Answer:
Compromising
Explanation:
Compromising in problem solving looks for an expedient and mutually acceptable solution which is partially satisfactory to both parties engaged in the conflict.
The choice of Compromise becomes appropriate: When the goals are moderately important and not worth the use of more assertive or more involved approaches, such as forcing or collaborating.
In the scenario it is stated that ''You are actively searching for a middle ground between the interests of the two parties.'' hence such middle ground presupposes compromise as the preferred strategy for the conflict resolution.
Legal action against a company may likely NOT be incurred when ________. a. employees incur injuries during training conducted by the company b. employees incur injuries or damages in training conducted by a vendor or consultant c. the company uses small amounts of copyrighted material d. decisions about training and development opportunities are made on the basis of age
Answer:
c) the company uses small amounts of copyrighted material
Explanation:
According to the fair use doctrine, the government of the US permits uses of the copyrighted material if the amount of copyrighted material is in very small amount and also does not constitutes to unfair advantage over the company which has copyrighted the material formula. Whereas on the other hand, the employer will face legal action if the employee faces any injury at work and this is well addressed in employees right act.
Furthermore, age descrimination is a illegal act so the company will again face legal actions in this case too.
gains a client who prepays $ 450 for a package of six physical training sessions. Body Fitness collects the $ 450 in advance and will provide the training later. After four training sessions, what should Body Fitness report on its income statement assuming it uses the accrual basis accounting method?
Answer:
A revenue of $300
Explanation:
When a client pays in advance, the revenue is yet to be earned hence a debit entry is posted to cash and a credit to deferred revenue. Once revenue is earned, debit deferred revenue and credit revenue.
If $450 was paid in advance for 6 sessions, after 4 sessions,
Revenue earned = 4/6 × $450 = $300
This will be recognized by debiting deferred revenue and crediting revenue. Hence the income statement would show a revenue of $300.
Final answer:
Body Fitness should report $300 as earned revenue on its income statement after four training sessions, as per the accrual basis accounting method.
Explanation:
Under the accrual basis accounting method, income is recognized when it is earned, irrespective of when the payment is received. In this scenario, Body Fitness has received a payment of $450 for six sessions, out of which only four sessions have been provided thus far. Since income is recognized as the service is performed, we need to calculate the income earned for these four sessions.
To find out what should be reported on the income statement, we divide the total payment by the number of sessions to find the per-session income: $450 / 6 = $75 per session. Therefore, after four sessions, the income statement should report 4 sessions × $75/session = $300 in earned revenue. The remaining $150 will be recognized as a liability (unearned revenue) on the balance sheet until the remaining sessions are conducted.
Wilbur decides to sell his collection of rare stamps through an online auction site. When he is filling out the information about his collection, he types $40 instead of $400 in the minimum price box. Wilbur does not notice his mistake until after the auction is over and someone has purchased his stamp collection for $75. Wilbur:
Answer:
Wilbur cannot rescind the contract based on his unilateral mistake.
Explanation:
Lets suppose that I made an offer of $1000 which you accepted to buy my car on a phone call for $1000 and later in the same day a person offered me more money for the same car and I sold the car to him. You went to court and I said that I mistakenly made an offer of $1000 which means that every person who revoke the clauses will make lame excuses in the court. If this act is permitted then the law gives the people free hand whatever they desire to do with the contract. So for this reason this act was considered unethical and the court said that the mistakes that are unilateral are not be rescind.

On January 2, 2020, Crane Company wishes to issue $6400000 (par value) of its 6%, 10-year bonds. The bonds pay interest annually on January 1. The current yield rate on such bonds is 11%. Using the interest factors below, compute the amount that Crane will realize from the sale (issuance) of the bonds. Present value of 1 at 6% for 10 periods 0.5584 Present value of 1 at 11% for 10 periods 0.3522 Present value of an ordinary annuity at 6% for 10 periods 7.3601 Present value of an ordinary annuity at 11% for 10 periods 5.8892
Answer:
$45,155,328
Explanation:
the bonds will yield $3,840,000 per year during 10 years
and at the end of year 10 (maturity date) the face value is $64,000,000
the present value of the annuity = coupon payment x present value of an ordinary annuity at 11% for 10 periods = $3,840,000 x 5.8892 = $22.614,528
the present value of face value at maturity date = face value x present value of 1 at 11% for 10 periods = $64,000,000 x 0.3522 = $22,540,800
present value of the bonds = $22.614,528 + $22,540,800 = $45,155,328

In a _________, the underwriters agree to make an attempt to sell the IPO for the firm. If the underwriter can get enough investor commitments then the IPO will occur. If sufficient investor interest does not exist the issue may be canceled
Answer:
best efforts
Explanation:
As it name suggests, a best efforts IPO takes place when an underwriter cannot commit completely to a client because the market interest in the firm is not certain. So the underwriter "promises" to make its best effort to carry out a successful IPO, but cannot guarantee it. On the other hand, when the market interest is very large, underwriters themselves purchase the entire IPO through a firm commitment IPO.

Check all that apply. You should spend several hours a day studying the business section of your local newspaper to determine which stocks to add to your investment portfolio. O Stock markets reflect all available information about the value of stocks O Changes in stock prices are impossible to predict.
Final answer:
The efficient markets hypothesis asserts that stock markets reflect all available information and that stock price changes are unpredictable since they instantly incorporate new information. Therefore, options that align with EMH are that stock markets reflect all available information about stock values and that changes in stock prices are impossible to predict, making daily newspaper analysis for stock selection ineffective.
Explanation:
The question asks which of the following are consistent with the efficient markets hypothesis (EMH). According to the EMH, formulated by Professor Eugene Fama, stock markets reflect all available information about the value of stocks, and thus, changes in stock prices are unpredictable because they immediately incorporate new information. This theory implies that it is impossible to consistently achieve higher returns than the average market return through stock selection or market timing based on publicly available information.
Stock markets reflect all available information about the value of stocks.
Changes in stock prices are impossible to predict.
The concept of spending several hours a day studying the business section of a newspaper to determine which stocks to add to an investment portfolio is inconsistent with the EMH. This is because, under EMH, all publicly available information is already reflected in stock prices, making it futile to attempt to find undervalued stocks through such analysis.
"If domestic fuel prices rise to $5 per gallon, growth will slow significantly and our quality of life will decline." This philosophy is consistent with ________ economics.
Answer:
neoclassical
Explanation:
Neoclassical economics was first proposed by David Ricardo and later continued by Adam Smith. it focuses on the determination of output and income distribution through supply and demand. The eternal problem with neoclassical economists is that they assume what should happen, but they do not consider the human factor in the economy. E.g. both wages and prices are sticky, but neoclassical economists argue that they shouldn't be that way in order to increase efficiency, but they cannot change the real world. Their expectations about how efficiency can be achieved are always unrealistic and could apply on an ideal world, but our world is full of problems and defects, so the ideal scenario is never real.
In this case, an increase in the price of gas will hurt the economy, but consumers aren't dumb, raising gas prices resulted in consumers buying more efficient vehicles.

Your company relocated you from the United States to their United Kingdom office in London. You brought your personal computer with you and are in the process of setting it up. Your computer was previously configured to receive 115 VAC, but the electricity in London uses 230 VAC.
Answer:
You can use your computer safely by just toggling the voltage switch on the power supply form 110 volts to 230 volts.
Explanation:
This is a similar issue to what happens with the metric system, the imperial system is used in the US as a cultural thing but it's rarely used anywhere else. The US uses 100 volts because Thomas Edison thought it would be better, while basically everyone else in the world disagrees.
Since most computers are built in China or some other Asian country, they either have an automatic voltage selector or they have a manual switch. In case the power supply uses a manual switch, all you have to do is toggle it to 230 volts.
Chancellor's is a high-end men's clothing store that frequently resorts to discount blowouts to get rid of excess merchandise. Which of the following best explains the reason for these sales? A. Overestimating demand B. Ineffective tracking of the inventory C. An increase in the price of raw materials D. A decrease in inventory costs E. Increased competition in the local market
The Overestimating demand best explains the reason for these sales.
Option: A
Explanation:
If your company overestimates demand, more stock will end up than it requires. This may raise the cost of your labor and storage if employees decide to transfer this product to the next warehouse to make room for new inventories. If your company sells perishable items, you may incur yet another damage due to the decay of the product that is unsold.
Thus in such a case, you may also need to sell stock at a bargain which decreases the profit margins and profits of your business. Supply Chain Management (SCM) technology can help to improve the supply chain forecasting and measurement mechanism by synchronizing the supply and demand loop using actual-time information. As a consequence, there is less risk that the product will remain unfinished.
A manufacturer of cellular phones has decided that an assembly line is operating satisfactorily if less than 0.05% of the phones produced per day are defective. To check the quality of a day's production, the company decides to randomly sample 50 phones from a day's production to test for defects. Define the population of interest to the manufacturer. A. The 0.05% of the phones that are defective B. The 50 phones sampled and tested C. The 50 results of the random testing D. All the phones produced during the day in question
Answer:
D. All the phones produced during the day in question
Explanation:
Population of interest is the population that conclusions are made for. The population can be objects, people, or measurements.
A sample is drawm from this population and tested for a particular characteristic. The result is now used to draw conclusions about the population of interest.
On this case the population of interest is all the phones produced in a day, the sample is the 50 phones selected for testing.
The characteristic tested is defects less than 0.05%. If the sample shows that defects are less than 0.05% then it is concluded that the population is okay.
Final answer:
The population of interest to the manufacturer is all the phones produced during the day in question, as this is the group they wish to ensure has less than 0.05% defects.
Explanation:
The population of interest to the manufacturer is D. All the phones produced during the day in question. The reason this is the population of interest is that the manufacturer's goal is to ensure that the entire day's production meets the quality standard of having less than 0.05% defective phones. While option B refers to the sample of phones tested, and option C to the results of those tests, neither of these are the actual population the manufacturer is concerned with. Instead, they are tools used to infer the quality of the total production run indicated by option D.

The original price of the book was $30.00.
Explanation:In this problem, we are given the sale price of the book and the percentage discount, and we are asked to calculate the original price of the book. Let's denote the original price as X. The book was on sale for 40% off its original price, which means 60% of the original price equals to the sale price, $18.00. So, we can set these in the equation as 0.60*X = $18.00. Now we just need to solve this equation for X to find the original price. We will divide both sides of the equation by 0.60. So, X = $18.00 / 0.60 = $30.00.

Even after the US Environmental Protection Agency discovered that 482,000 VW diesel cars on American roads were emitting up to 40 times more toxic fumes than permitted, VW executives continued to deny that VW installed software designed to cheat on emissions tests.T/F
Answer:
This statement is false
Explanation:
VW executives did not deny that VW installed software designed to cheat on emissions tests. The American boss of VW, Michael Horn, said “We've totally screwed up”.
The statement is true; Volkswagen executives did indeed deny the use of a 'defeat device' to cheat on emissions tests, despite the EPA's findings. This was part of the larger 'Dieselgate' scandal where the deceit not only involved emission standards but also false advertising about the vehicle's environmental impact.
The statement that VW executives continued to deny that VW installed software designed to cheat on emissions tests even after the US Environmental Protection Agency discovered that 482,000 VW diesel cars were emitting up to 40 times more toxic fumes than permitted is true.
The Volkswagen emissions scandal, widely known as 'Dieselgate', was brought to light in 2015, revealing that Volkswagen had used a "defeat device" in many of its diesel cars since 2009 to cheat on emissions tests conducted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This device could detect when tests were being conducted to temporarily reduce toxic emissions during the testing procedures, but in reality, the vehicles emitted far greater levels of pollutants than allowed by law. Furthermore, the repercussions extended beyond just environmental harm; the Federal Trade Commission filed a complaint against Volkswagen for deceptive advertising practices, stating the company made false claims about their cars' low emissions.

You have the choice between two investments that have the same maturity and the same nominal return. Investment X pays simple interest, Investment Y pays compounded interest. Which one should you choose?
Answer:
Investment Y
Explanation:
Investment Y pays compound interest, which earns interest compared to simple interest over time. In compound interest, the interest earned in the period is added to the principal, thereby increasing the principal amount for in the next period. It means that the interest earned also earns interest.
Compound interest increases the principal amount at the beginning of every period. As a result, the interest earned will be higher every year. Investment X earns simple interest. In simple interest, the principal amount remains is constant throughout the investment period. The interest in simple is constants throughout the period. Compound interest has higher returns compared to simple interest.
Suppose the price of Twinkies is reduced from $1.45 to $1.25 and, as a result, the quantity of Twinkies demanded increases from 2,000 to 2,200. Using the midpoint method, the price elasticity of demand for Twinkies in the given price range is
a. 2.00.
b. 1.55.
c. 1.00.
d. .64.
Answer:
d. .64.
Explanation:
Price elasticity of demand measure the responsiveness of demand against change in the price of given product. It measures the ratio of change in demand to change in price.
Change in demand = ( 2200 - 2000 ) / [ (2200+2000)/2 ] = 200 / 2100 = 0.0952
Change in price = ( 1.25 - 1.45 ) / [ (1.25+1.45)/2 ] = 0.2 / 1.35 = 0.148
Elasticity of Demand = Change in demand / change in price = 0.0952 / 0.148 = 0.643 = 0.64
A corporation has issued 50,000,000 shares of common stock at $2 par. The corporation has 10,000,000 shares of Treasury Stock on its books. The aggregate value of the outstanding shares is:
A. $20,000,000
B. $40,000,000
C. $80,000,000
D. $100,000,000
Answer:
C. $80,000,000
Explanation:
The issued shares are those which are held by the shareholder of the company and Treasury shares and those share which are bought back by the company. So it is not reported in the outstanding shares. Outstanding share are the net of issued share and Treasury share.
Issued Share = 50,000,000 shares
Treasury shares = 10,000,000 shares
Outstanding shares = 50,000,000 - 10,000,000 = 40,000,000
Stock par value = $2
Value of outstanding shares = 40,000,000 shares x $2 = $80,000,000
Final answer:
The aggregate value of the outstanding shares is calculated by multiplying the number of outstanding shares (40 million) by the par value ($2), resulting in an aggregate value of $80,000,000.
Explanation:
The question asks for the aggregate value of the outstanding shares of a corporation that issued 50,000,000 shares of common stock at $2 par with 10,000,000 shares held as Treasury Stock. To calculate the aggregate value of the outstanding shares, we must first deduct the Treasury Stock from the total issued shares which gives us 40,000,000 shares outstanding (50,000,000 total shares - 10,000,000 Treasury Stock). Since each share has a $2 par value, we multiply the number of outstanding shares by the par value to get the aggregate value: 40,000,000 shares imes $2 = $80,000,000. Therefore, the correct answer is C. $80,000,000.
