Answer:

Option B (By embracing lower operating costs it's much more likely to handle price rises) is the correct choice.

Explanation:

  • Cost management or leadership seems to be an organizational practice introduced by Michael Porter. This helps build organizational competitive benefits. Price leadership relates to supplying the market with the cheapest operating costs, which varies from the pricing strategy.
  • Sometimes it is driven by performance, size, complexity, reach, infrastructure as well as the perspective of the organization.

Some other options given should not be concerning the condition in question. And the correct response would be alternative B.

The Southern Division manager of Texcaliber Inc. is growing concerned that the division will not be able to meet its current per
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Aston has given the information required to meet division profit objective. Increasing the profit objective is common goal of every manager. Here manager wanted to meet profit objective by minimising fixed cost which is not wrong motive. Whether the excess production can be sold in the market. If there is a chance to sell, more production can be made.

Absorption costing means that all of manufacturing costs are absorbed by units produced. It calculates every cost on no. of units produced but it does not mean to increase production only in order to match income objective or to reach this goal instead of fact that inventory remains at end, and sale of that increased production does not take place and income objective met because of the lower cost per unit.

Minchanka [31]

Answer with Explanation:

<u>Risk which can’t be mitigated</u>: The risks that the share price would fall due to sudden political environment instability or events that effects the economy will definitely affect the business operations as well. Thus are the risks that can not be mitigated at all. Another example would be Corona virus implications on the operation of the company which is again a risk that can't be mitigated.

<u>Risks, that aren’t worth the effort to reduce the exposure any further: </u>

The part of the sentence talks about the risk exposure which says that if the company doesn't resides in an area which is not prone to seismic activity and the chances of earthquake in a country is below 0.000001% which is almost negligible but still it is worthless to purchase the earthquake insurance. As this risk is almost negligible hence it is not worth the effort to reduce the exposure any further.

<u>Risks that wouldn't be addressed in short term due to other priorities: </u>

The risks that will not occur in the next 12 month, can be addressed after 6 months and thus allowing the company to prioritize the risks that must be resolved first. This means that if their is a risk that one of our several products that would be launched after 12 months from now will not be winning customer market can be addressed after 6 months because it is dependent on our future action. If we don't launch our product, our product is not rejected by the customer. Hence situations like this allows us to prioritize our risks.

Nana76 [90]

Answer:

a. Assuming you purchased the bond for $850, what rate of return would you earn if you held the bond for 30 years until it matured with a value $5,000?

future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ

  • future value = $5,000
  • present value = $850
  • n = 30

5,000 = 850 x (1 + r)³⁰

(1 + r)³⁰ = 5,000 / 850 = 5.882652

³⁰√(1 + r)³⁰ = ³⁰√5.882652

1 + r = 1.0608444

r = 0.0608444

r = 6.08%

b. Suppose under the terms of the bond you could redeem the bond in 2025. DMF agreed to pay an annual interest rate of 1.3 percent until that date. How much would the bond be worth at that time?

future value = present value x (1 + r)ⁿ

future value = 850 x 1.013⁷ = $930.43

c. In 2025, instead of cashing in the bond for its then current value, you decide to hold the bond until it matures in 2048. What annual rate of return will you earn over the last 23 years?

5,000 = 930.43 x (1 + r)²³

(1 + r)²³ = 5,000 / 930.43 = 5.373859398

²³√(1 + r)²³ = ²³√5.373859398

1 + r = 1.075849638

r = 0.0758

r = 7.58%
