. A tomato farmer has used direct distribution to sell to local consumers through an area farmers' market. Last year, she sold 4

00 bushels of tomatoes at $2.49 a pound. (There are 53 pounds in a bushel of tomatoes.) This year she is considering using an indirect channel by selling to two area supermarkets. She estimates that she can sell 650 bushels at $1.63 a pound. What will be the difference in revenue if she makes the change? What other factors should the farmer consider before changing to indirect distribution?

Answer:

the farmer's total revenue when she uses the direct channel = 400 x $2.49 = $996

if she uses the indirect channel, her total revenue = 650 x $1.63 = $1,059.50

her total revenue will increase when selling to he supermarkets, but also her variable production costs will increase. This means that it is probable that her total contribution margin decreases even if total revenue decreases.

Should a firm change its positioning depending on the market? What are the potential advantages and disadvantages of doing this?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

In simple words, In comparison to competitors, market positioning refers to the capacity to impact customer perceptions of a brand or commodity. The purpose of market placement is to establish a brand's or product's image or character so that people view it with a certain aim in mind.

Effective sales promotion has the best characteristic of being able to provide a competitive edge. As a result, if a corporation can position its services as particularly important, competitors will believe it will be difficult to make a strong case for acquiring alternatives.

Which of the following statements are true? Check all that apply. In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding. In t
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

<em>1.  In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding : </em><em>FALSE</em>

<em>2. In the absence of price controls, a shortage puts upward pressure on wages until they rise to the equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

<em>3. If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

<em>4. Binding minimum wages cause frictional unemployment : </em><em>FALSE</em>

Explanation:

<em><u>Question has been attached here</u></em>

Unemployment is the term used to define those who are willing and are actively seeking work but cannot find any. A minimum wage is a price control, in the form of a price floor imposed by government legislation in order to protect laborers from low wages. Paying anything below the minimum wage is against the law.

<em>1. In this labor market, a minimum wage of $9.00 is binding : </em><em>FALSE</em>

A minimum wage is binding only if it is set above the equilibrium price. In this scenario, the equilibrium price is at $12. Hence, $9 is not binding since a shortage of labor would gradually raise the price to the equilibrium.

<em>2. In the absence of price controls, a shortage puts upward pressure on wages until they rise to the equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

When there is a shortage in the market, it means that the quantity supplied is higher than the quantity demanded. With any particular commodity such as bread or rice, a shortage creates a rise in price. Just as that, a shortage of workers creates an upward pressure on the price (wage). Since there are no price ceilings, market will reach equilibrium.

<em>3. If the minimum wage is set at $12.50, the market will not reach equilibrium : </em><em>TRUE</em>

As shown in the diagram, the market equilibrium is $12. If the minimum wage was $12.50, there would be a surplus of labor (quantity supplied is higher than quantity demanded). Naturally, this may cause a downward pressure on wages until it reaches $12. However, when a minimum wage is imposed at $12.50, it cannot fall below that level. Thus, the market will not reach the equilibrium.

<em>4. Binding minimum wages cause frictional unemployment : </em><em>FALSE</em>

Frictional unemployment is a type of unemployment that occurs when workers are temporarily unemployed while switching between jobs. It is normal and occurs even in the healthiest of economies. A binding minimum wage is more likely to cause structural unemployment. This occurs when there is a mismatch between the skills of the labor force and the skills expected to be possessed by employers to do a particular job. Hence, even if jobs are available, the laborers are not suited to do them and thus are unemployed.

Wims, Inc., has current assets of $5,000, net fixed assets of $23,300, current liabilities of $4,450, and long-term debt of $11,
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

a). $12,850  b.) 550

Explanation:

a). Shareholder equity

The shareholder equity consists of the shareholder capital contributions plus the retained earnings. calculating the shareholder's equity is through the formula shareholder equity = total assets -total liabilities

In this case,

Total assets = $5,000,+ $23,300= $28,300

Total liabilities = $4,450 + $11,000 + $15,450

Shareholder equity = $28,300 -$15,450 = $12,850

b). Net working capital

Net working capital is the difference between current assets and current liabilities. i.e., net working capital is current assets - current liabilities

current asset = $5000

Current liabilities = $ 4,450

Net working capital; = $5,000 - $4,450= $550
