The answer is: by cheap foreign labor

Currently, most of the corporations that operates in america manufacture their products in countries such as China, india, indonesia, phillipines, or Eastern European countries.

People who live in those countries typically have lower standard of living. Because of this, they can agree in receiving salary that are considerably lower compared to the minimum wage in united states.

unrelized loss(OCI) 7,100 debit

trading securities earnhart corp 3,700 credit

trading securities- wallace 3,400 credit

-- 2018 year-end adjustment--

Explanation:

gordon 77,600 - 73,200 = (4,100)

wallace 172,900 - 167,700 = 5,200

martin 63,500 - 65,100 = (1,600)

Total adjustment (500)

We will declare as other comprehensive incoem the unrealized loss of 500 dollar for the period

At sale date we compare the proceeds and the cost to check for the earning or losses:

1,500 shares x $45 each less 1,200 fees = 66,300

gordon shares book value (73,200)

loss on investment 6,900

Earnhart corp:

700 shares x $75 each plus 1,300 fees: 53,800

year-end adjusting 2018

earnhart 50,100 - 53,800 = (3,700)

wallace 61,700 - 65,100 = (3,400)

martin 167,700 - 167,700 = 0

unrealized loss (7,1 00)

Which of the following solutions have been proposed to solve the too-big-to-fail problem?

Tresset [83]

Answer:

D) All of the above have been proposed

Explanation:

The problem with the too big to fail financial policy is that financial institutions that are considered too big started to assume greater investment risks since they were treated differently than other not too big banks.

For example, if the FDIC decides that a too big to fail bank is about to fail, they will use the purchase and assumption method to ensure that the bank's depositors don't suffer losses, but the government assumes the losses and the government is paid by all of us.

The Dodd-Frank Act makes it harder for the Federal Reserve to bail out financial institutions, but that is simply not enough. Big banks have played enough with the taxpayers' money and should be held responsible for their actions. They at like spoiled children that go around breaking things because their parents will pay for them.

There are two machines for sale that you are considering purchasing for your sawmill to produce hardwood flooring. You want to f

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

1. The Cpk of machine 1 would be 0.952

2. The Cpk of machine 2 would be 1.111

3. I would buy machine 2, because the Cpk value is more than 1.

4. The Cpk would be 2.222

Explanation:

1. In order to calculate the Cpk of machine 1 we would have to use to following formula:

Process capability index: Cpk= Min [(mean-L spec)/3sd; (U spec-mean)/3sd]

According to given data:

In machine 1, mean= 48mm

L spec= 46

U spec= 50

Standard deviation sd= 0.7

Therefore, Cpk of machine 1= [0.952;0.952]= 0.952

1. In order to calculate the Cpk of machine 2 we would have to use to following formula:

Process capability index: Cpk= Min [(mean-L spec)/3sd; (U spec-mean)/3sd]

According to given data:

In machine 2, mean= 47

L spec= 46

U spec= 50

Standard deviation sd= 0.3

Therefore, Cpk of machine 2= [1.111;3.333]= 1.111

3. If my goal is to be capable, I would buy machine 2, because the Cpk value is more than 1.

4. If you combine the best of both machines to calculate the cpk we to make the following calculation:

Combination specification, mean= 48 and L spec= 46 and U spec= 50, Standard deviation sd= 0.3

Therefore, Cpk= [2.222;2.222]= 2.222
