Finance charge Expense A/c Dr. $10,800
To Financing arrangement A/c $450,000
(To record the amount of borrowings)
Workings:

Answer: $2,085
Explanation:
Average monthly sales by the three salesperson are;
$125,000
$144,000
$148,000
Therefore, average total monthly sales by the three salesperson equals;
$125,000+$144,000+$148,000 = $417,000
Average total sales per month = $417,000
Monthly commission percentage = 0.5%
Monthly commission = 0.5% × 417,000
(0.5 ×417000) ÷ 100
208500 ÷ 100 = $2085
Monthly commission = $2,085
Answer: B. Operating income will increase by $ 45,000
Explanation:
Total fixed cost = $833,000
Sale price per unit = 60
Variable cost per unit = 30
Advertising = $30,000
Increase in sales volume = 2500
The contribution margin is the difference between the sales price per unit and the variable cost per unit.
= 60 - 30
= 30
Therefore, Hence the increase in the contribution margin will be:
= ($30 × 2500)=$75000
We then subtract the additional cost of $30,000 from $75,000. This will be:
= $75,000 - $30,000
= $45,000
Therefore, operating income will increase by $45,000
Answer:
discretion.
Explanation:
A manager can be defined as an individual who is saddled with the responsibility of providing guidance, support, supervision, administrative control, as well as acting as a role model or example to the employees working in an organization by being morally upright.
Generally, managers are typically involved in taking up leadership roles and as such are expected to be build a strong relationship between their employees or subordinates by creating a fair ground for effective communication and sharing of resources and information. Also, managers are required to engage their staff members (entire workforce) in the most efficient and effective manner.
In this scenario, the leadership of the company exhibited a low degree of discretion, which would consequently limit Leslie's ability to influence the other staffs (employees) working in the company while trying to achieve his goal.
