klemol [59]

Answer:

It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The souvenir sheets cost the postal service $1.15 each. St. Vincent has been selling these souvenir sheets for $10.00 each and ordinarily sells about 61,000 units. To test the market, the postal service recently priced a new souvenir sheet at $11.00 and sales dropped to 51,000 units.

We need to calculate the actual revenue and decide whether it is more convenient to increase the price or leave it as it is.

Actual revenue= 61,000 units* (10 - 1.15)= $539,850

New revenue= 51,000 units*(11 - 1.15)= $502,350

It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10

The situation described in the first excerpt, what is the inspector's opinion of employer taylor, ibbotson, and co.? what phrase
kap26 [50]

Full Question:

Directions: The following excerpts come from reports of child labor practices submitted to Parliament.

The first is from a report by Superintendent of Factory Inspections Robert A. Baker in 1836, three years after the 1833 Factory Act went into effect.

The second is a personal narrative from a report compiled by the Children's Employment Commission nearly 30 years later in 1864. Read the excerpts and answer the questions that follow:

<em>My Lord, in the case of Taylor Ibbotson, and Co., I took the evidence from the mouths of the boys themselves. They stated to me that they commenced working on Friday morning, the 27th of May last, at six, A.M, and that, with the exception of meal hours and one hour at mIdnIght extra, they did not cease working till four o'clock on Saturday evening, having been two days and a night thus engaged. Believing the case scarcely possible, I asked every boy the same question, and from each received the same answer. I then went into the house to look at the time-book, and in the presence of one of the Masters referred to the cruelty of the case, and stated that I should certainly punish It with all the severity In my power....  My Lord, by a clause In the factory act, it Is enacted that, “no more than one penalty can be obtalned from any one person for any one description of offence in any one day” Had I laid the information, therefore, on all the boys for the same offence, the penalty could have only been 20/. [About $100 in 2010] a sum which appeared to me inadequate to the gross nature of the offence committed, I therefore, my lord, varied the Information, so as to enable me to sue for 80/ [about $400 In 2010], being four full penalties, could I have obtained them, laying the first for working two boys more than twelve hours on the Frlday; the second for working a boy before five o'clock on the Saturday morning; the other for working two boys in the night time, between FrIday and Saturday; and the fourth for keeping a false time-book, as to the hours of working. These views, however my lord, were not responded to, I very much regret to say, by the magistrates before whom the case was heard. The parties were only fine 50/. [about $50 fo In 2010] on each Information, and wIth an aggregate of penalties of 102 [about $100 In 20101 escaped.  —Robert A. Baker, Superintendent of Factory Inspections, 1836 </em>

Question: The situation described in the first excerpt, what is the inspector's opinion of employer Taylor, Ibbotson, and co.? what phrases in the report support this

Answer:

The inspectors opinion of Taylor Ibboston and Co, is that they have engaged in criminal activities which are in violation fo the 1833 Factory Act. He is also is of the opinion that they ought to be punished to the full extend of the Law.

Explanation:

In the excerpt, he clearly states:

<em>I then went into the house to look at the time-book, and in the presence of one of the Masters referred to the cruelty of the case, and stated that I should certainly punish It with all the severity In my power....  </em>

<em />

Another phrase which supports his position states:

<em> I therefore, my lord, varied the Information, so as to enable me to sue for 80/ [about $400 In 2010], being four full penalties, ... </em>

<em />

Cheers!

Monica spent a lot of time preparing for her interview, but the hiring manager is not asking any of the questions she practiced.
Vinil7 [7]
A) Be flexible and adjust to different situations

This should be the answer as she needs to be flexible and adjust to different situations in situations that she does not expect. She prepared for the interview but the hiring manager is not asking any of the questions she practiced which means that she has to be more flexible and answer the rest of the questions in the interview as best as possible by adjusting to the situation.

olasank [31]

Answer:

Ramon’s basis in the stock he receives in his corporation is $84,000

Explanation:

The computation of Ramon’s basis in the stock received in his corporation would be $84,000 as this amount reflect the adjusted basis of the assets transferred to the corporation.

The management of Ballard MicroBrew is considering the purchase of an automated bottling machine for $120,000. The machine would
almond37 [142]

Answer:

7.5%

Explanation:

Cost savings :

= Equipment cost - New machine cost

= 30,000 - 12,000

= 18,000

Depreciation per year :

= Cost of automated bottling machine ÷ Useful years

= 120,000 ÷ 10

= 12,000

Simple rate of return:

= (Cost savings - Depreciation of new equipment) ÷ (cost - salvage of old)  

= (18,000 - 12,000) ÷ (120,000 - 40,000)

= 6,000 ÷ 80,000

= 0.075

= 7.5%
