If the budget of a valley glacier were balanced for an extended time span, what feature would you expect to find at the terminus

of the glacier? Is it composed of till or stratified drift? Now assume that the glacier’s budget changes so that wastage exceeds accumulation. How would the terminus of the glacier change? Describe the deposit you would expect to form under these conditions.

Answer:

Explanation:

The budget of a boundary is determined by snowline. The boundary between a snow patched surface and a snow free surface is known as the snow line.

The snow falling is been divided by the snowline into two categories:Zone of accumulation and zone of wastage.

Where the snow accumulation, ice formation occur is known as zone of accumulation. The glacier thickens more upon the addition of snow,and it moves down the whole mass of snow.

Zone of wastage occurs when glaciers melt, glaciers breakdown to cross the  snowline.

A balance between the ice accumulated in the zone of accumulation and the zone of wastage is known as glacier budget. A balance in the glacier budget leads to an extension in the glacier margin to the zone of accumulation and the terminus of a glacier becomes stationary.

In a case where the glacier budget has more wastage than accumulation, the ice-font retreats. When there is an increase in the trend of warming, there will also be an increase in the zone of wastage. The decrease in snow fall decreases the zone of accumulation, thus causing the ice-font to retreat.

The extent zone of wastage decreases upon the termination of retreat in the glacier. Thus a new balance will be achieved in time between the wastage and accumulation, and the ice-font becomes stationary.

The ice present in the glacier keeps moving forward, regardless of whether the ice front is stationary, or moving either forward or backward.

In the diminishing glacier base, the ice keeps flowing forward, and not at a greater speed to attain wastage.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The total cost is $1,796,600

Explanation:

Fixed costs are costs that do not change with the change in the volume of good or service sols, but under certain circumstances, when the fixed cost is a direct cost, it can vary on a per unit basis.

Variable costs are costs that change with the change of the volume of goods or service.

Total number of units = 138,200

variable cost per unit = $8

Total variable cost = 8 × 138,200 = 1,105,600

Fixed cost per unit = $5

Total fixed cost = 5 × 138,200 = 691,000

Total cost = 1,105,600 + 691,000 = $1,796,600

A research design is a blue print that a company prepares for conducting  marketing research .

A firm collects quantitative data by conducting surveys and asking the customers or consumers to fill the forms (questionnaires).These surveys and questionnaires helps the company in making product related decision in various markets.(i.e how to customize the product as per the taste and the preferences of the consumers)

<u>The obstacle to defining the research problem was that the company failed  in collecting quantitative data /Selection of inappropriate respondent resulted in wrong output.Hence the company Refrez Inc failed to acknowledge the fact that people in the United States eat cereal with cold milk, whereas the people of China eat cereal with hot milk.</u>

As a result, Refrez Inc witnessed a decline in sales of its product in Chinese market .

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

1.

Dec 31    Rent expense                   $3450 Dr

                  Prepaid Rent                       $3450 Cr

2.

Oct 1     Prepaid Rent                        $13800 Dr

                  Cash                                       $13800 Cr

3.

Year end balances at 31 December:

Rent Expense = $3450

Prepaid Rent = $10350

Explanation:

Assumption: The year end for the business in on 31 December.

1.

The rent is paid in advance thus it is an asset. On 31 December the adjusting entry will be made under the accrual principle to match the current period's rent expense and record it in the period to which it belongs to. Thus we will credit the rent expense for 3 months i.e. October, November and December. We will credit the asset account that is Prepaid Rent.

2.

The prepayment of rent is creating an asset account in the title of prepaid rent. The entry would be to record the asset prepaid rent by the full amount of the rent prepaid and credit the other asset account through which the payment is being made.

3.

The adjusted year end balance for rent expense will be the rent expense paid for this period that is $1150 * 3 = 3450

The balance in the prepaid rent account after adjusting the rent expense will be,

Prepaid rent = 13800 - 3450 = $10350
