Answer:

willful misrepresentation

Explanation:

Willful misrepresentation is an intentional act or misrepresentation of facts with an intent to deceive. It is an intentional action taken by one party, which constitutes a breach of representation with an intent or act to mislead the other party to whom such representation was made.

The above scenario is an example of wilful misrepresentation because the broker knew that the foundation of the house was faulty but willfully misrepresented fact by telling the buyer that the home's foundation was 'solid as rock'.

34kurt

Answer:

B. ​increases; decreases

Explanation:

Foreign exchange market can be defined as type of market in which the currency of one country is converted into that of another country.

For example, the conversion of dollars of the United States of America can be converted into naira (Nigeria) at the foreign exchange market.

Efficient market school is the market school which argues that forward exchange rates do the best possible job for forecasting future spot exchange rates, so investing in exchange rate forecasting services would be a waste of time because it is impossible to have a consistent alpha generation on a risk adjusted excess returns basis as market prices are only affected by new informations.

The efficient market school also known as the efficient market hypothesis (EMH) is a hypothesis that states that asset (share) prices reflect all information and it is very much impossible to consistently beat the market.

Also, forward exchange rates are exchange rates controlling foreign exchange transactions at a specific future date or time.

An interest rate can be defined as an amount of money that is charged as a percentage of the total amount borrowed from an individual or a financial institution.

Generally, if the interest rate rises in the United States relative to other​ nations, then in the foreign exchange market the demand for dollars​ increases and the supply of dollars​ decreases because of the high value of the dollar compared to the other currency.

If accounts receivable and inventories increased by $85,000 (total), accounts payable increased by $14,000, and depreciation add
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

We can't define the firm's net income without additional information as either (1) or (2):

1) Revenues/ all income, and all expenses

2) Operating cash-flow together with interest expense, and tax rate

Explanation:

If we can have the operating cash-flow, then we can define EBIT (profit/ earnings before tax and interest) as below:

Operating cash-flow = EBIT  + depreciation - increase of accounts receivable and inventories + increase of accounts payable.

Assuming Operating cash-flow is $100,000 then we have:

EBIT = $100,000 + $64,000 - $85,000 + $14,000 = $93,000

Assuming the firm have no interest expense and tax rate is 35%, then net profit = EBIT*(1- tax rate) = $93,000 * (1-35%) = $60,450

When completed units are sold: Finished Goods Inventory account is debited. Cost of Goods Sold account is credited. Finished Goo
ankoles [38]

Answer:

C. Finished Goods Inventory account is credited.

Explanation:

In a perpetual system of inventory; which can be defined as a method of financial accounting, that involves the updating informations about an inventory on a continuous basis (in real-time) as the sales or purchases are being made by the customers, through the use of enterprise management software applications and a digitized point-of-sale equipment.

Under a perpetual system of inventory, updates of the journal entry for cost of goods sold or received would include debiting accounts receivable and crediting sales immediately as it is being made and Finished Goods Inventory account is also credited. The advantage of the perpetual system of inventory over the periodic system of inventory is that, it ensures the inventory account balance is always accurate provided there are no spoilage, theft etc.

Hence, when completed units are sold, Finished Goods Inventory account is credited.
