Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Diversification is a business strategy in which a company enters a field or market different from its core activity. It is a risk management strategy that mixes a wide variety of investments within a portfolio by allocating capital in a way that reduces the exposure to any one particular asset or risk.

Diversification merits strong consideration whenever a single-business company is faced with diminishing market opportunities and stagnating sales in its principal business.

anastassius [24]

Answer:

C. $9.50 per direct labor-hour

Explanation:

The computation of the predetermined overhead rate is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)

= $665,000

And, the direct labor-hours is 70,000  

So the rate is equal to

= $665,000 ÷ 70,000

= $9.5 per direct labor-hour

Although, before a partnership business can be dissolved, at least one of partners must give a notice of intent. If in the process of giving the notice, another member enters in a new contract, such will be valid and partners will still be held liable because the business has still not been dissolved in the eye of the law.

Any contract entered into by any partner in a partnership business aftet dissution becomes illegal hence not binding on other members.
