Answer:

E. Good Samaritan Statutes

Explanation:

Good Samaritan laws or Statutes offer legal protection to people or an Individual who give a reasonable assistance to those who are, or whom they believe to be, injured, ill, in peril, or incapacitated in one way or the other. This Law is intended to reduce the hesitation of bystanders to assist those in need of assistance(ill, Sick or incapacitated) for fear of being sued or prosecuted for unintentional injury or even wrongful death.

The Good Samaritan doctrine or law is a legal principle that prevents

or protects a rescuer who has voluntarily helped a victim in distress from being successfully sued for wrongdoing. Its major purpose is to keep people from being reluctant to help a stranger in need for fear of legal repercussions should they make some mistake in treatment.

Therefore the best Defense for Gabe in the situation from the Question is the GOOD SAMARITAN STATUTES.

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

True

It's True because you have to deduct from the total Accounts Receivable the balance in the Cr Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts  estimated.

The company estimate that 2% of the total Credit Sales will be uncollectible, which is, $4,000, if we deduct this value of the balance of accounts receivable of $38,000, we have a Net Realizable Value of Accounts Receivable of $34,000

Credit Sales $ 200,000

Samantha is trying to decide where she should place her extra money. She has heard of two types of financial institutions—deposi
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The two types of financial institutions—depository and non-depository

The main difference:

Depository institutions earn money from what customers put into the institution.

Non-depository institutions earn a profit from the interest paid on loans made to customers.

Explanation:

The best way to differentiate a depository institution from a non-depository institution is to compare the two terms.   Whereas a depository institution is a savings bank, legally allowed to accept monetary deposits from consumers (for example, commercial banks, savings and loan associations, or credit unions),  non-depository institutions do not accept monetary deposits from customers (for example insurance companies, pension funds, securities firms, government-sponsored enterprises, and finance companies), but they all render financial services.

Partridge Co. can further process Product J to produce Product D. Product J is currently selling for $21 per pound and costs $15
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Differential cost= $9.25

Differential revenue= $16

Explanation:

As the name suggest, differential cost is the difference between the costs of two alternative options. Now in this question, Patridge Co. has two products, PJ AND PD, <em>one of which (i.e PD) can be produced by further processing an already produced product (i.e PJ). But for the production of product D, Patridge Co. would have to incur additional cost of $9.25 per pound. </em>

The formula for differential cost is as follows;

Differential cost= total cost of alternative J - total cost of alternative D

Differential cost= $15.75 - ($15.75+$9.25)

Differential cost= $9.25

Differential revenue is similarly the difference between the revenue generated by two alternatives. In this question product J sells for $21 whereas product D sells for $37 so the differential revenue would be as follows:

Differential revenue = revenue of alternative D - revenue of alternative J

Differential revenue= $37 - $21

Differential revenue= $16
