When you send off the proposal three days later, you inadvertently learn from the client that he never received any correspondence from your coworker. "What dimension of professional behavior did your coworker violate when with the prospective client?
The question is incomplete:
You work for AdSmart, a marketing research firm. You and a new coworker are meeting a potential client for lunch. You have several morning meetings on the same day as the lunch meeting, so you arrange to meet your coworker and the potential client at 12:15 p.m. at the restaurant. You arrive five minutes early, and the prospective client arrives shortly thereafter. You both wait in the lobby until 12:35 p.m. when you decide to be seated. You check your smart phone and see no received communications from your colleague. Finally, at 12:45 p.m., your coworker arrives.
During the lunch, your coworker tells several white lies and reveals information regarding your boss that should have been kept confidential. The prospective client doesn't seem to notice these indiscretions, however, when your coworker begins to badmouth his former employer, a competitor of AdSmart, the client appears ill at ease.
Despite the rough start to the lunch meeting, all ends well. You believe that with the appropiate follow-up, the potential client will become one of the firm's more lucrative partnerships. Once you are back at the office, you debrief with your coworker and discuss the next steps. You decide to take on the task of putting together the proposal the client has requested, and your colleague agrees to send a follow-up note thanking the client and indicating that the proposal will arrive within the next week.
When you send off the proposal three days later, you inadvertently learn from the client that he never received any correspondence from your coworker. "What dimension of professional behavior did your coworker violate when with the prospective client?
Answer:
Courtesy and respect
Explanation:
The dimension of professional behavior that your coworker violated with the prospective client is courtesy and respect. He violated courtesy because it is about being polite and he was not polite because he arrived late to the meeting and he didn't let you know about it.
Also, he violated responsibility because it is about doing the things that you are in charge of and he was in charge of sending a follow-up note and he didn't do it.

6. c. price fixing
7. d. legislation dealing with antitrust
8. a. governmental policy
9. a. regulation
10. b. all things true of a commercial enterprise
Explanation:
Monopoly is a market structure that exists where there is a single seller, selling a single product or service to many buyers with complete control of the market. This situation confers on the seller an economic advantage to the detriment of the overall economy, including market inefficiencies due to the absence of competition. There are many variants to monopoly, including pure monopoly, natural, and monopolistic competition.
The cost structure of two firms competing in the same industry is represented by the following cost formulas: Company X = $2,276,000 + $50/ unit; Company Z = $1,052,000 + $98/unit. The selling price is $145 per unit for both companies. Required: 1. Calculate the indifference point between the two cost structures, that is, the amount of unit sales that produce exactly the same operating income for Company X and Company Z.
Answer:
Indifference point= 25,500
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Company X = $2,276,000 + $50/ unit
Company Z = $1,052,000 + $98/unit
We need to find the indifference point where the two companies provide the same total cost.
We need to equal both cost equations:
2,276,000 + 50x = 1,052,000 + 98x
1,224,000 = 48x
25,500= x
x= number of units
To prove:
Company X = $2,276,000 + $50*25,500= $3,551,000
Company Z = $1,052,000 + $98*25,500= $3,551,000

"What are your goals when responding to the previous scenario"? Check all that apply. You are the owner of a cell phone store. A customer recently sent back a phone that she purchased at your store. She claims the phone won’t turn on. After examining the phone, you notice it has excessive water damage and is beyond repair. Unfortunately, the customer’s warranty expired three months ago.
Answer:
B. Explain clearly and completely.
C. Be fair.
D. Convey empathy and sensitivity.
Explanation:
The warranty for the device has already expired and it can be inferred that the water damage was from the customer because the warranty expired a while back. Since you cannot refund her, the best course of action is to explain to the customer in a clear, concise and complete tone, the problem with the phone. You should not place blame on the customer but rather be fair in your assessment. Your tone should also convey sensitivity and empathy because this is a problem that could happen to anyone and they need to know that.
Gordon purchased real estate for $900,000 and listed title to the property as "Gordon and Fawn, joint tenants with right of survivorship." Gordon predeceases Fawn when the real estate is worth $2,900,000. Gordon and Fawn are brother and sister.
What are the gift and estate tax consequences?
If an amount is zero, enter "0".
a. Gordon made a gift when the real estate was purchased of $_____ to Fawn.
b. Gordon's estate must include $______ as to the property.
c. How would the estate tax consequences change if it was Fawn (not Gordon) who died?
Fawn's estate would include $___0___ as to the property.
Answer:
a. Gordon made a gift when the real estate was purchased of $450,000 to Fawn.
Since Gordon gave 50% of the real estate to his sister as a gift when he purchased it, the gift must be valued at the time it happened ($900,000 x 50%)
b. Gordon's estate must include $2,900,000 as to the property.
Gordon purchased all the real estate by himself, so his estate must include the value of the whole property.
c. How would the estate tax consequences change if it was Fawn (not Gordon) who died?
Fawn's estate would include $0 as to the property.
Since Fawn didn't buy the property, her estate cannot include any amount of it.

A firm contemplating foreign expansion must make three basic decisions: which markets to enter, when to enter those markets, and on what scale. Once a firm decides to enter a foreign market, the question arises as to the best mode of entry. Firms can use six different modes to enter foreign markets: exporting, turnkey projects, licensing, franchising, establishing joint ventures with a host-country firm, or setting up a new wholly owned subsidiary in the host country. Each entry mode has advantages and disadvantages.
Read each advantage and disadvantage listed below and then match it to corresponding mode.
a. Development cost and operational Strategy
b. Costs, risks, and profits
c. Manufacturing and transportation costs
d. Host country and controls
e. FDI and foreign country
f. Risks and capital investment
1. Exporting
2. Turnkey Contracts
3. Licensing
4. Franchising
5. Joint Ventures
6. Who Ply-own
7. Subsidiaries
Answer:
1. Exporting - c. Manufacturing and transportation costs
2. Turnkey Contracts e. FDI and foreign country
3. Licensing f. Risk and Capital investment
4. Franchising d. Host country and controls
5. Joint Venture - a. Development cost and Operational Strategy
6. Who Ply-own - Risks and profits
7. Subsidiaries - b. Costs, risks and profits
Explanation:
Exporting is beneficial for a country as it brings money to the country but it has many disadvantages. There is high manufacturing and transportation cost. There can be trade barriers in some countries which will restrict the trade benefit. Owing a subsidiary is beneficial when it is profitable but when subsidiary incurs loss the parent has to bear it. It involves high risk investment.
The advantage and disadvantage listed below and their matches in their corresponding mode.
Exporting- Manufacturing and transportation costs Turnkey Contracts- FDI and foreign country Licensing - Risk and Capital investment Franchising- Host country and controls Joint Venture - Development cost and Operational Strategy Who Ply-own (wholly owned subsidiary)- Risks and profits Subsidiaries - Costs, risks and profitsFirms can often use different modes to enter foreign markets. They can use exporting, turnkey projects, licensing, franchising, establishing joint ventures with a host-country firm etc.

Poppy Corporation owns 60 percent of Seed Company's common shares. Balance sheet data for the companies on December 31, 20X2, are as follows: Poppy Corporation Seed Company Assets Cash Accounts Receivable Inventory Buildings and Equipment Less: Accumulated Depreciation Investment in Seed Company Stock Total Assets Liabilities and Owners' Equity Accounts Payable Bonds Payable Common Stock ($10 par value) Retained Earnings Total Liabilities and Owners' Equity $ 51, eee 86,000 119, eee 680,000 (210,000) 141,000 $ 907,000 $ 33,000 52,000 97,000 390,000 (78,000) $494,000 $ 117,000 250, eee 300,000 240,000 $ 907,000 $ 59,000 200,000 100,000 135,000 $494,000
The bonds of Poppy Corporation and Seed Company pay annual interest of 8 percent and 10 percent, respectively. Poppy's bonds are not convertible Seed's bonds can be converted into 10,000 shares of its company stock any time after January 1, 20X1. An income tax rate of 40 percent is applicable to both companies. Seed reports net income of $36,000 for 20x2 and pays dividends of $10,000 Poppy reports income from its separate operations of $46,000 and pays dividends of $20,000
Required: Compute basic and diluted EPS for the consolidated entity for 20x2. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Basic earnings per share Diluted earnings per share
Answer:
Poppy Corporation
Consolidated EPS
Basic Earnings per share = $67,600/10,000 = $6.76 per share.
Diluted earnings per share = $74,800/10,000 = $7.48 per share
Explanation:
With the conversion of the Seed's bonds, the interest of $20,000 would be included in its income. And an after tax increase of $12,000 (after taking out tax of 40% on $20,000) would be added to the net income, making the net income to become $48,000 ($36,000 + 12,000). The group's share of the net income would become $28,800 ($48,000 x 60%). This amount is added to the Poppy's net income of $46,000 to get a consolidated net income of $74,800 after the conversion of the bonds.
Before the conversion, the consolidated net income is $67,600 ($46,000 + 60% of $36,000).
EPS becomes diluted with the conversion of convertible debt securities. The effect for a consolidated entity like Poppy is the increase in the net income attributable to the holding company with the elimination of the interest expense. However, the number of shares outstanding for the group would remain the same as before the conversion since it was the bonds of the subsidiary that was converted and not the group's.

B. February 12.
Explanation:
The most important dates for dividends at Georia are the declaration date, The holder-of-record date, and the payment date. The declaration date is the date that the company's directors decide to announce that dividend will be paid to stockholders of record. The holder-of-record date is the date that a stockholders will know if he or she will receive dividend for that period, because only holders of record are paid dividends. If a stockholder's share is not registered before that date, then the stockholder is not entitled to dividends. The last date is, of course, the payment date. However, in accounting for the dividend transaction, only two dates are important: the declaration date and the payment date.
The charter of a corporation provides for the issuance of 100,000 shares of common stock. Assume that 30,000 shares were originally issued and 5,000 were later reacquired. what is the number of shares outstanding?
Answer:
The answer is 25,000 shares.
Explanation:
The 100,000 shares is the authorised shares which is the maximum number of shares an entity is permittee to issue to investors as being stipukated in its articles of incorporation.
The 30,000 shares is the outstanding shares which is the total number of shares issued to existing shareholders.
The 5,000 shares reacquired is known as treasury stock. Companies repurchased the shares.
So total number of outstanding shares is:
30,000 shares - 5,000 shares
= 25,000 shares
The number of shares outstanding is 25,000.
The calculation is as follows:
= Originally issued - reacquired shares
= 30,000 - 5,000
= 25,000
Therefore we can conclude that The number of shares outstanding is 25,000.

Lassen Corporation sold a machine to a machine dealer for $37,250. Lassen bought the machine for $68,000 and has claimed $22,500 of depreciation expense on the machine. What gain or loss does Lassen realize on the transaction
Answer:
Loss of $8,250
Explanation:
Lassen corporation sold a machine to a machine dealer at a price of $37,250
Lassen bought the machine for $68,000
He claimed $22,500 of depreciated expenses on the machine
Therefore, the gain or loss realized on the transaction can be calculated as follows
Gain/loss= Cash received-book value
Book value= Original basis-accumulated depreciation
= $68,000-$22,500
= $45,500
Gain/loss= $37,250-$45,500
= $8,250
Hence Lassen realized a loss of $8,250 on the transaction

Farrow Co. expects to sell 200,000 units of its product in the next period with the following results:
Sales (200,000 units) $3,000,000
Costs and expenses:
Direct materials 400,000
Direct labor 800,000
Overhead 200,000
Selling expenses 300,000
Administrative expenses 514,000
Total costs and expenses 2,214,000
Net income $786,000
The company has an opportunity to sell 20,000 additional units at $13 per unit. The additional sales would not affect its current expected sales. Direct materials and labor costs per unit would be the same for the additional units as they are for the regular units. However, the additional volume would create the following incremental costs:
1. total overhead would increase by 15%
2. administrative expenses would increase by $86,000.
Required:
Calculate the combined total net income if the company accepts the offer to sell additional units at the reduced price of $13 per unit.
Answer:
Combined net income =$810,000
Explanation:
In order to carry out an incremental analysis, only relevant cash flows should be considered.
The relevant cash flows from accepting the special order are the variable costs and the sales revenue plus the incremental cost of overhead and administrative cost . Please, note that the fixed costs are not relevant for this decision. Simply because they would be incurred either way.
The relevant cash flows include:
The sales revenueThe variable cost And the increase in overhead and administrative costSelling price per unit = $13
Variable cost per unit of additional sales
= (Direct material + Direct labour cost)/200,000 = 6
Analysis of incremental net income
$
Additional sales revenue ( 13×× 20,000) = 260,000
Incremental variable cost (6 × 20,000) = 120000
Incremental overhead (15%× 200,000) = (30000)
Incremental admin cost (86,000)
Net income from additional sales 24,000
Combined net income = original Net income + Additional net income
= 786,000 + 24000 = $810,000
Combined net income =$810,000
Two college students share an apartment and split the cost of heating, electricity, and rent. They decide to include one more roommate and divide heat, electricity, and rent costs three ways instead of two ways.
If adding the third roommate reduces the amount of money they each pay for utilities and rent each month, this can be described as:_____________
Answer:
increasing returns to scale.
Explanation:
The returns to scale mean the rate at which there is change in the output when the inputs are changed by a similar factor
While on the other hand, an increasing return to scale refers that if there is an increase in input so by a larger proportion, the output is also increased as compared with the input
Therefore according to the given situation, since by adding the third roommate, it declines the amount of money by each one in respect to rent, utilities so it describes the increasing return to scale

Explanation:
Gross domestic product is the total sum of final goods and services produced in an economy within a given period which is usually a year
GDP calculated using the expenditure approach = Consumption spending by households + Investment spending by businesses + Government spending + Net export
Net export = exports – imports
When exports exceeds import there is a trade deficit and when import exceeds import, there is a trade surplus.
Items not included in the calculation off GDP includes:
1. services not rendered to oneself
2. Activities not reported to the government
3. illegal activities
4. sale or purchase of used products
5. sale or purchase of intermediate products
The purchase of chocolate would be added to GDP as part of consumption spending on non durable items.
the purchase of the antique silver platter would not be added as part of GDP because it wasn't produced in 2020 and only goods produced in 2020 would be added to 2020 GDP.
The corn syrup is an intermediate good and it would not be added in the calculation of GDP. only final goods are added in the calculation of GDP.
The automobile would be added to GDP as part of investment spending by businesses.
the import of cars would be added as part of net export in 2020 GDP
Direct Materials and Direct Labor Variances At the beginning of June, Bezco Toy Company budgeted 24,000 toy action figures to be manufactured in June at standard direct materials and direct labor costs as follows: Direct materials $36,000 Direct labor 8,640 Total $44,640 The standard materials price is $0.6 per pound. The standard direct labor rate is $9 per hour. At the end of June, the actual direct materials and direct labor costs were as follows: Actual direct materials $33,400 Actual direct labor 8,000 Total $41,400 There were no direct materials price or direct labor rate variances for June. In addition, assume no changes in the direct materials inventory balances in June. Bezco Toy Company actually produced 21,600 units during June. Determine the direct materials quantity and direct labor time variances. Round your per unit computations to two decimal places, if required. Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number. Direct materials quantity variance $ 2.5 Favorable Direct labor time variance
Answer:
$1,000 unfavorable and $224 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the direct material quantity variance and the direct labor time variance is shown below:
For direct material quantity variance:
= (Standard direct materials ÷ bugeted toy × actually produced) - actual direct materials
= ($36,000 ÷ $24,000 × 21,600 units) - $33,400
= $32,400 - $33,400
= $1,000 unfavorable
For direct labor time variance
= (Standard direct labor ÷ bugeted toy × actually produced) - actual direct labor
= ($8,640 ÷ $24,000 × 21,600 units) - $8,000
= $7,776 - $8,000
= $224 unfavorable
An important tool in predicting the volume of activity, the costs to be incurred, the sales to be made, and the profit to be earned is:
Answer:
Cost-volume-profit analysis.
Explanation:
An important tool in predicting the volume of activity, the costs to be incurred, the sales to be made, and the profit to be earned is cost-volume-profit analysis. It is an important tool in accounting that is used to determine how changes in differing levels of activities such as costs and volume affect a company's operating financial statements, both income and net income. It is also an accounting concept known as the break even analysis.
In order to use this cost-volume-profit analysis, accountants usually make some assumptions and these are;
1. Sales price per unit product is kept constant.
2. Variable costs per unit product are kept constant.
3. Total fixed costs of production are kept constant.
4. All the units produced are sold.
5. The costs accrued are as a result of change in business activities.
6. A company selling more than a product should simply sell in the same mix.
Many companies secure financing from various sources with various payback periods. Not all funding sources are the same, and in fact, some can come with a pretty high cost to the firm. These costs could include high interest rates, long payback periods, and increased ownership in the firm which could result in lost control.
Please analyze the funding options listed, and determine if the option is usually a short-term or long-term strategy.
a. Line of credit
b. Commercial paper
c. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months
d. Bond
e. Stock
f. Bank loan of 20 months
Answer:
a. Line of credit - Long-term strategy
A line of credit is a long-term strategy because businesses obtain lines of credit for their use over long periods of time. The particular characteristic is that a line of credit is only used when the business decides to do so, so it works almost like a credit card.
b. Commercial paper - Short-term strategy
Commercial paper is a short-term debt that is issued by firms when they have problems to pay operating expenses. They are unsecured, and pay a specific amount of interest.
c. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months - Short-term strategy
In financial accounting, loans that last for less than a year are categorized as short-term liabilities, therefore, a trade credit bank loan of 10 months is a short-term strategy.
d. Bond - Long-term strategy
While some bonds are issued for the short-term, the majority of them are issued for the long-term, with some of them lasting 10 years or more.
e. Stock - Long-term strategy
Buying or issuing stock is also a long-term strategy, specially because the dividend of the stock is only paid out once every year, unlike other debt instruments that pay interest immediately.
f. Bank loan of 20 months - Long-term strategy
A bank loan of more than 1 years is considered a long-term liability in financial accounting, therefore, a bank loan of 20 months is part of a long-term strategy.
Analyzing the given funding options and placing them in their right categories would be:
A. Line of credit - Long-term strategy B. Commercial paper - Short-term strategy C. Trade credit Bank loan of 10 months - Short-term strategy D. Bond - Long-term strategy E. Stock - Long-term strategy F. Bank loan of 20 months - Long-term strategyA long term strategy is one which financial institutions use to secure their assets for the foreseeable future while a short term strategy is used for short term gains on stocks and finances.
With this in mind, we can see that there are different funding options which are short or long term as the case may be, which depends on the amount of profit which the business wants to accrue.
