Answer:

The answer is: If Allen is a professional gambler, he can use his gambling losses to offset the income from his gambling activities.  

Explanation:

We can consider the airfare and hotel expenses as income part of Allen's income (+$3,000) but since he lost more money in the casino (-$25,000), the net effect is an economic loss (-$22,000).

That economic loss isn't tax deductible unless he was a professional gambler, then he could offset his income by $22,000.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Order cycle time is the period between the two orders, i.e., previous order and next order. If there is an ample amount of demand for a product, the order cycle time of that particular product will be low. As customer wants the product very often, the inventory will become nil, and there will be a positive cash flow. As the inventory level decreases, the current assets will be lower. As customers pay quickly, the receivables will also remain lower.
