From the question, we are informed that Hadley, a business researcher, believes that organizations will have to spend a lot of money on employee health care in the future while Owen argues that organizations will not have to increase their spending on employee health care benefits.
The statement that weakens Owen's argument is that the fastest-growing share of the workforce is at least 55 years old. This simply means there are more old people incthe the workforce and that means there'll be more tendency for them to go to hospitals when ill compared to youths who'll be stronger.
Answer:
$12,000
Explanation:
According to the given situation,the computation of the outside basis is shown below:-
Total Outside basis = Adjusted basis - Non-recourse mortgage + G's share of mortgage
= $18,500 - $9,750 + ($9,750 × 3)
= $18,500 - $9,750 + $3,250
= $12,000
Therefore for computing the total outside basis we simply applied the abovbe formula.

Answer:
ROI = net profit / total investment
1. What is the current return on investment (ROI) being realized by your division
- ROI = $625,000 / $4,150,000 = 15.06%
2. What would happen to the near-term ROI of your division after adding the effect of the new investment?
- ROI = ($625,000 + $50,000) / ($4,150,000 + $550,000) = 14.36%
If you carry out the new project the ROI of your division will decrease.
3. As manager of this division, given your incentive compensation plan, would you be motivated to make the new investment?
- Even though the new project's return (9.1%) is considered acceptable by upper management, you will probably reject it since it will decrease your division's total ROI. When managers are assigned bonuses based on certain achievements, reducing your profitability ratio will probably result in no bonus.
