Consumers affect which goods and services are produced because they are the primary purpose why businesses offer goods and services in the first place. The market is difficult to estimate because it is highly dependent on the whims of the consumers. So, if the trend suggests that a certain type of goods is not anymore socially famous, then consumers would stop patronizing them. In the end, businesses would have to find more ways to innovate so as to keep up with the consumers' interests.

Max Company uses 20,000 units of Part A in producing its products. A supplier offers to make Part A for $7. Max Company has rele

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Max company makes use of 20,000 units of part A to manufacture its product

A supplier offers to produce part A for $7

Max company has relevant costs to $8 per unit to produce part A

Therefore, the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier can be calculated as follows

Opportunity cost= 20,000 units of part A($8-$7)

= 20,000 units×$1

= 20,000×$1

= $20,000

Hence the opportunity cost of not buying part A from the supplier when there is excess capacity is $20,000

Explanation:

First, we solve for the proceeds from the bonds payable:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 26,100 (435,000 x 12% / 2)

time 8 ( 4 years x 2)

yield to maturity 0.04 ( 8% / 2)

$26100 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-8} }{0.04} = PV\\$

PV $175,724.6412

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 435,000.00

time 8.00

rate 0.04

$\frac{435000}{(1 + 0.04)^{8} } = PV$

PV 317,850.24

PV c $175,724.6412

PV m $317,850.2392

Total $493,574.8804

We now build the amortization schedule.

We take this value, we multiply by the interest rate and then, solve for amortization and ending carrying value.

<u>To record the redemption:</u>

accrued interest:

435,000 x 0.12 x 4/12 (months from June to oct) = 17,400

premium:

480,606.6 - 435,000 = 45,606.6

proportional of premium:

45,606 / 435,000 x 130,500 = 13.681,98

we now solve for the gain/loss on redemption:

130,500 + 13,681.98 + 17,400 = 161.581,9 value redeem

for cash 136,500

gain on redemption 25.081,98

bonds payable 130,500.00 debit

premium on bp 13,681.98 debit

interest expense 17,400.00 debit

gain on redemption 25,081.98 credit

cash 136,500.00 credit

Now, we solve for Dec 31st, 2021 entry.

bonds payable: 435,000 - 130,500 = 304,500

premium: 45,606 - 13,681.98 = 31.924,02

interest expense:

(304,500 + 31,924.02) x 0.04 = 13,456.96

cash outlay:

304,500 x 0.06 = 18,270

amortization 18,270 - 13,456.96 = 4,813.04

How do society, politics, and culture affect HRM?

saul85 [17]

Explanation:

Human resource management is responsible for attracting, retaining and helping employees to develop skills that will contribute to an organization achieving its objectives and goals.

Therefore, this strategic business area is directly impacted by society, politics and culture, as human capital in companies is increasingly valued in companies, as today's society is more connected and more informed, which requires companies to adapt to increasingly developed and organized standards with respect to labor relations.

The globalized world directly impacted the relationship between the employee and the company, as it is necessary to stand out in an environment where there is so much competition, and this is also included in the area of human resources, because through an effective HR management, it is possible to capture and retaining talent for the organization that adapts to a world where there is greater interaction, greater need for innovation and vision.

The policy is also essential for the protection of employees and their rights, which means that HR must not only comply with legislative requirements for hiring, but also offer benefits that exceed those required, so that candidates are attracted to work in a company well positioned in the market.
