Murrr4er [49]

Switching costs, number of buyers, and if the items represent a relatively small portion of the cost of finished products are key considerations regarding the bargaining power of buyers.

Switching costs are the costs which are paid by a consumer as a result of switching brands, suppliers, or products. Some companies may employ high switching costs in order to prevent customers from moving to another brand.

Suppose if the customer purchases large volumes of standardized products from the seller, then the buyer's bargaining power is quite high.  Also, when substitute of a product is available in the market, the buyer power increases.

Hence, most prevailing switching costs are monetary in nature.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

c. $154,000.

Explanation:

According to the difference value technique, the average difference between audited value and book value for the sample should be replicated for the whole population of 4,000 accounts. The average difference per account is:

D=\frac{\$3,800-\$3,700}{100}\\D=\$1

This means that the audited value is $1 greater than the book value for each account, assuming 4,000 accounts with a book value of $150,000, the audited value is:

A = \$150,000+\$1*4,000\\A=\$154,000

Estimated total audited value of the population is: c. $154,000.
