Answer:

Find the explanation below.

Explanation:

Whistleblowing is the act of raising an alarm over unethical or illegal acts committed by people holding political or public service positions. The whistleblower is most times motivated by the quest to end the injustice or negative impact suffered by the disadvantaged group. Whistleblowers suffer tremendous obstacles from the people they have exposed because;

1. The offender's source of illegal income has been withdrawn. Just like humans fight for survival when their source of livelihood is taken away, so would a person fight against whatever that tends to take away their illegal source of wealth.

2. Fear of being seen in a negative light by others. The person committing a crime usually puts up an act of innocence, thus presenting himself as a morally upright person. When the whistleblower tries to expose their true identity, it is only expected that they would try to shut him up.

Which of the following statements about the Consumer Decision Process is false?
Harman [31]

Answer:

The answer is: A) In a successful purchase, every stage in the process has to happen.

Explanation:

Sometimes we as customers don´t have the time or are unable to follow all the stages in the consumer decision process. Many times it depends on what need we want to satisfy. For instance, if we are hungry or thirsty we might decide to eat at the first restaurant we find. It doesn´t mean we made a bad choice, it simply happened that way because we didn´t have time to research about all the restaurants in the area and then evaluate and decide which one was the best for us. Many daily purchases are part of our daily routine. Imagine how many hours we would spend at a grocery store if we had to follow every step of the process.

On the other hand, if I´m searching for a new house, I will follow steps one through five several times, over and over again until I finally decide which house to buy.

Goods in process     16200

Factory Overhead     4830

       Factory Payroll               21030

----------------------    -    -------------------------------

Explanation: The payment of the total labor factory costs must be recorded, we debit the "Factory payroll" cost account and credit the "cash" account as they were paid in cash.

Then we must allocate these costs to the production process, therefore we debit the "goods in process" account for the amount of <u>direct labor</u> consumed, and "factory overhead" for the amount of <u>indirect labor </u>consumed, and finally credit the account " Factory payroll " for the total.
