Answer:

False

Explanation:

As per the Porter's Five force the force of supplier is described as follows:

The suppliers sets the price of goods that can be controlled by them, that depends on number of suppliers of inputs for the goods, if there are less suppliers then the price will move according to suppliers as for high demand there are low suppliers.

Further here it is provided that the price is determined by auto dealers, of a product for which consumers cannot derive the true price that means, that the   suppliers can add any profit margin.

This will not make the supplier force weak in any respect.

Therefore, the statement is False.

Answer: A

Explanation: A. Free trade . A free trade represents a situation in which a government does not attempt to influence through quotas or duties what its citizens can buy from another country, or what they can produce and sell to another country . The free trade

is a trade policy that does not restrict imports or exports; it can also be understood as the free market idea applied to international trade. A free trade agreement is a pact between two or more nations to reduce barriers to imports and exports among them. Under a free trade policy, goods and services can be bought and sold across international borders with little or no government tariffs, quotas, subsidies, or prohibitions to inhibit their exchange.

Answer:

24 months

Explanation:

Payback method analysis the amount of time that will pass until you recover your capital. Since the capital is $12000 ant the payments are $500 per month, the payback period will be 12000/500 = 24 months.

Answer: 24 months

Explanation: First, the $500 x 12 months = $6,000 savings in the first year.

For the next 12 months, the savings is an additional $6,00.

Therefore, if you add those 2 together, it is 24 months to recover the cost of refinancing.

Answer: Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Alpha:

Opportunity cost of producing one apple = [tex]\frac{18}{9}[/tex]

                                                                     = 2 oranges

Beta:

Opportunity cost of producing one apple = [tex]\frac{16}{4}[/tex]

                                                                     = 4 oranges

It was given that the terms of trade are established as 1 apple for 2 oranges.

Therefore, there are no incentives for Alpha to trade until the terms of trade becomes greater than 2 oranges for one apple.

Comparative advantage dictates that Alpha should specialize in apple production while Beta should specialize in orange production. Given the terms of trade (1 apple for 2 oranges), both Alpha and Beta would benefit from specialization and trade, which aligns with answer option B.

The student's question is a classic instance of comparative advantage and trade. Alpha can produce either 18 oranges or 9 apples an hour, whereas Beta can produce either 16 oranges or 4 apples an hour. When trade is set at 1 apple for 2 oranges, we must identify which country has the comparative advantage in producing each good.

To determine the comparative advantage, we calculate the opportunity cost of producing one unit of a good in terms of the other. For Alpha, the opportunity cost of 1 apple is 2 oranges (18 oranges / 9 apples), and for Beta, the opportunity cost of 1 apple is 4 oranges (16 oranges / 4 apples). Therefore, Alpha has a comparative advantage in producing apples since they give up fewer oranges to produce one apple, and Beta has a comparative advantage in producing oranges since they give up fewer apples to produce oranges.

Given the terms of trade (1 apple for 2 oranges), Alpha should specialize in apples and Beta should specialize in oranges. Both can benefit from this trade since Alpha can trade an apple for more than 2 oranges (the amount it would sacrifice to make its own) and Beta can trade 2 oranges for an apple, which is less than the 4 oranges it would have to give up to make its own apple. The correct answer is B: it is in the interest of both countries to specialize and trade with one another.

Answer: Option(B) is correct.

Explanation:

Money is a term or instrument that is generally used in making transaction of goods and services. Individuals use money as a medium of exchange, unit of value and for making standard deferred payments. It is easy to store money.

Answer: Functional strategic planning

Explanation: Functional strategic planning refers to planning for a specific functional area of the organisation. This type of planning affects only one department or the area for which is made and other departments do not get affected from it very much. This is done by the departmental heads of the organisation.

In the given case, Jenna is the director of IT department and is planning to retreat her departments strategies. Her actions would only affect the IT department.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is D.

Answer:

The correct answer is "Is information that is capable of making a difference in a business decision".

Explanation:

Relevance is the characteristic of the financial information of having a notorious, potential or real utility, for the purposes pursued by the different recipients of the financial information. Information is, therefore, relevant, when it is likely to influence user decision making. The relevance of an information implies that from its consideration differences can be established in a decision, helping users to make predictions about the consequences of past, present or future events, or to confirm or correct previous expectations.

The value of the real exchange rate changed by 59% over the specified period. Consequently, American consumption of Indian goods and services will likely increase, while India's consumption of American goods and services will likely decrease.

To calculate the percentage change in the real exchange rate, we have to adjust the nominal exchange rate change by the inflation rates of the two countries. From January 2012 to January 2013, the Indian rupee has depreciated from 50 INR/USD to 60 INR/USD, which is a 20% nominal depreciation (60-50)/50*100. However, taking into account inflation, with a 20% decrease in Indian prices (from 100 to 80) and a 6% increase in US prices (from 100 to 106), we can calculate the real exchange rate change.

The real exchange rate (RER) can be computed as follows: (Nominal Exchange Rate * Price Level abroad) / Price Level home. The initial RER is (50 INR/USD * 100) / 100 = 50. The final RER is (60 INR/USD * 106) / 80 = 79.5. Thus, the real exchange rate has changed by (79.5 – 50) / 50 * 100 = 59% to the nearest whole percentage point.

With a weaker rupee and lower price level in India, American consumption of Indian goods and services will likely increase, as these goods become cheaper for Americans. Conversely, with a stronger dollar and a higher price level in the US, India’s consumption of American goods and services will likely decrease, since these goods become more expensive for Indians.

Answer:

The correct answer is The value of a business as a whole, over and above the value of its net identifiable assets.

Explanation:

Goodwill is an intangible asset that reflects the connections of a customer service business, reputation and other similar factors.

It shows the value of a company's reputation, which can affect its market situation, both positively and negatively.

If it affects positively, it is called goodwill. This is a fixed asset, an element of the company with prolonged value, not generally intended for sale.

However, goodwill can be characterized as something that can generate future profits for the company.

Answer: is correct

Explanation: Tariff refers to the tax imposed on import and export activities. These are a type of trade restrictions that are made to regulate the domestic market of the country.

The tariff imposed on export will increase the price of the exported goods in the domestic market. Thus a majority population in the country will not purchase it and the domestic producers will benefit from this situation. In such a case, the domestic producers will make unreasonable profits from domestic consumers.

Answer: A) Whistle-blowing

Explanation: Reporting irregularities or whistleblowing is the term used when a person gives information regarding an illegal act, such as corruption, sexual harassment, among others. We can refer to this action with the name "report irregularities" or otherwise. The person usually has a close relationship with the organization, often it is an employee, but sometimes it can be a supplier or a customer. He becomes a whistleblower when he observes behaviors or actions that he considers to be improper, illegal behaviors and that do not respect the company´s code of conduct, and reports that suspicion as a matter of reporting irregularities.

Answer:

4.5%

Explanation:

Given:

Amount invested = $61,293

Time period = 5 years

Interest is compounded quarterly , thus, n = 5 × 4 = 20

Final amount = $76,662.25

Let the interest rate be 'i%' quarterly

Now,

for compound interest

[tex]\textup{Present value}=Amount invested\times(1+\frac{i}{100})^n[/tex]

on substituting the values, we get

[tex]\textup{76,662.25}=61,293\times(1+\frac{i}{100})^20[/tex]

or

( 1 + 0.01 × i )²⁰ = 1.250

or

or i = 1.122

thus,

annual interest rate = 1.122 × 4 = 4.488 ≈ 4.5%

Final answer:

To find the percentile rank of a $30,000 car, the z-score is first calculated by dividing the difference between the car's price and the mean price by the standard deviation. With a z-score of 2, we then reference a z-table to determine the percentile, which is around the 97.5th percentile. This means that the car costs more than 97.5% of new cars.

Explanation:

The student's question involves finding the percentile rank of a car that sold for $30,000 given that the average (mean) new car costs $23,000 with a standard deviation of $3,500, assuming that the prices are normally distributed. To solve this, we first calculate the z-score for $30,000 using the formula:

Z = (X - μ) / σ

Where X is the value in question ($30,000), μ is the mean ($23,000), and σ is the standard deviation ($3,500).

Z = ($30,000 - $23,000) / $3,500 = $7,000 / $3,500 = 2

Next, we refer to the standard normal distribution table (z-table) to find the percentile rank that corresponds to a z-score of 2. This z-score is typically associated with the 97.5th percentile (however, please verify with a standard normal distribution table as exact values can vary slightly).

Therefore, a car sold for $30,000 is at the 97.5th percentile rank, indicating that it costs more than 97.5% of new cars.

Answer:

$ 105 per ton

Explanation:

If the ton is worth $ 100 with a tariff of 10%, duties will be $ 10 per ton. However, if 50% of this amount is paid by exporter, duties equal $ 5 per ton. Therefore, domestic price =

$ 100 + $ 5 = $ 105

Final answer:

The U.S. domestic price of resins after a 10% tariff is imposed and with exporters bearing half of the tariff would increase by $5 to $105 per ton.

Explanation:

When the United States imposes a 10% tariff on imported resins, the world price of resins which is $100 per ton will increase due to this tariff. The tariff adds $10 to the cost, making the new price $110 per ton if the exporters bore the entire cost. However, if exporters bear half of the tariff, the increase in price would be split between exporters and U.S. consumers. Consequently, the price increase for U.S. consumers would be $5, leading to a new domestic price of resins of $105 per ton after the imposition of the tariff, rounded to the nearest dollar.

Answer:

Regional Production

Explanation:

Juggernaut, Inc. can manufacture its bulk products by region, that way the distance to each selling point is less and the costs are lower.

Juggernaut, Inc. can reduce export transportation costs by producing closer to target markets, optimizing transport methods and routes, and partnering with local distributors for potentially localized assembly and customization of products.

Juggernaut, Inc. can avoid incurring high transportation costs when exporting its bulky commercial appliances by exploring a few strategic options. One approach is to establish manufacturing plants closer to the target foreign markets; by producing products in proximity to the consumers, the firm can significantly reduce transport distances and costs. Additionally, Juggernaut, Inc. can consider shipping disassembled units to reduce volume and possibly take advantage of some countries' lower tariffs on component parts compared to fully assembled products.

Another method to manage transportation costs is to use cost-effective transport options, like shipping via water transport, which is typically less expensive for heavy and bulky items than air freight. Juggernaut, Inc. should also assess its packaging methods, possibly adapting them to maximize space utilization and protect the goods during longer journeys. This can be coupled with strategies to maximize profits such as optimizing delivery routes and schedules to consolidate shipments.

Lastly, the company could explore partnerships with local distributors in the target markets. Distributors with established infrastructure can often handle bulk products more economically. Such partnerships might also open up additional services for the company, such as local assembly or customization of products, which can further reduce costs and make the offerings more attractive to local consumers. By adapting products and services, Juggernaut, Inc. has the potential to reduce transportation overhead while potentially increasing their global market share.

Answer:

human resource management.

Explanation:

human resource management is the strategic approach to the effective management of people in a company or organization. So it belongs to the HR Unit.

Final answer:

Financial managers aim to maximize the current value per share to represent shareholder interests and ensure a healthy return on investment. This aligns with corporate objectives, benefits the firm's financial status, and incentivizes managers through compensation. It also supports long-term sustainability by encouraging fair employee treatment.

Explanation:

'Financial managers should strive to maximize the current value per share of the existing stock because they have been hired to represent the interests of the current shareholders, who are the owners of the company'. When the value per share increases, this indicates a healthy return on investment for the shareholders, leading to potential profits through dividends or increased share value. Furthermore, financial managers and executives often have their compensation linked to the company's performance, typically through bonuses or stock options, providing a personal incentive to focus on increasing the company's profitability and, by extension, its share value.

The goal of maximizing share value also aligns with a firm's need to access financial capital for expansion and increases the firm's visibility in financial markets. Profitable firms can opt to reinvest for growth or payout dividends, decisions that are directly tied to the firm's market capitalization. In the long run, maximizing firm value benefits not only the shareholders but can lead to fair treatment of employees, as companies that exploit their workforce may face talent loss and decreased motivation, ultimately impacting profits and firm value negatively.

Answer:

The correct answer is d. an increase in total revenue.

Explanation:

In inelastic markets, demand is almost independent of price variations. Therefore, the best pricing strategy in this case is to increase the price to sell the same amount as before (that is, before the price increase), and maximize profit margins as a result.

In the context of inelastic demand, an increase in price results in an increase in total revenue, due to the limited change in the quantity demanded.

When demand is inelastic, an increase in price would cause an increase in total revenue. This is because demand inelasticity means that the quantity demanded does not significantly respond to a change in price. For example, essential goods like medicines are often inelastic, if the price increases, people still need the product so they continue to buy it, leading to more revenue for the sellers.
