Please help! :)
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Arbitration and mediation are two alternative ways of resolving legal conflicts, that is, they are alternatives to judicial litigation.

Thus, arbitration involves the selection of an impartial third party (similar to a judge), who will decide through an award who of the parties is right, basing his decision on law, morals, ethics or common sense.

For its part, mediation involves a negotiation between the parties, assisted by a third party, the mediator, who will seek to reach an agreement.

Both alternatives imply that a lawsuit is not initiated, which in itself entails a notable economic and time saving for the parties in conflict.

Match the following:
asambeis [7]

Explanation:

1. If butter complements margarine for instance, and there occurs a sudden increase in the price of butter leading to lower demand, this would affect the demand for margarine negatively leading to a fall in the demand for margarine.

2. If this goods are substitutes the demand for butter will increase when the price of margarine rises.

This is because it is only natural for people to switch to the next best alternative (substitute) that fills the same purpose or needs.

3. Remember Ice cream and ice cream cones complementary goods; meaning the demand for one increases the demand for the other and vice versa.

4. If the price of ice cream increases, demand would also decrease for ice cream as consumers are usually sensitive to price.

This decrease in the demand for ice cream would also affect ice cream cones since they complement each other, leading to a decrease in the demand for ice cream cones.

One of the most useful ways to break the glass ceiling in organizations is to _____. Select one: a. eliminate status-blind emplo
kobusy [5.1K]

(A) Eliminate status-blind employment practice.

What is a glass ceiling?

  • A glass ceiling is a metaphor used to represent an invisible barrier that prevents a given demographic from rising beyond a certain level in a hierarchy.
  • The metaphor was first coined by feminists in reference to barriers in the careers of high-achieving women.
  • In the United States, the term is sometimes extended to include barriers to minority women's and minority men's advancement.
  • Minority women in white-majority countries frequently face the greatest challenges in "breaking the glass ceiling," because they are at the convergence of two historically marginalized groups: women and people of color.
  • The phrase "bamboo ceiling" was coined by East Asian and East Asian American news outlets to describe the barriers that all East Asian Americans encounter in furthering their careers.

After reading all the questions option (A) is the most useful way to break the glass ceiling.

Therefore, the correct option is (A) Eliminate status-blind employment practice.

Berkshire Inc. uses a periodic inventory system. At the end of 2015, it missed counting some inventory items, resulting in an in
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Assets understated by $510,000, liabilities understated by $153,000 and shareholders' equity understated by $357,000.

Explanation:

An understatement of closing inventory will have the following effects,

First of all the inventory as an asset is understated by $510,000

Second, this inventory was subject to deduction from the Cost of goods sold as, Cost of goods sold = Opening Inventory + Purchases - Closing Inventory.

Since this amount was not subtracted from the CGS, the gross profit and ultimately the Net profits were understated by $510,000.

This will be added in the net profits.

With an increase in net profits, the tax payable amount also increases. This is calculated as 510,000 * 0.30 = $153,000

So total change in profits is = 510,000 - 153,000 = $357,000

While $153,000 is still payable and is recorded as a tax payable liability.

Thus,

Assets understated by $510,000

Liabilities Understated by $153,000 (tax payable)

Share holders equity understated by $357,000 (part of retained profits)

Hope that helps.
