Each culpable party is responsible for its proportionate share of the damages. Damages are always the responsibility of all negligent parties.

What is  joint and several liability?

  • Each party is individually liable for the entire extent of the damages caused by the tortious act when two or more people become jointly and severally responsible for that though.
  • As a result, if a plaintiff obtains a monetary judgment against all of the parties, they may each be held liable for the full amount of the verdict.
  • The other wrongdoers may then be asked to contribute to that party. The law of undivided injury is the name given to the idea of picking the defendant(s) against whom to seek damages.

The worrisome consequences are as previously mentioned, joint and several liability usually works in the plaintiff's favor because it raises the likelihood that every one of the damages granted will be recouped.

In contrast hand, it can be thought unjust for a party to suffer a disproportionate financial loss as a result of an unpleasant incident for which it had only a tiny responsibility.

Answer:

Flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue = $3,960 Favorable

Explanation:

Provided budget is static budget, firstly for calculating flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue.

For this flexible budget is made of same level of quantity as of actual level.

therefore Flexible budget sales = 990 units @ $70 per unit price will be same as of static budget.

Therefore Variance = Standard Flexible Budgeted Sales - Actual Sales

Standard Flexible Budgeted Sales = 990 \times $70 = $69,300

Actual Sales Revenue = 990 \times $74 = $73,260

Since actual revenue is more than budgeted sales this is favorable.

Flexible Budget Variance for Sales Revenue = $69,300 - $73,260 = $3,960

Since actual revenue is more than budgeted revenue therefore this is a favorable variance.

Flexible budget variance for Sales Revenue = $3,960 Favorable

Bank Reconciliation
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Cash balance according to the bank $23,557.98

+ deposits in transit $12,125.25

- outstanding check N⁰ 124 ($62)

- outstanding check N⁰ 125 ($42)

- outstanding check N⁰ 129 ($1,250)

adjusted bank balance = $34,329.23

Cash account balance $51,596.88

+ note collected by bank $15,250.75

- NSF check ($23,475.40)

- Bank fees ($250)

- Error in recording check N⁰ 125 ($9,000)

adjusted cash account balance = $34,122.23

two errors were detected:

  1. outstanding check N⁰ 125 correct amount is ($24)
  2. bank fees are $25

so the readjusted balances are:

adjusted bank balance = $34,329.23 + ($42 - $24) = $34,347.23

adjusted cash account balance = $34,122.23 + ($250 - $25) = $34,347.23

now both accounts are equal.
