The company's price offer is the most important competitive factor in determining a company's ability to secure contracts to supply private-label footwear to large multi-outlet retailers of athletic footwear in a particular geographic region.
The S/Q ratings of both branded and private-label footwear manufactured at each production plant can be raised through TQM/Six Sigma quality control systems and best practices training.
Five things affect the S/Q rating: The following factors should be taken into account: (1) current-year spending per footwear model for new features and styling; (2) the percentage of superior materials used; (3) current-year expenditures for Total Quality Management (TQM) and/or Six Sigma quality control programs; (4) cumulative expenditures for TQM/Six Sigma quality control efforts (to reflect learning and experience curve effects); and (5) current-year and cumulative expenditures to train employees in using the best practices to assemble athletic footwear.

Income tax payable $90 million
deduct;increase in deferred tax asset($170-$130) ($40 million)
Add;unrealized deferred tax asset($170*30%) $51 million

Answer: Higgins should report this litigation as a contingent liability.
Explanation: A liability that is contingent upon an event, that is, dependent on a future event that may or may not happen is called contingent liability. Potential law suits, pending investigations are some of the examples of contingent liability.
A contingent liability will only be recorded if there is likely probability that the event on which such liability depends will occur and the amount of liability could be reasonably estimated.
Answer:
Density of propane = 17.8 g/L
Propane is more priced than gasoline
Explanation:
Given:
Temperature, T = 298 K
Pressure, P = 10 bar = 0.987 × 10 = 9.87 atm
now,
Molar mass of propane, M = 44.1 g/mol
From ideal gas law
⇒ PV = nRT
here,
n is the number of moles
R is the ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K
also,
Density, D = 
or
V = 
and,
nM = mass
thus,
V = 
substituting in the ideal gas relation
we have
P = 
or
D = 
or
D = 
or
D = 17.8 g/L
Now,
1 gallon = 3.78 Liter
Therefore,
5 gallon = 5 × 3.78 Liter = 18.9 Liter
Thus,
mass of 5 gallon propane = Volume × Density
= 18.9 Liter × 17.8 g/L
= 336.42 g
or
= 0.336 kg
also it is given that Price of 5 gallon propane i.e 0.336 kg = $30
Therefore,
Price per kg = 
= $89.28
and,
Mass of 5 gallons i.e 18.9 Liter gasoline = Density × Volume
= 0.692 g/cm³ × 18.9 Liter
also,
1 L = 1000 cm³
thus,
= 0.692 g/cm³ × 18.9 × 1000 cm³
= 13078.8 g
or
= 13.078 kg
Therefore,
Price per kg of gasoline = 
= $2.29
hence, propane is more priced than gasoline
