The option that's least relevant to develop the reward strategy is C. What were the results of the most recent Homelife customer review ratings?

A reward strategy simply means the designing and implementation of reward policies that are vital in supporting the objectives of an organization.

In this case, it's important to know the compensation programs that should be used to reinforce necessary employee behaviors and how well Homelife's current compensation program matches the company's strategic aims.

It should be noted that the results of the most recent Homelife customer review ratings don't matter in the reward strategy.

Suppose you are the manager of a watchmaking firm operating in a competitive market. Your cost of production is given by C = 200
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

1. 20 units

2. $600

Explanation:

1. C = 200 + 2q^{2}

MC = 4q

Price, P = $80

For maximizing profits,

Marginal cost =  Price of the commodity

4q = 80

q = 20 units

C = 200 + 2q^{2}

C = 200 + 2(20)^{2}

         = 200 + 800

         = 1,000

2. Profit = Total revenue - Total cost

             = (Price × Quantity) - TC

             = (80 × 20) - $1,000

             = $1,600 - $1,000

             = $600

3. We know that the firm in the short run will be produce at a point where total revenue is greater than the total variable cost

Average variable cost = variable cost ÷ quantity

                              =\frac{2Q^{2}}{Q}

                                     = 2Q

MC = 4Q

Here,  MC is greater than AVC at any given point.

so in the short run firm will producing short run positive profit.

Bad Boys, Inc. is evaluating its cost of capital. Under consultation, Bad Boys, Inc. expects to issue new debt at par with a cou
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

9.09%

9.327%

Explanation:

For computing the weighted cost of capital first we have to determine the cost of preferred stock, cost of common stock and the after cost of debt is shown below:

The Cost of preferred stock is

= Preferred dividend ÷ market price of preferred stock

= $2.50 ÷ $25

= 10%

The cost of common stock is

= (Expected dividend ÷ market price) + growth rate  

= ($1.50 ÷ $20) + 0.05

= 12.50%

And, the after cost of debt is

= Before cost of debt × (1 - tax rate)

= 0.08 × (1 - 0.35)

= 5.2%

Now the WACC is

= Weightage of debt × cost of debt + (Weightage of preferred stock) × (cost of preferred stock) + (Weightage of  common stock) × (cost of common stock)

= (0.45 × 5.2%) +  (0.05 × 10%) +  (0.50 × 12.5%)

= 2.34 + 0.5 + 6.25

= 9.09%

In the second case, the WACC is

= Weightage of debt × cost of debt + (Weightage of preferred stock) × (cost of preferred stock) + (Weightage of  common stock) × (cost of common stock)

= (0.30 × 5.2%) +  (0.05 × 10%) +  (0.65 × 12.5%)

= 0.702 + 0.5 + 8.125

= 9.327%
