Answer:

The answer is A. Mutual mistake

Explanation:

A contract is an agreement ( whether written or verbal ) between two parties that is legally binding.  

A mutual mistake occur in a contract when both parties to a contract are mistaken about a material fact. It is a situation where the parties to a contract have identical misconception about a material fact in the contract.

In the explanation given in the contract between Randolf and the Art gallery manager, it is obvious that the art painting that is to be bought and sold was not well clarified by both parties, and the art manager acted based on an invalid assumption.

Hence the correct answer to this question is  A. Mutual mistake

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": mutual mistake.

Explanation:

A mutual mistake is a fault committed by the two parties of a transaction that usually leads them to dissolved the initial contract to sing a new one with the corrections necessary. This is done to keep the good relationship between the buyer and the seller so both can consider each other for future businesses.

In the example, <em>the mutual mistake Randolf and the gallery's manager made was not specifying which piece of art was to be sold.</em>

Answer: 5.36%

Explanation:

The after-tax cost of debt refers to the interest that is paid on debt which is then less the income tax savings as a result of the deductible interest expenses.

When calculating the after-tax cost of debt, the effective tax rate of a company should be subtracted from 1, after which the difference will be multiplied by the cost of debt. This will therefore be:

= Rate (10,8% × 1000, -960 + 20, 1000) × (1-40%)

=5.36%

Tatiana [17]

Total pay for this week = $16*40 + $16*1.75*10 = $920

Prior Gross pay = 23,200

Total Gross pay = 920 +23,200 = $24,120

Social security = 0.06*24,120 = $1,447.20

Medicare = 0.015*24,120 = $361.80

Federal Tax withheld = $212

Total deductions = 1447.20 +361.80+212 = 2,021

Total Net Pay = 24,120 -2,021 =$22,099

Bess [88]

Answer:

Correct Option is B) Rochester Income Increase, Reedsburg Income No effect

Explanation:

As per IFRS,

When a company holds share of any company up to 20% then it is an associate, and in this case Rochester holds only 15% and thus will increase its net income with dividend received. (Cost method is followed)

When a company holds more than 20 % and less than 50% then the equity method is followed until and unless major significance is not exercised, generally it is exercised. In that case equity method is followed, and any income received is adjusted from cost of investment, and do not form part of income.
