Nicole is a calendar-year taxpayer who accounts for her business using the cash method. On average, Nicole sends out bills for a

BigorU [14]

Answer:

a) I guess that Nicole bills $12,000 per month, not $512,000.

Assuming that the last time Nicole billed her customers was November, she was able to collect $11,760 before the year ended. I will also assume that the remaining $240 are uncollectible.

If Nicole postpones billing her customers during December, her taxable income as a cash basis taxpayer will decrease by $12,000 x 70% = $8,400

she will be able to save $8,400 x 2% = $168 in current taxes, but she will have to pay them next year anyways.

b) The time value of money should affect Nicole's calculations because she is saving the interests that could be earned by $168 in 1 year. We are not given any specific interest rate but we could use 6% as an example. Nicole will gain $168 x 6% = $10.08

But she will also lose potential interests earned on the $8,400 that she billed later. Using the same interest rate, 6%, she will lose $8,400 x 6% x 1/12 (only 1 month) = $42.

That means that the net result from this = $10.08 - $42 = -$31.92.

As you can see, Nicole is losing money. The higher the interest rate, the more money she will lose.

c) The risk of increasing uncollectible accounts will always exist. Nicole already has around 2% of uncollectible accounts, and combining two bills at one time might lead to a higher percentage of uncollectible accounts. Of course, this depends on her clients, but the risk will increase a little bit or a lot, but it will increase.

Arlecino [84]

Correct question: Making counterfeit copies of Gucci purses, Tommy Hilfiger sportswear, and other international brands

is pervasive in China because laws protecting intellectual property are unclear and sporadically enforced. Even when sanctions are applied, sanctions are minimal, typically consisting of confiscation, a warning, a public apology, and perhaps a fine. Moreover, copying enjoys a long tradition in China and does not carry a stigma. A business introducing a product into China needs to know that its ___________ may lead to trademark infringements.

A. religious precepts

B. antecedent states

C. moral idealism

D. societal culture and norms

E. utilitarianism

Answer:

D, societal culture and norms.

Explanation:

because copying doesn't exactly have a law forbiding it but rather that it is seen as a form of art in china, the societal culture and norms of china makes it a normal for any new business coming into the country to resigns its fate to having copies of its products flooding the chinese market as soon as possible and such company can't sue for intellectual or copyright infringements.

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

All net income, less all dividends, since the company began operations.

Explanation:

Retained Earnings are the retained profits that the company keeps with itself, for meeting any case of emergency or for growing company and thus, meeting the growing expenses.

Each year when company earns profits and then, it distributes its profits in the form of dividends, the balance remaining after paying the dividends is added to retained earnings.

Thus, the entire balance of these kind of profits not paid anywhere else and also not utilized is called retained earnings.
