For those brave enough to act effectively now to stabilise and protect your

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

One important financial reporting instrument for measuring and assessing an organisations liquidity risk is the Cash Flows statement. It speaks to the availability of cash in the short term, and or assets that can be readily converted to cash.

In other words, when a business has immediate financial obligations, cash refers to those resources that can be used to satisfy them.

An understanding of cash flows is crucial to business success because it:

provides a clear picture of an organisations cash status or liquidity;

helps business owners plan for how much cash expected in the future and when it is likely to come;

when organisations want to benchmark their performance against one another, it becomes very handy and useful. Banks, for instance, measure the ability of a business to meet it's liquidity requirements as a measure of eligibility to receive additional finance.

One way companies can maintain liquidity during this pandemic is to control overhead expenses. Necessity is the mother of invention. Companies can have their team brainstorm on creative ways to cut down on operational, administrative and production costs. Some costs which can be considered for downward revision are rent, labor costs (such as business performance incentives), professional fees, marketing costs, advertising costs, public relations etc.

Cheers!

Which of the following is an example of price discrimination? a. An online bookstore charges more for overnight shipping than st

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

c) Hotel rates for AAA members are lower than for nonmembers.

Explanation:

In business, the term price discrimination refers to the strategy by which the seller charges a different price for the SAME product because the seller knows that the client will pay that price. The key word of this definition is that the seller is offering the same service/product but at different costs

If we take a look at our options we can see that a) offers a different service (one is overnight shipping and the other is standard), b) also offers a different product (first-class seats vs. coach), finally, c) offers the same product (the same hotel rooms) but non members pay more for the rooms than AAA members.

Thus, the correct answer is c) Hotel rates for AAA members are lower than for nonmembers.

George earns $50,000 business profit per year by selling donuts. He pays $12,000 per year in rent to his Uncle Fred for the buil

Feliz [49]

Answer:

None of the multiple choices is correct. The correct answer should be: "Business profit will increase by $12,000 per year"

Explanation:

$12,000 per year is the rental rate.

If his Uncle Fred gives him the building, George will not pay the rental fee. Thus, the business profit will increase by $12,000 per year.

If we consider about the economic profit or implicit cost, it will not change.
