Answer:

a. estimate the amount to mitigate high impact and probable issues.

Explanation:

In project management, a contractor can be defined as an individual or organization that temporarily undertakes a project in order to create a unique result, product, and service.

A contingency is an amount of money which is added to the initial or standard cost estimate so as to cover risk exposure and any uncertainty.

When making contingency estimates, the contractor should estimate the amount to mitigate high impact and probable issues.

As a result of uncertainties that are peculiar to everything in life, most especially projects undertaken, it is very important and necessary that the contractor should set aside an amount of money to mitigate or lessen any high impact such as dwindling prices, miscellaneous, faults, repairs and other probable issues that may arise in the process of execution.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

3.34 times

Explanation:

The market value of skipper incorporation is $720,000

The balance sheet shows a cash of $46,400 and debt of $230,700

The income statement has an EBIT of $103,700

The depreciation and amortization is $166,900

The first step is to calculate the enterprise value

= Market capitalization + debt - cash

= $720,000 + $230,700 - $46,400

= $904,300

The EBITDA can be calculated as follows

= EBIT + depreciation and amortization

= $103,700 + $166,900

= $270,600

Therefore the enterprise value-EBITDA can be calculated as follows

= 904,300/270,600

= 3.34 times

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: b. piercing the corporate veil.

Explanation:

Normally, corporations have limited liability which means that the assets of the shareholders are separate from that of the company and should the company go bankrupt for instance, the assets of the shareholders would be safe and only that of the company could be liquidated.

Sometimes however, the courts can remove this limited liability protection which would enable the assets of the shareholders to be targeted in what is known as "piercing the corporate veil".

There are several reasons this can happen for instance:

  • Fraud by the owners
  • Failure to follow formal corporate rules
  • Inadequate capitalization of the company
  • Use of company assets as private assets.
