Answer:
4 million houses
Explanation:
Opportunity cost is the forfeited benefit as a result of choosing one option over others. Its value equals the cost of the next best alternative.
The cost of constructing a new home is $150,000. If the Federal Defence has a budget of $600 billion, the opportunity cost of spending that amount will be the equivalent number of units that can be built by the amount.
To calculate the number of units= $600 billion divided by $150,000
= $600,000,000,000/ $150,000
=4,000,000
=4 million units
This sale represent A MITIGATION OF DAMAGE.
The principle of the mitigation of damage states that a person who has suffered an injury or loss should take reasonable action where possible to avoid additional injury. The failure to take reasonable action to prevent further loss may result in reduction in the amount that the person can recover if the case is taken to court.
Answer:
Net Sales $2720
Explanation:
Hancock Corporation
Jan 6: Sales $ 1500
Add Jan 6 Sales $ 850
Less Jan 14 Sales Discount $ 30 ( 2% of $ 1500)
<u>Add Feb 28: Sales $ 400</u>
<u>Net Sales $2720 </u>
Only a 2% discount is given on the cash received on Jan 14 on the sales made on JAn 6 to S. Green because the cash is received within the first ten days of sales made. The cash received on Feb 2 is not given the sales discount as it is received after ten days of the sales made. That is sales were done on Jan 6 to M. Munoz. with the terms 2/10, n/30 meaning discount will be given within the first ten days . But as the payment was on Feb 2 almost 17 days later the discount is not given.
The term 2/10 n/30 means a two percent discount will be given if sales were paid within the first ten days. So a discount is given to S. Green but not M. Munoz as payment is done after 10 days.
