Explanation:
Initial Benefits of Mover
Technical Innovation is the first proposer to see high-tech skills in the market while continuing to bring value to their companies. Therefore, later entrants will spend more time improving the product. The first mover can also apply patents for its invention and technology. It is therefore even more difficult for new entrants to challenge the first proposal. Conserving the required resources The first mover can control a lot of resources in the beginning. For example, they can oversee raw materials, experienced workers, early buyers, etc. However, unlike the first shipment, recent competitors do not have enough money, which makes it a challenge for them to succeed in the marketIncrease switching costs The first shipping customer gets the rewards of changing costs, as consumers eventually change their purchasing policies. So with increasing switching costs, the first mover can benefit.disadvantage of first mover
Customers are struggling to adapt to new technology because they are not sure if it works. After all, no one is at risk of trying something new. Innovation is a high-risk task because it costs too much and can fail. Although first movers need to take a huge risk, they need to create something new to open up the market. After successfully opening the market, they will have to face the pressure of potential competition as more and more consumers will try to copy their goods and make money from the market. And, in order to earn revenue in the industry, they have to deal with newcomers.Finally for Tesla, yes. Tesla follows the advantage of the first mover as it focuses exclusively on the new market hybrid cars. Tesla has also released the Model 3, which will help Tesla gain a greater strategic advantage in the electric vehicle market.

b. (8 points) How do you think the technology that you use, affects the market structure and/or the demand of your product? Note that this question is NOT about how technology affects your production process, therefore, NOT about productivity, NOT about the cost structure.
Answer:
a. (6 points) Why would you want to differentiate your product?
Because differentiating your product is one of the two basic business strategies, the other one being reducing the price of the product. Differentiating your product allows you to gain competitiveness in a contested market.
b. (8 points) How would you do it? How would your product differ?
An product that can be differentiated is a yogurt. The market for yogurt is very competitive so differentiation is necessary. The yogurt could be flavored in less common ways: like saffron, kiwi or cucumber, and the technique could be adapted from Greek Yogurt to give a healthier style.
a. (5 points) Please explain in detail what this asymmetric information problem, and who is facing it (your firm or your consumers).
The problem of asymmetric information occurs when one party of the transaction has more information than the other party. In a typical business transaction, the managers of the firm have more information than consumers, so consumers would be facing the problem of asymmetric information.
b. (8 points) How do you think the technology that you use, affects the market structure and/or the demand of your product?
Technology can make the market structure more competitive or less, but it usually makes it more competitive. Technology also improves the productiviy and efficiency of the production process, which leads to costs reductions than pass through price. This in turn raises demands for the product.

a. The summary of significant accounting policies is located in note 2 to the financial statements. Locate the section on property and equipment. What depreciation method does American Eagle use
Answer:
American Eagle uses the straight-line depreciation method in depreciating its property, plant, and equipment.
Explanation:
The straight-line depreciation method involves applying the same rate on the initial depreciable amount or the same amount of depreciation expense throughout the asset's useful life. For American Eagle, this method involves the estimation of the useful life of each property, plant, and equipment class. The company has established that its buildings have 25 years useful life, leasehold improvements 10 years, fixtures and equipment 5 years, while information technology assets have 3 to 5 years. This implies that after deducting any estimated salvage value, the depreciable amount (basis) of the asset is divided by the number of estimated useful life. For building, this can also be expressed in percentage terms as 4% (100/25); for leasehold improvements as 10% (100/10); for fixtures and equipment as 20% (100/5); and same for information technology.

Explain how changes in interest rates and rates of return on various investment options will affect the amount of money that businesses are willing to invest to increase output.
Answer:
Interest rates represent the opportunity costs of investors. If the interest rates are too high, then the opportunity cost of making an investment increases, since the investor could simply decide to purchase Treasury Bonds, corporate bonds, or put the money on a CD. As interest rates increase, total output decreases since investment in new projects decreases.
On the other hand, if interest rates lower, the opportunity cost of investors decrease. Investors will be willing to invest in new projects instead of purchasing Treasury Bonds, corporate bonds, or put the money on a CD. As interest rates decrease, total output increases since investment in new projects increases.

Houston-based Advanced Electronics manufactures audio speakers for desktop computers. The following data relate to the period just ended when the company produced and sold 41,000 speaker sets:
Sales $3,362,000
Variable costs 840,500
Fixed costs 2,310,000
Management is considering relocating its manufacturing facilities to northern Mexico to reduce costs. Variable costs are expected to average $20.00 per set; annual fixed costs are anticipated to be $1,986,000.
Required:
1. Calculate the company’s current income and determine the level of dollar sales needed to double that figure, assuming that manufacturing operations remain in the United States.
2. Determine the break-even point in speaker sets if operations are shifted to Mexico.
3. Assume that management desires to achieve the Mexican break-even point; however, operations will remain in the United States.
4. If variable costs remain constant, by how much must fixed costs change?
5. If fixed costs remain constant, by how much must unit variable cost change?
6. Determine the impact (increase, decrease, or no effect) of the following operating changes.
A) Effect of an increase in direct material costs on the break-even point.
B) Effect of an increase in fixed administration costs on the unit contribution margin.
C) Effect of an increase in the unit contribution margin on net income.
D) Effect of a decrease in the number of units sold on the breakeven point.
Answer:
1. $211,500 and $3,644,000
2. 32,033 speaker sets (Mexican)
3. 32,033 speaker sets (Mexican required Break even)
4. $323,954 decrease
5. $11,11 decrease
6. Determining Effects :
A. decrease
B. no effect
C. increase
D. no effect
Explanation:
Part 1
a
Income = Contribution (Sales - Variable Costs) - Fixed Costs
therefore,
Income = $3,362,000 - $840,500 - $2,310,000 = $211,500
b
Double the figure of income = $211,500 x 2 = $423,000
Sales to achieve target profit = Target Profit + Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution Margin
where,
Contribution Margin = Contribution (Sales - Variable Costs) ÷ Sales
= ($3,362,000 - $840,500) ÷ $3,362,000
= 0.75
therefore,
Sales to achieve $423,000 profit = ($423,000 + $2,310,000) ÷ 0.75
= $3,644,000
Part 2
Break even point (speaker sets) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit
where,
Fixed Cost = $1,986,000
Contribution per unit = ($3,362,000 / 41,000) - $20.00 = $62.00
therefore,
Break even point (speaker sets) = $1,986,000 ÷ $62.00
= 32,033 speaker sets
Part 3
Mexico :
Break even point (speaker sets) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit
where,
Fixed Cost = $1,986,000
Contribution per unit = ($3,362,000 / 41,000) - $20.00 = $62.00
therefore,
Break even point (speaker sets) = $1,986,000 ÷ $62.00
= 32,033 speaker sets
United States :
Break even point (speaker sets) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit
where,
Fixed Cost = $2,310,000
Contribution per unit = ($3,362,000 / 41,000) - ($840,500 / 41,000) = $61.50
therefore,
Break even point (speaker sets) = $2,310,000 ÷ $61.50
= 37,561 speaker sets
Part 4
Break even point (speaker sets) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit
where,
US Fixed Cost = $2,310,000
Fixed Cost Required = Unknown
Contribution per unit = $82.00 - $20.00 = $62.00
therefore,
Fixed Cost = Breakeven Point x Contribution per unit
= 32,033 speaker sets x $62.00
= $1,986,046
Change in Fixed Costs = $323,954 decrease ($2,310,000 - $1,986,046)
Part 5
Break even point (speaker sets) = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution per unit
where,
US Fixed Cost = $2,310,000
US Contribution per unit = $82.00 - $20.00 = $62.00
Contribution per unit = $82.00 - V = Unknown
therefore,
Contribution per unit = Fixed Costs ÷ Breakeven point
= $2,310,000 ÷ 32,033 speaker sets
= $73.11
Variable Cost = Selling Price - Contribution per unit
= $82.00 - $73.11
= $8.89
Change in Variable Cost = $11,11 decrease ($20.00 - $8.89)

The objective function is:
Minimization (Z) = 0.53Xae + 0.21Xaf + 0.52Xag + 0.41Xah + 0.31Xbe + 0.37Xbf + 0.41Xbg + 0.28Xbh + 0.56Xce + 0.32Xcf + 0.56Xcg + 0.33Xch + 0.41Xde + 0.54Xdf + 0.34Xdg + 0.52Xdh
Explanation:
Solution:
We are asked to find the value of the objective function in this data given.
So,
Let Xae be the number of units shipping from warehouse A to city E.
Similarly, we have Xaf, Xag, Xah
Let Xbe be the number of units shipping from warehouse B to city E .
Similarly, we have Xbf, Xbg, Xbh
Let Xce be the number of units shipping from warehouse C to city E .
Similarly, we have Xcf, Xcg, Xch
Let Xde be the number of units shipping from warehouse D to city E .
Similarly, we have Xdf, Xdg, Xdh
Furthermore,
0.53 is the shipping cost of 1 unit from warehouse A to City E.
So, the shipping cost of Xae units from warehouse A to City E is 0.53Xae.
Similarly, we have other corresponding costs.
Hence,
The objective function is:
Minimization (Z) = 0.53Xae + 0.21Xaf + 0.52Xag + 0.41Xah + 0.31Xbe + 0.37Xbf + 0.41Xbg + 0.28Xbh + 0.56Xce + 0.32Xcf + 0.56Xcg + 0.33Xch + 0.41Xde + 0.54Xdf + 0.34Xdg + 0.52Xdh

Cullumber Corp. had total variable costs of $247,500, total fixed costs of $193,500, and total revenues of $450,000. Compute the required sales in dollars to break even.
Answer:
$430,000
Explanation:
The first step is to calculate the contribution margin
= revenues-variable cost
= $450,000-$247,500
= $202,500
The contribution margin ratio can be calculated as follows
= 202,500/450,000
= 0.45×100
= 45%
Therefore the required sales to break even in dollars can be calculated as follows
= 193,500/45
= 4300×100
= $430,000
In general, the production and use of capital ________ the productivity of labor and normally ________ wages. A) enhances; drives up B) enhances; drives down C) diminishes; drives down D) has no effect on; has no effect on
Answer: B. enhances; drives down
Explanation:
Capital are the resources that are used by an organization which can bring about an increase in the production of such organization. Organizations undertake capital investment in order to enhance productivity and also increase revenue.
In such cases, this helps in driving down wages. This is because when an organization uses more of capital in its productive activities, less of labor is required which can help drive down wages.
