Answer:

b. Special damages

Explanation:

Damages are remedies paid to claimants or plaintiffs as compensation for loss or injury caused by the defendant.

Special damages compensate the claimant for quantifiable monetary losses which can be either direct losses or consequential damages. For example the cost of replacement of damaged property is categorized as a direct loss and lost earnings relates to consequential damages.

The $100,000 worth of porcelain that was damaged is a direct loss which may be recovered by CraftCo under special damages.

An outflow

Explanation:

The cash flow statement categories the company's transactions in a financial period into 3 groups; these are operating, investing and financing.

The net profit/loss, depreciation, changes in current assets (other than cash) and liabilities are considered as operating activities including income taxes.  

In cash flow statements, an increase in assets(other than cash) is treated as a cash outflow while a decrease is considered as an inflow of cash.

Hence if accounts receivables balance increases from $45,000 i 2018 to $48,000 in 2019, the change of $3,000 will be shown as an outflow.

There are monetary policy lags

<h3>What is monetary policy lags ?</h3>

The presence of temporal delays is one of the drawbacks of countercyclical monetary policy. The monetary authority must have time to recognise the need for action, take that action, and observe how that action affects economic activity. The time relationship between the resultant monetary series and the subsequent series of impacts of monetary operations is how Friedman defines "lag." He claims that economic circumstances are only affected by monetary measures after a "long and varied lag." Friedman makes a distinction between three fundamental lags: the administrative lag, the operation lag, and the recognition lag.

Gemiola [76]

False

Explanation:

The provision of the Uniform Commercial Code as amended is that any missing terms such as price, quantity,location and expected time of delivery as well as payment terms  can be added to the contract later on with consent of all parties involved or provided in compliance with other commercial codes.

In other words,the fact that payment should be made within seven working days when payment terms are missing is alien to Uniform Commercial Code.

The answer, therefore is false.
