    Description: In 1994, Sturmfels gave a polyhedral version of the Cayley Trick of elimination theory: he established an order-preserving bijection between the posets of \emph{coherent} mixed subdivisions of a Minkowski sum $\mathcal{A}_1+\cdots+\mathcal{A}_r$ of point configurations and of \emph{coherent} polyhedral subdivisions of the associated Cayley embedding $\mathcal{C}(\mathcal{A}_1,\dots,\mathcal{A}_r)$. In this paper we extend this correspondence in a natural way to cover also \emph{non-coherent} subdivisions. As an application, we show that the Cayley Trick combined with results of Santos on subdivisions of Lawrence polytopes provides a new independent proof of the Bohne-Dress Theorem on zonotopal tilings. This application uses a combinatorial characterization of lifting subdivisions, also originally proved by Santos.
