Jimbo Electronics sells navigation equipment used in airports. You have been working with the government of a western European c

ountry and have gotten them to agree to purchase this equipment for all airports in that country. The value of the contract is over $10 Million US dollars. In your last meeting with the government official responsible for signing the contract, you discover that this official is demanding that you paid him a $5,000 dollars "finders fees" for his assistance. Further, he said you are to build this into the the contract price so that there would be no cost to Jimbo. When you indicated that you would not do this, the official said the deal was off. Further, the official said and you have confirmed that such arrangements are considered "normal" in this country.

In this text, we learn about the behaviour of the government official responsible for signing the contract. The official appears to be demanding money known as a "finder's fee." However, this was not part of the official agreement, and appears unethical to you. The official justifies it by saying that it is common place in his country. These actions would be considered both ilegal (because they go against the law) and unethical (because they do not follow the values that society accepts as fair). Some executives might think that reacting in this way can cause American corporations to suffer a competitive disadvantage. However, I disagree. While in some cases this might mean that American corporations cannot compete with other, more corrupt corporations, following the law is likely to lead to peace and stability, which ultimately benefits corporations.

When the company pays rent expense for the current month, what is the effect on the accounting equation for that company?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

decrease the stockholder equity and decrease in assets

Explanation:

As we know, the accounting equation is  

Total assets = Total liabilities + stockholder equity

In the given case,  

The rent is paid for the current month, so the journal entry would be

Rent expense A/c Dr XXXXX

    To Cash A/c XXXXX

(Being rent is paid)

So it decreases the stockholder equity as it includes the income and expenses part and it decreases in assets as it reduces the cash balance

A sewage treatment revenue bond issue is being underwritten on a negotiated basis. The offering consists of $50,000,000 par valu
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

The multiple choices are :

a.$8

b.$20

c.$22

d.$45

The correct option is C.$22

Explanation:

The earnings accruing to the selling group is the selling concession of $22 per $5,000 per bond.

Option A is obviously wrong as there is nothing in the questions that suggest earnings of $8 per bond for the selling group.

Option D is wrong as well because $45 per bond is the spread  which is the extra yield to bondholders when compared to investment in government securities

If a person was sufficiently intoxicated to lack the mental capacity to comprehend the legal consequences of entering into the c
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is True.

Explanation:

When an intoxicated person enters into a contract, the contract can either be enforceable, meaning held to the fullest extent of the law, or voidable by the intoxicated person. The court will look at two criteria that need to be present in order to make the contract voidable:

  • The intoxication was severe enough that the person entering into the contract was incapacitated.
  • The other party was aware of the intoxication at the time.

A voidable contract, in this instance, is one in which the intoxicated party can end the agreement under certain terms. To expand on the criteria above, in order for the intoxicated person to void the contract, there needs to be adequate proof that one of the following occurred:

  • The intoxicated person consumed enough alcohol or drugs to cause impairment in thinking sufficient enough that he could not understand the legal ramifications of entering into the contract.
  • The other party to the contract knew of the intoxication.
