Roofing Issues. Sally agrees to roof a house for Bob. After doing his research, Bob chooses Sally based on her great reputation

for being conscientious and doing good work. Bob knows little about roofing and stays away from all the noise involved. Sally provides her own tools for herself and other workers, sets her own schedule, and charges a flat rate of $10,000 to be paid when the job is completed. Sally hires Trudy, Glen, and Fred to help with the roofing. She pays them an hourly rate, supervises their work, provides them with tools and materials, and sets their schedules. Curious about what is going on there, Bob's friend Spencer walks by the house while the roofing is being done. Glen absentmindedly throws some old shingles off the roof and hits Spencer in the head, resulting in him going to the local emergency room and receiving a couple of stitches in his scalp. Spencer decides to sue all the roofers, Bob, and Sally for his hospital expenses and for pain and suffering. Which of the following is the most likely characterization of Trudy, Glen, and Fred in relation to Sally?
a. Spencer will win, because Glen was acting within the scope of his employment; therefore, Sally is liable for his negligence
b. Spencer will lose, because Glen was not acting within the scope of his employment; therefore, Sally is not liable for his negligence.
c. Spencer will win because regardless of whether Glen was acting within the scope of his employment, Sally is liable for his negligence
d. Spencer will lose because regardless of whether Glen was acting within the scope of his employment, Sally has no liability.
e. Spencer and Sally will split the damages equally

Answer:

C. Spencer will win because regardless of whether Glen was acting within the scope of his employment, Sally is liable for his negligence

Explanation:

Spencer will win the lawsuit and Sally is liable for negligence.

This is because, Sally was the person originally hired to do the roofing job.

She hired other workers to help her with the job, so she's liable to their actions and inactions.

Sally is operating under a working agreement (contract) and has already charged a fee of $10,000 so any punitive damages would be her responsibility.

Spencer was moving around and Glen threw some roofing shingles without any word of warning to people that might be in harm's way. So for Glenn's actions, Sally is liable for his negligence.

mr_godi [17]

Complete Question:

S4-2 (similar to) Question Help. Sally's Furniture uses departmental overhead rates​ (rather than a plantwide overhead​ rate) to allocate its manufacturing overhead to jobs. The​ company's two production departments have the following departmental overhead​ rates: Cutting​ Department: $8 per machine hour Finishing​ Department: $14 per direct labor hour Job 112112 used the following direct labor hours and machine hours in the two manufacturing​ departments:

Resources used for Job 112112​

                                Cutting        Finishing

Direct Labor Hours      6               10

Machine Hours            6                7

Requirements:

1. How much manufacturing overhead should be allocated to Job 112112​?

2. Assume that direct labor is paid at a rate of $23 per hour and Job 112112 used $2,400 of direct materials. What was the total manufacturing cost of Job 112112​? 1. How much manufacturing overhead should be allocated to Job 112112​? Calculate the total manufacturing overhead for the job by using a formula for each​ department's overhead amount and then adding both amounts together. First determine the formula and overhead for the Cutting Department.

Answer:

Sally's Furniture

1. Manufacturing overhead allocated to Job 112112:

Cutting department = Machine hour rate x machine hours

= $8 x 6 = $48

Finishing department = Direct labor hour  rate x direct labor hours

= $14 x 10 = $140

Total manufacturing overhead = $188 ($48 + 140)

2. Total manufacturing cost of Job 112112:

Direct materials = $2,400

Direct labor        =      368 (16 x $23)

Overhead          =       188

Total cost           = $2,956

Explanation:

a) Data:

Departmental overhead​ rates:

Cutting​ Department: $8 per machine hour

Finishing​ Department: $14 per direct labor hour

b) Job Costing is a costing method that allocates the costs of resources for manufacturing goods and services according to the costs consumed by each job.  Each job becomes a cost center for accumulating costs instead of the process involved in the production.  The system helps management to keep track of the costs of each job.

MJ LTD is expected to grow at various rates over the next five years. The company just paid a $1.00 dividend. The company expect
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

$21.859

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

Present Value = D0 × (1 + growth rate)^time ÷ (1 + Required Rate of Return)^time period

1st Year PV = $1 × (1 + 0.20)^1 ÷ (1+ 0.12)^1

                  = 1.20 ÷ 1.12

                 = 1.071

2nd Year PV = $1 × (1 + 0.20)^2 ÷ (1+ 0.12)^2

                   = $1 × (1.44) ÷ 1.254

                  = $1.148

3rd Year PV = $1 × ( 1 + 0.20)^2 × (1 + 0.10) ÷ (1 + 0.12)^3

                    = $1 × (1.44) × (1.10) ÷ 1.405

                     = $1.127

4th Year PV = $1 × ( 1 + 0.20)^2 × (1 + 0.10)^2 ÷ ( 1 +0.12)^4

                    = $1 × (1.44) × (1.21) ÷ 1.574

                     = $1.107

5th Year PV = $1 × (1 + 0.20)^2 × ( 1 +0.10)^3 ÷ (1 + 0.12)^5

                     = $1 × (1.44) × (1.331) ÷ 1.762

                     = $1.088

6th Year PV = $1 × (1 + 0.20)^2 × (1 + .10)^3 × (1.05) ÷ [(0.12 - 0.05) × (1+.12)^5]

= $1 × (1.44) × (1.331) × (1.05) ÷ (0.07) ×  (1.762)

= $2.012 ÷ 0.1233

= $16.318

Now

Share’s Current Value is

= $1.071 + $1.148 + $1.127 + $1.107 + $1.088 + $16.318

= $21.859

We simply applied the above formula

Which one of these statements related to discounted payback is correct?a) the discounted payback period decreases as teh discoun
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

A) the discounted payback period decreases as the discount rate increases

Explanation:

The discounted payback period is used to determine the profitability of an investment project.

A not discounted payback period is how long does it take for the cash flows of a project to recoup the investment's cost without considering the value of money in time. By applying a discount to the cash flows, the discounted period will more accurately measure the length of time needed to recoup an investment using current dollars.

The higher the discount rate, the longer it will take for the cash flows to cover the investment's cost, so if the discount rate lowers, then the discounted payback period will be shorter.
