Anika [276]
The answer, on the point of view of Boster, is A. Debit notes receivable and credit accounts receivable (not payable i think). This is from the point of view of Boster. So to Boster, he will have an accounts receivable by Martin company. So what Martin did is that he offered a promissory note to Boster. This will increase Boster's notes receivable.

A business should endeavor to be socially responsible in its actions and conduct under what set of circumstances?
serg [7]

Answer: All of the above

Explanation:

A company should endeavour to be socially responsible if it will result in any of the listed circumstances as they are all benefits.

If this would increase the company's competitive advantage it should be embarked on as it would lead to the company having a better position in the market. It can also reduce the cost to the company of reputation damaging incidents.

A company having improved efficiency and workforce retention is a good company and if socially responsible actions will bring that, the company should do it. And with the purpose of a company being to maximise shareholder value, a company should definitely engage in socially responsible actions if there is a high correlation between CSR and stock price.

A number between 1 and 15
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The probability is 0.20 or 20%

Explanation:

we know that

The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.  

The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes  

The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.  

so  

Let

x------> size of the event space

y-----> size of the sample space  

so

P=\frac{x}{y}

In this problem we have  that

Multiple of 5 between 1 and 15 = 5, 10,15

so

x=3

Total numbers between 1 and 15=15

so

y=15

substitute

P=\frac{3}{15}=0.20

Convert to percentage

P=0.20(100)=20\%

Ahat [919]

Answer:

-$8,705

Explanation:

The computation of the Net present value is shown below

= Present value of all yearly cash inflows after applying discount factor + salvage value - initial investment

where,

The Initial investment is $110,000

All yearly cash flows would be

= Annual cost savings × PVIFA for 4 years at 12%

= $30,000 × 3.0373

= $91,119

Refer to the PVIFA table

And, the salvage value would be

= Salvage value × pvif for 4 years at 12%

= $16,000 × 0.636

= $10,176

The discount factor should be computed by

= 1 ÷ (1 + rate) ^ years

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $91,119 + $10,176 - $110,000

= -$8,705
