Answer:

B -  Maximum combinations of goods and services an economy can produce given its available resources and technology

Explanation:

The production possibilities curve shows all possible combinations of goods and services an economy can produce given its available resources and technology.

The production possibilities curve shows the economy's potential. Any point outside the PPC represents an unattainable combination as that level of production is not possible in the economy with the current technology and a point inside the PPC represents inefficient utilization of resources.

At its inception, Peacock Company purchased land for $50,000 and a building for $220,000. After exactly 4 years, it transferred
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Selvick company should record the building at $220,000 and accumulation depreciation of $44,000

Explanation:

The computation of deprecation is shown below:

Depreciation = (Original cost - salvage value) ÷ useful life

where,

Original cost is $220,000

Salvage value is 0

And, the useful life is 20 years

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the answer would be equal to

= $220,000 - 0 ÷ 20

= $11,000

And, the accumulated depreciation would be

= Depreciation × number of years

= $11,000 × 4

= $44,000

we ignored other information which is given in the question, as we have to compute the depreciation through Straight line method.

Hence, Selvick company should record the building at $220,000 and accumulation depreciation of $44,000

Stock prices tend to ignore unexpected changes in dividend payments. Companies prefer to cut dividend payments rather than borro
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer: B. Maintaining a steady dividend is a key goal of most dividend-paying companies.

Explanation:

Companies that pay dividends prefer in general, to maintain a steady dividend overtime. This does not necessarily mean that they will pay the same amount of dividend but rather that they will pay out dividends as within a certain percentage range of the net income.

Companies do not prefer to cut dividends so as not to send the wrong message so A is wrong. Share repurchases reduces agency costs so C is wrong. Short term fluctuations in cash flow are not the key favor in determining dividend policy as the company might still pay out the same regardless so this is wrong as well. Option B is the best answer.

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The theory of constraints focuses on establishing the most important limiting factor or constraint in a business and improve it in order to improve the whole company's performance.

In simple terms, a company recognizes their greatest weakness and tries to improve it, so that it no longer represents a limitation.

This theory was originally developed for manufacturing companies, and it was meant to reduce bottlenecks (manufacturing constraints). Therefore one of its main goals is to lower inventory levels and operating costs while increasing production output.
