Answer: E. and exercise this authority with great frequency

Explanation:

The Congress has the authority to declare war but has not been exercising this authority with great frequency most times they are reluctant to declare war and has only declared eleven wars in the history of America.

They have rarely exercise this power one of the reasons being to cut down funding of war, they preferred to authorize presidential military action without a declaration of war.

Explain one situation when you will use these two pricing strategies penetration pricing and skimming prices
Dominik [7]

Answer:

An electronic news portal that offers one complimentary month for something like a free trial service or an institution that offers a free bank account for 6 months are both instances of penetration pricing.

A pricing technique known as price skimming is establishing a premium charge when other rivals enter the market. For instance, the Playstation 3 was initially priced at $599 in the United States, but has now been lowered to around $200.

Answer:

1. Record the adjusted for Dec 31 2021

Dr Unrealized holding loss—OCI 26,000

Cr Fair value adjustment 26,000

2.

No amounts would be reported in the income statement at December 31, 2021 .

Amount $ 0

Explanation:

1.

Fair-value adjustment of $0 to ($26,000):

Fair Value Adjustment

Balance on 1/1/2021 $0

± Adjustment needed to update fair value?

Balance needed on 12/31/2021 ($21,000 − $47,000) = ($26,000)

Fair-Value Adjustment

1/1/2021 $0

Change needed $26,000

12/31/2021 $26,000

2.No amounts would be reported in the income statement at December 31, 2021 because the accumulated net holding gains and losses are reported as a component of shareholders' equity while changes in the balance are reported as other comprehensive income in the statement of comprehensive income rather than as part of earnings.

Which one of the following is least apt to help convince managers to work in the best interest of the stockholders? Threat of a
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Salary raises based on length of service  

Explanation:

Agency conflict occur when the owners of a firm do not manage the company. Instead, the firm is managed by mangers. As a result, the interest of the manger might not be aligned with that of the owners and as a result the manager would not act in the best interest of the owners.

Agency problem is more common in public companies

If management compensation tied to the market value of the firm's stock, it would incentivise managers to take steps that would ensure that the value of the company's stock increases. This is because they would also benefit if the value of the stock increases

A stock option plan gives managers the option of buying a company's stock if certain targets are met. This would motivate an employee to work in the best interest of the shareholders

A proxy fight and a takeover would make the managers to lose their jobs. Most managers would not want to lose their jobs. A threat of a takeover or a proxy fight can serve to motivate mangers to act in the best interest of the stockholders
