Among a group of 2,500 people, 35 percent invest in municipal bonds, 18 percent invest in oil stocks, and 7 percent invest in bo
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Probability that the person selected will be one who invests in municipal bonds but not in oil stocks is  \frac{7}{25}

Explanation:

Given : Total no of people in the group = 2500

            Investors of municipal bonds = 35% i.e .35 × 2500 = 875

            Investors of both municipal bonds and oil stocks

         = 7% i.e .07 × 2500

         = 175

Hence, the investors who have invested in municipal bonds but not oil stocks = 875 - 175 = 700 investors

Probability that the person being selected will be one who invests in municipal bonds but not in oil stocks = \frac{No.\ of\ investors\ of\ municipal\ bonds}{Total\ no\ of\ investors}

= \frac{700}{2500}

=  \frac{7}{25}

Tina and Betty formed a partnership. Tina received a 40 percent interest in the partnership in exchange for land with an adjuste
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

c. $24,000

Explanation:

The computation of sale by partnership is shown below:-

The pre-contribution gain allocated to Tina = Fair market value - Adjusted basis

= $80,000 - $60,000

= $20,000

Gain on sales = Partnership to an unrelated third party - Fair market value

= $90,000 - $80,000

= $10,000

Tina partnership interest is 40 % of $10,000

= $4,000

Sale by partnership = pre-contribution gain + Tina partnership

= $20,000 + $4,000

= $24,000

Therefore for computing the sale by partnership we simply applied the above formula.

b. An automatic stay

2. The person defined as a debtor for liquidation purposes is

b. Individuals; Rodney can file.

3. If Rodney did not intend to file for voluntary liquidation, he could not be forced into bankruptcy.  a. No, he must file the bankruptcy himself.

4. One benefit of filing is that once a petition is filed, the code provides for a(n) _______________for almost all creditor litigation against the debtor.

e. Automatic stay

5. If the filing of Rodney's voluntary petition is proper, the petition automatically becomes a(n):_____.

e. Order of relief.

6. A possible consequence of Rodney's failure to show up at a creditors meeting is:

b. The court may refuse to grant the bankruptcy

Explanation:

In bankruptcy practices, an order for relief invokes the automatic stay.  It is a block on Rodney's debts which brings down the iron curtain, thus, separating Rodney's pre-bankruptcy from his post-bankruptcy.  It automatically creates a bankruptcy estate, which prohibits all unauthorized transfers of the Rodney's property.

In a production budget, if the number of units in finished goods inventory at the end of the period is less than the number of u
ivolga24 [154]

Answer: False

Explanation:

In a production budget, when the number of units in finished goods inventory at the end of the period is less than the number of units in the finished goods inventory at the beginning of the period, this simply means that the expected number of units sold is higher than the number of units that was produced for that particular period.

Fro example, let's assume that the beginning inventory is 20,000 and the units of goods produced is 25,000 while the units sold is 27,000. Then, the ending units will be:

= 20,000 + 25,000 - 27,000

= 18,000

As we can see from the example, the number of units in the finished goods inventory at the end of the period(18,000) is less than the number of units in the finished goods inventory at the beginning of the period(20,000), the expected number of units sold(27,000) is more or higher than the number of units to be produced(25,000) during the period.

victus00 [196]

Answer:

C. Debit Cost of goods Sold $5,000;

Credit Inventory $5,000

Explanation:

Preparation of the necessary adjusting entry to record inventory shrinkage

Since  we assumed  that the physical count of inventory showed $158,000 of inventory on hand and the inventory records reported $163,000 the first step to do is to find the difference  between the two amount which is ($163,000-$58,000) given us a different of $5,000 which will now be recorded as:

Debit Cost of goods Sold $5,000

(163,000-158,000)

Credit Inventory $5,000
