Answer:

It is not acceptable

Explanation:

The office of Broker Freehand is located on the north side of town while the office of Broker Getrich is located on the south side of town but the office location shouldn't make a basis for such agreement because such agreement is a breach of Sherman Anti trust act

Sherman antitrust act is an act that was made to stop monopoly of a businesses by a group of firms or individuals with the aim of dictating prices of goods and services in the market. The agreement between Broker Freehand and Broker Getrich will eliminate fair market competition for other Brokers and will also set the prices of the listing since the rates charged by both would be fixed at 7%

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Suzie's situation isn't workable because she is meant to be under the direct supervision of her broker no matter what her personal preference for independence.  

This is because should anything go wrong in any of her dealings, the brokers's license will be revoked. This means that the broker is directly responsible and accountable for her actions and as such must ensure that she is present at the office at all times.

Cheers.

Splish Company purchased a computer for $9,920 on January 1, 2019. Straight-line depreciation is used, based on a 5-year life an
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

$2914

Explanation:

The following steps would be taken to determine the answer

1. Calculate depreciation expense given the initial information  

2. calculate the accumulated depreciation by the second year. Accumulated depreciation is sum of depreciation expense

3. subtract the accumulated depreciation from the cost price of the asset. This would give the book value  

4. calculate the depreciation expense using the new information and the book value

Straight line depreciation expense = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

($9,920 - $1240) / 5 =  $1736

Accumulated depreciation = 1736 x 2 = $3472

Book value at the beginning of 2021 = 9920 - 3472 = $6448

Depreciation expense in 2021 = (6448 - 620) / 2 = $2914

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The amount of current assets are $252,000

Explanation:

Current assets: The current assets are those assets who are converted into cash within one year. Like - accounts receivable, cash, inventory, prepaid insurance, etc.

The total amount of the current assets are shown below:

= Accounts receivable + Cash + Inventory +  Short-term investments + Prepaid insurance

= $100,000 + $70,000 + $80,000 + $2,000

= $252,000

The other items represent current liabilities, long term liabilities, intangible assets, and the fixed assets so, we do not consider them in the computation part.
