Answer: Yes they did.

Explanation:

Apparent Authority refers to a scenario where a Agent is assumed to have the power to act on behalf of a Principal regardless of if said authority had not being expressly given whether implicitly or otherwise.

It is worthy of note that this power is only valid if the third party in the transaction assumes from the conduct of the agent, that they have such powers to act.

It is stated in the text that there was no question that the brokers had the actual or implied authority to sell the stock meaning that the Principal had not done enough to show that the agents did not have the Authority to act as they did. For this reason, they can indeed be sued under the Principle of Apparent Authority.

Parton Company, a manufacturer of snowmobiles, is operating at 80% of plant capacity. Parton's plant manager is considering maki
ira [324]

Answer:

The answer is: a

Explanation:

The Parton Company has a 'make or buy' decision. This decision involves analysing the incremental costs associated with each option. Incremental costs are costs incurred as a result of producing one more unit of a product. If the excess capacity can be utilised to produce the headlights at a lower cost than the cost of acquiring the headlights from an external supplier, then the company should produce the headlights.  

The Parton Company incurs $12.80 per headlight purchased from the external supplier. Added to this cost, are the existing costs of operating below plant capacity. If making the headlights in the manufacturing plant yields a positive contribution to fixed costs, then the Parton company should produce the headlights in the manufacturing plant.

By producing the headlights, the Parton company gains a contribution to fixed costs of $1.03 per headlight.

Foregone purchase costs from supplier:                          $12.80

Incurred costs (directly) from production:                        ($11.77)

Direct materials                                                                     ($4.45)

Direct Labour                                                                         ($3.45)

Manufacturing Overheads: $(6.45*0.6)                               <u>($3.87)</u>

Net gain per headlight                                                           <u> </u><u>$1.03</u>
