Answer: Polychronic Time

Explanation: A culture that makes use of Polychronic time engages in so many activities at a time, and most times end up not being able to meet up with their main objective.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Effective interest rate = [(Interest value of loan / Amount of loan after payment of interest) * (Number of months annually / Number of months notes hold)] * 100

= [($5,830 / $100,170) * (12 / 6)] * 100

= 0.1164 * 100

= 11.64%

1.

Computation the interest value of loan is:

Interest value of loan = Amount of loan * 8 / 12 * Percentage of discount

= ($106,000 * 6/ 12 )* 0.11

= $5,830

2.

Amount of loan after payment of interest = Amount of loan - Interest value of loan

= $106,000 - $5,830

= $100,170

A company that recently lost patent protection for a product may see an increased threat from which​ forces? g
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

  • Threat of Substitutes
  • Threat of New entrants/ Competitors

Explanation:

This question relates to Porter's five forces.

A patent on a good protects that good from being able to be copied or produced by other companies.

Should a company lose this protection, companies will be allowed to make substitutes to the products without running afoul of the law. The company will therefore face an increased threat from Substitutes.

Other companies will also be able to produce the goods or offer the services now which would mean that new entrants/ competitors can come into the market for that good or service.

LiRa [457]

Answer:

The company should recognize a gain on disposal of $29500

Explanation:

The straight line depreciation method charges a constant depreciation expense per year through out the estimated useful life of the asset.

The straight line depreciation expense per year is,

(Cost - salvage value) / estimated useful life

Depreciation expense = (910000 - 0) / 8   =  $113750

The number of years till 31 December 2013 = 6 years

The accumulated depreciation till December 31, 2013 = 113750 * 6 = $682500

The carrying value of the asset at 31 December 2013 = 910000 - 682500 = $227500

The gain/loss on sale = 257000 - 227500  =  $29500 gain
