Answer:

B. No, because the advertisements are an invitation to bid.

Explanation:

An advert is not legally binding as it is just a means to capture consumer attention and convince them to buy a product or service.

Advertisements are merely considered as invitations to bid so the one made by Neti-pot Co is misleading because anybody reading it will immediately assume if a consumer takes the product the way it is advertised and begin to get side effects, the company will really give out the $100 promised.

Therefore, Sheldon wont get any compensation even if she decides to sue.

She will have to bear the consequences alone.

The correct answer to the following question is option B) decrease.

Explanation:

Regressive tax is that of tax which is imposed in such manner that when the income level in the economy increases , the average tax rate would decrease. This type of tax has heavy burden on the low income people as it takes high proportion of their income.

A physical inventory on December 31 shows 4,000 units on hand. Eneri sells the units for $13 each. The company has an effective
stira [4]

<em>Answer</em>:

<u>$52,000</u>

Explanation:

Remember, the FIFO inventory costing method records the inventory value based on the cost of the earliest (first) purchased or in hand balance.

The effective tax rate would usually be applied after the sales, however using FIFO we assume the first value of the inventory prior to the tax deduction.

= 4000 x $13

= $52,000

Therefore, the gross profit for the period is $52,000.
