Answer:

The capitalized cost will be "784,592".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Initial cost = $500,000

Annual operating cost = $20,000

Interest, i = 12% i.e., 0.12

Effective Two year interest rate, i₂ = (1.12)^2 - 1

                                                         = 0.2544

As we know,

Capitalized \ cost = Initial \ cost + \frac{Annual \ operating \ cost }{i}  + \frac{Bi-annual \ maintenance \ cost}{i_{2}}

Now on putting the estimated values in the above expression, we get

⇒                       =500,000+\frac{20,000 }{0.12} +\frac{30,000}{0.2544}

⇒                       = 500000 + 166667 + 117925

⇒                       = 784,592

So that the above is the right answer.

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer: a. Making authorized commitments

Explanation:

Executive Orders 12674 and 12731 (which amended 12674) of 1989 and 1990 respectively, were signed by President Bush with the purpose of setting forth the principles of ethical conduct that were required of Federal Government Officers and Employees.

These principles were meant to ensure that government officials and employees abstained from Abuse of power whilst working in such a way as not to bring disrepute to the Federal Government.

All of the above are violations of the Order except option A which is stated in Part I Section 101 (f) of Executive Order 12674. It reads that, "<em>Employees shall make no unauthorized statements</em>..." thus insinuating that employees are allowed to make Authorized statements.
