Answer:

The corret answer is b. decrease assets and decrease liabilities.

Explanation:

First entry

Earnings Accrued (- Net Equity)

to various creditors (+ Liabilities)

Since the minutes of the assembly must indicate that they are taken from the profits of previous years, the accumulated profits are reduced.

Second entry

Miscellaneous creditors (- Liabilities)

to Banks (- Active)

The first entry represents transfer from one liability to another liability. Although we think that capital accounts are not liabilities, it is not true, given that the value of debt to shareholders of the value of your company, so we can group everything in the same bag.

When decreeing dividends, what is done is to cover a small part of that company value. That is, when dividends are decreed, they become part of a formalized liability.

The second entry is the cancellation of the liability, through one of the ways to extinguish the obligations: payment.

These are OK

1. ¿Cuántos estudiantes hablan español?

Veinte estudiantes hablan español.

2. ¿A qué hora es la clase de sociología?

La clase es a las cinco

4. ¿Qué cursos tomas?

Estoy tomando historía, español, y arte

Now these need correction:

3. ¿Trabajas ustedes mañana? <em>This is common, "ustedes" is plural "you" , singular "you" is "tu", and when the verb is conjugated there is no need of the personal pronoun, a correct version of this question would be  "¿Trabajas mañana?</em>

No, no trabajas mañana. Trabaja sábado. <em>"trabajas" is conjugated in second person, you should answer in first person "No, no trabajo mañana, trabajo el sabado"</em>

5. ¿Estudias?  <em>I dont know what  you mean by this, in english is: "study?" if you are asking "are you studying for you examns?" or something like that it would be "¿estas estudiando?"</em>

¿Estudias...?? <em>And the answer would be "Si,estoy estudiando mucho" - "Yes, I'm studying hard"</em>

<em>7. ¿</em>Hay? <em>The same as before this means "is there...?"  you might ask "is there a coffee shop in campus?" and in spanish "hay cafeterias en el campus?"</em>

¿Hay....???? <em>And the answer here is "yes, there are" => "si, hay"</em>

<em>8. ¿</em>Dónde está? <em>Where is...? is this question,  you might ask "where is the coffee shop?", "donde está la cafeteria?"</em>

¿Donde esta???? "<em>La cafeteria esta en la esquina" => "The coffee shop is the corner"</em>

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation.

Explanation:

1. Honesty.

State the purpose of your call to the secretary and sell your product. For instance, " Hello, my name is Mr. Petal and I represent a fast rising Paper and Metal Container company. After researching about your company, I felt it most expedient to get in touch with Mr. Firestone as I believe this is business he will be interested in. We offer perks that are unmatched in the industry".

2. Persistence.

You can be persistent on the phone if you detect deceit in the secretary's tone.

For instance,

" Having been in the chemical industry myself, I know such an opportunity does not come often and I really do guarantee that we give the best benefits in the industry. If you can, just let me talk to Mr. Firestone, I promise that neither of you will regret it".

If it still doesn't work, ask for a convenient time you can call back.
