Answer:
The correct answer is Inductive reasoning.
Explanation:
Inductive reasoning is a form of reasoning in which the truth of the premises supports the conclusion, but does not guarantee it. A classic example of inductive reasoning is:
- All the crows observed so far have been black
- Therefore, all crows are black
In principle, it could be that the next crow observed is not black. In contrast to deductive reasoning, inductive reasoning has the advantage of being expansive, that is, the conclusion contains more information than is contained in the premises. Given its expansive nature, inductive reasoning is very useful and frequent in science and in everyday life. However, given its fallible nature, its justification is problematic. When are we justified in making an inductive inference, and concluding, for example, that all crows are black from a limited sample of them? What distinguishes a good inductive argument from a bad one? These and other related problems give rise to the problem of induction, whose validity and importance has continued for centuries.

Answer:
the minimum price it should charge is $40 per unit.
Explanation:
Minimum Transfer Price = Variable Costs - Internal Savings + Opportunity Cost
<em>Note : Division A has capacity available to meet B's requirements therefore there is no opportunity cost</em>.

Minimum Transfer Price = $45 - $5
= $40
Answer:
The amount Swifty debited to the appropriate account in 2017 to write off actual bad debts: $25,800
Explanation:
Allowance for uncollectible accounts at the end of 2017 = Allowance for uncollectible accounts at the end of 2016 + Bad debt expense of 2017 - The amount of write off actual bad debts.
The amount of write off actual bad debts = Allowance for uncollectible accounts at the end of 2016 + Bad debt expense of 2017 - Allowance for uncollectible accounts at the end of 2017 = $180,500 + $32,800 - $187,500 = $25,800
