Answer:

Acquisition of new technology products and services

Explanation:

In order to remain relevant, keep with the times and perform better than competitors in pleasing customers, businesses need to have competitive advantage.

Regarding the question above, the first banks to implement the use of ATMs, online services and electronic statements would have had competitive advantage over their competitors. Therefore, other banks would have quickly followed suit and implemented modern business operations in order to remain in business.

Failure to do this could result in the demise of the business.

b)   PINA should accept the order because it will increase its net income by $692

<em />

Explanation:

The relevant cash flows for decision to accept or reject the special order are

I. the incremental contribution from of producing 5,350 units

2. The incremental fixed cost- 45,374

Note that whether or not the special order is accepted the fixed cost of manufacturing  would be incurred either way.

Contribution per unit =Selling price - Variable cost

Variable production cost per unit = total variable cost / units

                                  = (10,945 + 29651 + 21094)/19,900

                                     =$3.1

Variable cost per unit of sale = $3.1 + $0.35 =  $3.45

a) Incremental Analysis

<em>Change in Net Income:                               $</em>

I<em>ncremental contribution :</em>

( 4.77 - 3.45) ×   5,350 =                           7,062

<em>Increase in Fixed cost</em> :

(45,374 - 39,004)                                     <u>(  6370)</u>

<em>Net income                                               </em><em><u>   692</u></em>

adell [148]

Answer:

Contract

A study of an association between which ear is used for cell phone calls and whether the subject is​ left-handed or​ right-hande
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

14.34%

Explanation:

To find the percentage of returned surveys over the total we divide and then multiply:

(717/5000)*100= 14.34%

The response rate appears to be low because it is less than 50% (which would be 2500 return surveys). Some statistical studies agree that 30 is the minimum number of observations a study must have, but this number does not ensure statistically significant results.  

The problem with a very low response rate is that survey´s answers does not significant represent the study population characteristics and so we cannot make inferences, correlations or regressions that are statistically significant. In this case, the conclusions that scientists make about association between the left-handed population and right-handed population with the use of cell phone calls could be wrong or not represent the population characteristics, which means answers are not trustful.
