View answer resolution

【Answer to question 1】A

【analysis】

A is correct. A company that follows a product or service differentiation strategy needs to emphasize market research to identify and match customer needs with product development and marketing for which customers are willing to pay a premium.

【Answer to question 2】C

【analysis】

C is correct. Initial equity (%) in the margin transaction = 1/Leverage ratio = 1/1.66 = 0.60. Initial equity per share at the time of purchase = $36 × 0.60 = $21.60 Price (P) at which margin call occurs: Equity per share/Price per share = Maintenance margin (%)

Equity Investments:Market Organization and Structure

A is incorrect. It simply takes (1 – maintenance margin %) of the initial price as the critical price for margin call: $36 × (1 – 0.3) = $25.20.

B is incorrect. The mistake is in taking 0.40 as the initial equity. Initial equity per share at the time of purchase = $36 × 0.40 = $14.40 Price at which margin call occurs:

Equity per share/Price per share = Maintenance margin %
