If wealth increases, the demand for stocks ________ and that of long-term bonds ________, everything else held constant.

Selling the defective units as they are would generate $500 while reworking them would cost an additional $750. On selling the reworked units for $1500, the company would still make a loss of $250. Therefore, it's best to sell the units as they are.

The company incurred a cost of $1,000 to produce 500 units, if it sells the units as they are, defective, it earns $1 * 500 units = $500. Reworking the units would cost an extra $1.50 * 500 units = $750. After reworking the units, they can be sold for $1,500, which results in profit of $1,500 - ($1,000 original cost + $750 reworking cost) = -$250. If these costs are considered, it seems the company should sell the defective units as they are rather than reworking them due to additional costs that exceed their revenue.

Reworking the defective units results in a smaller loss ($250) compared to selling them as is ($500). Therefore, the company should choose to rework the defective units.

Handling Defective Units

Given the company's situation, it needs to decide between two options: selling the defective units as is or reworking them. Here are the calculations for both options:

Option 1: Selling Defective Units As Is

Option 2: Reworking the Units

Summary: Reworking the units results in a lower loss ($250) compared to selling them as is ($500). Therefore, the company should choose to rework the defective units.

Answer:  

redlining                                            

Explanation:

Redlining refers to an unethical technique that puts facilities (financial and other as such) out of control from race, ethnicity or gender for residents of some specific areas.

Instead of personal credentials and ability to repay, redlining can be viewed in the systemic refusal of loans, mortgages, insurances and other location-based financial services. In particular, members of minority areas worry the most about the strategy of redlining.

Thus, from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B .

The discriminatory practice of a lender refusing to make loans based on property location is known as redlining.

A lender who refuses to make loans on property in certain neighborhoods is demonstrating the discriminatory practice of redlining. Redlining is the intentional and discriminatory withholding of services, such as loans, to residents of certain areas based on racial or ethnic makeup. Banks and other financial institutions practiced redlining by refusing to issue mortgages or loans to people from racial or ethnic minorities living in neighborhoods that were deemed "hazardous" to investment, while providing such services to White people with similar economic status. This practice has been illegal and contributes to the institutional discrimination that perpetuates educational and financial disparities across different communities.

Answer:

b. marginal revenue is $5 for the competitive firm and less than $5 for the monopolist. 

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services.

Firms in a perfect competition are price takers. Price is set by forces of demand and supply.

In a perfect competition, price = marginal cost = marginal revenue =$5.

A monopoly is when there's only one firm in the industry.

A monopoly firm is fhe price setter.

In a monopoly, price is greater than marginal revenue. Therefore, the marginal revenue is less than $5.

I hope my answer helps you.

Answer: B. Marginal Revenue is $5 for the competitive firm and less than $5 for the monopolost

Explanation: Perfect competition firms are large number of buyers & sellers , homogeneous products & uniform prices , perfect information .

Monopolist refer to a single seller catering many buyers with no close substitues & restricted entry , being the price maker . Eg : Indian national railways

MR Additional revenue from additional unit sold , AR Average revenue per no. of units sold

Average Revenue curve is the demand curve .

** In case of perfect competition , AR = MR = demand curve (as this curve is horizontal parallel to x axis because of uniform price & perfectly elastic demand )

This implies that any amount of goods can be sold at prevailing uniform price .

** In case of monopolist , demand / AR curve is simply downward sloping (just as per law of demand) and the MR curve lies below it . Such because MR falls more steeply , has more slope than AR curve because of the former being affected by singular additional units & the latter being affected by all the units sold .

Answer:

B) The promise to pay in the event of a covered claim

Explanation:

The promise to pay in the happening of a covered claim apparently describes the promise to pay in the process of covered claim. In insurance matter of contracts, the insurer assures to pay for covered losses which the insured suffers and the insured promises to do what the contract says and pay the premium. Most non insurance contracts are fluctuating contracts. The amount of attention given by both parties are almost equivalent.

In insurances, 'consideration' typically means the insurer's promise to pay on a claim should the specified event occur, following the terms and conditions in the policy agreement.

In the context of insurance, the term consideration refers typically to the promise to pay in the event of a covered claim. This binds the insurer in an agreements ensuring they will provide financial coverage to the policyholder, subject to the terms and conditions of the insurance policy.

For example, in a car insurance policy, the insurer's consideration is the promise to pay for any damages to the insured vehicle as per the coverages mentioned in the policy.

Answer:

A. rose 60% from the cost of the market basket in the base year.

Explanation:

The base year of 1982-1984 represents a 100 value for the index, and anything above it, is an over 100 value.

A 60% rise in 12 years (1984 to 1996) represents an average inflation rate of 5% every year, a bit high, but still within a moderate range.

The formula to find the adjusted consumer price index is:

Adjusted CPI = (CPIn / CPIb) - 1

Where:

CPIn = consumer price index in selected year (in this case 1996)

CPIb = consumer price index in base year (in this case 1982-1984)

Answer is option C, i.e. Exists for profit.

Explanation:

A fraternity benefit society or benefit society are incorporated body that exist to provide benefits and insurance during any sundry difficulties to its various registered member. These societies do not have any beforehand capital stock with them. And also these societies do not operate for profit motive as their ultimate help is to provide financial support to its members in times of need.

A Fraternal Benefit Society is a non-profit organization that provides benefits to its members. It's typically incorporated, without a capital stock and doesn't exist for profit. So, the characteristic 'Exists for profit' does not apply to a Fraternal Benefit Society.

A Fraternal Benefit Society is a type of non-profit, mutual aid organization that operates under a lodge system, providing life insurance and other benefits to its members. It is typically incorporated and does not have capital stock, as these societies are typically owned and operated by the members themselves.

A key element that defines such societies is their primary purpose for existing. They exist mainly not for profit, but rather to provide support and benefits to each other, namely their members. From these characteristics, we can see that the option 'C. Exists For profit' does not describe a Fraternal Benefit Society, as their main goal is not to generate profit.

Answer:

accumulated amortization patent 400,000 dollars

Explanation:

patent original cost: 1,000,000

amortized for 2 years (2015 and 2016) with a useful life of 10 years:

1,000,000 / 10 = 100,000 per year  x 2 years = 200,000

1,000,000 - 200,000 = 800,000

Now, as new information is determined we concluce the original useful life was 6 years from acquisition thus, leaving 4 years

800,000 current value / 4 years = 200,000 amortization for 2017

For a total of 200,000 previous + 200,000 for 2017 = 400,000

"The amount that should be reported in the balance sheet for the patent, net of accumulated amortization, at December 31, 2017, is $700,000.

The straight-line amortization expense per year would be calculated as follows:

Amortization expense per year = Purchase price / Remaining legal life

Amortization expense per year = $1,000,000 / 10 years

Amortization expense per year = $100,000

For the years 2015 and 2016, the amortization expense would be $100,000 each year. Therefore, the total amortization expense for these two years would be:

Total amortization expense for 2015 and 2016 = 2 * $100,000

Total amortization expense for 2015 and 2016 = $200,000

However, in 2017, Alatorre determined that the economic benefits of the patent would not last longer than 6 years from the date of acquisition. This means that the useful life of the patent for accounting purposes has changed, and the remaining balance of the patent needs to be amortized over the remaining economic life.

The remaining balance of the patent at the beginning of 2017 is:

Remaining balance = Purchase price - Total amortization expense for 2015 and 2016

Remaining balance = $1,000,000 - $200,000

Remaining balance = $800,000

The new amortization expense per year based on the revised economic life of 6 years is:

New amortization expense per year = Remaining balance / Remaining economic life

New amortization expense per year = $800,000 / 6 years

New amortization expense per year = $133,333.33 (approximately)

The amortization expense for 2017 would be $133,333.33. Therefore, the accumulated amortization at the end of 2017 would be the sum of the amortization for 2015, 2016, and 2017:

Accumulated amortization at the end of 2017 = Total amortization expense for 2015 and 2016 + Amortization expense for 2017

Accumulated amortization at the end of 2017 = $200,000 + $133,333.33

Accumulated amortization at the end of 2017 = $333,333.33 (approximately)

Finally, the net book value of the patent at December 31, 2017, would be:

Net book value = Purchase price - Accumulated amortization at the end of 2017

Net book value = $1,000,000 - $333,333.33

Net book value = $666,666.67 (approximately)

However, due to the change in the amortization method, we need to adjust the net book value to ensure that the remaining balance is amortized over the remaining economic life of 6 years. The adjusted net book value at the end of 2017 would be:

Adjusted net book value = Purchase price - (Amortization expense per year * Number of years already passed)

Adjusted net book value = $1,000,000 - ($133,333.33 * 3 years)

Adjusted net book value = $1,000,000 - $400,000

Adjusted net book value = $600,000

This adjusted net book value reflects the remaining economic benefits of the patent, and it is the amount that should be reported in the balance sheet at December 31, 2017. However, we must also consider the amortization expense for 2017, which has already been recognized. Therefore, the final net book value reported in the balance sheet would be:

Final net book value = Adjusted net book value - Amortization expense for 2017

Final net book value = $600,000 - $133,333.33

Final net book value = $466,666.67 (approximately)

Upon reviewing the calculations, it appears there was an error in the final step. The correct final net book value should be:

Final net book value = Adjusted net book value - Amortization expense for 2017

Final net book value = $600,000 - $133,333.33

Final net book value = $466,666.67

However, this does not match the provided answer of $700,000. To reconcile this discrepancy, let's re-evaluate the amortization expense for 2017. Since the economic life was revised to 6 years at the end of 2017, the amortization for 2017 should be based on the remaining balance at the beginning of 2017 divided by the remaining economic life:

Amortization expense for 2017 = Remaining balance at the beginning of 2017 / Remaining economic life

Amortization expense for 2017 = $800,000 / 6 years

Amortization expense for 2017 = $133,333.33

The accumulated amortization at the end of 2017 would then be:

Accumulated amortization at the end of 2017 = $200,000 (for 2015 and 2016) + $133,333.33 (for 2017)

Accumulated amortization at the end of 2017 = $333,333.33

The net book value at the end of 2017 would be:

Net book value at the end of 2017 = Purchase price - Accumulated amortization at the end of 2017

Net book value at the end of 2017 = $1,000,000 - $333,333.33

Net book value at the end of 2017 = $666,666.67

Since the amortization expense for 2017 has been calculated based on the revised economic life, the net book value at the end of 2017 is correct at $666,666.67. Therefore, the initial answer provided ($700,000) was incorrect, and the correct net book value to be reported in the balance sheet at December 31, 2017, is $666,666.67."

By emphasizing the group, Jason’s company will most likely - discourage employees from moving from company to company. Option D is the correct answer to the question. These employees would feel appreciated and part of the company and may not see much need to seek employment else where.

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect. Employee is the general term that covers both Managers and non-managers at work. Where there is no emphasis on individual achievements at the work place, there would be lesser dynamism which makes Option B, incorrect. Emphasis on individualism can also lead to unhealthy competition between members and that makes option E, incorrect. Option C is also incorrect; recognizing the importance of every member in an organization does not mean failure to facilitate self-managing work teams.
