Answer:

Explanation:

If input increase by 15% and output increase by 15% then the equation for productivity will be

Input = 100% + 15% = 115%

Output = 100% + 15% = 115%

$productivety =\frac{Outpu t }{Inpu t}$

$productivety=\frac{1.15}{1.15}$

$productivty = 1$

Percentage change = 1-1

Percentage change = 0%

If both Output and input is increased by the same amount the results will be the same

A ____ borrower is a borrower with a flawed credit history and an _________is a borrower who states his or her income but does n

viva [34]

Answer:

A SUBPRIME borrower is a borrower with a flawed credit history and an ALT-A BORROWER is a borrower who states his or her income but does not document or prove the amount of income.

Explanation:

Subprime borrowers are borrowers that have a bad credit score and because of this, any bank or other lending institution will either reject them as clients or charge them a really high interest rate on a loan.

An Alt-A borrower is in the middle between a prime borrower (good credit score) and a subprime borrower. He/she will not get rejected as often, but the interest rates will still be relatively high and the amounts of money borrowed tend to be smaller than prime borrowers. Some companies like Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac do not accept Alt-A borrowers, but most banks do.

All of the following are reasons to use an estimated method of costing inventory except: A. perpetual inventory records are not

morpeh [17]

Answer:

The answer is: B) purchase records are not maintained.

Explanation:

There are two methods for estimating inventory costs:

Gross Profit Method : uses the information from the income statement. If operating conditions remain similar, the proportion between total sales, profits and COGS should be similar (lets say profit is 30% and COGS is 70% of total sales). You can estimate your inventory costs by using the information on total sales.
Retail Method: It is used mostly by merchandising firms (retailers) that have consistent mark-ups. You have to determine the proportion between cost and retail price (lets say the COGS is 80% of the retail price). Then if you are given the retail inventory, you can determine the COGS using the proportion determined previously.
