Answer:

A delegation.

Explanation:

Delegation is the process by which a person transfers the performance of certain duties to other parties. Delegation is usually done to increase efficiency.

For example if a supervisor has 3 urgent tasks to be performed, he can delegate 2 of them to other staff while focusing on 1 of the tasks. This will ensure deadlines are met and work is well done.

In the given instance Edmond delegates to Ferdie because of conflicting schedule. This will ensure the closing of the sale is done while Edmond meets other obligations.

What is Jared's accounting profit? Suppose Jared could have used his talents to run a similar kind of business instead. If he va
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  

<em>After working as a head chef for years, Jared gave up his $60,000 salary to open his own restaurant last year. He withdrew $50,000 of his own savings that had been earning 4% interest and borrowed another $100,000 from the bank at a rate of 5%. As the restaurant space he was leasing had no separate office, Jared converted his basement apartment into office space. He had previously rented the apartment to a student for $300/month. The following table summarizes his operations for the past year. </em>

<em>Total sales revenue    $590,000       </em>

<em>  Employee wages $120,000   </em>

<em>  Materials                 $350,000   </em>

<em>  Interest on loan $5,000   </em>

<em>  Utilities                 $10,000   </em>

<em>  Rent                 $25,000   </em>

<em>Total explicit costs              $510,000 </em>

<em>a, What is Jared's accounting profit? </em>

<em>b, Suppose Jared could have used his talents to run a similar kind of business instead. If he values his entrepreneurial skill at $10,000 annually, find Jared's total implicit costs. </em>

<em>c, What was Jared's economic profit last year?</em>

My answer:

a. , What is Jared's accounting profit?

As we know that accounting profit is the difference between total sales revenue and Total explicit cost, from the table we can find that:

$590,000  - $510,000  = $80,000 is the accounting profit

b. Jared's total implicit costs.

Implicit costs include his foregone wages ($60,000), the value of his entrepreneurial skill ($10,000), foregone rent on the apartment ($3,600 = 12 x $300) plus the foregone interest on his savings ($2,000 = .04 x $50,000). These total $75,600.

c. What was Jared's economic profit last year?

Explicit plus implicit, was $585,600 = $510,000 + $75,600. His economic profit is the difference between revenue and economic cost, or $4,400 (= $590,000 – $585,600).

Dovator [93]

Answer:

D) Debit income summary 187000, credit revenues 187000

Explanation:

When dividend is declared, following journal entry is passed

Retained Earnings                                    Dr.

    To Dividend Payable

(Being declared dividend recorded)

When dividends are actually paid, the journal entry is

Dividend Payable A/C                              Dr.

     To Cash A/C

(Being dividend paid recorded)

Income summary account is prepared as a temporary account while income statement represents permanent account.

Income summary shows net income balance i.e Revenue less expenses.

As per the given information in the question, debiting income summary account with total revenues of $187000 would be wrong.
