Answer:

Journal Entry

General Ledger                   Dr.          Cr.

Cash                                 $7,085

Sales Tax Payable                           $585

Sales                                                 $6,500

Explanation:

Sales tax is the amount of tax collected by the business on the taxable sales from customers on behalf of government and pay it to government after that. Sales tax will be included in the cash received from the customer and recorded as the payable for the business.

Sales Value = $6,500

Sales Tax = 9%

Sales inclusive of Sales tax = $6,500 x 109% = $6,500 x 1.09 = $7,085

Brenda has recently been denied a promotion. This is the third time she was turned down for promotion despite excellent performa
Serggg [28]

Answer: The options are given below:

A. a diversity-oriented employer

B. a wide span of control

C. the glass ceiling effect

D. the black swan effect

E. an affirmative action

The correct option is C. The Glass Ceiling Effect

Explanation: The glass ceiling is a term used in organizations, it is a metaphor that is used to refer to an invisible and artificial barrier that prevents women and minority groups from being promoted to top managerial and executive level positions within an organization.

The scenario presented above is a perfect example of the glass ceiling effect, this is because, though Brenda is qualified for the promotion, she is denied it regardless, because "that's just the way things are". As you can see, the reason for the denial of her promotion is not a professional issue, just a tradition to always suppress the advancement of certain categories of people.

Bok advises campus officials (and students) simply to "ignore" offensive words, flags, and so forth (para. 13). Do you agree wit
Ugo [173]

Answer: 1. I do not agree with this advice.

2. I would rather propose dialogue as a better means to resolve situations where a person feels offended by the actions of others.

Explanation:

HOW WE OUGHT TO RESPOND TO THE OFFENSIVE ACTIONS OF OTHERS

Offensive Misconducts are actions intended to hurt others, perpetrated without consideration to the feelings of others. They can be carried out in the workplace, at school, at home, and in other social settings. These acts of misconduct can come in the form of bullying, racist or sexist comments, false accusations, physical attacks, threats, etc.

When faced with offensive misconduct, silence is not the best approach. Silence means consent and offensive misconduct are not meant to be condoned. They should rather be addressed using appropriate conflict resolution skills.

One such very important skill is dialogue. Dialogue is an approach that seeks to discuss the matter with the offender. The offended does not take on an offensive approach. He rather explains how the action affects him. He asks vital questions about the intentions of the offender. It might well be that the action might not have been aimed at being offensive. When addressing this issue, it is also important that an attitude of calmness be maintained by the person seeking to resolve the conflict.

Active listening should also be maintained when the other party is trying to explain himself. This would help the offended understand the viewpoint of the offender.

When a person who feels offended continues to ignore an offensive action, this might make him start nursing resentment, which might further lead to retaliatory actions. That is why it is very important to address offensive actions immediately instead of condoning them.

After taking the necessary actions, if the offender persists in his actions, the matter should be reported to an authority.

Arrange the types of investments in the correct order from the least risky to the most risky investment.
Anarel [89]

Bonds will be the least risky since there is no risk involved at all. Bonds give out guaranteed payments and A rated bonds will be even more secure.

The next would be property. Since property is a physical asset, the risk involved is relatively lower than stocks.

The next would be retirement plans which would typically have bonds and stocks.

The most risky would be speculative stocks.

The order from least risky to most risky would be:

1. A rated bonds

2. Property

3. Retirement plans

4. Speculative stocks
