Answer:
Pricing
Explanation:
4 ingredients of marketing mix are Pricing, Product, Place and Promotion(the 4Ps).
Pricing- is for determining the value that is put on a product including rebates. Deciding the correct intrinsic value of a product puts a lot of factors into consideration like the target market, the consumer willingness to pay, whether it is sufficient enough for the company to make a profit out of it.
Product - answers the what; the actually good or service being offered for sale.
Place- answers the where; the location of product so customers can buy it.
Promotion- any activities to inform the target market that the product exist, how to use it etc. this includes advertisement, word of mouth among others.
b) According to the Sharpe ratio, which fund performed better?
Answer:
a) 0.9 & 1
b) Mutual Fund B
Explanation:
For starters, I will define what Sharpe ratio is.....
Sharpe ratio is tagged, the measure of risk-adjusted return of a financial portfolio. It is worthy if note that on the average, a portfolio with a higher Sharpe ratio is considered superior relative to its peers.
You the question, the Sharpe ratios would be calculated as follows:
(Return of portfolio - risk free rate) / standard deviation.
So, for Mutual Fund A:
A = (12% - 3%) / 10%
A = 9% / 10%
A = 0.9
For Mutual Fund B:
B = (10% - 3%) / 7%
B = 7% / 7 %
B = 1
Although the Mutual Fund in A is calculated to have a higher return, the Mutual Fund B is laced with a higher risk-adjusted return.
Answer: c. 5 bolts.
Explanation:
From the graph we see that the opportunity cost of making 80 nails is 20 bolts.
Opportunity cost of making 1 nail is;
80/80 : 20/80
1 : ¼
If 1 nail has an opportunity cost of ¼ bolts then making 20 extra nails would cost;
= 20 * ¼
= 5 bolts.

Answer:
15600 , 13600
Explanation:
Annual Depreciation = [Cost of Asset - Salvage Value] / Expected use years
Year 1 Beginning : Cost = $82000 , Salvage Value = $4000, Years = 5
So, Annual Depreciation = [82000 - 4000] / 5
= 78000 / 5 = 15600
Year 4 Beginning : {3 Years gone, 2 years left}
Asset Value remaining = Cost - [(Annual Depreciation)(Years)]
= 82000 - [(15600)(3)]
= 82000 - 46800 = 35200
Dep. = [Cost - Scrap Value] / Years
= [35200 - 8000] / 2
= 27200/2 = 13600

The correct answer is the option A: Chemical analysis.

To begin with, a chemical analysis consists in the study of chemical composition and structure of substances and it refers to the field of chemistryas its name indicates so therefore that it does not implicate the allocation of joint costs as all of the other methods. Moreover, this type of analysis is considered to be the principal basis technique by which every chemical information is obtanied and there are also two main brances in it, the qualitative and quantitative analysis.
