Answer:

Going by the Ease of Doing Business ranking of 2020, prepared by the World Bank, which is perhaps the most reliable ranking to assess business risk in different countries.

Russia has a higher score in the ranking, which means that doing business is less risky there. Poland has particularly high risks in the starting a business category, which means that the mere act of starting the business in Poland might be a risky decision.

Russia has a high risk in trading accross borders, probably because the country is subject to several international sanctions.

If we go only by score, Russia has a higher score, so, as the CEO, you should probably invest there. However, you should avoid investing in Russian companies that try to export abroad, because of the high risks associated with trade in that country.

nalin [4]

Answer:

a. Cash for $180

Explanation:

The receipts from the petty cash fund indicate that the owner of the box made purchases adding up to $177. Therefore that money is no longer part of the fund. Since the fund holds $200 and currently only has $20 then to replenish the account the journal entry would need to include a credit to cash for $180 ... ($200-$20=$180)

The amount of income under absorption costing will be more than the amount of income under variable costing when units manufactu
Sholpan [36]

Answer: A.exceed units sold

Explanation:

In Absorption Costing, All costs be it Fixed or Variable that are directly related to production are considered when computing the Cost of Production.

Under Variable Costs however, only variable Costs are considered for the computing of Cost of Production.

This difference in consideration of costs under each method leads to difference in income determination under each method.

Under Absorption Costing, fixed manufacturing costs are apportioned on produced units and the costs are only recovered when the units are sold but under variable costing, fixed manufacturing costs are treated as period costs and are therefore charged to the Income statement.

This means that, the amount of income under absorption costing will be more than the amount of income under variable costing when units manufactured exceed units sold.

andrew-mc [135]

Giving the following information:

p = price per unit

d = 800 - 10p

p must be between $20 and $70.

Elastic demand

romanna [79]

Answer:

a. 1.27%

b. 15.24%

c. 16.35%

Explanation:

a. What is the monthly return on this investment vehicle?

The formula for the value of a Perpetuity is;

Value = Payment/ rate

Rate = Payment/ Value

Rate = 1,450/114,000

= 0.0127

= 1.27%

b. What is the APR?

APR is the annual rate. The above figure is the monthly rate.

APR = Monthly rate * 12

= 1.27 * 12

= 15.24%

c. What is the effective annual return?

Effective annual return = [1 + (APR/n)]^n – 1

n is the number of compounding periods which is 12 here for monthly compounding.

= [1 + (15.24%/12)]^12– 1

= 16.35%
