Firstly, you should calculate the prices of your market basket, which basically means multiply all the goods with their prices and then add them together in their respective years. This would give you $260, $440, $690 and $1200 in the years 2010 to 2013 respectively. (follow along by noting everything down)
We see that the base year is 2013, therefore if we want to calculate the inflation rate from 2010 to 2011, we have to calculate their price indices. We do this by dividing the maket basket of our chosen years by the market basket of the base year, therefore the price index of 2010 is $260/$1200, giving us 21.6. The price index of 2011 would be $440/$1200, giving us 36.6. To calculate the inflation rate, you find the difference between your two price indices and divide it by the former year, which would be 36.6 - 21.6 / 21.6 x 100, giving us the inflation rate of 69.2%.

Answer:
The correct answer is Maverick buying.
Explanation:
Maverick, is a wayward, a dissident, a rebel, someone who refuses to abide by the rules or resists joining a group. The term originates from Samuel A. Maverick (1803-1870), a Texas rancher, who refused to mark his cattle.
The "maverick buying", refers to purchases out of contract or channels established by an organization. For example, the Corporate Supply department negotiates a competitive price for certain particular models of laptops with a distributor. Days later, someone from the Human Resources department requests the purchase of a much more expensive model, for which a discount has not been negotiated.
Another example: traveling in an airline and staying in a hotel other than those with which the company has signed agreements.
The impact of bypassing the preferred purchasing channels and systems can vary from operational inefficiency, to missing out on the advantages of corporate contract negotiation, large fines and even jail time.
Answer:
$23,000
Explanation:
current annual sales = 49,000 packs
Selling price of course packs = $14 each
variable cost per pack = $12
Earnings = $75,000
Contribution:
= current annual sales × (Selling price of course packs - variable cost per pack)
= 49,000 packs × ($14 - $12)
= 49,000 packs × $2
= $98,000
Fixed costs of producing the course packs:
= Contribution - Earnings
= $98,000 - $75,000
= $23,000
