Answer:

intensity of rivalry

Explanation:

You answer this question based on Porter's Five forces model. This model is used to analyze how stiff competition is in a given industry. It includes, threat of new entrants, bargaining power of suppliers, bargaining power of buyers, intensity of rivalry and threat of substitute goods. In this case, the leaders must address the intensity of rivalry because the market is already saturated with those three big companies. Therefore,  your company must evaluate level of homogeneity of products that already exists, consumers' switching costs and brand loyalty to come up with a competitive strategy.

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

It would have earned 15.91 dollars of interest

Explanation:

We will calcualte for compounding at each moment:

First, we will calculate for $6,500 for March 1st to March 15th:

Then, from March 16th to march 27th we calculate for $5,000 + accrued interest of the peri

and from March 28th to 31th we calcualte $5,700 + accrued interest

Principal (1 + \frac{r}{m} )^{n \times m} = Amount

n  = 15/365 days

m = 365

r   = 0.0325

6,500 (1 + \frac{0.0325}{365} )^{15/365 \times 365} = Amount

6508.69

Then we withdraw 1,500

And we calcualte for hte period marchth to March 27th for the currnet value: 5,008.69

5,008.69 (1 + \frac{0.0325}{365} )^{11/365 \times 365} = Amount

Amount: 5,013.60

Then we deposit 700 and calcualte the rest of the month:

5,713.60 (1 + \frac{0.0325}{365} )^{11/365 \times 365} = Amount

Amount: 5,715.64

We  can now calcualtethe interest earned:

6,508.96 - 6,500     =  8.96

5,013.60 - 5,008.69 =   4.91

5,715.64 - 5,713.60  =    2.04

        total interest  =  15.91

g Western Electric has 27,500 shares of common stock outstanding at a price per share of $70 and a rate of return of 13.45 perce
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The WACC is 10.93%

Explanation:

The WACC or weighted average cost of capital is the cost of a firm's capital structure. The capital stricture may be formed of the following components namely debt, preferred stock and common stock. The WACC assigns the weights to each of these components based on the finance provided by each of the above components as a proportion of total capital structure or total assets.

The WACC is calculated by taking the market value of each component. The formula for WACC is as follows,

WACC = wD * rD * (1-tax rate)  +  wP * rP  +  wE * rE

Where,

  • w represents the weight of each component
  • r represents the cost of each component
  • D, P and E represents debt, preferred stock and Common stock respectively.
  • We take after tax cost of debt. So we multiply rD with (1-tax rate)

Debt = 377000 * 106.5%  = $401505

Preferred stock = 6850 * 90.50  =  $619925

Common stock = 27500 * 70  = $1925000

Total assets = 401505 + 619925 + 1925000  = $2946430

WACC = 401505/2946430 * 7.81% * (1-0.35)  +  619925/2946430 * 6.9%  +

1925000/2946430 * 13.45%

WACC = 0.1093 or 10.93%

Myers Business Systems is evaluating the introduction of a new product. The possible levels of unit sales and the probabilities
loris [4]

Answer:

a. What is the expected value of unit sales for the new product? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole unit.)

Possible Market Reaction    Sales Units     Probability     Expected sales

Low response                             20                 .30                    6

Moderate response                    35                 .20                    7

High response                            50                 .20                    10

<u>Very high response                    90                 .30                    27          </u>

Total                                                                                          50 units

b. What is the standard deviation of unit sales? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

mean = (6 + 7 + 10 + 27) / 4  = 12.5

variance = {[0.30 x (20 - 50)²] + [0.20 x (35 - 50)²] + [0.20 x (50 - 50)²] + [0.30 x (90 - 50)²]} / 4 = (270 + 45 + 0 + 480) / 4 = 795 / 4 = 198.75

standard deviation = √198.75 = 14.10 units
