Nady [450]

Answer:

The correct answer is option e.

Explanation:

The GDP of a country is the value of final goods and services produced in the geographical boundaries of a nation in a year. It does not include the value of intermediate goods produced. This is because it may lead to double counting. So the value of intermediate goods is included as a part of the value of the final good. It also does not include the value of services provided by homemakers.

Financial transactions such as purchase and sale of stocks and shares are not included. This is because it does not involve the production of any good or service. Sale of second-hand goods is also not included because of the problem of double counting.

marishachu [46]

Answer:

$230,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Days sales outstanding, DSO = 23 days

Annual sales = $3,650,000

Assume that it uses a 365 day year

Accounts receivable = (Annual sales × Days sales outstanding) ÷ 365 days

                                  = ($3,650,000 × 23) ÷ 365 days

                                  = $83,950,000 ÷ 365 days

                                  = $230,000

Therefore, the Baxley Brothers has  $230,000 balance in its accounts receivable.
