Answer:

The retained earnings for the end of the year is $900

Explanation:

Retained earning is calculated as

Beginning retained earnings + Net income - cash dividend

in the questions we were given the beginning retained earning(BRE) as $400 and Cash dividend as $100. However we were not given the actual Net income but we can derive  the net income by deducting the expenses from the total revenue.

solution

Net income = revenue - expenses = $800 - $200= $600

Now we can calculate our Retained earnings by adding

Beginning retained earning $400

Net income $ 600

and deducting the cash dividend $100

$400 + $600 - $100 = $900

Beech Soda, Inc. uses a perpetual inventory system. The company's beginning inventory of a particular product and its purchases
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

the cost of goods sold to be recorded at January 14 is: $230 .

Explanation:

LIFO (Last in First out) method, assumes that the last goods purchased are the <em>first ones</em> to be issued to the final customer.

This means that valuation of inventory will begin using the value of the <em>earliest</em> goods purchased.

The Cost of goods sold is calculated as follows :

Cost of goods sold : 9 units × $14 = $126

                                  13 units × $8 = $104

                                  Total              = $230

In the late 1800s, a Frenchman observed that individuals who recovered from a disease were not susceptible to that same disease
hoa [83]

Answer:

The process of "exposing healthy subjects to related or weakened disease agents to protect them from the pathogenic agent is now known as vaccination." But using the syphilis organisms would spread a full-blown serious disease agent. "Mercury and Salvarsan were used to treat syphilis. Although both treatments killed the bacterium, Treponema pallidum, the causative agent of syphilis they also caused rashes, liver damage, loss of limbs and life. These side effects have been attributed to improper handling of the drug."

Seventy new jobs are opening up at an automobile manufacturing plant, and 1000 applicants show up for the 70 positions. To selec
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

  • <em>As explained below, given that the score of the person is among the 0.03125 fraction of the best applicants, </em><u><em>he can count on getting one of the jobs.</em></u>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The hint is to use <em>Chebyshev’s Theorem.</em>

Chebyshev’s Theorem applies to any data set, even if it is not bell-shaped.

Chebyshev’s Theorem states that at least 1−1/k² of the data lie within k standard deviations of the mean.

For this sample you have:

  • mean: 60
  • standard deviation: 6
  • score: 84

The number of standard deviations that 84 is from the mean is:

  • k = (score - mean) / standar deviation
  • k = (84 - 60) / 6 = 24 / 6 = 4

Thus, the score of the person is 4 standard deviations above the mean.

How good is that?

Chebyshev’s Theorem states that at least 1−1/k² of the data lie within k standard deviations of the mean. For k = 4, that is:

  • 1 - 1/4² = 1 - 1/16 = 0.9375

  • That means that half of 1 - 0.9375 are above k = 4: 0.03125

  • Then, 1 - 0.03125 are below k = 4: 0.96875

Since there are 70 positions and 1,000 aplicants, 70/1,000 = 0.07. The compnay should select the best 0.07 of the applicants.

Given that the score of the person is among the 0.03125 upper fraction of the applicants, this person can count of geting one of the jobs.
