Answer: Avoiding use of green/environmentally-friendly materials (which are of lower quality than superior materials)
Explanation:
The International Footwear Federation is a consumer group that issues s/q ratings for footware makers around the world.
The S/Q ratings range from 0 - 10 stars and measure everything between the quality and appearance of the footware apparel.
Footware with high quality materials that are durable rank high in the S/Q matrix and as such it is imperative that companies aiming to move higher up the S/Q scale, use high quality materials.
Avoiding the use of green/environmentally-friendly materials (which are of lower quality than superior materials) and instead using Superior materials, whilst not entirely good for the Environment, will make a shoe stronger which would increase the S/Q rating.
The price of corn will increase will definitely occur in the corn market.

Ethanol is a renewable fuel of several organic materials known as "biomass." Further, then 98% of U.S. petroleum includes ethanol, usually E10 to control air emissions, or E10 (10% ethanol, 90% gasoline). Oxygenation of petrol
Corn ethanol is the primary ethanol origin of ethanol fuel throughout the United States derived from corn biomass.
Maize ethanol is generated by fermenting and distilling of ethanol. It is questionable whether corn ethanol consumption leads to lower pollution of greenhouse gas than petrol.
Answer:
Increase in operating income by $12,000
Explanation:
The above is an incomplete question because the value for 'space normally used to produce the rented line' is missing. However, I assumed the value is $26,000 per year as gotten from the internet -Chegg.
Given the above information, the operating income can be affected as calculated below;
Sales revenue $85,000
Add additional revenue $26,000
Total revenue $11,1000
Less: variable expenses ($40,000)
Contribution margin $71,000
Less: fixed expense ($52,000)
New net operating income
$19,000
Less: Original operating income
($7,000)
Increase in operating income
$12,000
Answer:
$458,000
Explanation:
The computation of the total production cost in case of 85,000 toys are produced
The fixed cost is
= Total manufacturing cost - total variable cost
= $360,000 - $140,000
= $220,000
And, the variable cost per unit is
= $140,000 ÷ 50,000 toys
= $2.8
So for 85,000 toys, the total production cost is
= Fixed cost + Variable cost × variable cost per unit
= $220,000 + 85,000 toys × $2.8
= $220,000 + $238,000
= $458,000
