Explanation:

In the given question, the options of the given question have not been provided but based on previous knowledge about the question, the question can be answered.

The cow during the 1900's produced about 424 gallons of milk every year but the filed of eugenics opened the way for higher production of milk. The aim was to produce more milk at cheaper rate therefore efforts were made to perform breeding experiments with desired traits.

In the present condition, the production of milk has increased from 424 gallons to 2000 gallons due to breeding, higher literacy rate of the Americans and the stable financial system of the states.

Thus, breeding, literacy rate and the stable financial system are the possible ways.

Zhang Industries budgets production of 400 units in June and 410 units in July. Each finished unit requires 5 pounds of raw mate
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is $12,060.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Production in June = 400 units

Production in July = 410 units

Each unit required = 5 pounds

Cost per pound = $6

So, June required raw material = 400 units × 5 pounds = 2000 pounds

For July required raw material = 410 units × 5 pounds × 20% = 410 pounds

So, required total raw material for June = 2000 pounds + 410 pounds - 400 pounds ( already in inventory)

= 2010 pounds

So, the total cost required for raw material in June = 2010 pounds × $6

= $12,060

Hence, the budgeted cost of purchases for raw material K for June is $12,060.

Exercise 11-1 Compute the Return on Investment (ROI) [LO11-1] Alyeska Services Company, a division of a major oil company, provi
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1. Margin = 0.32 or 32%

2. Turnover = $19,000,000  or Operating Asset Turnover = 0.52 or 52%

3. Return on Investment = 0.17 or 17%

Explanation:

Firstly, list out the parameters we were given:

Sales = $19,000,000, Net Operating Income = $6,100,000,

Average Operating Assets = $36,500,000

1. Operating Margin = Net Operating Income / Sales

Operating Margin = 6,100,000 ÷ 19,000,000 = 0.32

Operating Margin = <u>0.32</u> (to 2 decimal places)

Operating Margin = <u>32%</u>

<u />

2. Turnover refers to sales or revenue made during a particular period. In which case turnover is <u>$19,000,000</u>

However, if the turnover referred to is the Operating Asset Turnover, that is calculated below:

Operating Asset Turnover = Sales / Average Operating Assets

Operating Asset Turnover = 19,000,000 ÷ 36,500,000

Operating Asset Turnover = <u>0.52</u> (to 2 decimal places)

Operating Asset Turnover = <u>52%</u>

<u />

3. Return on Investment (ROI) = Net Operating Income / Average Operating Assets

Return on Investment (ROI) = 6,100,000 ÷ 36,500,000

Return on Investment (ROI) = <u>0.17</u> (to 2 decimal places)

Return on Investment (ROI) = <u>17%</u>

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

$88,450 should be included in the current assets section of Janson’s December 31, 2021, balance sheet

Explanation:

Current Assets: The current assets are those assets which are converted into cash within one year.

Examples - Accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid insurance, cash, etc.

The computation of the total current assets is shown below:

= Accounts receivable + Inventory + Prepaid insurance + Short term investment

= $14,000 + $40,000 + $3,650 + $30,800

= $88,450

The amount of prepaid insurance which is given in the question is for two years. We have to compute for one year so we divide the total amount by number of years

= $7,300 ÷ 2 years

= $3,650

Read and compare the following two scenarios. Explain why the court should or should not pierce the corporate veil in each scena
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Piercing the Corporate Veil:

1. Smith Services, Inc. and Laker Express:  With the given facts, Smith Services is still in operation by the alter ego, since Smith - the sole owner, has continued to provide trucking services.  Smith should be able to pay for the debts it owed Laker Express.  The question is: why was Smith Services, Inc. dissolved in the first place when the sole owner could continue privately to do the same business?  Is there element of fraud involved, or was it trying to avoid its obligations?  It seems that the dissolution was an effort to avoid liabilities and not because of impaired ability to operate the business because its own debtors did not pay for services on several contracts.  Another question is: during the dissolution or liquidation of Smith Services, Inc. were other creditors not settled and where was Laker Express then?

However, it appears that the dissolution was just to avoid liability, especially the $35,000 debt owed to Laker Express for fuel purchases.

Therefore, in this situation where it seems that the corporate form is ignored, commingling of assets exists, and that Smith Services, Inc. is an instrumentality for Tony Smith, I will advise that the corporate veil be lifted.  Tony Smith should be held liable for the business debts of Smith Services, Inc. because he has continued to use the assets of Smith Services, Inc. to run a sole proprietorship in the same line of business.  However, recourse must be had to the State laws on piercing the corporate veil.

2. Country Contractors, Inc. & Westside Storage of Indianapolis:

Since Country Contractors, Inc and the Westside Storage are based in Indiana, the decision to pierce the corporate veil should be based on the eight factors that are applicable for piercing the veil:  They include: undercapitalization;  absence of corporate records;  fraudulent representation by corporation shareholders or directors;  use of the corporation to promote fraud, injustice or illegal activities;  payment by the corporation of individual obligations;  commingling of assets and affairs;  failure to observe required corporate formalities; or  other shareholder acts or conduct ignoring, controlling, or manipulating the corporate form.

But, the facts in this case do not support that any of the factors had been breached.

So, I do not support that Songers are personally liable for Country's failure to complete its contract.

Explanation:

The corporate veil is an important instrument for protecting shareholders of corporations from being held liable for the liabilities of the corporation in their individual and personal capacities.  Corporate veil ensures that the entity is treated as a separate entity from its shareholders.  It is a protection offered by law to encourage private enterprise and ensure that the debts of corporate bodies are not tagged to the individual shareholders.  It is this veil that ensures the limited liability concept, whereby, the shareholders could only lose their capital contributions in case of business failure or dissolution.

Piercing the corporate veil is a court decision to lift the veil that separates the shareholders of corporation from their shareholders.  There are special factors that must be met for courts to pierce the corporate veil and they do it reluctantly.
