Which of these job descriptions is least likely to fall under an events manager?

Which of the following statements are true regarding externalities? (Check all that apply.) A. Deadweight loss can be either

ella [17]

Answer:

d

Explanation:

A good has positive externality if the benefits to third parties not involved in production is greater than the cost. an example of an activity that generates positive externality is research and development. Due to the high cost of R & D, they are usually under-produced. Government can encourage the production of activities that generate positive externality by granting subsidies.

A good has negative externality if the costs to third parties not involved in production is greater than the benefits. an example of an activity that generates negative externality is pollution. Pollution can be generated at little or no cost, so they are usually overproduced. Government can discourage the production of activities that generate negative externality by taxation. Taxation increases the cost of production and therefore discourages overproduction. Tax levied on externality is known as Pigouvian tax.

Government can regulate the amount of externality produced by placing an upper limit on the amount of negative externality permissible

Coase theorem has been proposed as a solution to externality. According to this theory, when there are conflicting property rights, bargaining between parties involved can lead to an efficient outcome only if the bargaining cost is low

Another solution to negative externality is through the activities of charities. Charities can raise donations to limit or regulate the activities of firms that constitutes a negative externality.

Bramble Company uses the percentage of receivables method for recording bad debt expense. The accounts receivable balance is $59

shusha [124]

Answer and Explanation

Given:

Accounts receivable balance = $598,000

Percentage of receivables that are uncollectible = 5% or 0.05

Uncollectible receivables = 0.05 × 598,000 = $29,900

Adjusting journal entry to record bad debt expense is:

Particulars Debit Credit

Bad debts expense XXXXX

Allowance for doubtful debts XXXXX

(Being bad debts incurred)

Noe, Allowance for doubtful debts has a credit balance of $4,800.

Bad debt incurred = 29,900 - 4,800 = $25,100

So adjusting entry :

Particulars Debit Credit

Bad debts expense $25,100

Allowance for doubtful debts $25,100

(Being bad debts incurred)

If you put up $21,000 today in exchange for a 8.25 percent, 14-year annuity, what will the annual cash flow be

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

$2,584.34

Explanation:

we can use the present value of an ordinary formula to calculate this:

present value = annual payment x annuity factor

present value = $21,000
PV annuity factor, 8.25%, 14 periods = 8.12586

annual payment = present value / annuity factor = $21,000 / 8.12586 = $2,584.34

When the interest rates are not whole number, e.g. 4%, instead of trying to use a present value annuity table, you should look online for annuity calculators that will calculate the annuity factors for you.

Feemster Corporation manufactures and sells a single product. The company uses units as the measure of activity in its budgets a

damaskus [11]

Answer:

$288 (F)

Explanation:

In order to calculate activity variance we subtract actual results from the flexible budget. Moreover, the flexible budget is determined by taken into account both fixed and variable expense of the activity. This is shown below:

Flexible Budget of Selling and Administrative Expense = 25,900 + (2.1 x 5,980) = $38,458

Variance = 38,170 - 38,458 = $288 (F)

Because the actual expense is less than the flexible budget, the variance is favorable (F).

Note: Variable flexible budget is calculated by multiplying the variable rate with the actual units produced.
