Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": Improperly packed by the party shipping them.

Explanation:

Carriers are liable for the loss of goods being transported by them under three scenarios: acts of God (<em>because they are unpredictable</em>), acts of the shipper (<em>negligence of the person providing with the goods being transported</em>), and acts of a public enemy (<em>a country engaging into the war</em>).

In that case, <em>the carrier is likely not to be found liable if the shipping items were incorrectly packaged the sending party</em>.

solmaris [256]

Answer:

$330,000

Explanation:

Change in WC = Opening receivables - Closing receivables

Change in WC = $84,000 - $74,000

Change in WC = $10,000

The decrease in working capital is $10,000

Cash from operating activities = Net income + Decrease in Working Capital

Cash from operating activities = $320,000 + $10,000

Cash from operating activities = $330,000

Thus, the cash from operating activities is $330,000

May                    2

June                   3

August                2

September         3

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

   A              B                C              D          E            F                   G

Month     Forecast     Actual      Error     |Error|     RSFE          MAD

                                                                              cumulative

                                                    C-D       |C-D|       of D          

April             244         344          100        100        100            100.00

May              318          468          150       150         250           125.00

June             393         493          100       100         350           116.67

July               343         293         -50        50          300           100.00

August          368         268        -100      100          200           100.00

September   443         568        125        125          325            104.17

the tracking signal for each  month will be;

Tracking Signal =  

Running Sum of Forecast Errors (RSFE) / Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD)

so substitute

Month of APRIL;

Tracking signal = 100 / 100.00  = 1

Month of MAY;

Tracking signal = 250 / 125.00  = 2

Month of JUNE;

Tracking signal = 350 / 116.67 = 2.9999 ≈ 3

Month of JULY;

Tracking signal = 300 / 100.00 = 3

Month of AUGUST;

Tracking signal = 200 / 100 = 2

Month of SEPTEMBER;  

Tracking signal = 325 / 104.17 = 3.11 ≈ 3

Therefore,

MONTH    TRACKING SIGNAL

April                    1

A credit entry:
blagie [28]

Answer: e. Decreases asset and expense accounts, and increases liability, common stock, and revenue accounts.

Explanation:

Let's evaluate each of the options as follows:

a. Is always a decrease in an account - This is false because a credit entry increases liability, common stock and revenue accounts.

b. Is recorded on the left side of a T-account - Although in modern day accounting, the use of T-account has been relegated to the background. However, if entries are to be recorded using the T-account, all debits are posted to the left side while all credits are recorded on the right side of the account.

c. Increases asset and expense accounts, and decreases liability, common stock, and revenue accounts - It does not increase asset and expense accounts, rather it reduces them. The opposite applies to liability, common stock, and revenue accounts.

d. Is always an increase in an account - This is false.

Therefore, option e is correct because a credit entry reduces asset and expense accounts, and increases liability, common stock and revenue accounts.

Harlamova29_29 [7]
In this type of situation, both Ramsay and the company will be investigated for the tax fraud case. Even if Ramsay was found not guilty, the company will still be investigated since the company is a separate entity and there is an alleged big amount hidden in company's assets. If the company is found guilty, it will still be liable for the case even if Ramsay was found not guilty. Most likely, the investigators will try to tie the case back to him anyway since he is one of the main representatives of the company.
