Assess the benefits and drawbacks of the high-speed rail project. In your opinion, do benefits outweigh drawbacks, or vice versa
Andrews [41]

Answer:

The benefits of a High Speed Rail in California:

  • It becomes a feasible alternative to air travel, because it can be either cheaper, or even faster, since passengers do not have to spend as much time on a train station as they do on an airport.
  • If demand is high enough, state highways can become less congested, because many people who would otherwise travel by car, would take a high speed train instead.
  • Because the trains are electric, they are likely to help reduce pollution.

The cons would be:

  • We cannot know for sure how many people would take the high speed trains. Demand could not be high enough to justify the cost.
  • The line would be very costly.
  • It could end up benefit only a small section of the population who would take the trains, or who travel often.

I believe that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks, as can be seen in most countries where high speed lines have been made between large cities. For example, in Spain, the line between Madrid and Barcelona is profitable. The same would likely happen for a line between Los Angeles and San Francisco.

What are the implications of starting a project based on tenuous projections that may or may not come true 10 years from now?

If demand projections are tenous, there is always the possiblity that the high speed line could not be profitable. However, this risk can be lowered if the line is made between highly populated cities.

Could you justify the California high-speed rail project from the perspective of a massive public works initiative?

Yes, a high speed rail would be a project that could massively impact California. The benefits of its operation could outweight the cost.

In other words, what other factors enter into the decision of whether to pursue a high-speed rail project?

As I said before, the most important factor is to construct line between highly populated cities in order to reduce the risk of not having enough demand. It has been demonstrated around the world, in Spain, in Italy, in Japan, in China, that high speed lines that connect very populated regions, can be profitable.

= $2,000.

Explanation:

a) Stock Transactions and Data during 2019:

Stock                                  Date      Date Sold  Sales Price ($) Cost Basis ($)

                                      Purchased

4,000 shares Green Co. 06/04/07 08/05/19       12,000              3,000

500 shares Gold Co.        02/12/17 09/05/19      54,000            62,000

5,000 shares Blue Co.   02/04/08  10/08/19       18,000            22,000

100 shares Orange Co.     11/15/18   07/12/19       19,000            18,000

Total                                                                   $103,000       $105,000

Net capital loss:

Long-term capital loss = $3,000

Short-term capital gain = $1,000

Net capital loss =            $2,000 ($3,000 - $1,000)

During 2017, Ziplock Manufacturing expected Job No. 89 to cost $700,000 in overhead, $1,000,000 in direct materials, and $500,00
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

a. not able to be determined from the provided information.

Explanation:

For determining the over applied or under applied, first, we have to compute the predetermined rate based on the direct material cost which is  

= $700,000 ÷ $1,000,000

= $0.70

Now the applied overhead is  

= $0.70 × $1,200,000

= $840,000

And, the actual overhead amount is not given by which we can find out the underapplied or overapplied overhead amount

So, in this case, the correct option is a.
