The client at the HIV clinic has come in complaining of unintended weight loss with diarrhea lasting over the last month. How is
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is Loss of 10% of usual weight.

Explanation:

The attrition syndrome associated with HIV infection is characterized by:

  1. Loss of involuntary body weight and greater than 10% compared to the normal reference weight.
  2. Diarrhea or chronic weakness with fever, for a period greater than 30 days.
  3. Absence of any infection or condition other than HIV: cancer, tuberculosis, cryptosporidiasis and other enteritis that could explain these symptoms.
  4. In practice, any progressive and involuntary weight loss of this magnitude is considered a syndrome of attrition and translates into the development of a significant nutritional deficit that leads to significant physical and psychological deterioration.

The attrition syndrome may be a consequence of HIV infection itself. Thus, those patients presenting with symptoms of wear and tear should use all available options of antiretroviral therapy, which may remit symptoms and not require other specific interventions. It is also associated with opportunistic HIV infections and cancers. Opportunistic infections that cause diarrhea can cause attrition syndrome. This can cause greater immunodeficiency in affected people and predispose them to certain diarrheal opportunistic infections, which would be reinforced by a vicious cycle.

Using the estimated sales and production of 140,000 boxes of Chap-Off, the Accounting Department has developed the following man
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Silven Industries

If Silven buys its tubes from the outside supplier, it will be able to avoid $1.10 of its own Chap-Off manufacturing costs per box

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Estimated Production and Sales Units of Chap-Off = 140,000 boxes

Manufacturing cost per box:      Avoidable costs

Direct material              $ 3.70           $0.74 ($3.70 * 20%)

Direct labor                      2.00             0.20 ($2.00 * 10%)

Manufacturing overhead 1.60              0.16 ($1.60 * 10%)

Total cost                      $ 7.30            $1.10

Outside supplier's price for tubes = $1.20 per box

b) Unless there an alternative use for the machine used in making the tubes internally exists, it may not be cost-effective for Silven to buy from the outside supplier.  Alternatively, it should renegotiate a price per box that is less than $1.10 in order to stop making the tubes internally.

interest expense 3,000 debit

   interest payable       3000 credit

 principal   x   rate     x    time

  120,000   x 11%/12   x 3 months = 3,000

We divide the rate by 12 as there is express as annual rate and we need to match with time, which is months.

The entry will recognize interest expense for 3,000

and interest payable for 3,000

My name is Ann [436]

Suppose that you are available to go to work but have not looked for a job for at least the last four weeks because you believe that there​ aren't any jobs available. You would be counted as<u>  </u> <u>discouraged worke</u>r

Explanation:

<u>Suppose that you are available to go to work but have not looked for a job for at least the last four weeks because you believe that there​ aren't any jobs available. You would be counted as</u>

A <u>discouraged worke</u>r is an individual who has given up looking for employment even though they are perfectly eligible to take up a job but to the repeated failure in finding a job  they have then ceased their search for finding an employment.

Discouraged workers have stopped looking for employment opportunities because they feel that their is no job that suits their qualifications

Since they have stopped searching they are not included in the labor force hence when we see the statistics for unemployment these people are not included there also .So they are called <u>Discouraged Workers</u>

<u> The correct formula for calculating the unemployment​ rate</u>

<u>(</u>

<u> D) Neither formula is used to calculate the unemployment rate</u>

The formula for Unemployment rate is

==> U=Unemployed People/Labor force*100
