Customer relationship management can be defined as a strategic process which typically involves combining strategies, techniques, practices and technology so as to effectively and efficiently manage their customer data in order to improve and enhance customer satisfaction. Thus, this set of employees are saddled with the responsibility of ensuring the customer are satisfied and happy with their service at all times.
This ultimately implies that, customer relationship management is focused on developing an ongoing connection between a business firm (organization) and all of its customers, as well as potential customers.
Hence, it is very important for Prime Computers to encourage customer feedback on its website and as a policy because most online shoppers (customers) usually engage in an online search in order to see other customer's ratings and reviews of company's product or service before making major purchase decisions.
The net income reported on the income statement of Cutler Co. was $2,460,000. There were 50,000 shares of $18 par common stock and 20,000 shares of $5 preferred stock outstanding throughout the current year. The income statement included a gain on discontinued operations of $300,000 after applicable income tax.
a. Determine the per-share figure for common stock for income before discontinued operations. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
$ per share
b. Determine the per-share figure for common stock for net income. Round your answer to the nearest cent.
$ per share
Answer and Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The earning per share is
= (PAT - income tax discontinued operations - Preference dividend) ÷ number of common stock
= ($2,460,000 - $300,000 - (20,000 × $5)) ÷ (50,000 shares)
= $41.2 per share
b. The earning per share is
= (PAT - Preference dividend) ÷ number of common stock
= ($2,460,000 - (20,000 × $5)) ÷ (50,000 shares)
= $47.2 per share
Which set of items appears on the loan estimate
Lindon Company is the exclusive distributor for an automotive product that sells for $54.00 per unit and has a CM ratio of 30%. The company’s fixed expenses are $388,800 per year. The company plans to sell 28,600 units this year. Required: 1. What are the variable expenses per unit? (Round your "per unit" answer to 2 decimal places.) 2. What is the break-even point in unit sales and in dollar sales? 3. What amount of unit sales and dollar sales is required to attain a target profit of $226,800 per year? 4. Assume that by using a more efficient shipper, the company is able to reduce its variable expenses by $5.40 per unit. What is the company’s new break-even point in unit sales and in dollar sales? What dollar sales is required to attain a target profit of $226,800?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the unitary variable cost:
Unitary variable cost= (1 - Contribution margin ratio)*selling price
Unitary variable cost= 0.70*54
Unitary variable cost= $37.8
Now, the break-even point in units and dollars:
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 388,800 / (54 - 37.8)
Break-even point in units= 24,000
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 388,800 / 0.3
Break-even point (dollars)= $1,296,000
If the desired profit is $226,800; the following formula is required:
Break-even point in units= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= (338,800 + 226,800) / 16.2
Break-even point in units= 34,914
Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 565,600 / 0.3
Break-even point (dollars)= $1,885,333
Finally, if the variable cost per unit decreases by $5.4:
Unitary variable cost= $32.4
Break-even point in units= 388,800 / (54 - 32.4)
Break-even point in units= 18,000
Contribution margin ratio= unitary CM / Selling price
Contribution margin ratio= 21.6/54= 0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 388,800 / 0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= 972,000
Break-even point (dollars)= (fixed costs + desired profit) / contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= (388,800 + 226,800) / 0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= $1,539,000

Explanation:
Mia and Mario specialize in producing the item in which she or he has a comparative advantage. Then they trade one pasta dish for one pizza.. Before specialization and trade, Mia and Mario produce 4 dishes of pasta and 4 pizzas an hour each. What are the total gains from specialization and trade?
Answer:
4, 4
Explanation:
Now mia has comparative advantage in pasta production while Mario has advantage in pizza making
Before they both specialized, one was making 4 pizza and 4 pasta while the other made 4 pasta and 4 pizza.
Total pizza made = 8
Total pasta made = 8
After they specialized,
Maria makes 4 + 8 = 12 pizza
Mia makes 4+8 = 12 pizza
12-8= 4
So they both make 4 more pasta and 4 more pizza

Two alternatives for a construction project are being considered. Both projects have a 5-year life. Alternative A's initial cost is $2,260 and yields $355 annually for 5 years. Alternative B initially costs $5500 and yields $1,250 annually for 5 years. The rate of return on the difference between the alternatives is approximately
Answer:
The rate of return on the difference between the alternatives is approximately 38.12%.
Explanation:
Alternative A's initial cost = $2,260
Alternative A's total yields for 5 years = $355 * 5 = $1,775
Alternative B's initial cost = $5,500
Alternative B's total yields for 5 years = $1,250 * 5 = $6,250
Difference between initial costs of A and B = Alternative B's initial cost - Alternative B's initial cost = $5,500 - $2,260 = $3,240
Difference between total yields for 5 years of A and B = Alternative B's total yields for 5 years - Alternative A's total yields for 5 years = $6,250 - $1,775 = $4,475
Rate of return on the difference between the alternatives = (Difference between total yields for 5 years of A and B - Difference between initial costs of A and B) / Difference between initial costs of A and B = ($4,475 - $3,240) / $3,240 = 0.3812, or 38.12%
Therefore, the rate of return on the difference between the alternatives is approximately 38.12%.

Suppose that the price of a cupcake is $4. At this price, 50 cupcakes will be demanded. If the price rises to $5 per cupcake, consumer surplus will
Answer: fall by less than $50.
Explanation:
The options are:
• fall by more than $50.
• fall by less than $50.
• rise by less than $50.
• rise by more than $50.
Expert Answer
Consumer surplus, is referred to as the economic measure of the excess benefit that a customer gets. The consumer surplus is the difference between the amount that the customer is willing to pay and the amount that he or she eventually pays.
Based on the question, the total Price paid is: 50 × $4 = $200
Total Revised Price = 50 × $5 = $250
Therefore, there will be a fall by $50 that's ($250 - $200).
You’ve borrowed $21,518 on margin to buy shares in Ixnay, which is now selling at $40.6 per share. You invest 1,060 shares. Your account starts at the initial margin requirement of 50%. The maintenance margin is 35%. Two days later, the stock price changes to $38 per share. a. Will you receive a margin call?
Answer:
a. No, you will NOT receive a margin call.
b. The price at which you will receive the margin call is $31.23 per share.
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete as the part b of the requirement is omitted. To complete the question, the omitted part b is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
b. At what price will you receive the margin call?
The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
a. Will you receive a margin call?
Margin loan = $21,518
Total amount invested = Number shares purchased * Selling price per share when purchased = 1,060 * $40.60 = $43,036
Initial equity = Total amount invested - Margin loan = $43,036 - $21,518 = $21,518
Market value of the stock two days later = Number shares purchased * Selling price per share two days later = 1,060 * $38 = $40,280
New equity = Market value of the stock two days later - Margin loan = $40,280 - $21,518 = $18,762
Percentage margin = New equity / Market value of the stock two days later = $18,762 / $40,280 = 0.4658, or 46.58%
Since your percentage margin of 46.58% is lower than the new required maintenance margin of 35%, you will NOT receive a margin call.
b. At what price will you receive the margin call?
Price to receive the margin call = (Margin loan / (100% - Maintenance margin after two days)) / Number of shares purchased = ($21,518 / (100% - 35%)) / 1,060 = $31.23
Therefore, the price at which you will receive the margin call is $31.23 per share.

Assume that Guardian Company uses a periodic inventory system and has these account balances: Purchases $500,000; Purchase Returns and Allowances $14,000; Purchase Discounts $9,000; and Freight-in $15,000. Determine net purchases and cost of goods purchased.
Answer:
Net purchases:
= Purchases - Purchase Returns and Allowances - Purchase Discount
= 500,000 - 14,000 - 9,000
= $477,000
Cost of goods sold:
= Net purchase + Freight-in
= 477,000 + 15,000
= $492,000
Bunkhouse Electronics is a recently incorporated firm that makes electronic entertainment systems. Its earnings and dividends have been growing at a rate of 36.0%, and the current dividend yield is 8.00%. Its beta is 1.32, the market risk premium is 14.00%, and the risk-free rate is 2.80%.
Required:
a. Use the CAPM to estimate the firm’s cost of equity. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
b. Now use the constant growth model to estimate the cost of equity. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a whole percent.)
c. Which of the two estimates is more reasonable?
Answer:
a. Calculation of the firm's cost of equity using CAPM
Required rate of return (Cost of equity) = Risk free rate + Beta*Market risk premium

When the market for ___________ money is drawn with the value of money on the vertical axis and the quantity of money on the horizontal axis, the price level increases if money demand shifts _____________
Answer:
money demand; leftward
Explanation:
Money demand depends upon the interest rate as well as the price level.
When the money market is been drawn with a value of the money on the [tex]\text{vertical axis}[/tex], the quantity of money demanded is increased and the price level also increases. Also the curve slopes downward. But it decreases the the money supply as well as the price level.
When the money demand shifts towards left or when the money supply shifts rightwards, the price level increases.

Ana is training for a triathlon, a timed race that combines swimming, biking, and running. While Ana usually practices swimming for two hours per day, she decides to continue for an additional hour because the pool is less crowded than usual today allowing her practice time to be more productive. Which basic principle of individual choice does Valerie's plan illustrate that her husband's advice does not?
a. Resources are scarce.
b. All decisions involve opportunity costs.
c. Decisions are made at the margin.
d. People usually exploit opportunities to make themselves better off.
Answer:
c. Decisions are made at the margin.
Explanation:
It is better to make a trade-off when someone compares the costs with that of the benefits of doing something. The [tex]\text{decisions about whether one must do a bit more or a bit less of an activity}[/tex] are called marginal decisions. Making the [tex]\text{trade-offs at the margin}[/tex] means comparing its costs as well as its benefits of an activity by doing it a little bit more versus doing a little bit less.
In the context, Ana is making decision at the margin when she decides to practice one hour extra and improve her swimming performance as the event of triathlon is approaching.
Thus, option (d) is correct.

_ refers to exploiting price differences on identical or similar goods, services, assets or factors in different markets. Group of answer choices Externalization Internalization Rationalization Arbitrage Speculation
Answer:
Arbitrage
Explanation:
Arbitrage refers to exploiting price differences on identical or similar goods, services, assets or factors in different markets.
This ultimately implies that, arbitrage allows an individual to profit from the price difference between similar goods, commodity, securities or currency in different markets.
Basically, an individual might decide to almost simultaneously purchase a financial instrument such as a commodity, securities or currency and sell it in a different form or market.
For example, if a stock is trading at £80 on the London Stock Exchange (LSE) while it is trading for £81 on the Nigeria Stock Exchange (NSE) at the same time. John buy the stock on the LSE and sells the same shares immediately on the NSE and earns a profit of £1 per share. Thus, this is simply an arbitrage.
In conclusion, an arbitrage is a type of trade that is caused as a result of market inefficiency.
Consider the future value of $1 in 10 periods when the interest rate is 5%. When the interest rate doubles to 10%, the future value: Increases but by less than double Exactly doubles Increases by more than double Cannot be determined a
Answer: Increases but by less than double
Explanation:
The formula for future value will be calculated as:
FV = PV (1 + r )^n
When interest rate = 5%, then the future value will be:
= 1 × (1 + 5%)^10
= 1 × (1 + 0.05)^10
= 1 × (1.05)^10
= 1.63
When Interest rate is 10%, then the future value will be:
= 1 × (1 + 10%)^10
= 1 × (1 + 0.10)^10
= 1 × (1.10)^10
= 2.59
Therefore, the answer is "Increases but by less than double"

Weeks 2 – 8 = Previous Week Inventory + MPS – (Forecast: Customer Order)
Because the problem says we cannot have any negative inventory, then we require MPS shipments to come in. When a shipment comes in, it is in lots of 100. In this problem, MPS will be added for Weeks 1,2,3 and Weeks 5, 6, 7. No MPS shipments are expected in Week 4 or Week 8.
