Answer:

Regarding to Claim to income, the correct answer would be C-Bottom

Explanation:

Shareholders can be preferred or common and they have differents claims to income.  Generally, preferred stock will be given preference in assets to common assets in case of company liquidation, nonetheless both will fall behind bondholders if asset distribution happen. If bankruptcy happen, common stock investors will receive any remaining funds after bondholders,  then creditors and preferred stockholders are paid. That's why these investors often receive nothing after a bankruptcy. Preferred stock also has the first right to receive dividends. In general, common stock shareholders will not receive dividends until it is paid out to preferred shareholders, and that happen because they are at the bottom of the pyramid.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

The unemployment rate is 42.85.

Explanation:

The formula to calculate the unemployment rate is:

Unemployment Rate = (Unemployed People / Total Labor) x 100 -- (1)

where total labor is the sum of the unemployed people and employed people.

Unemployed People = 10 Retired persons + 5 stay-at home parents + 10 persons with no job + 5 persons who wanted job

Unemployed People = 30

Labor Force = Employed people + Unemployed people

Labor Force = 40 + 30

Labor Force = 70

Putting the values in equation 1,

Unemployment Rate = ( 30/ 70) x 100

Unemployment Rate = 42.85

Unit Cost

Model A $133.97  

Model B $287.28

3. Activity-based costing method always produces the more accurate cost assignment.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Activity                    Expected Cost      Activity Driver    Activity Capacity

Setting up equipment   $548,080       Number of setups          680

Machine hours             24,000             18,000

Receiving hours             3,000               7,000

The company's normal activity is 8,000 direct labor hours.

Assignment of overhead costs:

                                        Model A                               Model B

Number of setups         $322,500 (400 * $806)    $161,200 (200 * $806)

Volgvan

Answer: No. It does not violate Title VII if Cynthia's employer does not grant her the leave.

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Cynthia, requested a two-week leave from her employer to go on a religious pilgrimage and that the pilgrimage was not a requirement of her religion, but Cynthia felt it was a calling from God.

Based on the scenario, Title VII is not violated if Cynthia's employer does not grant her the leave. According to the court, when an employee says that based on his or her religious belief, he or she is required to go to a pilgrimage, the person has to prove beyond reasonable doubt.

In this case, her church which is the Roman Catholic didn't call for a pilgrimage as it was her personal choice. Therefore, Title VII is not violated if Cynthia's employer does not grant her the leave.
