Answer:

It's not a wise decision.

Explanation:

It's not the correct call, because costs for rent are always the same, since they have a contract. So, lower prices is gonna get to the Company A a poor profitability in the future. If the do it and they get more costumers, the problem isn't solved, because once they need to rise prices, costumers are gonna leave at the same time.

guapka [62]

Answer:

(0.5 \times 8q_2)+q_2=100\\\\5q_2=100\\\\q_2=20

since q_2 = 20

q_1 = 8*20\\\\q_1=160

Explanation:

U(q₁ q₂)

q_1^{0.8}q_2^{0.2}\\\\P_1= \$0.5 \ P_2=\$1 \ Y=100

Budget law can be given by

P_1q_1+P_2q_2=Y\\\\0.5q_1+q_2=100

Lagrangian function can be given by

L=q_1^{0.8}q_2^{0.2}+ \lambda (100-0.5q_1-q_2)

First order condition csn be given by

\frac{dL}{dq} =0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}-0.5 \lambda=0\\\\0.5 \lambda=0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}---(i)

\frac{dL}{dq} =0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}- \lambda=0\\\\ \lambda=0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}---(ii)

\frac{dL}{d \lambda} =100-0.5q_1-q_2=0\\\\0.5q_1+q_2=100---(iii)

From eqn (i) and eqn (ii) we have

\frac{0.5 \lambda}{\lambda} =\frac{0.8q_1^{-0.2}q_2^{0.2}}{0.2q_1^{0.8}q_2^{-0.8}} \\\\0.5=\frac{4q_2}{q_1}\\\\q_1=8q_2}

Putting q_1=8q_2 in euqtion (iii) we have

(0.5 \times 8q_2)+q_2=100\\\\5q_2=100\\\\q_2=20

since q_2 = 20

q_1 = 8*20\\\\q_1=160

module 3 BlockWood Inc. has been providing raw materials to Couches Corp., a furniture company. The management at Couches recent
maria [59]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

You forgot to include the options for this question. However, we can answer the following.

This scenario best illustrates forward integration.

This is a case of forward integration because BlockWood Inc., which was facing similar difficulties with other buyers too, eventually stopped supplying raw materials and took to manufacturing furniture instead. SO they decided to fabricate their own furniture.

Companies make this decision as a process of vertical integration to expand and grow their business. In this case to produce and control their own products, eliminating the retailer that had decided to pay less money for the raw materials.

So now, Blockwood Inc. has the challenge to design and sell the products it is fabricating.

  1. Innovation Skills: It is expected that a marketing professional should be able to think differently, energise creativity in  the business and craft maverick ways of gaining the attention of the market and transform that attention to patronage.
  2. Market Development Skills: One is also expected to gain the ability to identify and articulate latent  customer needs (even before the customers become aware of them), spot socioeconomic  trends as well as technological  developments which create opportunities for the company as well as for the customer.
  3. Pricing Technology: Pricing is an art and a science. It involves accounting, economics and psychology. Marketing deals with the economics and psychology bit of it. Armed with this information, one is able to get into the mind of the individual buyers and them to firm up their buying decision.

Cheers!
