A sports team's owner is given a videotape of his star player physically striking his girlfriend in an elevator, causing her sev

ere injuries. The player has not been accused of any crime. Each player's employment contract states that a player may be terminated for committing battery. If the owner fires the player, the team will win fewer games, which will result in lower attendance and lower revenues for the stadium and the team. The owner may even have to lay off some employees.

Answer:

The answer is: John Akers would have probably fired the player and made the video public.

Explanation:

Akers firmly believed that ethics were fundamental to economic competitiveness. He argued that without ethical behavior, individuals, corporations and society as a whole couldn´t be economically competitive.

So in this case, he would have simply terminated the players contract without regarding any of the potential downsides for the team.

GRECO RESORT TRIAL BALANCE AUGUST 31, 2014

Buildings 120,000 Equipment 16,000

Explanation:

First, calcualte the depreciable amount:

cost less salvage value:

120,000 - 10% = 120,000 * (1 - 0.1) = 108,000

Now we multiply this by the depreciation rate which represent 1/useful life

108,000 x 4% = 108,000 x 0.04 = 4,320

We do the same with the equipment

16,000* (1 - 0.1) = 14,800 amount subject to depreciation

14,800 * 10% = 14,800 x 0.1 = 1,480

he adjusting entry will debit the depreciation expense and increase the accumulated depreciation of eahc asset
