What is the average value of a loyal customer

What is the average value of a loyal customer (VLC) in a target market segment if the average purchase price is $65 per visit, the frequency of repurchase is every month, the contribution margin is 21%, and the average customer defection rate is 22%? If a continuous improvement goal is set off an 18% defection rate next year and 14% two years from now, what are the revised VLCs over their average buying life?

For defection rate = 22%, VLC = $

For defection rate = 18%, VLC = $

For defection rate = 14%, VLC = $

Relationships of the aponeuroses and musculature

Below are two diagrams of the anterior abdominal wall, depicting the relationships of the aponeuroses and musculature, either superior or inferior to the arcuate line. Your task is to download these diagrams, correctly identify BOTH images as being superior or inferior to the arcuate line, and annotate (label) the muscles and aponeuroses of the abdominal wall muscles in BOTH images.

 

Your diagram should be labeled, and should include arrows. Labels should only include the structure being denoted, not a sentence or more.

 

no extra information necessary, i.e. do not write paragraphs – all reasoning should be inferred through the labelling and arrows.

*can be drawn by hand (must be neat) OR a stylus OR using .ppt tools, Canva.com, etc.
