Answer and Explanation:
I will use Apple and HP in this comparison.Here I would compare Apple's laptop to that of Hewlet Packard as this is where they meet in the industry. Apple employs a strategy of differentiation and standing out in competition through their products. They aim to create products that are quite different and unique/innovative from other products in the market, and yet what the customer wants. In doing this, Apple has a trade-off for cost as they charge alot higher for their products than their competitors. HP on the other hand focus on making the best possible products that get the job done/meet the needs of customers while also being affordable. HP is more focused on affordable devices for their market and therefore have a different market segment for laptops from that of Apple. There is a trade-off for cost and market segment in this comparison

$41,400
Explanation:
The computation of the expected collections for July month is shown below:
Expected Cash collection for July = June Credit sales + July Credit sales
where,
June credit sales is
= $27,000 × 40%
= $10,800
And, the July credit sales is
= $51,000 × 60%
= $30,600
So, the expected collections for July month is
= $10,800 + $30,600
= $41,400
Answer:
$2,857
Explanation:
Cost of goods sold (COGS) refers to the relevant cost incurred to acquire or produce the products being sold a company during a particular period.
The formula for calculating the COGS is as follows:
COGS = Beginning inventories + Purchases - Ending inventories
From the question, we have the following for 2012:
Beginning stock = $590
Purchases = $2,770
Ending inventory = 503
Therefore, we have:
COGS for 2012 = $590 + $2,770 - $503 = $2,857
Therefore, Jacob should record $2,857 as Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) on its 2012 income statement.

Explanation:
In this question, we assume the Fred and Wilma divorced in year i.e before 2019. Since in the question, it is given that the Fred paid $6,000 Wilma and $6,000 directly to the Law school Wilma is attending i.e not related to the child

Answer:
a. 1.8716%
b. $13,937.9955
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. For accrued interest
= (Coupon rate ÷ 2) × (Before settlement days ÷ Total settlement days)
= (4.750% ÷ 2) × (145 days ÷ 145 days + 39 days)
= 2.3750% × 0.7880
= 1.8716%
b. Now the dirty price is
= Face value × (accrued interest percentage + current price quoted on the bond)
= $13,000 × (1.8716% + 105.34375%)
= $13,000 × 107.21535%
= $13,937.9955
By applying the above formulas we can get the accrued interest and the dirty price
