Electronic audio and video devices are never used by terrorists for surveillance purposes. true or false

hammer [34]

The answer would be false. Since they are terrorists, they would likely scheme and plot in ways where they won’t get caught so it is likely that they will use devices in monitoring their surroundings in a way of helping them carry out their plans, devices they use may be electronic audio and video devices which could be seen in the statement above.

Bond A pays $4,000 in 14 years. Bond B pays $4,000 in 28 years. (To keep things simple, assume these are zero-coupon bonds, whic

Arlecino [84]

Answer and Explanation:

Given that Bond A pays $4,000 in 14 years and Bond B pays $4,000 in 28 years, and that the interest rate is 5 percent, we see that Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is 70/5 = doubled after 14 years. Now if its value is 4000 in 14 years, its current value must be halved. Hence the value is 2000.

Sinilarly the value of Bond B is approximately one fourth now because it pays 4000 in 28 years. Hence its value is 4000/4 = 1000.

Now suppose the interest rate increases to 10 percent. Hence the doubling time is 70/10 = 7 years

Using the rule of 70, the value of Bond A is now approximately 1,000 and the value of Bond B is 250

Comparing each bond’s value at 5 percent versus 10 percent, Bond A’s value decreases by a smaller percentage than Bond B’s value.

The value of a bond falls when the interest rate increases, and bonds with a longer time to maturity are more sensitive to changes in the interest rate.

Consider the statement: "Even if a firm is losing money, it may be better to stay in business in the short run." This statement

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

if the loss is less than fixed costs

Price exceeds the average variable cost.

Explanation:

If a business is making losses and wants to shut down operations, it will need to keep paying the fixed cost component.

In a case where the loss made from running the business is less than the fixed cost that will be incurred, it is better for the business to keep producing in the short run. The cost of closing up will be higher.

Also the business should stay open if the price of a product is higher than its average variable cost. This is because as production increases the positive contributing margin will eventually exceed cost incurred. This can be achieved by scaling production upward.

Osborn Manufacturing uses a predetermined overhead rate of $20.00 per direct labor-hour. This predetermined rate was based on a

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

1. Manufacturing overhead applied = Actual hours * Predetermined overhead rate

Manufacturing overhead applied = 13300 * $20

Manufacturing overhead applied = $266,000

From the question, Osborn Manufacturing actually incurred $275,000 of manufacturing overhead. Hence, the Manufacturing overhead is under-applied because the applied manufacturing overhead is less than the actual manufacturing overhead

Hence, Manufacturing overhead under-applied = $275,000 - $266,000

= $9,000

2. Since the applied manufacturing overhead is less than the actual manufacturing overhead, the gross margin would decrease by $9,000. The journal entry will use the under-applied manufacturing overhead for record.
