Sales Budget Assume that Stillwater Designs produces two automotive subwoofers: S12L7 and S12L5. The S12L7 sells for $475, and the S12L5 sells for $300. Projected sales (number of speakers) for the coming five quarters are as follows:

S12L7 S12L5
First quarter, 20Y1 800 1,300
Second quarter, 20Y1 2,200 1,400
Third quarter, 20Y1 5,600 5,300
Fourth quarter, 20Y1 4,600 3,900

First quarter, 20Y2 900 1,200 The vice president of sales believes that the projected sales are realistic and can be achieved by the company.

Prepare a sales budget for each quarter of 20Y1 and for the year in total. Show sales by product and in total for each time period. Do not include a multiplication symbol as part of your answer.

Consider two cigarette companies, pm inc. and brown inc. if neither company advertises, the two companies split the market and earn $50 million each. if they both advertise, they again split the market, but profits are lower by $10 million since each company must bear the cost of advertising. yet if one company advertises while the other does not, the one that advertises attracts customers from the other. in this case, the company that advertises earns $60 million while the company that does not advertise earns only $30 million. if these two companies collude and agree upon the best joint strategy, a. neither company will advertise. b. both companies will advertise. c. pm inc. will advertise but brown inc. will not. d. brown inc. will advertise but pm inc. will not.
