Last month, a processing facility (such as a check processing facility or a distribution center) transitioned from an unpaced as

sembly line to a machine-paced assembly line, so that now work is done to the product while it stays on the conveyor belt. Yesterday, the worker at the bottleneck station was replaced by another worker who works more slowly than the original worker (and nothing was done to compensate). Which of the following is most likely to result?
a. Inventory piles up before the new bottleneck worker.
b. Quality problems occur.
c. Cycle time increases.
d. The direction of the workflow changes
How does the cost of learning change as the division of labor increases (having more workers, doing more narrowly defined tasks)?

b. It tends to increase at first but eventually starts decreasing.
c. It tends to decrease with the growing degree of division of labor.
d. It is unchanged by the division of labor.

Answer: b. Quality problem occurs

• c. It tends to decrease with the growing degree of division of labor

Explanation:

From the scenario on the question, the most likely thing to result is for quality problems to occur. Quality simply has to do with the extent to which a particular product satisfies already specified requirements.

Based on the scenarios such as the worker at the bottleneck station being replaced by another worker who works more slowly than the original worker, the quality will be affected.

Division of labor is when task are being delegated in a workplace so that efficiency can be improved. When there is a rise in the division of labor, learning is affected as there'll be a decrease as division of labor increases. This is because everyone has his or her role to play rather than learning more about other departments or roles, the worker will be typically focused on one role.

the amount of federal income taxes withheld from an employee's gross pay is recorded as a(n) Opayroll expense Oliability O contr
crimeas [40]

Option c. A current liability is a correct answer. The amount of federal income taxes withheld from an employee's gross pay is recorded as a current liability

Under employment law, employers operate as intermediaries between employees and state and federal agencies. It is the obligation of employers to track and pay taxes, social security, and other payments from employee pay to government agencies.

The company must remit the amount withheld each quarter which means the amounts are owed in the current period. When taxes are paid, the FIT Payable account is debited to balance the transactions.

Option a) is incorrect as no asset is created by the withholding.

Option b) is incorrect as the taxes are not an expense paid by the company.

Option d) is incorrect as the payable operates as a normal liability account.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The equilibrium quantity falls and the effect on the equilibrium wage of radiologists is indeterminate.

Explanation:

Here are the options to this question :

What is likely to happen to the equilibrium wage and quantity of radiologists following these twoevents?

A) The equilibrium wage and the equilibrium quantity of radiologists fall.

B) The equilibrium quantity falls and the effect on the equilibrium wage of radiologists is indeterminate.

C) The equilibrium wage falls and the effect on equilibrium quantity of radiologists isindeterminate.D

) The equilibrium wage and the equilibrium quantity of radiologists rise

As a result of event A, there would be a decrease in the demand for radiologists. As a result, there  would be a leftward shift of the demand curve for radiologist. This would lead to a reduction in equilibrium price and quantity

As a result of event B, there would be a decrease in the supply radiologists. As a result, there  would be a leftward shift of the supply curve of radiologist. This would lead to a reduction in equilibrium quantity and a rise in equilibrium price.

Taking these two effects together, the equilibrium quantity falls and the effect on the equilibrium wage of radiologists is indeterminate.

-to record payment within--

interst expense      216 debit

  account payable         216 credit

--to record interest incurred--

Explanation:

As we use periodic system we calculate the inventory and COGS at the end of the period so we use purchase and returns accounts rather than adjusting inventories in every transactions.

In the second method we use itnerest expense when the discount is loss.

<u><em>interest incurred for the period:</em></u>

(12,000 - 1,200) x 2% = 216

The secodn purchase at the end of the monthcan be paid within discount period therefore, we do not recognize interest expense yet.
