Answer:

7

Explanation:

Depreciation expense using the straight line depreciation method = (Cost of asset - Salvage value) / useful life

Useful life isn't given

Cost of asset = $80,0000

Salvage value = $20,000

Depreciation expense = $5,000

$5,000 = ($80,000 - $20,000) / x

$5,000 = $60,000 / x

X = 12

The useful life is 12 years

If accumulated depreciation is $25,000, the number of years so far would be $25,000 / $5,000 = 5 years

Remaining year = 12 - 5 = 7 years

What is a disadvantage of government bonds?
hjlf
None of those answers are suitable to me.

Government bonds are generally regarded as low-risk and they typically have modest (low) interest rates for return on investment, and these are advantages really. So we can discount answer A, C, and D.

I guess you could say that bonds can be hard to find (Answer B) but this not really true. There is always a bond market to trade bonds on. It requires setting up a trading account or speaking to a broker so this can be more difficult than putting money in a bank account, but to be honest I don't think any of those answers are appropriate for the question.

Answer:

Total Revenues would increase because Demand is Inelastic

Explanation:

Demand is buyers ability & willingness to buy at a given price, time.

Elasticity of Demand is quantity demanded responsiveness to price change.

More Elastic Demand means quantity demanded responds highly to change in price. Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded > Percentage Change in Price. Elasticity of Demand [Δ%Q / Δ%P] >1 in this case. Price and Total Revenue (PxQ) are inversely related in this case ; i.e - price rise, TR fall & price fall, TR rise.

Less Elastic Demand means quantity demanded responds less to change in price. Percentage Change in Quantity Demanded < Percentage Change in Price. Elasticity of Demand [Δ%Q / Δ%P] < 1 in this case. Price and Total Revenue (PxQ) are positively related in this case ; i.e - price rise, TR rise & price fall, TR fall.

So: If Sam's Pint price change by 20% leads to demand fall by 4%, the demand is less elastic i.e < 1. Hence, Total Revenue will increase with increase in price.

podryga [215]

Answer:

A clause that says Timothy (A construction worker) cannot work as a construction worker within the city for fifteen years once he leaves the company  is Legal because the employer can add any constraint to the agreement.

Explanation:

The provisions of employment contracts usually include an explanation of compensation, penalties and in peculiar cases post-employment clause.

Post-employment clause usually comes with additional benefits like payment of severance.

Enforcing an employment contract varies according to state laws. For this reason, before entering into a written employment contract, clean employee has to be clear on the terms and provisions of the contract because once you append your signature to any provision stipulated by the employer in the contract, it is binding.

Post-employment restrictive covenants are only useful to the employer if they can be enforced. Continued payment of severance often provides the employer with leverage when trying to enforce restrictive covenants in an employer's contract.  

Generally, the employer and employee must be in compliance with the employment contract.
