Answer:

The conquest of Constantinople by the Ottomans marked the end of the Byzantine Empire. It also significantly weakened the position of the Orthodox church compared to the Catholic church.

Islam was the official religion of the Ottoman Empire. The highest position in Islam, caliphate, was claimed by the sultan, after the defeat of the Mamluks which was established as Ottoman Caliphate. The Sultan was to be a devout Muslim and was given the literal authority of the Caliph.

The fall of the city removed what was once a powerful defense for Christian Europe against Muslim invasion, allowing for uninterrupted Ottoman expansion into eastern Europe.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

After the conquest, Sultan Mehmed II transferred the capital of the Ottoman Empire from Edirne to Constantinople. Constantinople was transformed into an Islamic city: the Hagia Sophia became a mosque, and the city eventually became known as Istanbul.

Explanation:

Constantinople was the heart of the Byzantine Empire. It became the capital of the Ottoman Empire when it was conquered in 1453 by the Ottoman Sultan Mehmet II.

Mehmet slaughtered many of the population and forced the rest into exile, later repopulating the city by importing people from elsewhere in Ottoman territory.

Mehmet renamed Constantinople Istanbul – the 'city of Islam' - and set about rebuilding it, both physically and politically, as his capital.

Economics

Istanbul became not only a political and military capital, but because of its position at the junction of Europe, Africa, and Asia, one of the great trade centres of the world. Another important city was Bursa, which was a centre of the silk trade.

Some of the later Ottoman conquests were clearly intended to give them control of other trade routes.

Among the goods traded were:

Silk and other cloth

Musk

Rhubarb

Porcelain from China

Spices such as pepper

Dyestuffs such as indigo

The economic strength of the Empire also owed much to Mehmet's policy of increasing the number of traders and artisans in the Empire.

He first encouraged merchants to move to Istanbul, and later forcibly resettled merchants from captured territories such as Caffa.

He also encouraged Jewish traders from Europe to migrate to Istanbul and set up in business there. Later rulers continued these policies.

Natali5045456 [20]

If the government takes this approach, consumer surplus would increase.

A monopoly is when there is only one firm operating in an industry. A natural monopoly occurs when there is a high start-up cost associated with opening a business or a firm enjoys economies of scale.

Consumer surplus is the difference between the willingness to pay of a consumer and the price of the good. As the price of a good declines, consumer surplus increases. P2 is lower than P1, this means that if price is regulated to P2, consumer surplus would increase.

The following control procedures are used in Bunny’s Boutique Shoppe for cash disbursements. For each procedure, explain the wea

Sav [38]

Answer:

a. Principle Violated - Physical Controls

Weakness - The cheques are not stored in a secure area and so can be misused if people who find it have ill minds about it.

b. Principle Violated - Segregation of Duty

Weakness - The approval and payment of bills is done by the same individual. This can give rise to the store manager approving fraudulent payments and then authorizing it herself.

c. Principles Violated - . Establishment of responsibility; Documentation procedures

Weakness - Unauthorized employees making purchases.

Not all employees should have the power to approve purchases for resale.

Weakness - Use of cash instead of checks; no prenumbered invoices.

Checks should be used to disburse the cash so that payment may be cancelled if need be. Also prenumbered invoices should be used so that purchases can be tracked.

d. Principle Violated - Documentation Procedures

Weakness - Filing does not prevent a bill from being paid more than once

Just because the bills are filed does not mean that they won't be paid more than once. A more sophisticated method is needed that reflects when a bill has been paid to prevent it being paid for again.

e. Principle Violated - Independent Internal Verification

Weakness - The bank reconciliation is not independently prepared

The bank reconciliation should not be prepared by the same person who has been in charge of the accounting entries in the company. Someone else should do it to ensure that no fraudulent transactions were recorded.
