Answer:

(a)<u> Backward vertical integration</u> (b) <u>Forward vertical integration</u> (c) <u>Backward vertical integration</u>

Explanation:

(a) An academic medical center is an example of backward vertical integration. The specialist and faculties from the university will provide treatment to the patients. Such medical centers have tertiary service with several intermediaries.

(b) Here, there is no intermediary between patients and general surgery group. The general surgery group treat patients directly. So here there is a forward vertical integration system.

(c) A manufacturer of durable medical equipment will supply to retailers who in turn supply these to hospitals where the patients will receive service from these equipment. So, it is an example of backward vertical integration.

meriva

Answer:

D) It is more economical for Baurisians to import meat than grain.

Explanation:

The argument states that meat consumption in Baurisia is steadily increasing while domestic production is not.

There are two alternatives:

  1. import more grains to feed more animals and produce more meat (the argument favors this option),
  2. or simply import more meat.

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Correct option is D.

Unearned Rent Revenue Dr. $16,000

Rent Revenue  $16,000

Explanation:

Provided that rent is received for a period of 1 year that is 12 months on May 1, 2010 amounting $24,000

Thus rent per month = $24,000/12 = $2,000 per month

Provided financial year = Calendar year

thus for the year 2010 rent revenue = 1 May to 31 December = $2,000 \times 8 = $16,000

Since revenue = $16,000 for the year and initially was recorded as unearned rent thus for the year $16,000 should be transferred to rent revenue.

For this entry shall be:

Unearned Rent Revenue Dr.           $16,000

         To Rent Revenue                   $16,000

Correct option is D.
