Answer: A promissary note is not a negotiable instrument.

Explanation:

A promissary note is a financial instrument written by an issuer or maker to a payee promising a definite amount of money at a specified date.

A promissary note can either be negotiable or not. It becomes non-negotiable when certain conditions are met. Some of the conditions include:

1. A specific amount has been agreed upon by both parties

2. There are no conditions to be met before payment can be made.

Therefore, the statement, 'a promissary note is non negotiable' is false

ira [324]

Answer:

2020 net income overstatement  $5,000

2021  net income understatement $5,000

Explanation:

The lower of cost and net realizable method of valuing inventory is used in valuing closing inventory where cost is invoice and NRV is the estimated selling price less cost to sell

   X             $37          $48             $15            $33        $33

The inventory should have been  valued at $33 not at $38

This means that  inventory in 2020 was overstated by $5,000 ($38-$33)*1000)), costs of good sold in year 2020 was understated by $5,000 hence net income was overstated  by $5,000

The spillover effect in year 2021 is the reverse of 2020,hence understatement of net income by $5,000

Answer with its Explanation:

<u>Part A.</u>

There must be a clear information sharing policy of an organization like BP Oil Spill to restrict the inappropriate operations and reduce the negligence of the organizations so that they might not effect the future and present generation.

So the restricting of information is mostly impossible and that the restricting of information like Oil Spill can be far much dangerous for both land and marine life. So here, clear policy of defining the type of information to be conveyed to general public would be very useful. It is also one of the best practice that sustainability stresses upon which says that the operations that undermine or compromises the needs of the future generations must be abandoned.

There must also be a recovery policy for the ecosystem that we had damaged and thanks to social entrepreneurs who are doing this job much better than most of the multinational organizations.

There are also situations where the restricting the information is allowed and includes the following situations that permits the restriction of information:

  • If the provision of information can lead to security threats then it must be kept confidential till the time the security threat has been eliminated.
  • If the flow of information leads to the increase in the chaos and stress among the people then it must be retained during a disaster.
  • If the information results in increase in protests and affects the normal life of general public then it must be restricted for general public.
  • If an information promotes war among the nations then it must be restricted.
  • If the information that is for small time interval and has potential harmful outcomes due to disclosure of information then it must be retained by the organization.

The above mention points make it clear that the information can only be disclosed if the sensitivity of the matter is lost with time. The disclosure is compulsory because now it is the ethical requirement of the company to disclose the information. The disclosure of information must include the reasons that explains the issue and its root causes. Furthermore, it must also address the reason behind the retention of information and how it was in the best interest of the nation.

  • If the impact on the environment is continuously growing with time and if the companies are not taking right actions then it is possible that in the near future the harm to the society will be large and symptoms will become prominent as well.
  • If the environment disaster is large enough that it will spoil the reputation of the industry and as result results in harm to numerous stakeholders of the industry or if the whole of the industry would be blamed for negligence.
