SparkClean is a company that specializes in producing cleaning products for automobiles. In order to promote its products, SparkClean sends a complimentary sample of its products to auto enthusiasts. Which form of marketing is SparkClean involved in?
Answer:
Direct mail marketing
Explanation:
This is a form of marketing technique in which an organization sends out letters, postcards, samples and other form of promotional materials to target market which may compose of past customers, present customers and potential customers needing the products or services they are offering. Seeing that SparkleClean sends complimentary samples to auto enthusiasts, they are using the direct mail marketing technique. There are a lot of promotional materials that can be used in scenarios like this. Apart from letters and postcards, brochures, catalogs, bulletin and so on can be used.
Answer:
direct mail marketing
Explanation:
SparkClean is using direct mail marketing since it is sending a free sample to auto enthusiasts. Generally direct mail marketing involves sending catalogs, brochures, newsletters or small sample products like this case. Before it was very common to receive catalogs by mail.

Now most direct mail marketing efforts have been replaced by emails and catalogs by websites.
Lacey Abrams is the sales representative for the Brook Park Zoo. She sells events, such as wedding receptions, corporate dinners, and fundraisers that are held on zoo grounds. She has just finished negotiating all the details of Anne Mason's upcoming wedding reception and is preparing to close the sale. Which of the following is a signal that Anne is ready to sign the contract to book the reception?
A) She looks at her watch.B) She checks her phone for messages.C) She asks, "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?"D) She asks, "Why don't you offer pre-set desserts?"E) She says, "The country club offers a chocolate fountain at no extra cost."
Answer:
C) She asks, "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?"
Explanation:
Anne asking "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?" is a signal that she is ready to sign the contract to book the reception.
Obviously, Anne Mason would only ask how much is required to put down to reserve a date at the Brook Park Zoo because they had just finished negotiating all the details of her upcoming wedding reception and she's satisfied with the service.
Final answer:
Anne Mason's clear signal of readiness to finalize the wedding reception contract with Lacey Abrams at Brook Park Zoo is when she asks about the deposit required to reserve the date, showing her intention to secure the venue.
Explanation:
A signal that a client is ready to move forward with a purchase or agreement, such as booking a venue for a wedding reception, typically comes in the form of a clear indicator of commitment or preparation to take the next step. In the context of Lacey Abrams, a sales representative for Brook Park Zoo, handling Anne Mason's wedding reception booking, the signal that Anne is ready to sign the contract would likely be an action or a question that directly relates to the finalization of the agreement. Among the options provided, the clear signal of readiness to close the sale is C) where Anne asks, "How much do I need to put down now to reserve the date?" This shows her intention to secure the venue by understanding the financial commitment required at this stage.
Other options, such as checking the phone or inquiring about offerings like pre-set desserts or what competitors offer, are signals that could indicate hesitancy or a need for further clarification, rather than a readiness to conclude the transaction.
average cost retail method to estimate inventories. Data for the first six months of 2021 include: beginning inventory at cost and retail were $64,500 and $123,000, net purchases at cost and retail were $315,000 and $483,000, and sales during the first six months totaled $493,000. The estimated inventory at June 30, 2021, would be:
Answer:
$70,765
Explanation:
cost retail
beginning inventory $64,500 $123,000 52.44%
net purchases $315,000 $483,000 65.22%
sales during the first six months totaled $493,000.
we must first determine the cost of goods sold:
COGS = [(cost beginning inventory + cost net purchases) / (retail beginning inventory + retail net purchases)] x total sales = [($64,500 + $315,000) / ($123,000 + $483,000)] x $493,000 = ($379,500 / $606,000) x $493,000 = $308,735
ending inventory = cost beginning inventory + cost net purchases - COGS = $64,500 + $315,000 - $308,735 = $70,765
Hilary was put on a new team by her manager. Ever since she shifted teams, Hilary has felt energized and motivated toward higher performance because her friends work in the same team.

In this case, Hilary is placed in a team to work with her friend and others which has lead in the improvement of her performance.
The production of rice in the year 2001 was 1000 tones which was 25% of the total food grain production in that year. In the next year if the production of rice decreased by 4% and production of rice as a percentage of total food grain production increased by 5 percentage points, what is the total food grain production in 2002?
Answer:
3200 tonnes
Explanation
Production of rice in 2001 =1000 tonnes
% rice to total production = 25%
Total production =100/25 *1000 = 4000 tonnes
2002 production of rice decrease by 4%
Decrease = 4% * 1000 = 40
Production of rice =960
% production of rice increase by 5% = 25%+5%= 30%
Total food production 100/30*960 =3200 tonnes
Asian noodle company contracts to sell 1,000 cases of rice noodles to beau's bistros, inc., but refuses to deliver. due to a rice shortage, beau's cannot obtain the noodles elsewhere. the buyer's right to recover the goods from the seller is the right of
Answer:
Tender right
Explanation:
Remember, it was mentioned that Asian noodle company entered a contract to sell 1,000 cases of rice noodles to Beau's Bistros inc.
Furthermore, this implies there was a contractual agreement, and according to business law a seller has an obligation to tender the goods requested by a buyer.
Therefore, Beau's Bistros inc can use it's tender right based on the contract to recover the goods from Asian noodle company.
The right to recover goods from a seller who has breached a contract and refuses to deliver is known as the right of replevin. This legal remedy is applicable when Beau's Bistros, Inc. cannot find alternative sources due to a rice shortage.
Explanation:The buyer's right to recover the goods from the seller in a situation where the contract has been breached by the seller is known as the right of replevin. This right allows the purchaser to reclaim goods that were wrongfully withheld from them when alternative sources are not available, as is the case with Beau's Bistros, Inc. unable to obtain rice noodles due to a rice shortage. In legal terms, replevin is a remedy that allows the buyer to recover possession of the goods directly from the seller.
Cost estimates on a long-term contract may indicate that a loss will result on completion of the entire contract. In this case, the entire expected loss should be:__________.
A) recognized in the current period, regardless of whether the percentage-of-completion or completed-
contract method is employed.
B) recognized in the current period under the percentage-of-completion method, but the completed-contract
method defers recognition of the loss to the time when the contract is completed.
C) recognized in the current period under the completed-contract method, but the percentage-of-
completion method defers the loss until the contract is completed.
D) deferred and recognized when the contract is completed, regardless of whether the percentage-of-
completion or completed-contract method is employed.
Answer:
The answer is A.) Recognized in the current period, regardless of whether the percentage-of-completion or completed contract method is employed.
Explanation:
The long -run cost function can be estimated using either time-series cost-output data collected on a plant (or firm) whose size has been variable over time, or cross-sectional cost-output dasta collected on a sample of plants,(firms) of different sizes at a particular point on time.
Answer:
The correct answer here is A)
Here is why.
Explanation:
If it is not recognized in the current period, it may be misleading. A forecast is indicative that a budget has already taken place and that resources have been released.
So even though cost estimates at the end of the incumbent period may indicate that a loss will result once the contract is completed, under the Zero-Profit, Completed- contract and percentage-of-completion methods, the entire loss that is expected on the contract must be recognized in the current period.
Cost estimation in project management speaks to identifying taking cognizance of the cost and other resources needed to finish a project whose purview or extent is properly defined.

Suppose Jane has chosen a combination of two goods, A and B, such that MU/P of good A is 10 (MUA/PA = 10), and the MU/P of good B is 10 (MUB/PB = 10). To increase utility with the same amount of money, Jane should:________.
a) increase the number of B consumed.
b) increase the number of A consumed.
c) increase the number of A and B consumed.
d) do nothing; she cannot increase utility with the same amount of money.
Answer:
Option D.
Explanation:
A rule for maximizing utility is that if an individual wants to maximize total utility, for every dollar that is spent, he/she should spend it on the commodity that yields the greatest marginal utility per dollar of expenditure.
In the scenario presented above, we can see that the marginal utilities per dollar for both commodities that Jane consumes are equal, therefore she can neither increase or decrease spending on any particular commodity in order to increase or decrease its marginal utility, this is because she gets an equal amount of marginal utility from both commodities.
Therefore, with the same amount of money, Jane cannot increase utility.

Milo Co. had 800,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, issued 126,000 shares on May 1, purchased 63,000 shares of treasury stock on September 1, and issued 54,000 shares on November 1. The weighted average shares outstanding for the year isA. 851,000B. 872,000C. 893,000D. 914,000
Answer:
The answer is 872,000
Explanation:
The shares are bought on different dates, so we need to factor this in.
From January 1 to December 31:
800,000 shares(A full year)
From May 1 to December 31:
8/12 x 126,000 shares
=84,000 shares
From September 1 to December 31:
4/12 x 63,000 shares
= 21,000 shares
And from November to December 31;
2/12 x 54,000 shares
9,000 shares.
Therefore, the weighted average shares outstanding for the year is:
800,000 + 84,000 - 21,000 + 9,000 shares
= 872,000
The reason why 21,000 shares was substracted from the rest was because the 63,000 shares was a treasury stock i.e shares buy back and treasury stock reduces number of outstanding shares
Final answer:
To calculate the weighted average shares outstanding for the year for Milo Co., consider the shares issued and repurchased at different times throughout the year.
Explanation:
Milo Co. had 800,000 shares of common stock outstanding on January 1, issued 126,000 shares on May 1, purchased 63,000 shares of treasury stock on September 1, and issued 54,000 shares on November 1. To calculate the weighted average shares outstanding for the year, you have to take into account the time period each set of shares was outstanding.
The weighted average shares outstanding can be calculated as: [800,000 shares * 12 months + 926,000 shares * 8 months + 863,000 shares * 4 months + 917,000 shares * 1 month] / 12 months = 872,000 shares.
A company's current sales are $300,000 and fixed expenses total $225,000. The contribution margin ratio is 30%. The company has decided to expand production which is expected to increase sales by $70,000 and fixed expenses by $15,000. If these results occur, net operating income will:___________
Answer:
$6,000
Explanation:
The net operating income will increase by $6,000;
$70,000*30%-$15,000=$6,000
As the CM ratio is 30% and $15,000 are fixed expenses,net result will be increase in net operating income.
Lucas is planning to buy a house owned by Janet. He gives her an initial amount of $10,000 to hold the offer open for a 45-day period. Janet will deduct the $10,000 from the purchase price if Lucas purchases the property within those 45 days. If he does not, Janet can keep the $10,000 and offer the house to another party. Which of the following contracts does this scenario best illustrate?
A. Option contract
B. Void contract
C. Implied contract
D. Executed contract
Answer:
The correct answer is letter "A": Option contract.
Explanation:
An option contract gives a buyer the right but not the obligation to purchase an asset at a certain price -usually fixed- and date. The term is mostly used while talking about stocks. A buyer can profit both from the upward and downward movements of the stock price. If the price goes up, the investor could bet on call options while the decreasing price could allow investors to profit from put options.
Lucas's case reflects an option contract because he is planning to purchase a house from Janet at a price and date in the future but he agreed in not having the obligation to buy the house when that date arrives.

When Palm, Inc. acquired its 100% investment in Star Co., a foreign entity, the excess of cost over book value was 10,000 FC. This excess was traceable to a 10-year patent. Assume the foreign entity's local currency is its functional currency.
The elimination entry to amortize the excess will include a(n):
A. debit to Patent for 10,000FC multiplied by the current exchange rate.
B. debit to Patent for 10,000FC multiplied by the historical exchange rate.
C. credit to Investment in Star for 10,000FC multiplied by the average exchange rate.
D. credit to Cumulative Translation Adjustment for 10,000FC multiplied by the historical exchange rate.
Answer:
A. debit to Patent for 10,000FC multiplied by the current exchange rate.
Explanation:
Since the excess of cost over book value was 10,000FC and this excess was traceable to a 10-year patent.
The elimination entry to amortize the excess will include a debit to Patent for 10,000FC multiplied by the current exchange rate assuming the foreign entity's local currency is its functional currency.
In 2019, Jasmine and Thomas, a married couple, had taxable income of $150,000. If they were to file separate tax returns, Jasmine would have reported taxable income of $140,000 and Thomas would have reported taxable income of $10,000. Use Tax Rate
Answer:
The couple would have a marriage benefit of $3,822.
Explanation:
They pay will pay less by filling jointly than their combined tax liability $3,822 if they fill the firm as singles. Below is table showing how is it been gotten
The subject involves determining marginal tax rates for a married couple based on different filing statuses. A couple with a joint income of $150,000 may encounter different tax rates if they file separately rather than jointly, owing to the progressive tax system in the U.S. Marginal tax rates vary depending on the amount of income and filing status.
The question revolves around understanding the marginal tax rates and how they differ when a married couple files jointly versus separate tax returns. Marginal tax rates essentially describe the percentage of tax applied to your income for each tax bracket in which you qualify. For a married couple with a combined income of $150,000, their marginal tax rate would be determined by the tax brackets set by the IRS for the respective tax year.
The scenario provided splits the combined income into $140,000 for Jasmine and $10,000 for Thomas if they were to file separately. This could result in different marginal tax rates for each individual due to the progressive nature of the U.S tax system. The tax rate applied to each individual's income would typically be lower for Thomas since he falls within a lower income bracket, whereas Jasmine's income puts her in a higher tax bracket, hence a higher marginal tax rate. However, in practice, married couples often benefit from a lower tax rate on their combined income when filing jointly, compared to what they would owe in total if they filed separately, due to the way tax brackets are structured for married filing jointly status.
A manufacturing company plans to produce 800 units in June; 1,000 units in July; and 600 units in August. Each unit requires ten (10) hours of direct labor. The direct labor rate is $15 per hour. What is the budgeted direct labor cost for June?
Answer:
$120000
Explanation:
Given: Company produce 800 units in June.
Each unit requires 10 hours of direct labor.
Direct labor rate is $15 per hour.
Now, calculating the Budgeted direct labor cost for June.
Budgeted direct labor cost= [tex]Total\ number\ of \ units\ produced\times projected\ direct\ labor\ hours\times direct\ labor\ cost[/tex]
⇒ Budgeted direct labor cost= [tex]800\times 10\times \$ 15[/tex]
∴ Budgeted direct labor cost= [tex]\$ 120000[/tex]
Hence, The budgeted direct labor cost for June is $120000.

Crackerjacks cost twice as much as Doritos. Fred maximizes utility by buying eight boxes of Crackerjacks and some number of bags of Doritos. If the last box of Crackerjacks gives Fred 100 units of utility, you can conclude that: A. the total utility of the bags of Doritos Fred bought is 200 units. B. the marginal utility of the last bag of Doritos Fred bought is 50 units. C. Fred has also bought 16 bags of Doritos. D. Fred has also bought four bags of Doritos.
Answer:
The best answers is "B"
the marginal utility of the last bag of Doritos Fred bought is 50 units.
Explanation:
According to the law of diminishing marginal utility, after some point the more we consume of something, the less each additional unit adds to our satisfaction.
the marginal utility of the last bag of Doritos Fred bought is 50 units because Crackerjacks cost twice as much as Doritos.
Answer:
B. the marginal utility of the last bag of Doritos Fred bought is 50 units.
Explanation:
Base on the scenario been described in the question, where Crackersjacket cost twice the as much the amount of much of Doritos, law of diminishing makes us to understand this, and it is used to refer to a point at which the level of profits or benefits gained is less than the amount of money or energy invested as seen in the scenario, by the cost of Crackersjacket.
Why are creditors harmed by unexpected inflation? a. Creditors receive lower nominal rates of interest when prices rise. b. Creditors are paid back with more valuable dollars. c. Creditors receive higher nominal rates of interest when prices rise. d. Creditors are paid back money with less spending power than when it was originally loaned out.
Answer:
d. Creditors are paid back money with less spending power than when it was originally loaned out.
Explanation:
Creditors are the entities to whom people or firms owe money. Eg : If A owes money to B, B is A's creditor.
Inflation is the rise in price level. It implies the same money has less purchasing (spending) power, due to price rise.
Normal Inflation is accounted by the creditors as the interest, which is added to the principal value of loaned amount, at the time of repayment.
However, unexpected inflation : It implies that creditors are repaid back money in the time, when that money has less purchasing power than the time when it had been lent. And, this unexpected fall in value of money is not accommodated into the interest rates also (since it was unexpected)

The local printing company purchases a new copy machine that reduces the cost of making a color copy by ten cents a copy. It normally makes 50,000 color copies a year and is in the 28 percent income tax bracket. The annual taxes on this purchase will be ___________.A) $3,600. B) $5,000. C) $6,400. D) $1,400.
Answer:
D. $1400
Explanation:
Given that
Tax rate = 28%
New purchase reduces cost by 10 cents
Copier makes $50000
Thus,
Annual taxes on purchase = (50000/10) × 28%
= 5000 × 28%
= 5000 × 0.28
= $1400
Therefore, Annual taxes on purchase is $1400.

Tinker's cost of goods sold in the year of sale (2019) was $790,000 and 2018 cost of goods sold was $810,000. The inventory at the end of 2019 was $192,000 and at the end of 2018 the inventory was $212,000. Tinker’s average number of days to sell its inventory during 2019 is closest to: (Use 365 days a year. Do not round intermediate calculations.)
Answer:
91 days
Explanation:
Here, we are to calculate the average number of days it will take to sell its inventory in 2019.
We proceed mathematically as follows;
Inventory turnover=COGS/Average inventory
Average inventory=(192,000 + 202,000)/2=$197,000
hence inventory turnover=(790,000/197,000)= 4.01
