The answer is FALSE.

Relationship marketing is much important compared to maintaining databases of customer's information for mass marketing. A good relationship to clients can be a good promotion tool and technique compared to sending them promotional ads via email, SMS and social media sites. A word of a mouth is more powerful and personal compared to digital media. If the reputation of the company is good to some clients, then it will create good impression to other potential clients and to the people they know. If the company has a good impression, good attitude employees with good products, it will surely help to the company's revenue.

Last year Lowell Inc. had a total assets turnover of 1.40 and an equity multiplier of 1.75. Its sales were $295,000 and its net

Answer:

ROE would have changed by 8.52%

Explanation:

First we calculate the current ROE using Dupont Equation which gives ROE as,

ROE = Net Income/Sales * Sales/Total Assets * Total Assets/Equity

ROE = Net Profit Margin * Total Assets Turnover * Equity Multiplier

Current ROE = 10600/295000 * 1.4 * 1.75 = 0.0880 or 8.8%

The condition says that the net income could have increased to 20850 but other factors will remain constant. Thus, to calculate new ROE, we will calculate the new Net Profit margin but the total assets turnover and the equity multiplier will remain constant as sales assets and capital structure is not changing.

New ROE = 20850/295000 * 1.4 * 1.75 = 0.17316 or 17.32%
The ROE would have changed by 17.32 - 8.80 = 8.52%

Why is there an inherent conflict between planning and control uses of budgets?

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The main conflict that results between planning and control use of budgets is that managers might place their own personal interests before the interests of the company. This might result in budgets that are easily achievable (resulting in bonuses) or shifting income from one period to another in order to achieve certain budgets that will result in bonuses.

I will use a real life example that happened to me to explain this. I worked as a B2B sales representative for a large corporation (we were only 2 B2B salespeople + 1 manager) and when sales were slowing down, upper management would set up bonuses for achieving certain sales goals. The problem was that intentionally certain large sales that required management's approval were delayed and total sales would fall. Then suddenly the bonus show sup and all the large sales were approved and in two weeks the sales goals were achieved. Since B2B sales are not about selling to a lot of customers, but instead selling to the right customers a lot of products, a couple of delayed big sales made a huge difference and a 1% bonus meant changing your old car for a new one.

Which of the following statements is true in a capitalist economy?

zepelin [54]

The answer is: b. Markets motivate individual actors to make economic decisions.

In a capitalist economy, the government has very little influence to intervene in the economy. The market is solely controlled by the power of supply and demand. When a lot of people demanded a certain type of products, people who will gain the most profit would be those who are bale to make economic decisions to fulfill the demand in the market.

azamat

Answer:

Division A

If Division A agrees to sell the parts to Division B at $18 per unit, the company as a whole will be:

worse off by $30,000 each period.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Production capacity of Division A = 34,000

Selling price per unit to outside customers = $21

Variable cost per unit = $13

Total fixed costs = $105,800

Order from Division B = 10,000

Price that Division B purchases from outside supplier = $18

Selling to Division B instead of selling to outside customers will result in a loss of $3 ($21 - $18) per unit

The total loss = $30,000 ($3 * 10,000)

You are a very small company that sells healthcare insurance plans. You estimate that the breach of your customer database will

liq [111]

Answer:

Spend $25000 on cyber insurance to transfer the risk

Explanation:

A cyber insurance is the best option since it protects the business from internet based risk such as the breach of customer database and other risks involved in the use of the internet by businesses and individual internet users.

The cost of purchasing a Data Loss Prevention solution that would cost $30000 per year will amount to $150000 in 5 years which will be more expensive compared to the cost of the risk it is been used to prevent. hence it is not a good option. also accepting the risk is a very bad option becasue the risk might harm the business beyond expectation.
