Answer:
a. The critical path is 16 minutes.
b. The length of time to complete the entire process = 23 minutes.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Activity Optimistic time Most Likely Time Pessimistic Time
to complete to Complete to Complete
A Hike to the campsite 3 5 8
B Set up campsite 2 4 5
C Collect wood for fire 1 3 5
D Start a fire 1 2 3
E Find water 0.5 1 3
F Collect water & bring it
back to camp 1 2 4
G Purify the water 1 2 4
H Cook and eat dinner 1 3 4
I Put out fire 1 2 4
J Dispose of food waste 0.5 2 3
K Return from food
waste disposal 0.25 1 2
Total time 12.25 27 45
Critical path: Activity A - Activity B
Activity A - Activity C 3 - Activity D 2 - Activity E 1 - Activity F 2
Activity G 2 - Activity H 3 - Activity I and J 2 - Activity K 1
= 3 + 2 + 1 + 2+ 2 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 16 minutes
Length of time to complete the entire process = 27 - 4 = 23
The critical path identifies the longest stretch of dependent activities and measuring the time required to complete them from start to finish.

Answer:
a)Jada's basis for depreciation in the property is NIL.
b) Personal property that has no intrinsic value is called 'INTANGIBLE PROPERTY'.
Explanation:
Due to a decline in the property values over the past few years Jada has converted her personal residence to rental property and/or investment property which is a subject dealt within IAS 40 (Investment property).
According to IAS 40 an investment property is land or building held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both rather than use in the entity. IAS 40 requires to initially measure investment property at cost and subsequently may either measure at cost or fair value model. Fair value is normally established by prevailing market prices.
IAS 40 also mentions that if an asset is revalued to fair value the gain and loss should be recorded in statement of profit and loss and 'NO DEPRECIATION IS CHARGED ON THE ASSET AFTER THE FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT'.
Therefore, following the instructions laid out by IAS 40 Jada's basis for depreciation in the property is NIL.
2) Personal property with no intrinsic value:
Personal property that has no intrinsic value is called 'INTANGIBLE PROPERTY'.
Lets first understand what intrinsic value is. Intrinsic value of an asset refers to the market led and/or market-driven price of that asset. This means those assets which don't have an active market for sale and purchase will have no intrinsic value. This is absolutely the case with intangible assets, because most intangible assets are unique and uncommon, such as, GOODWILL, PATENTS, COPYRIGHTS, therefore due to the uniqueness and exclusivity of such assets an active market place doesn't exist therefore it's hard to determine an intrinsic value for such kind of assets/ properties.
Answer:
The correct statement is C. This statement is misleading because a no-load fund cannot charge more than 25 basis points of 12b-1 fees
Explanation:
THIS STATEMENT IS MISLEADING BECAUSE A NO-LOAD FUND CANNOT CHARGE MORE THAN 25 BASIS POINTS OF 12B-1 FEES.
A mutual fund is not permitted to advertise itself as a "no-load" fund if it charges 12b-1 fees of more than .25% (25 basis points) annually. 12b-1 fees are charges against net asset value that pay for the cost of soliciting new investment to the fund, and they can be used to compensate salespersons that sell the fund's shares.
