Answer:

The answer is: B) concentrated/niche marketing

Explanation:

Niche (or concentrated) marketing concentrates all of its actions and promotions on small but very specific and well defined segments of the population. A niche marketing strategy focuses on becoming a big fish on a small pond, and usually charging a higher price for the niche product. The specific needs and requirements of those "niche customers" are usually not well addressed by mass marketing actions.

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

I took some work home because I had to meet an important deadline the next morning. If I am able to finish the work on time and do it correctly, then there is a chance of getting either a promotion or a pay raise. If I cannot complete it on time, I will not get fired, but any chances of a promotion or pay raise in the near will vanish.

Since I was working at home, I couldn't prepare anything for dinner, so I decided to buy food on a website and get it delivered home. I spent $20 on my dinner, even though I could have prepared a similar dinner for $5.

I was willing to pay for the expensive meal because the opportunity cost of preparing dinner instead was too high. I can afford to pay $15 more for eating, but I cannot afford to lose the opportunity of a promotion or a pay raise. Even if I do not get them immediately, not completing my job would have made it much harder to get it in the future.

My decision is rational because I was sacrificing a small amount of money in order to preserve something that is really valuable for me (promotion or pay raise).

All resources are scarce, and in this case, time was scarce. So I had to decide which action was more valuable and which action could yield a higher benefit.

In the situation being described the easement was created of necessity. An easement of necessity refers to the right of an individual to use the property of another due to there being no access to a public right of way to and from the individual's own property, just like in this scenario. Since Jim has no other way of getting to and from his home then he has a necessity of passing through his neighbor's property.

On October 1, Year 1, Jason Company paid $7,200 to lease office space for one year beginning immediately. What is the amount of
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The amount of rent expense that will be reported on the Year 1 income statement is $1,800 .

The cash outflow for rent that would be reported on the Year 1 statement of cash flows is $5,400.

Explanation:

Though the amount paid was paid on October 1, Year 1 it will only be expensed from October to December for year 1.

The duration of the payment is 12 months, hence  

Monthly amortization = $7,200/12 = $600

Rent expense for year 1 = $600 × 3 = $1,800

The ending balance in the prepaid rent account will be  

= $7,200 - $1,800

= $5,400

This will be the cash outflow for rent that would be reported on the Year 1 statement of cash flows.
