Answer

Retained earnings will be overstated by $38.40 million

Explanation:

The overstatement of retained earnings by this amount arises from the fact that if the depreciation of $64 million had been charged, the charge will have been tax deductible at 40% thus the amount overstated if (1-40%) x $64m =$38.4m.

Crote's retained earnings as of December 31, 2018, would be overstated by \$38.40 \text{ million}

<u>Explanation: </u>

Overstated = The amount is more than it ought to be = Very high

Accumulated depreciation =  \$64 \text{ million}

Tax rate = 40\%

In round 2 decimal places = 0.40

Right now, revenue is underestimated because cash was removed due to error of the depreciation costs

Round million on December 31, 2018 as 2 decimal places = \rightarrow \frac{64}{2} = 38

In decimals = \$38.40 \text{ million}

If your initial inventory has been overstated, you overestimate the cost of sold items, and underestimate net profit and net earnings. When the inventory ends in excess, the costs of the goods are understated and the gross profit and net profit is excessively increased.

ankoles [38]

Answer:

The answer is False.                                        

Explanation:

The qualities of effective communication are:

  1. <em>Completeness.</em> Effective communications are complete, i.e. the receiver gets all the information he needs to process the message and take action. If the information is complete there is no need to see HR for any questions.
  2. <em>Conciseness:</em> The communication was fairly concise. Conciseness is about keeping your message to a point.
  3. <em>Consideration:</em> Effective communication takes into account the receiver’s background and points of view. There was no compliments at the beginning of the message. Second, the message assumed on point 2 that people will know what to do with the Tab for Requests.
  4. <em>Concreteness: </em> Concreteness mitigates the risk of misunderstanding, fosters trust and encourages constructive criticism.
  5. <em>Courtesy: </em>The tone of the email lacked courtesy.
  6. Clearness: Clear communications build on exact terminology and concrete words, to reduce ambiguities and confusion in the communication process.
  7. <em>Correctness: </em>Correct grammar and syntax vouch for increased effectiveness and credibility of your message. Formal errors might affect the clarity of your message, trigger ambiguity and raise doubts. The email opens up with an address to Dear Mr. Trujillo when it is supposed to go to all staff.

Cheers!

WP Corporation produces products X, Y, and Z from a single raw material input in a joint production process. Budgeted data for t
Savatey [412]

Answer:

WP Corporation

Which of the products should be processed beyond the split-off point? Product X Product Y Product Z

B) yes no yes

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Budgeted data for the next month:

products                                                           X             Y              Z

Units produced                                              2,400      2,900       3,900

Per unit sales value at split-off                   $ 21.00   $ 24.00   $ 24.00

Added processing costs per unit                $ 3.00     $ 5.00     $ 5.00

Per unit sales value if processed further $ 25.00  $ 25.00    $ 30.00

Added profit after further processing        $ 1.00    ($4.00)      $ 1.00

Further processing of the products X, Y, and Z will yield further or added profit of $1.00 from products X and Z, but a loss of $4 from product Y.  Therefore, product Y should not be processed further, unless its cost structure is such that there is a more than $4 profit to be generated and its further processing is necessary for the other two to be sold, that is if the three products must be sold jointly.  In such a case, management could take further analysis to reduce the cost for consumers.

Keith enjoys cutting hair and he just graduated from a cosmetology program. He has opened up his own shop, but it has not grown
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Franchises.

Explanation:

A franchise is formed when a third party is given the right to market products using the brand name of a parent company. There is usually an agreement between the parent company and the third party on profit sharing from the franchise.

In this scenario Keith wants to try a brand recognition of a national chain, but he wants to stay in his local area and be the owner of the shop.

The best option is to form a franchise where he can use the national brand to grow his business locally.
