Answer: b. The company will be flooded with applications from individuals who are barely qualified.
Explanation:
By putting job advertisements on popular websites which are full of people looking for jobs, the company will attract people who are underqualified but apply anyway on the off chance that they are called for an interview. The company will incur costs sifting through the applications to find suitable candidates.
This will be a waste of the company's resources as those resources could have been directed at getting prospective employees that would be a better fit with the company and have the relevant qualifications. This could have been done by going to a recruiting agency for instance.

Answer:
AFS 2004 market price decline exceeded 2005 market price recovery
No No
The security cannot be classified as available-for-sale because the unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the Income Statement. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities are recognized in owners' equity, not earnings.
The second part of the question is somewhat ambiguous. The 2004 price decline could exceed or be exceeded by the 2005 price recovery. The loss in the first year is not related in amount and does not constrain the realized gain in the second year.
The way to answer the question is to read the right column heading as implying that the earlier price decline must exceed the later price recovery. With that interpretation, the correct answer is no.
For example, assume a cost of $10 and a market value of $4 at the end of the first year. An unrealized loss of $6 is recognized in earnings. During the second year, the security is sold for $12. A realized gain of $8 is recognized-the increase in the market value from the end of the first year to the sale in the second year. Thus, the market decline in the first year did not exceed the recovery in year two. (It could have exceeded the recovery in year two but there is no requirement that it must.)
