Answer:
$4,375
Explanation:
Given that,
Crane Company balance = $9,250
Balance of Hale company = $3,000
Balance of Janish company = $1,875
January 1 balance in the Valdez Company subsidiary account:
= Crane Company Accounts Payable control account + Hale Company balance + Janish Company balance
= $9,250 + $3,000 + $1,875
= $4,375
Answer:
The budget for The Twilight Saga: New Moon = $50 million
Explanation:
Let the budget for Twilight Saga: New Moon = T
Let the budget for Harry Potter: The Half Blood Prince = H
We are given the following:
(The budget for Twilight Saga is one-fifth the budget for Harry Potter)
Cross multiplying the equation
5T = H - - - - (1)
H + T = 300,000,000 - - - - - (2) (Together the budgets totaled $300 million)
Next, let us substitute the value of H in equation (2) with equation (1)
(5T) + T = 300,000,000
6T = 300,000,000
Therefore, the budget for The Twilight Saga: New moon = $50,000,000
And the budget for Harry Potter: The Half Blood Prince = $250,000,000
Answer:
a. 56%
b. 62%
Explanation:
a. Janitorial costs are allocated based on square feet.
Assembly Department Square feet = 42,560
Total area for both departments = 42,560 + 33,440 = $76,000
Percentage of costs
= 42,560/ 76,000
= 56%
b. Security costs are allocated based on asset value.
Cutting Department Asset Value = $126,480
Total asset value for both departments = 77,520 + 126,480 = $204,000
Percentage of costs
= 126,480/ 204,000
= 62%
<span>Employers normally require employees to pay a large portion of thecost of the life insurance benefit.</span>
<span>The correct answer is that it depends on the specifics of the incentive plan. A general incentive plan that is not linked directly to productivity will typically become old news to staff within a few years. What was once an incentive will become familiar and may be viewed as an entitlement as staff start looking for the eternal "what's next?".
An incentive directly linked to some kind of productivity (e.g. hours worked) will have a far longer shelf life (though this will, of course, vary by employee). In this scenario the ongoing incentive remains year over year (e.g. the hours of overtime worked in the previous year will have no bearing on the current year so if you want a similar result you will need to maintain your effort whereas if you want a better result you will have to increase your effort).
All incentive plans, however, are subject to the rules of diminishing marginal utility to the employees and will diminish over time as the employee either becomes comfortable at a certain productivity level or becomes disenchanted by other factors.
In summation: an incentive plan, if designed properly, can work for a relatively long period of years though results may vary by employee as everyone is motivated by different things (though providing an alternative incentive to money may somewhat mitigate this additional potential problem).</span>
