With the absence of the options to choose from, lets look at general results of using cost-benefit analysis.

Explanation:

using cost-benefit analysis is a strategic way of making decisions based on cost and benefit solely.

Ideally any investment or strategic decision to be made by an institution needs a cost-benefit analysis.

This is done by listing all the projected resources needed to take up the strategic objective and costed. After which another list is made of the potential benefit that is likely to come to the organisation.

When the two is compared we say you are making cost-benefit analysis.

More often without secondary reasons, the option with the highest benefit over cost is chosen.

This cost and benefit analysis are made both qualitatively and quantitatively.

Quantitatively methods such as NPV are used.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

$118,860

Explanation:

Gross Margin:

= Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold

= $290,000 - $100,000

= $190,000

Profit before tax:

= Gross Margin - Salaries - Insurance payment - Interest

= $190,000 - $12,000 - $3,600 - $4,600

= $169,800

Insurance payment: Only half of 2-year payment of 7,200 is relevant for this year.

Net Income:

= Profit before tax - Tax at 30%

= $169,800 - (30% × $169,800)

= $169,800 - $50,940

= $118,860

anyanavicka [17]

To explain the high mortality zone in tropical Africa, we would have to consider the fact that disease might be a measure of population control for primates, including human beings. Whenever a population gets sick and there is no way to get better, a lot of its members might die off, which is ultimately the survival of the fittest. Those who do not succumb to the disease will stay alive whereas the others may not.

1) $4500 $ 9000 $4500 $ 4500

2) $ 9600 $12500 1900 $ 6400

3) $12800 15000 2200 $ 8600

4) 16550 22000 5450 14,050

Explanation:

The actual write off accounts originating in the years were

1) ( $ 4500+ $ 3000+ $ 1000+ $ 1500)= $ 9500

2) ( $ 6600+ 3700+ 4300) = $ 14600

3) ($ 8100+ $ 10,750)= $ 18,850.

Only the first year written off accounts are close to expense if it would have been calculated to 1% of sales ( 1% of $ 900,000) = $ 9000
