given data

wages and salaries = $1,420 per month

per birth = $246

planned for activity = 107  births

actual level of activity = 103 births

actual wages and salaries = $27,795

to find out

activity variance for wages and salaries

solution

we know wages and salaries cost for October is

wages and salaries Planning budget  = 1420 + ( 107 × 246 )

wages and salaries Planning budget = $27742

and

Wages and salaries  Flexible budget = 1420 + ( 103 × 246 )

Wages and salaries  Flexible budget = $26758

so

activity variance = $27742 - $26758

activity variance =  $984 F

A salesperson is offering promissory notes for a company selling coffee at drive-through kiosks. The notes pay a 13% interest ra
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Legitimate promissory notes are marketed to sophisticated, corporate investors that have the ability to thoroughly research the company issuing the notes and determine whether the issuer will be able to repay principal and interest.   There have been many instances of "promissory note fraud" where unlicensed individuals push bogus promissory notes that are sold as investments that offer above-market fixed interest rates and safeguarding of principal - and most of there are frauds.  This is a major concern to state regulators.

To offer a promissory note, both the salesperson and the note must be registered in the state.  Only promisory notes that have maturities of 9 months or less, that are investment grade, and are sold in minimum increments of $50,000 are exempt from registration.  

Finally, the tell-tale sign of fraud are:

Statements that tho notes are "guaranteed" or insured, especially by bogus foreign entities.

Promises of above-market rates fo return

Statements that the notes are "risk"free"

The labeling of a star-up company´s notes as prime

Offers of promissory notes from a stanger who does not know the costumer financial situation

Net income

Net income will be calculated using simple cashflow equation given below.

Closing cash balance = opening cashflow + net income + depreciation + cash flow from operations + cash flow investment + cash flow finance

25,000 = 55,000 + net income + 10,000 - 75,000 - 250,000 + 170,000

Net income = 115,000
