Answer:

Explanation:

A company's continuing operations are events that make up or are involves in the regular business activity of a company. As such, for a company whose primary business is the sales of, for example, groceries, the sale of an equipment is not a part of the Company's continuing operations.

For Bridge Company, its income from continuing operations before income tax is computed as follows.

Sales revenue, $5,000,000

Less, Cost of goods sold, $3,000,000

Less Administrative expenses, $1,000,000

Therefore, income from continuing operations = $1,000,000.

Gain on sale of equipment, loss on discontinued operations, and an adjustment for previous depreciation expenses are not continuing operations' items.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Note, the term diminishing marginal utility refers to an economic principle that states that the more unit of a particular commodity or service we consume, the more the satisfaction (utility) derived out of the consumption reduces or diminishes.

Another instance could occur after exercising, I'm given 3 bottles of coke, after taking my first bottle, the amount of utility I derive would reduce until I get to the third bottle, at this point I've reached my peak.

The law of diminishing marginal utility failed for someone I know who had used the same type of toothpaste and brushed her teeth at least once a day for a period of over 10 years.

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer

Hello,

Well, a diverse society is stable and alive with positive dynamics, easy to adapt to changes and always geared towards a positive evolutionary.

As an individual, a diverse society offers greater opportunity for personal and professional growth.

In the society, diverse cultural views can inspire creativity and innovation. A diverse society has a pool of diverse skills base which allows an organization to produce broader and more adaptable range of goods and services.

A challenge in this is that integration across multicultural groups can be difficult due to negative cultural stereotypes. Some countries require navigating visa and application of employment laws that could be challenging requirements.

Diversity quotas in colleges can be outlawed but still allow colleges to consider race in admitting students.

Wish you luck!
