Answer:

Unfortunate Accident

Explanation:

Since the accident was not due to any lack in the driving skills, but as Carla could not function properly, because of Heart Attack, this is not an accident for which Carla could be held liable.

Although Carla was driving, but she could be held liable, as that is because of unfortunate circumstances, not in the hands of Carla, and could not be avoided by the actions of Carla.

Thus, it is termed as Unfortunate Accident.

blondinia [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Diminishing returns.

Explanation:

The Law of Diminishing Marginal Returns states that as the number of new workers increases, an additional employee's marginal product at some stage would be less than the previous employee's marginal product. This is because at a certain point adding more employees implies not having enough space for the new hires to work which diminishes the marginal return of every new individual hired by the firm.

E.g. a project is generating high amounts of cash, so you can predict that it will continue to do so for some time. But what you cannot predict or even compare is related to the financial and investing transactions that the company will make in the future. E.g. by analyzing a cash flow you cannot know if the company will decide to invest in other projects or will it decide to issue more stocks.

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Option B Depreciation expense

Explanation:

The allocation of cost of the plant and equipment for the period being used is the concept of depreciation and is a period cost because when the asset is purchased its value decreases gradually with time which means some of the machinery value would be deminish during the year depending upon the technological factors, life of the equipment, etc. So the period cost will arise regardless of that we either use the asset or not which is the definition of period cost which in this case is depreciation cost and the allocation of cost of plant and equipment over its useful life is also depreciation cost.
