Answer:

The correct answer is B) Buyer Intentions Method also known as <em>Consumers' Buyer Plan.</em>

Explanation:

This plan involves approaching customers to elicit information from them about their likelihood to make purchases during a particular period. It is most effective when the number of customers is small relative to the ability of the business to reach out to them.

A sales forecast based on this method has several demerits such as:

  1. The customers may change their minds anytime without consultation with the business
  2. It is  an uneconomical way to do a forecast when the client base is large
  3. Predicting sales over the long-run using this method is statistically impossible

It has a few merits in that the information is obtained first hand from the consumers or buyer and the real intentions of the buyers at the time of collecting information is known.

Cheers!

The computation of the expected value of return equal to

=  (Higher return × probability rate) - (Less return -  probability rate)

= ($20,000 × 70%) - ($100,000 × 30%)

What would it cost to put new carpeting in a room measuring 15 feet by 20 feet if the carpet costs $16.95 per square yard, plus
Scorpion4ik [409]
Calculate for the area of the carpet by multiplying the dimensions given.
                       Area = Length x width
                      Area = (15 ft) x (20 ft) = 300 ft²
Then, convert the calculated area to yard² with the conversion factor of 1 yard = 3 ft.
                       (300 ft²) x (1 yard/ 3 ft)² = 33.33 yd²

Then, multiply this area in square yards with the cost per yd².
                        C = (33.33 yd²)($16.95/yd²)
                          C = $565
Lastly, add the installation cost to the calculate initial cost. 
                   total cost = $565 + $250
                    <em>total cost = $815</em>
