Answer:

The correct answer is c. the company's present businesses offer attractive growth opportunities and can be counted on to generate good earnings and cash flows for shareholders.

A commercial line of products refers to products that are related to each other by some condition such as price, use or distribution. If, after evaluating the market, it is found that these products have a high growth potential, the best thing would be to continue betting on them within a reasonable period of time to reach a considerable level of sales. These products can in some way motivate the sale of others and therefore generate profits in the medium or short term for the shareholders.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Direct materials used in production = $250,000

Direct labor = $185,000

= $670,500

Answer:

A. the double coincidence of wants problem.

Explanation:

Trade by barter involves the exchange of goods and services for goods and services without the use of money as a medium of exchange. In barter system, there is what we call double coincidence of wants. This is the economic situation whereby both parties holds what the other wants to buy, so they exchange the goods directly. Here, both parties agrees to buy and sell each other commodities. However, if one of the party is not interested in what the other party is offering, it causes a disruption in the trade. This disruption refers to a drawback in the system like the example described in the question.

Here, Andy couldn't make a deal with Danny even tho he wants what Danny is offering. This is because what Danny isn't interested in what Andy is offering. Thus, the double coincidence of want and barter trade can't occur between the two parties.
