D
Explanation:
The bargaining strength of suppliers is one of Porters five forces. The higher the bargaining power, the less attractive a segment is as companies would not have less power to negotiate prices for their supplies.
Bargaining power would be lower where there are less number of suppliers. This is the case with oil companies that have to purchase their oil from OPEC. They have no choice but to buy from OPEC. If OPEC increases oil prices, oil companies don't have the option of buying from another supplier
How are consumer demand and business-to-business demand of goods and services related?
Answer:
A small increase or decrease in consumer demand can produce a much larger change in demand for the goods and services (raw materials, supplies and services, installations, accessory equipments) needed to make the consumer product.
Explanation:
The business-to-business demand of goods and services related tends to be more unstable than the consumer demand of goods and services. A small increase or decrease in consumer demand can produce a much larger change in demand for the goods and services (raw materials, supplies and services, installations, accessory equipments) needed to make the consumer product.

The grocery industry has an annual inventory turnover of about times. Organic Grocers, Inc., had a cost of goods sold last year of $; its average inventory was $. What was Organic Grocers' inventory turnover, and how does that performance compare with that of the industry? a) What was Organic Grocers' inventory turnover? nothing times per year (round your response to two decimal places). b) How does Organic Grocers' performance compare with that of the industry? It is ▼ the same as worse than better than the industry.
Answer:
Inventory turnover ratio= 10.5 times
Organic Grocers' performance is LOW compare with that of the grocery industry.
Explanation:
Computation of Inventory turnover ratio using this formula
Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory
Let plug in the formula
Inventory turnover ratio = $10.5 /$ 1 .00
Inventory turnover ratio= 10.5 times
Therefore Organic Grocers’s inventory turnover is 10.5 times
Based on the information given about grocery industry we were told that they had annual inventory turnover of 14 times while Organic Grocers’s based on the above calculation inventory turnover is 10.5 times which means that Organic Grocers’s performance is low when compared with grocery industry which had inventory turnover of about 14 times.
Therefore Organic Grocers' performance is LOW compare with that of the grocery industry.
The company has a ball that sells for $25. At present, the ball is manufactured in a small plant that relies heavily on direct labor workers. Thus, variable expenses are high, totaling $15.00 per ball, of which 60% is direct labor cost. Last year, the company sold 36,000 of these balls, with the following results: Sales (36,000 balls) $ 900,000 Variable expenses 540,000 Contribution margin 360,000 Fixed expenses 263,000 Net operating income $ 97,000 Required: 1. Compute (a) last year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls, and (b) the degree of operating leverage at last year’s sales level. 2. Due to an increase in labor rates, the company estimates that next year's variable expenses will increase by $3.00 per ball. If this change takes place and the selling price per ball remains constant at $25.00, what will be next year's CM ratio and the break-even point in balls
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The company has a ball that sells for $25.
Unitary variable cost= $15.00
Fixed expenses 263,000
To calculate the contribution margin ratio, we need to use the following formula:
Contribution margin ratio= contribution margin / selling price
Contribution margin ratio= (25 - 15) / 25
Contribution margin ratio= 0.4
Now, the break-even point in units:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 263,000 / 10
Break-even point in units= 26,300 units
Degree of operating leverage= contribution margin / operating income
Degree of operating leverage= 360,000 / 97,000
Degree of operating leverage= 3.71
If the unitary variable cost increases by $3:
Contribution margin ratio= (25 - 18) / 25
Contribution margin ratio= 0.28
Break-even point in units= 263,000 / 8
Break-even point in units= 32,875
"You wrote a piece of software that does a better job of allowing computers to network than any other program designed for this purpose. A large networking company wants to incorporate your software into its systems and is offering to pay you $516,000 today, plus $516,000 at the end of each of the following six years, for permission to do this. If the appropriate interest rate is 6 percent, what is the present value of the cash flow stream that the company is offering you? (Round factor values to 4 decimal places, e.g. 1.5215 and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25.)"
Answer: $3,053,326.80
Explanation:
Constant payments are annuities so the $516,000 annual payment is one.
Seeing as you will get a payment of $516,000 today, that is the present value of that first payment. The total present value therefore will be that first $516,000 plus the present value of the annuity discounted at 6% for 6 years.
Present value of Annuity = Annuity * Present value interest factor for 6%, 6 years.
= 516,000 * 4.9173
= $2,537,326.80
Present Value of cashflow;
= 516,000 + 2,537,326.80
= $3,053,326.80
You hold bonds issued by the city of Sacramento, California. The interest you earn each year on these bonds a. is not subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a lower interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government. b. is subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a lower interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government. c. is not subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a higher interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government. d. is subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a higher interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government.
Answer: a. is not subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a lower interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government
Explanation:
Federal income taxes are the taxes that are used in the provision of national programs like settling national debt, infrastructural development, national defense, law enforcement etc.
If an individual owns bonds that are issued by the city of Sacramento, California, it should be noted that the interest that is earned each year on these bonds is not subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a lower interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government. Comparable bonds that are being issued by the United States government pay an higher interest.
Describe personal selling. Personal selling is direct communication between a sales representative and one or more prospective buyers in an attempt to influence each other in a purchase situation. Broadly speaking, all businesspeople use personal selling to promote themselves and their ideas. Personal selling offers several advantages over other forms of promotion. Personal selling allows salespeople to thoroughly explain and demonstrate a product. Salespeople have the flexibility to tailor a sales proposal to the needs and preferences of individual customers. Personal selling is more efficient than other forms of promotion because salespeople target qualified prospects and avoid wasting efforts on unlikely buyers. Personal selling affords greater managerial control over promotion costs. Finally, personal selling is the most effective method of closing a sale and producing satisfied customers.
5.1 Discuss the role of personal selling in promoting products. What advantages does personal selling offer over other forms of promotion?
5.2 What are the major advantages of personal selling to the company selling a product? What are the advantages to the person or company buying the product?
Explanation:
5.1 Discuss the role of personal selling in promoting products. What advantages does personal selling offer over other forms of promotion?
Personal selling is a traditional sales method that consists of a more personalized service and a more efficient product promotion compared to other forms of promotion. This is due to the fact that, in a personal sale, there is the direct influence of the seller to explain the functionalities and characteristics of a product, which is usually done using sales and negotiation techniques that directly influence the buyer to feel the need for the product that is being promoted. The advantages of personal selling as opposed to other types of promotion, is the possibility of reducing the time and effort of purchase, since in this type of sale, the seller goes to the customer to offer the product.
5.2 What are the major advantages of personal selling to the company selling a product? What are the advantages to the person or company buying the product?
The biggest advantages of personal selling for the company that sells a product is the greater possibility of having a closed purchase, since the potential sales are made with your potential customers. There is also a decrease with other types of product promotion, which can be costly, such as advertising an advertisement on television, and which may not generate the expected goal of increasing product sales.
The advantages for the person or company that buys the product is the possibility of knowing and seeing the functionality of the product before purchasing and the possibility of negotiating and providing meaningful feedback, which can influence the seller to make the sales proposal more flexible by making it more attractive to the customer. Personal selling also creates value for the customer, as the service is personalized, based on their profile, characteristics, desires and needs.

Based on these data, Razor Inc.'s total contribution margin for next year will be: Group of answer choices $882,000. $980,000. $972,000. $1,080,000.
Answer:
d. $1,080,000
Explanation:
Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - ( Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Variable Manufacturing Overhead + Variable Selling )
Contribution per unit = $160 - ($22 + $15+ $12 + $3)
Contribution per unit = $160 - $52
Contribution per unit = $108 per unit
Contribution margin for the next year = $108 per unit * 10,000
Contribution margin for the next year = $1,080,000

Shares authorized: 290,000. Shares issued: _______ (all shares were issued at $14 per share; $2,170,000 total cash collected). Treasury stock: 5,000 shares (repurchased at $18 per share). The treasury stock was acquired after a stock split was announced. Net income: $297,000. Dividends declared and paid: $165,000. Retained earnings beginning balance: $645,000. Required: 1. Complete the following tabulation: 2. Calculate the balance in the Additional paid-in capital account. 3. What is earnings per share (EPS)
Answer:
1. Required tabulation is the Shares Authorized, the Shares Issued and the Shares Outstanding
Shares Authorized = 290,000 shares
Shares Issued
= Total Cash Collected / Price per share
= 2,170,000 / 14
= 155,000 shares
Shares Outstanding
= Shares Issued - Treasury stock
= 155,000 - 5,000
= 150,000 shares
2. Additional paid in capital account
= Gain (loss) above par
Par value is $10 and Stock was sold for $14
= (14 - 10 ) * 155,000
= $620,000
3. Earnings per share
= Net Income/ Shares outstanding
= 297,000/150,000
= $1.98
as of December 31, 2020, was as follows: Common stock, par value $2; authorized 20,000 shares; issued and outstanding 10,000 shares $ 20,000 Paid-in capital in excess of par 30,000 Retained earnings 85,000 Total Stockholders' Equity $135,000 On March 1, 2021, the board of directors declared a 15% stock dividend, and accordingly 1,500 additional shares were issued. On March 1, 2021, the fair value of the stock was $6 per share. For the two months ended February 28, 2021, Firm ABC sustained a net loss of $15,000. What amount should Firm ABC report as retained earnings as of March 1, 2021
Answer:
$ 61,000
Explanation:
Calculation for the amount that Firm ABC should report as retained earnings as of March 1, 2021
Retained earnings Balance $ 85,000
Less: Shares issued ($9,000)
(1500 *$6 per share)

Consider a budget line drawn with avocados on the vertical axis and tangerines on the horizontal axis. The consumer's income is $100, the price of avocados is $5, and the price of tangerines is $10. Suppose the consumer's income falls to $75.00, but the prices stay the same. The change in income produces a: Group of answer choices parallel shift inward of the indifference curves. new budget line which is steeper than the original one. parallel shift inward of the budget line. new budget line which is flatter than the original one.
Answer:
new budget line which is steeper than the original one.
Explanation:
I drew the both budget lines in order to show the effect of the decrease in income.
The new budget line shifts inward and it is slightly more steep than the original budget line because the consumer can only purchase 7 tangerines, he cannot purchase 7.5. This slight difference makes the slope steeper. The total possible quantity of avocados diminished by 25%, while the total possible quantity of tangerines diminished by 30%.
Video Planet (VP) sells a big screen TV package consisting of a 60-inch plasma TV, a universal remote, and on-site installation by VP staff. The installation includes programming the remote to have the TV interface with other parts of the customer’s home entertainment system. VP concludes that the TV, remote, and installation service are separate performance obligations. VP sells the 60-inch TV separately for $2,090 and sells the remote separately for $270, and offers the entire package for $2,580. VP does not sell the installation service separately. VP is aware that other similar vendors charge $320 for the installation service. VP also estimates that it incurs approximately $270 of compensation and other costs for VP staff to provide the installation service. VP typically charges 50% above cost on similar sales. Required: 1. to 3. Calculate the stand-alone selling price of the installation service using each of the following approaches.
Answer:
1. Adjusted Market Assessment
= $320Here the selling price will be based on what the competitors are charging for the same or a similar service.
As VP competitors are charging $320 for the service, the stand-alone selling price of the installation service will be $320 under this approach.
2. Expected Cost plus Margin
Here the company will add a margin on the expenses and costs it incurs to provide the service.
VP incurs $270 of compensation and other costs for VP staff and typically charges a 50% margin above cost on similar sales.
Selling price = 270 * ( 1 + 50%)
= $4053. Residual
Under this approach, all other components of the package sale are subtracted from the package price and the amount remaining will be the price of the component in question.
= Package - 60-inch TV - remote
= 2,580 - 2,090 - 270

Explanation:
Athlete Kalen wishes to retire at age forty-five and receive annual birthday payments of $40,000 beginning on his forty-fifth birthday. After his death, the payments on the anniversary of his birth should go to his heirs. In order for Kalen to be able to carry out his plan, he makes contributions to a savings account with a guaranteed annual effective interest rate of 4%. How much money will Kalen need to have accumulated at age forty-five, just prior to his first $40,000 birthday payment
Answer:
1,040,000
Explanation:
We can calculate the money will Kalen need to have accumulated at age forty-five by dividing the annual birthday payments by the effective interest.
DATA
Annual birthday payments = A = $40,000
Effective interest = i = 4%
Calculation
Value at age 45 = A / i + Co
Value at age 45 = (40000 / .04) + 40000
Value at age 45 = 1,040,000
Kalen will need to have accumulated money of 1,040,000 at age forty-five, just prior to his first $40,000 birthday payment.

Assume that your stock of sales merchandise is maintained based on the forecast demand. If the distributor's sales personnel call on the first day of each month, compute your forecast sales by each of the three methods requested here. ACTUAL June 135 July 170 August 200 a. Using a simple three-month moving average, what is the forecast for September? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) b. Using a weighted moving average, what is the forecast for September with weights of 0.20, 0.30, and 0.50 for June, July, and August, respectively? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Simple 3 month moving average = 168.33
Weighted moving average = 178
Explanation:
a) Simple 3 month moving average = (W1+W2+W3) / 3
Simple 3 month moving average = (135 + 170 + 200) / 3
Simple 3 month moving average = 168.33
b. Weighted moving average = ((W1 * D1) + (W2 * D2) + (W3 * D3)
Weighted moving average = 135*0.20 + 170*0.30 + 200*0.50
Weighted moving average = 27 + 51 + 100
Weighted moving average = 178
The price elasticity of demand for gizmos is known to be (disregarding the negative sign). If sellers of gizmos increase their prices, total revenue from gizmo sales will
Answer:
C. rise.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as some data are missing. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
The price elasticity of demand for gizmos is known to be 0.2 (disregarding the negative sign). If sellers of gizmos increase their prices, total revenue from gizmo sales will:
A. fall.
B. stay the same.
C. rise.
D. There is not enough information to determine the change in revenue.
The explanation to the answer is now given as follows:
The price elasticity of demand can be described as the degree of responsivess of quantity demanded of a commodity to a change in the price of that commodity.
The price elasticity of demand is calculated as the percentage change in quantity demanded divided by the percentage change in price.
The three major categories of price elasticity of demand and their effect on revenue are as follows:
a. Elastic: Price elasticity of demand is said to be elastic when its absolute value is greater than one (i.e. Ep > 1). This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded is greater than the percentage in price. That is, the quantity demanded is more responsive to any change in price. As there is negative relationship between price and quantity demanded for a normal good, an increase in price will make the percentage fall in the quantity demanded to be higher than the percentage increase in price. This will therefore result in a fall in total revenue.
b. Unitary: Price elasticity of demand is said to be unitary when its absolute value is equal to one (i.e. Ep = 1). This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded is equal the percentage in price. That is, the quantity demanded is equally responsive to any change in price. As there is negative relationship between price and quantity demanded for a normal good, an increase in price will make the percentage fall in the quantity demanded to be equal to the percentage increase in price. This will make the total revenue to remain the same.
c. Inelastic: Price elasticity of demand is said to be inelastic when its absolute value is less than one (i.e. Ep < 1). This implies that the percentage change in quantity demanded is less than the percentage in price. That is, the quantity demanded is less responsive to any change in price. As there is negative relationship between price and quantity demanded for a normal good, an increase in price will make the percentage fall in the quantity demanded to be less than the percentage increase in price. This will therefore result in a rise in total revenue.
Based on the explanation above, the price elasticity of demand for gizmos falls into category c. This implies that it is inelastic because its absolute value of 0.2 is less than 1. Therefore, the correct option is C. rise. That is, total revenue from gizmo sales will rise If sellers of gizmos increase their prices.

A worker age 40 wishes to accumulate a fund for retirement by making deposits of $1000 at the beginning of each year for 25 years. Starting at age 65 the worker retires, and plans to make annual withdrawals of $x at the beginning of each year, for 10 years, at which point the fund will be depleted. Assuming that all payments are certain to be made, find the amount of each withdrawal starting at age 65 to the nearest dollar, if the effective rate of interest is 8% for the first 25 years and 7% thereafter.
Answer:
$10,408.62
Explanation:
annual contribution $1,000
n = 25 years
i = 8%
FV annuity factor, 8%, 25 periods = 73.106
future value = $1,000 x 73.106 = $73,106
annual distribution = PV (at age 65) / PV annuity factor
i = 7%
n = 10

Gael Corporation is comparing two different capital structures, an all-equity plan (Plan I) and a levered plan (Plan II). Under Plan I, the company would have 185,000 shares of stock outstanding. Under Plan II, there would be 135,000 shares of stock outstanding and $2.29 million in debt outstanding. The interest rate on the debt is 5 percent and there are no taxes. Use M&M Proposition I to find the price per share. (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) What is the value of the firm under each of the two proposed plans? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answers to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 32.)
Answer:
The value of firm under both plan is $8,473,000
Explanation:
All equity plan share Outstanding = $185,000
Plan II Number. of shares outstanding = $135,000
Debt = $2,290,000
Price per share = Amount of debt issued/(No of shares in all Equity-no of shares in debt plan)
Price per share = $2,290,000/($185,000 - $135,000)
Price per share = $2,290,000 / $50,000
Price per share =$45.8
Value of firm under Equity plan = Number of shares * Price per share
Value of firm under Equity plan = 185000 shares * $45.8
Value of firm under Equity plan = $8,473,000
Levered plan = (Number of shares*Price per share) + Debt
Levered plan = (135,000 * $45.8) + $2,290,000
Levered plan = $6,183,000 + $2,290,000
Levered plan = $8,473,000
Hence, the value of firm under both plan is $8,473,000

tina is the sole owner of tina's lawn mowing, incorporated (TLM). In one year TLM collects $1,000,000 from customers to mow their lawns. TLM equipment depreciates in value by $125,000. TLM pays $600,000 to its workers who pay $140,000 in taxes on this income. TLM pays $50,000 in corporate income taxes and pays Tina a dividend of $150,000. Tina pays taxes of $60,000 on this dividend income. TLM retains $75,000 of earnings in the business to finance future expansion. How much does this economic activity contribute to each of the following
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
This is the remainder of the question:
How much does this economic activity contribute to GDP, NNP, National income, compensation of employees, Proprietors' Income, corporate profits, personal income, disposable personal income?
a. GDP – $1,000,000
The GDP is the value for the goods and services that a country sells. To loan customers lawns, Tina collects $1,000,000.
b. NNP – $875,000
NNP = GDP - Depreciation
= $1000000 - $125000
= $875000
c. National income – $875,000
d. Compensation of employees- $600,000
This is the amount paid by the company to its workers for work done as wages and salaries.
e. Proprietors’ income – $0
Because it is a Corporation, this will be $0.
f. Corporate profits – $275,000
This will be:
= $50,000 + $150,000 + $75000
= $275000
g. Personal income – $750,000
= NNP + Dividend - Profit
= $875000 + $150000 - $275000
= $750000
h. Disposable personal income – $550000
= $750000 - $60000 - $140000
= $550000
In the fictional country of Dirian the economics statistics department has been busy calculating the price index for a basket of goods from 2013 to 2017. January 2013 is the standardized price index, at 100, for a basket of consumer goods in the country. The price index increased in 2014 to 104.7, in 2015 to 109.3, in 2016 to 113.1, and in 2017 it increased to 119.2. You have been called to the country to help establish the rate of inflation for those years. What are the inflation rates in Dirian for 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017
Answer:
Inflation refers to the general rise in price levels of goods and services in an economy.
[tex]Inflation = \frac{CPI in current year - CPI in previous year}{CPI in current year} *100[/tex]
2014 Inflation;
[tex]Inflation = \frac{104.7 - 100}{100} *100\\= 0.047[/tex]
= 4.7%
2015
[tex]Inflation = \frac{109.3 - 104.7}{104.7} *100\\\\= 0.0439[/tex]
= 4.39%
2016
[tex]Inflation = \frac{113.1 - 109.3}{109.3} *100\\\\= 0.0348[/tex]
= 3.48%
2017
[tex]Inflation = \frac{119.2 - 113.1}{113.1} *100\\\\= 0.0539[/tex]
= 5.39%
