Answer: This question lacks the following answers:
a. market share pricing
b. profit maximization
c. demand orientation
d. sales maximization
<u>The correct answer is b)</u>
Explanation:
The practice of giving away free things (mobile accessories) can be good after the launch of a new product range, or even when the company itself is entirely new. However, it is not feasible in the long run, as the company <u>does not generate profit</u> from giving products for free.
Giving discounts is definitely more lucrative, as the discount itself provides enough of an incentive for the customer to buy the accessory. On the company side, <em>profit </em>will be generated (although decreased with the discount, but still generated compared to giving free things).
Answer:
scarcity.
Explanation:
Scarcity can be defined as an economical problem that gives the relationship between non-renewable (limited) resources and the limitless wants and needs of consumers.
Basically, it's very important that producers of goods and services make decisions that would help them on how to efficiently allocate scarce or limited resources, in order to meet the unending requirements, wants and needs of consumers.
In Economics, an example of scarcity is that most of the resources used for the manufacturing of finished goods and services are nonrenewable, and as a result, the wants and needs of the end users or consumers are limited. Thus, economists would advise that economies should decide on what to produce, how to produce, when to produce and for whom to produce due to the finite and limited nature of resources i.e the concept of scarcity.
Answer:
the depreciation expense recorded is $680
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense under the straight-line method is shown below:
= (Purchase cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated life)
= ($17,500 - $1,180) ÷ ( 4 years)
= $4,080
Now the 2 months depreciation is i.e. from November to December
= $4,080 × 2 months ÷ 12 months
= $680
Hence, the depreciation expense recorded is $680
Answer:
When doing time trend analysis for financial ratios we can know how a company's ratio's have changed over time or if they have remained the same, so for example if a company's current ratio was less than 1 a year ago and is 3 now it means that the company was not very liquid a year ago but since then has made changes because of which it is liquid now, so we can see how a company has performed over a certain period of time.
On the other hand peer group analysis tells us how a company is performing compared to other companies in the same industry. For example if our cement company has a profit margin of 7% but the industry average is 15% we know that our company is doing something wrong or different as compared to the industry and we can look into it.
Explanation:
Answer:
Total $53.0656 (millions)
Explanation:
We will need to add the present value of the coupon payment
and the present value of the maturity date
<u>present value of the annuity:</u>
C= 60 million x 5% /2 1.5
time= 20 years 2 payment per year = 40
rate = 6% annual = 0.06/2 = 0.03 semiannually
PV $34.6722
<u>present value of the bonds:</u>
Maturity 60
time 40
rate 0.03
PV $18.3934
<u>The value of the bond will be the sum of both</u>
PV c $34.6722
PV m $18.3934
Total $53.0656
