exis [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": No.

Explanation:

The purpose of the research is to determine what prospects are purchasers and non-purchasers. Then, if only information about refunds is considered, out of the whole population the study will be selecting only the portion of individuals who made a purchase but requested a reimbursement.  

Thus, <em>it is not suitable to consider as a variable people who made a refund only</em>.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

a=   54796

h=  80,824

d=117916  

i=67915.68  

e=$ 352196  

b=  58,800  

f= 373496

j=  234500

c= 15100

k=   1900

g=3721596

Explanation:

Orlando Company

Manufacturing Cost Data

                                                 Case A          Case B       Case C

Direct materials used                 (a)               $91,200    $69,000

a=149,800 - 42,804-  52,200     54796

Direct labor                               52,200         143,800          (h)

$69,000 +x+0.82h= 216100

1.82h= 216100-69000

h= 147100/1.82= 80,824                                                     80,824

Manufacturing overhead applied 42,804      (d)                   (i)

d=82% of 143,800=117916                                 117916

i=82% of 80824 =  67915.68                                                 67915.68                      

Total manufacturing costs 149,800                 (e)              216,100

e=$91,200+ 143,800+ 117916                              352196

Work in process 1/1/14              (b)                21,300           18,400

b=208,600- 149,800                   58,800

Total cost of work in process 208,600         (f)                   (j)

f=352196+ 21,300                                           373496

j=216,100 + 18,400                                                               234500

Work in process 12/31/14             (c)               11,900            (k)

c=208,600 - 193,500                     15100

k=234500 -232,600                                                            1900

Cost of goods manufactured 193,500           (g)             232,600

g=373496- 11,900                                         3721596

The formulas used are given below.

Total Manufacturing Cost = Direct Materials + Direct Labor + Factory Overheads

Total cost of work in process= Total manufacturing costs+ Opening Work in process

Cost of goods manufactured= Total cost of work in process - Closing Work in process

In each of these if two amounts are known we can find the third one.We can also do rearrange these to find the required amounts.The calculation of each of the missing amount has been done next to it.

Wanda is in charge of acquisitions for her company. Realizing that water is important to company operations, Wanda buys a plant
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

This is a very unlikely situation, since the plant must be really large and the river probably didn't carry a lot of water in the first place. But even if this was possible, it would be illegal for a company to use 100% of the natural resources available. No law or regulation (municipal, state or federal) would allow such thing to happen and assuming it got to court, the court would rule against the company.

Since you need an environmental impact report before you start building a factory, then it would be unlikely that the factory or plant was legally authorized to operate in the first place. The only option is that they built a dam and that is highly regulated.
