Answer:
$48 million
Explanation:
In this scenario, we compare the values between book value including goodwill and the fair value of machinery, the difference would be the loss on impairment of the asset

Answer: Political Distance
Explanation:
Political distance refers to a difference in opinion and policies as well as relations that countries have amongst themselves. In this scenario, this is the most likely bone of contention that would prevent Macmillan Toys from expanding into Rusalka.
This is because land disputes fall under political distance and can get very serious. So serious in fact that nations have gone to war over such disputes with the latest being Azerbaijan and Armenia. Macmillan Toys may therefore find it difficult to expand into the country due to this land dispute.
Answer:
(A) Current period productivity= 4 units/hr
Previous period productivity= 3.833units/hr
(B) increase in productivity by 4.356 percent
Explanation:
A manager checkedthe rate of production and found out that a worker produced 160 units while working for 40 hours
In the previous week the same worker produced 138 units while working for 36 hours
(A) The current period productivity can be calculated as follows
= 160 units/40 hours
= 4 units/hr
The previous period productivity can be calculated as follows
= 138 units / 36 hours
= 3.833 units/hr
(B) The productivity growth can be calculated as follows
= current period productivity - previous period productivity / previous period productivity
= 4-3.833/3.833
= 0.167/3.833
= 0.04356 × 100
= 4.356 percent
Hence there was an increase in workers productivity by 4.356 percent
The best answer for this question would be A. :)
