Dupe's present age = 14 years

Olu's present age = 11 years

Explanation:

  • Let Dupe's age be x. Let Olu's age be y. Since their ages add up to 25 years, x + y = 25
  • Eight years ago Dupe's age was double that of Olu's age. Solving by simultaneous equations. Four methods are Elimination Method, Graphical Method, Substitution Method, and    Matrix Method. Let us try out Elimination method for solving a pair of simultaneous linear equations that reduces one equation to one that has only a single variable. Once this has been done, the solution is the same as that for when one line was vertical or parallel.
  • Therefore, eight years ago, Dupe's age was 6 and Olu's age was 3 so that x=2y becomes, 6=2*3. Eight years hence, x=6+8=14 and y=3+8=11. That makes, x or Dupe's age as 14 years and y or Olu's age as 11 years.

Discuss which financial management practices are least effective in creating and monitoring an operating budget.
Vinil7 [7]

Top down/bottom up budgets, lack of control, poor inventorying, lack of staff investment, over control are the least effective financial management practices in creating and monitoring an operating budget.

The operating budget includes the expenditures and revenues generated by the company's daily business functions. The operating budget focuses on operating expenses, such as the cost of goods sold in the market, also known as the cost of sold goods (COGS), and revenue or income. COGS is the cost of direct labor and direct materials used in the production process.

The operating budget also includes overhead and administration costs that are directly related to manufacturing goods and providing services. However, capital expenditures and long-term loans will not be included in the operating budget. Budgets for sales, production process or manufacturing, labor, overhead, and administration are a few examples of frequently utilized operating budgets.

larisa [96]

Answer:

The CPA Practice Advisor

The probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean is:

= 56%

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Population mean (preparation fee for 2017 federal income tax returns) = $273

Population standard deviation of preparation fees = $100

Mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns = $257 (which is within $16 of the population mean)

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = standard score

x = observed value

μ = mean of the sample

σ = standard deviation of the sample

Z = ($273 - $257)/$100

= 0.16

Using the z-table

P = 0.5636
