Answer:

$117,600

Explanation:

Boxes of Frosted Flakes ×Estimate of Box Tops to be redeemed

1,344,000×60%= 806,000

806,000- 630,000 (Box Tops redeemed) =176,400

Estimate of Box Tops left to be received /Number of Box Tops Needed per bowl

176,400/3= 58,800 Total bowls estimated to be sent to customers in future

58,800 x 2.00 (The Cost of bowls to company was $3 while the cash to be received from customer was $1)

= $117,600 Which will be the total premium liability to be recorded.

Answer: $117,600

Explanation: From the above question, In 2021, the company sold 1,344,000 boxes of Frosted Flakes.

1,344,000 /3 = 448,000 pottery cereal bowl is expected to be redeemed in the year.

customers redeemed 630,000 boxtops receiving 210,000 bowls.

estimates that 60% of the boxtops will be redeemed = 1,344,000 * 60% = 806,400 and 630,000 was redeemed = 806,400 - 630,000 = 176,400 unredeemed at the end of the year.

Outstanding liability for 2021 = 176,400/3 = 58,800 x ($3 - $1)

= 58,800 x $2 = $117,600

Note that customers get a pottery cereal bowl if they send in 3 boxtops from Sheridan Frosted Flakes boxes and $1 and the bowl costs $3. To the actual cost estimate of the bowl is $3 -$1 = $2

In a minimum 200 words explain the idea behind the balance of power. How did this concept play itself out in Europe? How was thi
Ket [755]

Answer:

Hi

It meant a political situation among the states in which none of them achieved a power superior to the others. It is an idea of the late Middle Ages, applied to major or minor geographic regions that comprise the plurality of sovereign territories. Throughout Europe there is a legitimate feeling, always subject to interpretation, whereby any action required the confirmation of the rest of the States, the most significant case being the invasion of a territory. In this way the doctrine of just war was reached, to the problem of to what extent and to what extent the actual or imminent engraving of a State could mean a warlike justification. Transactions between contestants, neutral or rival, never ended, hence the relevance of diplomacy, as the concepts of balance, neutrality, freedom of Europe or sovereignty are interpreted continuously, while being used in conversations. Some thought of equilibrium as a natural system, because it was a consequence of international relations, and when a great power had too much force it threatened the others, and therefore, had to counteract the disproportion. Others considered it a desired goal for which he had fought.

In the rest of the world this balance of powers is characterized by the profusion of dictatorial or authoritarian regimes that have dominated the political scene and that have influenced the future of their peoples. A second point is the emergence of serious and bloody war conflicts, by territorial issues, which is not explained very well both in its unleashing and in its results, as consequences of the mere quantification of the powers faced. In all these, both in its gestation and its consequences, the role it plays in the character, personal ambitions and strategic conceptions of the leaders or rulers who govern the destinies of the countries involved appears with particular relevance.

Bison Autos and Sparrow Co. are automobile manufacturers that both incur $9,000 to manufacture a vehicle. Recent numbers indicat
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Sparrow Co's automobiles are premium brands that command premium prices

Explanation:

The fact that both automobile makers incurs the same cost of $9,000 is just one of many factors to consider because the processes involved in manufacturing are not necessarily the same.

Besides,the level of workforce efficiency and the state of technology deployed are not necessarily the same.

It could also be that Sparrow Co. was able to achieve same level of cost with Bison Autos because it adopted modern cost reductions techniques such as Just-In Time which eliminates the need to keep inventory, thereby  eliminating excessive costs of holding inventory.

All in all,Sparrow Co,could project itself as a maker of high-end brands and increase prices as appropriate.

An external competitor to Construction (from another island) is offering to build the new homes for $1300 each. Here are facts a
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

a. The minimum transfer price (per home) that Construction would be willing to accept would be $1,270

b. The maximum transfer price (per home) Island Evaluations would be willing to accept would be $1,300

Explanation:

a. According to the given data If Construction accepts the proposal of Island Evaluations, then it has to foregone the profits which could have been earned if Construction accepted the proposal of local villagers to build an incline, a bridge and a campground.

Hence, minimum transfer price (per home) for Construction should be such that it covers the profit foregone as given above:

Now, profit foregone is calculated as per the table below:

Figures in $

Particulars Revenue Cost Profit

Incline        1400          600 800

Bridge         1500 950  550

Campground 2700 1200 1500

Total        5600 2750 2850

Therefore, the transfer price should be such which can generate a profit of $2,850 for Construction.

Therefore, total revenue which should be generated = Cost of building five new homes + Profit foregone

= 700*5 + 2850 = $6,350

Hence, minimum transfer price (per home) should be = 6350/5 = $1,270

b. The maximum transfer price (per home) that Island Evaluations will be willing to accept is $1,300 per home as quoted by the external competitor from another island.
