Answer:

D. + 1.69 %

Explanation:

To determine which is the correct answer to the question, we have to first evaluate whether the DOW was up or down for the day. The question provides the info that it was up 215.04 on that day. So automatically, the answer options A and C are eliminated since they represent negative changes.

To determine the percentage increase, we have to find out the prior day closing of the DOW, this is found out by subtracting the days' gain from the total level.

12,958.44 - 215.04  = 12,743.40

the gain for the day of 215.04 on the base figure represents the  % gain.

215.04 / 12743.40 = 1.69 %

                               debit             credit

beg. balance                                   426

                                                        106

Since you need $106 million to balance the account, that should be the amount of bad debt written off during the current year. Allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra asset account, any debit balance increases accounts receivable while a credit balance decreases it.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

a) channel members.

Explanation:

A push-based distribution system can be defined as one whose production plan is directed from management to the market, where products are sent through a channel until they reach retailers, and then to the final consumer.

Therefore, managers direct their promotional efforts more towards channel members, so that the path that the product goes through to reach the final consumer is effective so that the product arrives in the right way, in the right quantity and at the right time to the consumer. Effective management of the company 's distribution channel helps to reduce costs, reduce delays, speed up the capacity to meet demand, increase customer satisfaction, etc.

VashaNatasha [74]

I believe the answer is: A. Cars typically lose the most value in the first year after purchase

As the miles usage in cars increase, the quality of the machine tend to deteriorate, which would lead to the decrease in the cars' value. On top of that, the new model that given by car companies tend to possess better technology/design. On average, cars tend to lose 15 - 25 % in value during the first year.
