Answer:

The correct option is A. Using numbered or bulleted lists.

Explanation:

EXPLANATION

A. Using numbered or bulleted lists

Use numbered lists when you're explaining instructions that need to be performed in sequence. In situations where numbers are not essential use bullets, especially in business related documents

Bulleted lists are used to make items stand out from the text without implying order of importance. They may include punctuation marks like commas and semicolons

This is the correct answer, use of numbered list. We were told in the question to follow a particular order to fill out an expense report. You begin by writing your name and end by obtaining the supervisor’s signature

B. Using graphic techniques

Graphics are visual elements that can be used to point readers and viewers to a particular information. Graphic techniques are visually engaging in order to attract and inform a large audience. Diagrams and graphs can help learners comprehend abstract concepts using visual language to depict meaning. For instance, in diagrams the connecting lines between elements help learners understand relationships. Bar graphs make it easy to compare data; line graphs help learners understand trends

This option is wrong. The expense report is not a new concept

C. Developing parallelism for balance

Parallelism in literature is the repetition of a word or phrase within a sentence or group of sentences. It is used to help organize ideas, but also to make the ideas memorable.

This option is also wrong

Answer:

The company’s return on common stockholders’ equity for the present year is 7.9%

Explanation:

The return on common stockholders’ equity of the company for the present year is computed as:

= Net Income - (Shares x 6% x Rate of shares)

where

Net Income is $171,000

Shares is 10,000

Rate is $100

Putting the values in the above:

=$171,000 - (10,000 x .06 x $100)

= $171,000 - $60,000

= $111,000

Return on common stockholders’ equity = [ $111,000 / Common stockholders’ equity on January 1 + Common stockholders’ equity on December 31 / 2 )]

= ([$111,000($1,200,000+$1,600,000 /2 )]

= $111,000 / ($28,00,000 / 2)

= $111,000 / $14,00,000

= 0.079 or 7.9%

Net pay is calculated by subtracting deductions from Net Pay.

In this case:

Gross Pay is 40 hours X $9/hr (regular pay) PLUS 3 hours X (13.50 -- 1.5 times the normal pay) for overtime

Once you have Gross Pay, you multiply that by the percentages given for the deductions and subtract that total from Gross Pay.

One note, in this case, federal taxes are not withheld from the amount given to 401(k). So to figure the taxes you would:

(Gross Pay - 401(K) contribution) X 10%

Gross Pay - deductions = net pay

You purchase another company for $50m. The company you purchase has assets with a fair value of $75m and liabilities with a fair

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

b. $5m

Explanation:

If we purchase another company for $50m and the company you purchase has assets with a fair value of $75m and liabilities with a fair value of $30m. The amount of goodwill we should record in this transaction is: $5m

Goodwill upon acquisition of companies is derived by subtracting the fair value of NET ASSETS from the TOTAL CONSIDERATION (i.e the price paid to acquire the company)

In the scenario, the value of Net Assets is the value of the fairvalue of the assets less the fair value of the liabilities which is $75 - $30 = $45

While the Total Consideration = $50

Therefore Goodwill = $50m - $45m = $5m
