Answer:

$157,000

Explanation:

The calculation of estimated cash receipts from accounts receivable collections in May is shown below:-

Collections from sales of may = $200,000 × 20%

= $40,000  

Collections from sales of April = $150,000 × 70%

= $105,000

Collections from sales of prior period = $12,000    

Estimated Collections in May month = Collections from sales of may + Collections from sales of April + Collections from sales of prior period

= $40,000 + $105,000 + $12,000

= $157,000

So, for computing the estimated collection in may month we simply applied the above formula.

In a typical bacteria chromosome movement by the cells of the high-frequency recombination, there is the movement of a segment of the genome of the specific bacterial. It is also unlikely for the complete movement of the conjugate. Therefore, based on all the available options in the problem above, the false statement is the first option.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Appreciate more

Explanation:

Suppose an increase in the demand for dollars has caused an appreciation of the dollar. According to the purchasing power parity theorem, the value of the dollar in the future will appreciate more. This is because the shift in demand and supply will cause an increase in the value of the dollar. Purchasing power parity (PPP) is a theory which states that exchange rates between currencies are in equilibrium when their purchasing power is the same in each of the two countries.
