Review 4: AIMS Science Practice

Zolol [24]

Answer:

D. It has both good and bad effects, but we can't always predict what those are.

Explanation:

Of course, ethics mandates that the target of science and new technology should always pursue the good for humans; nevertheless, since time immemorial man has developed technology to make war. Thus, definetely, the first statement "A It always does good for human" is false.

Some other negative effects of new technology, like cars and nuclear power, have been harmful to the environment, but you cannot tell that this has always been so. Technology has also been developed to help the environment. For instance, panels to use solar energy do not harm the environment and seek to reduce fuel burning to help the environment. Thus, option B, "It always ends up doing harm to the environment" is false too.

Some of the damage that new technology can produce are not predicted both because the technology is new and because it may be used with different goals to those it was developed. This explains why option C, It has many bad effects, is false, and option D, "It has both good and bad effects, but we can't always predict what those are", is true.

On July 1, 20x1, Fox Co. purchased as a held-to-maturity investment $5,000,000 of Owl, Inc.'s 8% bonds for $4,580,000, including

Dimas [21]

Answer:

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,556,500

Explanation:

The carrying amount of bonds = $4,580,000 - $50,000

The carrying amount of bonds = $4,530,000

Amortization of discount from july 1 to dec 31 (6 months):

Interest Revenue = $4,530,000* 10% * 6/12

Interest Revenue= $226500

Interest Receivable = $5,000,000 * 8% * 6/12

Interest Receivable = $200000

Discount amortized =Interest Revenue - Interest Receivable

Discount amortized = $226500 - $200000

Discount amortized = $26500

So:

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,530,000 + $26500

The amount fox should report on Dec 31,20x1 = $4,556,500

Ann [662]

Answer: indemnification

Explanation: The indemnification clause is essentially the other party's obligation to compensate your damages if they do something that hurts you or allows you to be sued by a third party.

Indemnifying and keeping innocent means the same thing — making it whole after a defeat. Usually, but not always, the obligation to indemnify is reconcilable with the contractual obligation to "keep harmless" or "save harmless.

Hence from the above we can conclude that Rangle has right of indemnification.
