Answer:
investing in individual stocks can be risky if you do not invest in a relatively large number of different stocks, because you need diversification in order to help limit your risk.
Explanation:
In general "putting all your eggs into one basket" can be a risky proposition. If you only have enough money to invest in one stock then if that stock goes down in value, your entire investment goes down by the same amount. However, if you are able to invest in multiple, diversified stocks - that is, stocks for companies that operate in varying fields or businesses - when one stock goes down in value it's possible/likely other(s) will not and may go up in value. Since mutual funds exist, and mutual funds that invest in stocks do so by investing in multiple stocks, you are able to reduce your risk by purchasing a mutual fund. Each and every share in a mutual fund spreads your investment across multiple stocks for you. Many investors just don't have enough money to invest in enough individual stocks to diversify their portfolio.
Answer:
B. conformity
Explanation:
Conformity is a term in psychology that describes the tendency of a person(s) to adopt the behaviour of the people around them or of the people in a group they belong to.
Monica adopted the behaviour of her group of friends.
Labelling theory postulates that individuals may adopt the characteristics of the labels people use to describe them and this may shape their identity.
Differential association theory states that people learn how to become criminals by interacting with people.
For Q1, you have to set these equations equal to each other because it is asking how much of x is necessary to make the same amount of y, so:
3995 + 225.50x = 6500 + 100.25x
solve for x:, and get x=20
so 20 tons of sugar will give the companies the same cost.
For Q2: you need to plug in x=20 into either one of the original equations, and solve for y because this will give you the cost of transportation, so:
y= 3995 + 225.50(20)
y=$8,505 for the total cost
Answer:
True
Explanation:
When deciding whether to accept special orders, it is important that opportunity costs is considered by managers.
It helps managers to make a good choice and not regret later.
When deciding whether to accept special orders, it is important to compare and calculate what extra revenues that will be made against the extra costs that will be incurred.

Answer:
August 2 Notes Receivable 8000 Dr
Accounts Receivable- Ryan 8000 Cr
October 30 Interest receivable 220 Dr
Interest Revenue 220 Cr
October 31 Cash 8220 Dr
Notes Receivable 8000 Cr
Interest Receivable 220 Cr
Explanation:
When we receive the Note against the Accounts Receivable, we will credit the Accounts Receivable to close the account of Ryan and create a new current asset account of Notes Receivable on August 2.
On October 30, 90 days period of Note is complete so we will record the interest that is receivable for us on this note.
- Interest Receivable = 8000 * 11% * 90/360 = $220
We record this as Interest Receivable as we have not received this and credit Interest revenue as it is our income.
On 31 October, when we receive cash it will be total of Notes payable and Interest so we will debit cash by 8220 and credit the Notes payable and interest receivable.
