Answer:

D) Five Guys Burgers

Explanation:

Five Guys Burgers is the fastest growing fast food chain in the US, although that can be explained due to its relatively small size compared to other huge chains like McDonald's, Burger King or Wendy's. It currently operates 1,500 restaurants around the world (most in the US) and plans to open 1,500 more in the next few years.

Its greatest advantage is that is offers a differentiated service and its relative small size allows it to be more flexible. Its website also gets a lot of online traffic.

The combination of all these factors means that they have a lot of potential to grow and gain a higher market share.

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 using the indirect method.

Cash flow from operating activities:

Net loss = $12,000

Adjustment to reconcile net loss with cash flows from operating activities:

Depreciation = ($20,000 + $10,000 - $13,000) = $7,000

Loss on sale of land = $2,000

Increase in accounts receivable = ($20,000)

Increase in prepaid expense = ($5,000)

Increase in accounts payable = $6,000

Net cash used in operating activities = ($12,000)

Cash flow from investing activities

Sale of land = ($40,000 - $18,000 - $2,000) = $20,000

Sale of equipment = $5,000

Net cash generated by investing activities = $25,000

Cash flow from financing activities

Retirement of bond = ($12,000)

Proceeds from issuance of bonds = $20,000

Net cash used by financing activities = $8,000

Net increase in cash = $6,000

Add: beginning cash balance = $31,000

Ending cash balance = $37,000

Workings

• Calculation of depreciation

The accumulated depreciation at the end of the year 2020 = ($20,000)

Hence;

Accumulated depreciation at the end of the year 2020 = ($13,000)

Increase in accumulated depreciation during 2020 = $20,000 - $13,000 = $7,000

Add: accumulated depreciation on equipment sold during 2017 = $10,000

Total depreciation expense for 2020 = $7,000 + $10,000 = $17,000

• Calculation of proceeds from sale of land:

Cost of land = $40,000 - $18,000 = $22,000

Loss on sale of land = $2,000

Therefore,

Proceeds from sale of land = cost of land sold - loss on sale of land

= $22,000 - $2,000

= $20,000

• Calculation of issuance of bonds payable during 2020

The bonds payable at the end of year 2019 = $19,000

Hence,

Bonds payable at the end of year 2020 = $27,000

Retirement of bonds during year 2020 = $12,000

Therefore,

Bonds issued during 2020 = $27,000 + $12,000 - $19,000 = $20,000

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer: describe the bottom line of the policy changes at the beginning of the memo

Explanation:

The options to the question are:

a. describe the bottom line of the policy changes at the beginning of the memo.

b. include an apology at the end of the memo stating the inconveniences that could be caused due to the new policy.

c. present the rationale for the new policies at the memo's beginning.

d. highlight controversial issues, which could arise after the new policies have been implemented, in the memo.

From the question, we are informed that Rubina is the director of procurement at Baines Corporation and that she plans to send a memo to the employees in her department outlining some changes in the company's personnel policies as she believes that most of the employees will view the changes favorably.

Since she is of the opinion that most of the employees will view the changes favorably, she can describe the bottom line of the policy changes at the beginning of the memo. This is because she believes the memo will get a favourable audience. In a situation whereby she is not sure if it will be favourable, in the begining of the memo, she may have to offer and apology and tell them the rationale behind the memo before going into further details.

yanalaym [24]

The correct answer is that the price elasticity of demand is elastic.

Price elasticity occurs when a change in price results in a change in demand. In this example, a 20 percent increase in the price of the drinks resulted in a 25 percent decrease in the demand for the product. Because the price increase resulted in a demand decrease the price is elastic.
