Answer:

a. Cost Leadership

Explanation:

Porter five forces of the model refers to the rivalry among competitors, bargaining power of suppliers, bargaining power of buyers, the threat of new entrants, the threat of substitution.  

The competition between rivals deals with the competitors ' strengths and weaknesses so that the business does the planning appropriately.

The supplier's bargaining power indicated that the shift in the price of the product caused by the supplier's offer and the consumer is motivated to the product as the product is special which affects the overall profit

The buyer's bargaining power relates with the number of buyers and how many orders a single buyer places.

The threat of new entrants will affect the company's total position if the competitor comes on the market.  

The threat of substitution is an alternate way of producing the goods and services that can also weaken your position and have a direct impact on profitability.

A streaming music site changed its format to focus on previously unreleased music from rising artists. the site manager now want
pishuonlain [190]

Answer : The p-value of 0.0743 is greater than alpha at 0.05; so we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no significant difference in the number of unique users before and after a change in policy.

In this question, the manager wants to know if the number of users has changed.

So, the null and alternate hypotheses are:

Null Hypothesis: {H_{0}}: \mu = 131,520

Alternate Hypothesis : {H_{1}}: \mu \not\equiv 131,520

Type of test : Two-tailed test

The level of significance is 95%

We can calculate alpha (α) as follows:

\alpha = 1- Confidence Level

\alpha = 1- 0.95
\alpha = 0.05

The p value = 0.0743.

We use the following rules to arrive at a conclusion when p-values and alpha is given:

If p-value < \alpha, reject the null hypothesis

If p-value \geq \alpha, we don't reject the null hypothesis.

Since the p-value is greater than alpha, we don't reject the null hypothesis.

Journal entries

(a)

Dr. Bad Debt Expense                         $4,207

Cr. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $4,207

(b)

Dr. Bad Debt Expense                         $5,737

Cr. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $5,737

Explanation:

Bad debt Expense will be calculated using the percentage of debt loss. The expense will be calculated using the account receivable balance.

Closing Value of the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts will be as follow

Closing Balance = $127,500 x 5% = $6,375

(a)

As Allowance for Doubtful Accounts already have balance of $2,168, we need to adjust the remainder to make the closing balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $6,375 at the year end.

Adjustment Value = $6,375 - $2,168 = $4,207

(b)

As Allowance for Doubtful Accounts already have balance of $638, we need to adjust the remainder to make the closing balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $6,375 at the year end.

Adjustment Value = $6,375 - $638 = $5,737

Canada and the U.S. both produce wheat and computer software. Canada is said to have the comparative advantage in producing whea
timurjin [86]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em>d. Canada requires fewer resources than the U.S. to produce a bushel of wheat.</em>

Explanation:

A country (in this case Canada) has a comparative advantage over another country (in this case the United States) to produce a certain product (in this case wheat) if the production costs of that product (wheat) are less than from the other country, regardless of the opportunity cost of producing that other product in that country.

The comparative advantage is based on the fact that the country has developed greater efficiency in the use of resources or that it has greater ease of access to them due to better conditions of nature, greater technological development in the field in question, human capital more specialized in that economic field, etc.

The opportunity cost of producing a product or another in the same country does not affect a deterioration or increase of the comparative advantage developed to produce such a product.
