Corporate social responsibility: Group of answer choices

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Letter e is correct.<em> Extends beyond ethics to include community, environment, and human rights</em>

Explanation:

Corporate social responsibility refers to the voluntary commitment that companies have to make a contribution to the development of the society in which it operates, in addition to reducing its environmental impacts and ensuring the preservation of human rights. This is when the company implements beneficial actions that exceed those required by law.

In a globalized world, there is legal pressure from consumers, institutions, NGOs and the media to make companies not only profitable but also voluntary contributors to building a more egalitarian society.

The benefits added to companies that practice corporate social responsibility are diverse, with emphasis on improving community value and improving stakeholder satisfaction and perception.

a and b are the same with the same amount of capital transferred from one partner to another partner, it is just a matter of derecognizing Benson and recognize North or Schmidt.

c) Partner Benson is paid cash her capital,

d) decrease in meir's Capital = 214,000-138,000 = 76,000*3/8= $28,500

Decrease in Lau's Capital Account = $76,000 5/8 = 47,500

Excess funds are taken from capitals or income summary account of the partnership which will affect the capitals of the remaining partners

e) Meir's Capital = $138,000 -(70,000-23,000+30,000)

= $138,000-77,000

= $61,000*3/8 =$22,875

Lau = $61,000*5/8 =38,125

The Capital Accounts of the remaining partners will increase because of the gain made on buying out the leaving partner.

Purple Rose Corporation reported pretax book income of $500,000.

Vikentia [17]

Answer: $68,000

Explanation:

Let us assume that we are given a tax rate of 34% to use in computing the question. Therefore, Purple Rose's current income tax expense or benefit will be:

Pre-tax book income = $500,000

Less: Tax depreciation = $300,000

Net Income = $500,000 - $300,000 = $200,000

Current income tax expenses at 34% will then be:

= 34% × Net income

= 34/100 × $200,000

= $68,000
