The correct answer is letter "C": delay until further clarity emerges.
Explanation:
American Professor Alfred A. Marcus (born in 1950) in his book "<em>The Future of Technology Management and the Business</em>" (2015) explains hedging could be a strategy to protect companies in front of the rapidly changing environment they face because of the constant introduction to technology in the market. According to Marcus, there are five (5) hedging strategies firms could implement:
- Gamble on the most probable: <em>work on the product with the highest success rate.
</em>
- Take the robust route: <em>invest in as many products as possible.
</em>
- Delay until further clarity emerges: <em>waiting for a proper moment to react in front of market changes.
</em>
- Commit with a fallback: <em>adapt according to the market.
</em>
- Try to shape the future: <em>innovate.</em>
Answer:
Unit cost 82
Explanation:
Vaiable cost per unit:
materials 49
Labor 28
Variable OH 5
Unit cost 82
<em>The variable selling and administrative expense</em> will be listed in the income statemnt as part of the variables cost to determinate the contribution, but it is not part of the production cost, <u>it doesn't activate through inventory.</u>
Answer:
$404,000
Explanation:
Production Unit = $135,000 + $18,000 - $14,000 = $139,000
Labor hours per unit = 30 mins = 0.5 hours
Total Labor Hours = $139,000 x 0.5 = 69,500 hours
Variable Overhead 69,500 x 5 = $347,500
Total Overhead Cost = $347, 500 + $56,500 = $404,000
Answer:
Unsystematic risk
Explanation:
<em>The portfolio theory posits that the total risk on a collection of assets (i,e a portfolio) can be reduced by spreading the invested fund into different assets that are uncorrelated.</em>
<em>According to this model, the total risk on a portfolio is divided into systematic and unsystematic risks. The theory assumed by diversification, the unsystematic risk associated with a portfolio is eliminated.</em>
Unsystematic risk essentially are those unique individual assets for example. if we invest in company stock, risk associated with factors like bad management , law suit against a company, defect in company;s products are example of unique or systematic risks
