking it for granted, they don't pay much attention to it, therefore, when the some services are free, customers will not be spending much on them, like upgrading, monthly plan up-gradations, monthly or annual subscriptions. Consequently, to turn the those customers into highly valuable customers, companies charge for the services which were free of cost in the past.

Answer:
B) Children’s clothing only
Explanation:
cost of the expansion $148,000
three mutually exclusive projects:
- NPV $221,000 for children’s clothing ≥ $148,000 (initial investment)
- NPV $178,000 for exclusive gifts ≥ $148,000 initial investment
- NPV $145,000 for decorator items ≤ $148,000 initial investment
The projects whose NPV is positive should be considered (this eliminates decorator items)
Since the projects are mutually exclusive, only one can be chosen. So the project with the highest NPV is the best project for the store ⇒ children's clothing
