Grace period allows an insured's life insurance policy to remain in force even if the premium was not paid on the due date.

<h3>What is grace period?</h3>

A life insurance policy won't lapse during the grace period even though a payment is past due after a missed insurance premium is due. Every state in the US requires the grace period, a highly helpful provision, to be included in every life insurance policy. Depending on the rules of each state, the minimum grace period is from 28 to 31 days; however, some businesses may grant extended grace periods.

When the required number of days have gone, the grace period formally ends at the close of business on the day the missing premium payment is due. The grace period in a whole life, universal life, or variable universal life policy would only be applicable if the premium payment was past due and there was no cash value left in the policy. It is unlikely that a policy will enter "grace period status" if a premium payment is missed if cash value is still present as long as it may be utilised to pay the premium or at the very least draw a loan to pay the premium.

Westkost [7]

Answer:

B. A strategic action because such a large plant expansion will require a major commitment of resources.

Explanation:

There are two major forms of action in business decision making: strategic and tactical. Strategic action deals with decision that require major planning and investment of resource. Strategic actions have long term implementation and effect and are difficult to reverse.

Tactical actions, on the other hand, are flexible and involves actions taken on short term basis. Tactical actions are majorly bye-product of strategic decision.

On this note, Circus Aircraft`s decision to double its plant capacity over the next two years is a strategic action because such a large plant expansion will require a major commitment of resources. And the action will not easily reversible.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Sykora, Inc., which uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor hours, estimated total overhead for the year to be $12,000,000 and total direct labor hours to be 320,000 hours.

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 12,000,000/320,000= $37.5 per direct labor hour

In April, Sykora incurred actual overhead costs of $1,050,000 and used 30,000 hours.

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Allocated MOH= 37.5*30,000= $1,125,000

Over/under allocation= real MOH - allocated MOH

Over/under allocation= 1,050,000 - 1,125,000= 75,000 overallocated

How physical assets valuation and development and research pose risk.<br>

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

The differences between US GAAP and IFRS pose an extra cost because international corporations must prepare two separate accounting statements. But besides that, other potential risks include paying higher taxes than what the companies should pay int their home countries and the uncertainty generated by changing rules.

Not only do current tax rates affect potential investments, e.g. currently companies in the US pay relatively low corporate taxes (Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017) but these benefits end on 2025. But also different methods for valuating physical assets and R&D costs can represent higher than expected taxes. E.g. depending on a company's needs, it may be beneficial to expense all R&D costs right away, or maybe it would be better to capitalize some of them after technical feasibility is achieved (IFRS).

The main advantage of having uniform rules (e.g. UCC) is that all the companies know exactly what to expect and how to act. Certainty decreases risk, and less risk reduces costs.

Explanation:

In the US, the vast majority of firms use US GAAP as their accounting method, but around the world the IFRS method is used.

Physical asset valuation is the process of determining the value of your physical assets including P, P & E, and also inventories.

When valuing inventories IFRS uses FIFO, while US GAAP allows FIFO, LIFO or weighted average costing methods. US GAAP also values inventory at lesser of cost or market value, while IFRS values inventory at lesser of cost or net realizable value.
US GAAP uses the cost method to determine the historic cost of an asset, while IFRS uses basically the same method but does not include all the costs of location of the assets (e.g. cost of removing or clearing a facility).
US GAAP recognizes non-monetary exchanges while IFRS doesn't.
IFRS also allows the cost of asset to be revalued, which can result in unrealized gains or losses. The US GAAP only considers historic costs.
There are also other minor differences regarding depreciation, disposals and impairment rules.

Research and development must be expensed right away under US GAAP, while IFRS basically requires the same, it allows some capitalization of development expenditures if certain criteria is met (technical feasibility is achieved).
