Answer: 30 days

Explanation: Cash cycle refers to the amount of time it takes for a business from paying cash to its suppliers for raw materials and receiving cash from its customers fro the sales made.

Hence from the above we can say that :-

decrease in inventory will decrease the cycle.

Decrease in receivables will decrease the cycle.

decrease in payables will increase the cycle.

Thus,

cash cycle =  31 days - 2 days + 4 days - 3 days

                  = 30 days

Answer:

CREATES AN ADVANTAGE FROM ECONOMIES OF SCALE.

Explanation:

A well designed global strategy can help firms to gain competitive advantage. This competitive advantage can be gotten from economies of scale from access to more customers, markets, technology, and resources (efficiency of operations).

Economies of scale simply means that as a company grows and production units increase, a company will have a better chance to decrease its costs.

Competitive advantage is developed largely on a global basis meaning that the world is treated as one market and one source of supply with just local variation. Example is the Pepsi and Coca-Cola that sells in every country.

Therefore, a global strategy CREATES AN ADVANTAGE FROM ECONOMIES OF SCALE.

During January 2017 General Fund supplies ordered in the previous fiscal year and encumbered at an estimated amount of $2,000 we
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Expenditures—2017 in the amount of $200. (C.)

Explanation:

This scenario describes a record that was less than the actual amount spent on the General Fund supplies. The amount recorded was $2,000, meanwhile the actual amount spent was $2,000. This entails that an amount worth $200 was not recorded, hence it will be debited as expenditures, but the question now is where the debit will be recorded?

This review was done in January 2017, meaning that the income statement for the 2016 Fiscal year must have been balanced, hence the amount will be an expenditure recorded in 2017, but the particulars will have a description that it was a carried over expenditure from 2016. Therefore $200 will be debited from 2017 as expenditures.
