Answer:
The only thing that we can know for sure is that the real interest rate on the car loan is 5%.
The real interest rate equals the nominal interest rate - the inflation rate. This formula follows the Fisher Effect proposed by Irving Fisher and used to determine both nominal and real interest rates, and how they relate to the inflation rate.
A fixed asset with a cost of $52,025 and accumulated depreciation of $44,221 is traded for a similar asset priced at $55,501. Assuming a trade-in allowance of $5,664, the recognized loss on the trade is
Answer:
$2,140
Explanation:
When a commercial substance exists in the course of the exchange of an old asset for a new one , the gain or loss on this assets is recognized,
Commercial substance can be said to exist when the exchange assets impact the future cash flow. The extended useful life of the involved assets in the question the the newly acquired asset through exchange support this.
Workings
Cost of the fixed assets = 52,025
Accumulated depreciation = 44,221
Book value = 7,804
Trade in allowance = 5,664
loss = 7,804 - 5664 = 2,140
George's Chemicals allocates overhead based on machine hours. Selected data for the most recent year follow. Estimated manufacturing overhead cost $235,000 Actual manufacturing overhead cost $244,200 Estimated machine hours 20,300 Actual machine hours 22,700 The estimates were made as of the beginning of the year, while the actual results were for the entire year. The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per machine hour is closest to
Answer:
$11.58 per machine hour
Explanation:
Given that: Estimated Manufacturing overhead cost =$235,000, Actual manufacturing overhead cost = $244,200 Estimated machine hours = 20,300, Actual machine hours= 22,700
The predetermined manufacturing overhead rate per machine hour = Estimated manufacturing overhead cost / Estimated machine hours
= $235,000 / 20,300
= $11.5763
= $11.58 per machine hour
Students arrive at the Administrative Services Office at an average of one every 15 minutes, and their requests take on average 10 minutes to be processed. The service counter is staffed by only one clerk, Judy Gumshoes, who works eight hours per day. Assume Poisson arrivals and exponential service times.
a. What percentage of time is Judy idle?
b. How much time, on average, does a student spend waiting in line?
c. How long is the (waiting) line on average?
d. What is the probability that an arriving student (just before entering the Administrative Services Office) will find at least one other student waiting in line?
Answer:
a) %idle time = 0.33
b)40.2minutes
c)40.02customers
d)0.5219
Step-by-step explanation:
It was said in the question Students arrive at the Administrative Services Office at an average of one every 15 minutes which means that
λ = 60/15= 4customers/hr
It was stated that their requests take on average 10 minutes to be processed which means that
μ = average of 10minutes = 60/10 = 6customers/hr
Then let us use these information to solve the given questions
a) percentage when judy was idle = (1- λ/μ)= 1- 0.67= 0.33
%service time = 0.67
%idle time = 0.33
b)To calculate How much time, on average that a student spend waiting in line then we make use of the formula below
= λ/ μ( μ- λ)
= 0.67hrs = 0.67 x60 = 40.2minutes
c) To calculate How long the waiting line on average;
= average waiting time x arrival rate = 0.67hrs x 6customers/hr
= 40.02customers
d) the probability that an arriving student will find at least one other student waiting in line is calculated below;
P( idle time i.e no customer to attend to) = 0.33
P1( Probability of having a customer to attend to) = 0.33 x 0.67= 0.2211
P( Probability of having 2 customer to attend to) = 0.33 x 0.67x0.67 = 0.1481
Therefore, the probability of finding at least one customer = 1 -[ po + p1]
= 1 - 0.33- 0.1481 = 0.5219
Ralph, a cash basis taxpayer, owns an office building that he leases to various tenants. During 20X8, he signed a three-year lease with a tenant and received a check for $16,000 for the following:
Rent for November 1, 2008 to October 1, 2009 $5,000
Advance rent for last three months of lease 600
Security deposit (refundable) 400
For the current year, 2008, Ralph must report income of:__________
a. $6,000
b. $5,600
c. $5,000
d. $832
e. some other amount.
Answer:
b. $5,600
Explanation:
A cash basis taxpayer will report revenues and expenses when they are actually collected or paid for. The business transaction is not directly related to the moment that the payment occurs (unlike accrual accounting).
in this case, Ralph should report all the income related to monthly rental payments = $5,000 (Nov. 2008 - Oct. 2008) + $600 (the three last months of rent) = $5,600. Security deposits are not considered rental revenue, so they should not be reported as such.
S10-5 (book/static) On February 28, 2017, Rural Tech Support purchased a copy machine for $ 53 comma 400. Rural Tech Support expects the machine to last for six years and to have a residual value of $ 3 comma 000. Compute depreciation expense on the machine for the year ended December 31, 2017, using the straight-line method.
Answer:
$7,000
Explanation:
depreciation expense using straight line method = (purchase cost - salvage value) / useful life = ($53,400 - $3,000) / 6 years ) = $8,400 per year
since the machine was used for 10 months, the depreciation expense for 2017 = $8,400 x 10/12 = $7,000
the adjusting journal entry should be:
December 31, 2017, depreciation expense
Dr Depreciation expense 7,000
Cr Accumulated depreciation - copy machine 7,000
The Company uses a periodic inventory system. For specific identification, ending inventory consists of 215 units, where 190 are from the January 30 purchase, 5 are from the January 20 purchase, and 20 are from beginning inventory. Determine the cost assigned to ending inventory and to cost of goods sold using (a) specific identification, (b) weighted average, (c) FIFO, and (d) LIFO.
Answer:
Ending inventory:
(a) specific identification = $2,720(b) weighted average = $2,810.05(c) FIFO = $2,687.50(d) LIFO = $3,010Cost of goods sold:
(a) specific identification = $6,495(b) weighted average = $6,404.95(c) FIFO = $6,527.50(d) LIFO = $6,205Explanation:
Date Activity Units Cost Total
Jan. 1 Beg. inventory 215 $14 $3,010
Jan. 10 Sales 165
Jan. 20 Purchase 160 $13 $2,080
Jan. 25 Sales 190
Jan. 30 Purchase 330 $12.50 $4,125
total Purchases 705 $13.07 $9,215
Ending inventory:
(a) specific identification = (190 x $12.50) + (5 x $13) + (20 x $14) = $2,720
(b) weighted average = 215 x $13.07 = $2,810.05
(c) FIFO = 215 x $12.50 = $2,687.50
(d) LIFO = 215 x $14 = $3,010
Cost of goods sold:
(a) specific identification = $9,215 - $2,720 = $6,495
(b) weighted average = $9,215 - $2,810.05 = $6,404.95
(c) FIFO = $9,215 - $2,687.50 = $6,527.50
(d) LIFO = $9,215 - $3,010 = $6,205
The Purple Martin has annual sales of $687,400, total debt of $210,000, total equity of $365,000, and a profit margin of 5.9 percent. What is the return on assets
Answer:
7.1%
Explanation:
Purple martin has an annual sales of $687,400
The total debt is $210,000
Total equity is $365,000
Profit margin is 5.9%
= 5.9/100
= 0.059
The first step is to calculate the net income
Net income= sales×profit margin
= $687,400×0.059
= $40,556.6
The next step is to calculate the total assets
Total assets= Total debt+Total equity
= $210,000+$365,000
= $575,000
Therefore, the return on assets can be calculated as follows
ROA= Net income/Total assets
= 40,556.6/575,000
= 0.0705×100
= 7.1%
Hence the return on assets is 7.1%
Use the following information to work the problems. Each problem stands alone.
Bernard Windows is a small company that installs windows. Its cost structure is as follows:
Selling price for each window installation $500
Variable cost of each window installation $400
Annual fixed costs $150,000
#1. This is also TRY IT 3-2 on page 75.
Calculate (a) the breakeven point in units and revenue and (b) the number of windows Bernard Windows must install and the revenues needed to earn a target operating income of $100,000.
#2. TRY IT 3-3 on page 77.
Same information as above but now tax rate is 30%. Calculate the number of windows Bernard Windows must install and the revenues needed to earn a target net income of $63,000.
#3. TRY IT 3-4 on page 82. Calculate the margin of safety in units and dollars and the margin of safety percentage if the company expects to sell 2,400 windows in the year.

#5. TEY IT 3-6 on page 87.
Bernard Windows plans to sell two different brands of windows-- Chad and Musk--- and budgets the following:
Chad Musk Total
Expected sales 2500 1000 3500
Revenues (500 and 350 per unit) $1,250,000 $350,000 $1,600,000
Variable cost ( 400 and 275 per unit) $1,000,000 $275,000 $1,275,000
Contribution margin (100 and 75 ) 250,000 $75,000 $325,000
Fixed costs $195,000
Operating income $130,000
Calculate the break even point for Bernard Windows in terms of the (a) number of units sold and (b) revenues.
Answer:
1.(a). Breakeven point (in units) = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit
Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
= 500 - 400 = 100 per unit
Breakeven point = 150,000 / 100 per unit
Breakeven point = 1500 units
Breakeven point ( in revenue) = Fixed Cost / Contribution margin ratio
Contribution margin ratio = ( Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit) / Selling price per unit ×100
= ($500 - $400) / $500 ×100
= 20%
Breakeven point ( in revenue) = $150,000 / 20%
Breakeven point ( in revenue) = $750,000
(b). Let x be the unknown quantity of units Bernard Windows must sell to earn an operating income of $100,000. Selling price is $500
Revenue - Variable cost - Fixed cost = operating income
($500 * x) - ($400*x) - $150,000 = $100,000
($100* x) = $250,000
x = $250,000 / $100 per unit = 2,500 units
Quantity of units required to be sold = 2,500 units
Revenue to earn an operating income of $100,000 is
Revenue = Number of units required to be sold * Selling Price
Revenue = 2,500 * $500 = $1,250,000
2. Target operating income = Target net income / (1 - Tax Rate)
= $63,000 / (1 - 0.30)
= $90,000
In other words, to earn a target net income of $63,000, Bernard Windows Target operating income is $90,000.
Proof: Target operating income $90,000
Tax at 30% ( $90,000*0.30) $27,000
Target net income $63,000
Calculation of number of units Bernard Windows must sell:
Quantity of units required to be sold = Fixed cost + Target operating income / Contribution margin per unit
= $150,000 + $90,000 / $100 = $2,400 units
Quantity of units required to be sold = 2,400 units
Revenue to earn net income of $63,000 is:
Revenue = Number of units required to be sold * Selling price
= 2,400 * $500
Revenue = $1,200,000
3. Margin of Safety = Budgeted revenue - Breakeven revenue
= $1,200,000 - $750,000
Margin of Safety = $450,000
Margin of safety (in units) = Budgeted Sales (units) - Breakeven Sales (units)
= 2,400 - 1,500
Margin of safety (in units) = 900 units
The margin of safety indicated that sales would have to decrease by 900 units and revenue by $450,000 before the breakeven point is reached.
Margin of safety percentage = Margin of safety in dollars / Budgeted revenues
= $450,000 / $1,200,000 * 100 = 37.5%
This result means that revenue would have to decrease substantially, by 60%, to reach the breakeven revenues.
5. Let we assume that the budgeted sales mix (2,500 units of chad windows sold for every 1,000 units of Musk windows sold, that is a ratio of 5:2) will not change at different levels of total unit sales.
Number of units of Contribution Margin
Chad Windows and per unit for Chad Windows
Musk Windows in and Mask Windows Contribution
each bundle margin the bundle
Chad Windows 5 $100 $500
Musk windows 2 $75 $150
Total $650
To calculate breakeven point, we calculate the number of bundles Bernard needs to sell.
Breakeven point in bundles = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per bundle
= $195,000 / $650 = 300 bundles
a. Breakeven point in units of Chad Windows and Musk windows is as follows:
Chad windows: 300 bundles× 5 units per bundle = 1,500 units
Musk windows: 300 bundles ×2 units per bundle = 600 units
Total number of units to breakeven = 1,500 + 600 = 2,100 units
b. The breakeven point in dollars for Chad windows and Musk windows is as follows:
Chad windows: 1,500 units × $500 per unit = $750,000
Musk windows: 600 units ×$350 per unit = $210,000
Breakeven revenue = $750,000 + $210,000 = $960,000
The monopolist should NEVER produce in the Question 10 options: range of output for which there is a price elasticity exceeding one. range of output for which the price elasticity of demand is infinity. elastic segment of its demand curve because it can increase total revenue and reduce total cost by lowering price. inelastic segment of its demand curve because further lowering of the price reduces total revenue.
Answer:
inelastic segment of its demand curve because further lowering of the price reduces total revenue
Explanation:
Monopolistic competition is a state of the industry that deals with several firms that are closely linked to each other but offer distinct goods. In fact, this market provides free entry and exit
Therefore the monopolist never produced inelastic section of the demand curve as the price should be decline that results into fall in the total revenue
Hence, the last option is correct

b. What are the net requirements for each item? (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required.)
Item Net Requirements
X
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of net requirements for each item is shown below:-
Net requirement = Gross requirement - Inventory
To compute the Gross requirement we will use the following formulas:
A = 5 × Net requirement of X
= 5 × 127
= 635
B = 2 × Net requirement of X
= 2 × 127
= 254
C = 3 × Net requirement of X
= 3 × 127
= 381
D = 3 × Net requirement of B
= 3 × 180
= 540
E = 2 × Net requirement of B
= 2 × 180
= 360
F = 4 × Net requirement of C
= 4 × 358
= 1,432
G = 1 × Net requirement of C
= 1 × 358
= 358
Item Gross Requirement Inventory Net Requirement
X 127 1 127
A 635 19 616
B 254 74 180
C 381 23 358
D 540 201 339
E 360 262 98
F 1,432 975 457
G 358 100 258
Therefore we have applied the net requirement formula.

Risk and Return. Suppose that the risk premium on stocks and other securities did, in fact, rise with total risk (i.e., the variability of returns) rather than just market risk. Explain how investors could exploit the situation to create portfolios with high expected rates of return but low levels of risk. (LO12-2)
Answer:
The overview of the given scenario is described in the explanation segment below.
Explanation:
Diversification could never eradicate the systematic risk. It's indeed primarily even though all securities shift somewhat in unison (a significant part of their volatility is purposeful) also that diversified stock strategies remain volatile. Additionally, if I am a thing that separates by purchasing a proportion throughout the S & P indicator, I would also have indeed very variable returns because the global economy as a whole has been fluctuating widely.The unsystematic risk seems to be the volatility in share markets arising through factors unique to something like an individual's abilities. The risk involved with this kind of volatility is essentially the form whereby diversification could increasing.The entire premise of portfolio selection would be that, to both the degree that shares don't shift in unison all of the occasions, variations throughout the performance from every other given sector appear to have been wiped clean or softened out by additional differences in contributions from several other investments.The Horstmeyer Corporation commenced operations early in 2018.

Fiona, a regional sales manager, works from her office in State U. Her region includes several states, as indicated in the sales report below. Fiona is compensated through straight commissions on the sales in her region and a fully excludable cafeteria plan conveying various fringe benefits to her. Determine how much of Fiona’s $250,000 commissions and $75,000 fringe benefit package is assigned to the payroll factor of State U.
State Sales Generated Fiona’s Time Spent There
U $3,000,000 20%
V 4,000,000 50%
X 8,000,000 30%
Answer:
Payroll factor State U:
commissions $50,000fringe benefit package $15,000Explanation:
State Sales Generated Fiona’s Time Spent There
U $3,000,000 20%
V $4,000,000 50%
X $8,000,000 30%
Sales percentage generated in state U = $3,000,000 / $15,000,000 = 20%
so 20% of the $250,000 commissions should be assigned to state U = $50,000
Time spent in state U = 20% x $75,000 fringe benefits = $15,000 assigned to state U
A stock has an expected return of 15.0 percent, its beta is 0.90, and the risk-free rate is 5.3 percent. What must the expected return on the market be
Answer:
16.07%
Explanation:
The computation of the expected return on the market is shown below
As we know that
Expected Return on stock = Risk free return + beta ( Expected Market Rate of Return - Risk free return )
15 % = 5.3% + 0.90 × (Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3%)
15 % - 5.3% ÷ 0.90 = Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3%
10.77% = Expected Market Rate of Return - 5.3 %
So, expected market rate of return is
= 10.77 + 5.3%
= 16.07%

Year 3_____
Year 4______
NPW_____
Answer:
Year 0 = -$500,000
Year 1 = $130,580
Year 2 = $150,980
Year 3 = $136,980
Year 4 = $433,260
NPV = $65,495
Explanation:
depreciation expense per year under 7 year MACRS table:
year 1 = $500,000 x 14.29% = $71,450
year 2 = $500,000 x 24.49% = $122,450
year 3 = $500,000 x 17.49% = $87,450
year 4 = $500,000 x 12.49% = $62,450
cash flow year 1 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $71,450) x (1 - 40%)] + $71,450 = $130,580
cash flow year 2 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $122,450) x (1 - 40%)] + $122,450 = $150,980
cash flow year 3 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $87,450) x (1 - 40%)] + $87,450 = $136,980
cash flow year 4 = [($200,000 - $30,000 - $62,450 + $93,800 gain on sale) x (1 - 40%)] + $62,450 + $250,000 = $433,260
MARR = 15%
using a financial calculator, NPV = $65,495

Medium of exchangeExplanation:
Money's four functions are:
Medium of exchange = you can use money to purchase or sells goods and services. Unit of account = money helps us to understand the relative value of goods and services, since the higher the price, the higher the value of a good or service is. Store of value = you can save money for future useStandard of deferred payment = money allows people to take or hand out loans that will be repaid in the futureLarkspur Appliance Co. manufactures low-price, no frills appliances that are in great demand for rental units. Pricing and cost information on Larkspur main products are as follows. Item Standalone Selling Price (Cost) Refrigerator $500 ($260 ) Range 570(270 ) Stackable washer/dryer unit 690(400 ) Customers can contract to purchase either individually at the stated prices or a three-item bundle with a price of $1,800.The bundle price includes delivery and installation. Larkspur also provides installation (not a separate performance obligation). Respond to the requirements related to the following independent revenue arrangements for Larkspur Appliance Co. On June 1, 2017, Larkspur sold 100 washer/dryer units without installation to Laplante Rentals for $69,000. Laplante is a newer customer and is unsure how this product will work in its older rental units. Larkspur offers a 60-day return privilege and estimates, based on prior experience with sales on this product, 4% of the units will be returned. Prepare the journal entries for the sale and related cost of goods sold on June 1, 2017. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when the amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
Answer:
The journal entries to record the sale on June 1 are:
June 1, 2017, 100 units of washer/dryer to Laplante Rentals
Dr Cash 69,000
Cr Sales revenue 69,000
Dr Cost of goods sold 40,000
Cr Inventory 40,000
If the next question asks to record the return privilege and estimates, it should be recorded as both an asset (estimated returns inventory) and a liability (customer refunds payable).
Kuhn company is considering a new project that will require an initial investment of $4 million. It has a target capital structure of 58% debt, 6% preferred stock and 36% common equity. Kuhn has noncallable bonds outstanding that mature in 15 years with a face value of $1,000, an annual coupon rate of 11%, and a market price of $1,555.38. The yield on the company's current bonds is a good approximation of the yield on any new bonds that it issues. The company can sell shares of preferred stock that pay an annual dividend of $8 at a price of $92.25 per share. You can assume that Jordan does not incur any flotation costs when issuing debt and preferred stock. Kuhn does not have any retained earnings available to finance this project, so the firm will have to issue new common stock to help fund it. Its common stock is currently selling for $33.35 per share, and it is expected to pay a dividend of $2.78 at the end of next year. Flotation costs will represent 8% of the funds raised by issuing new common stock. The company is projected to grow at a constant rate of 9.2%, and they face a tax rate of 40%. What is Kuhn's WACC for this project? Please show work.
a. 7.65%
b. 9.00%
c. 10.35%
d. 9.45%
Answer:
b. 9.00%
Explanation:
For the computation of WACC first we need to follow some steps which is shown below:-
Step 1
Cost of debt = 5.48% which is explained with the help of attachment.
Given that,
Present value = $1,555.38
Future value or Face value = $1,000
PMT = 1,000 × 11% = $110
NPER = 15 years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the cost of debt is
Step 2
Cost of preferred stock = Annual preferred dividend ÷ Price
= $8 × $92.25
= 0.086721
Step 3
Cost of equity = Dividend ÷ (Stock price × (1 - flotation cost)) + Growth rate
= 2.78 ÷ (33.35 × (1 - 0.08)) + 0.092
= 18.26%
WACC = Weight of debt × Cost debt) + (Weight of preference stock × Cost of preference stock) + (Weight of equity × cost of equity)
= (0.58 × (0.0548 × (1 - 0.4)) + (0.06 × 0.086721) + (0.36 × 0.1826068)
= 9.00%
Kuhn's WACC for this project will be 9.00%.
Based on the information given, the cost of preferred stock will be:
= Annual preferred dividend / Price
= $8 / $92.25
= 0.086721
Then, the cost of equity will be calculated as:
= Dividend ÷ (Stock price × (1 - flotation cost)) + Growth rate
= 2.78 ÷ (33.35 × (1 - 0.08)) + 0.092
= 18.26%
Therefore, the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) will be:
= (0.58 × (0.0548 × (1 - 0.4)) + (0.06 × 0.086721) + (0.36 × 0.1826068)
= 9.00%
Therefore, Kuhn's WACC for this project will be 9.00%.

A U.S.-based company, Global Products Inc., has wholly owned subsidiaries across the world. Global Products Inc. sells products linked to major holidays in each country.
The president and board members of Global Products Inc. believe that the managers of their wholly owned country-level subsidiaries are best motivated and rewarded with both annual salaries and annual bonuses. The bonuses are calculated as a predetermined percentage of pretax annual income.
Señora Larza, the president of Global Products of Mexico, has worked hard this year to make her Mexican subsidiary profitable. She is looking forward to receiving her annual bonus, which is calculated as a predetermined percentage (15 percent) of this year's pretax annual income earned by Global Products of Mexico. A condensed income statement for Global Products of Mexico for the most recent year is as follows (amounts in thousands of pesos).
Sales MXN 25,000
Expenses 23,000
Pretax Income MXN 2,000
The U.S. headquarters financial group translates each of its wholly owned subsidiary's results into U.S. dollars for evaluation. After translating the Mexican pesos income statement into U.S. dollars, the condensed income statement for Global Products of Mexico is as follows (amounts in thousands of dollars).
Sales US $7,000
Expenses 8,100
Pretax Income US $(1,100)
Required:
A1. Calculate the bonus amount based on (1) the Mexican peso-based Pretax Income and (2) the U.S. dollar-based Pretax Income.
A2. Translate the peso-based bonus to U.S. dollars using a current exchange rate.
B. Calculate the average exchange rate used to translate the Mexican pesos income statement into the U.S. dollar statement for the categories: (1) Sales and (2) Expenses.

A1. Bonus on mexican peso-based Pretax Income
= MXN 2,000 x 15% = MXN 300
Bonus U.S. dollar-based Pretax Income
= -$1,100 x 15% = -$165, there is no U.S. dollar-based bonus
A2. U.S. dollars
Current Exchange rate = US$1 = MXN 20.0369 (July 18, 2020)
MXN 2,000 = MXN 2,000/MXN 20.0369 = $98.19
B. Average exchange rate for sales pesos
Sales MXN 25,000 = US $7,000,
The exchange rate = US $1 = MXN 3.5714 (MXN 25,000/ US $7,000)
Average exchange rate for expenses pesos
Expenses MXN 23,000 = US $ 8,100
The exchange rate = US $1 = MXN 2.8395 (MXN 23,000/US $ 8,100)
Explanation:
Señora Larza, the president of Global Products of Mexico seems to have a bonus in Mexican peso, but when the bonus pre-tax income is translated into US dollars, the bonus turns negative just like the pre-tax income was negative. This implies that since the U.S. headquarters translates each subsidiary's results into U.S. dollars for evaluation, Señora Larza did not qualify for bonus payment for the current year.
The disparity is caused by the different exchange rates for translating the sales revenue and the expenses. Exchange rates are the rates at which currencies exchange their values for international account settlements.

Total cash disbursement= $40,210
Where would it be right to apply the product concept?
Answer:
In marketing
Explanation:
The Product concept is the understanding of the best features of a product which a marketer wishes to sell. Before a product is sold, it is very important that the marketer gets a proper understanding of the product.
