ANSWERS: There was a format called Company Town where the company would virtually own and control the entire town including daily need item stores. Workers were lured with attractive wages and accommodation. But, the wages were paid in 'Scrips' which were company printed currency meant to be spent in the stores owned by the company owned and controlled stores inside the company town. This led to the employees getting dependent on employers and their personal freedom and space getting interfered by employers. This relation led to the term 'Wage Slavery'. This practice was continued in mining town till 1960s whereas the concept of company town ended in the 1920s.

The income statement for the month of June of Camera Obscura Enterprises contains the following information: Sales Revenues $7,0
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

a debit balance of $1,300

Explanation:

Generally in the income statement, a net profit is the excess of income over expenses during a given period and this will give a credit balance in the income statement, but this will be a debit balance in Income Summary to close the account.

On the other hand, a net loss is the excess of expenses over income during a given period and this will give a debit balance in the income statement, but this will be a credit balance in Income Summary to close the account.

Since Camera Obscura Enterprises made a net profit of $1,300 in the month of June, the balance in Income Summary will therefore be a debit balance of $1,300.

Mike's Fish Market is implementing a project that will initially increase accounts payable by $6,100, increase inventory by $2,8
Feliz [49]

Answer:

The net working capital is -$4600.

Explanation:

Use the below formula to calculate net working capital:

Net working capital = Total current assets – Total current liability  

Total current liability = $6100

Total current asset =  increase in inventory –decrease in account reciveable  

Total current asset = $2800 – 1300

= $1500

Now, Net working capital = Total current assets – Total current liability  

Net working capital = $1500 – $6100

= - $4600

Thus, net working capital is -$4600.

The American car battery industry boasts that its recycling rate now exceeds 95%, the highest rate for any commodity. However, w
AnnyKZ [126]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The question is incomplete. There are parts of the question missing. Indeed, there is no question posted, it is just a statement.

However, we can do research and comment on the following.

We are facing two scenarios here. Both, ethical dilemmas that need to be solved.

1) as an independent auto repair shop owner that tries to safely dispose of a few old batteries each week. (Your battery supplier is an auto parts supplier who refuses to take your old batteries.)

In this case, I would check the original agreement with the supplier to see if there is a clause on old batteries management. If not, I would ask it to help me solve this issue because I am his client and has to take care of me and the environment. Otherwise, I would have to contemplate the option of changing supplier.  

2) I am the manager of a large retailer responsible for the disposal of thousands of used batteries each day.

In this other case, I would follow the Environmental Department rules and regulations to comply with the correct procedures. This means to ask for support and orientation to get all the revisions to work properly. Because I know all the consequences of not recycling correctly or the damage done to humans and the environment. So although it could be more money, and would modernize my equipment to better manage the disposal of batteries. It would be an investment, not an expense.
