Answer:

BMI = 31.18 kg/m²

According to BMI, this patient is diagnosed as Obese.

Explanation:

BMI known as body mass index is taken from a person height and weight. BMI is a person's weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters. BMI is usually expressed in kg/m².

Mathematically ,

BMI = weight(kg)/height(m²)

we have to convert the weight and the height to the required units.

converting pounds to kg

2.2 pounds = 1 kilogram

210 pounds = ?

cross multiply

210/2.2 = 95.50 kilograms

converting foot to inches and to meter.

1 foot = 12 inches

5 foot = ?

12 × 5 = 60 inches

60 inches + 9 inches = 69 inches

1 inches = 0.0254 meters

69 inches = ?

69 × 0.0254 = 1.7526  meters

using the formula

BMI = weight(kg)/height(m²)

BMI = 95.50/(1.75)²

BMI = 95.50/3.0625   kg/m²

BMI = 31.1836734694  kg/m²

BMI = 31.18 kg/m²

Which of these products would be most likely to have dependent demand? televisions refrigerators automobiles automobile engines
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

\boxed{\bold{Automobile \ Engines}}

Explanation:

➤ Automobile engines would be most likely to have dependent demand

When creating a new car, customers are going to want an engine in their car. That is why it is a "department demand." It is a demand that an automobile must have an engine when you are creating / working in the automobile department. You can't build an automobile without an engine, and that is why it is a demand to have one.

Based on the information, it can be deduced that it's an indication of the uncertainty that exists in the Vietnamese cultural model.

From the complete information, Vietnam has low points in the avoidance index. This implies that they're less associated with their cultural roots and don't have concern for hiring white people.

Some of the solutions that can be applied for training the workers include providing them with ethical and language-based training and also encourage a team culture.

You have been recently hired as an assistant controller for XYZ Industries, a large, publically held manufacturing company. Your
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

XYZ

a. The Effect on Income Before Taxes of the Change of Ageing Analysis:

The Income before Taxes would be $45,000 ($180,000 - $20,000) -   ($135,000 - 20,000) more than the income that should have been reported.  Assuming the Income Taxes were to be based on the increased income figure, XYZ would have an increased tax liability by say $18,000 (45,000 x 40%).  This reduces the Retained Earnings (or Stockholders Equity) by $18,000.  The company would in actual fact, be reporting a net income of $27,000 more than it should have reported.  This is very deceptive for all those who would be using the reported financial statement in making their decisions.  Unfortunately, we would have showed the affected customer that we are dubious in our business practise, further jeopardizing the chance of full recovery of the debt.  This is apart from taking into consideration the type of customer that would be ready to accept a revised invoice that was formerly past due.

b.  The ethical dilemma is doing the right thing according to Rights Theory.  We cannot say we have adhered to a set of rules (the U.S GAAP or the IFRS) when in fact we are violating an important rule of fair presentation of the elements of the financial statement.

I would try to convince the controller to rescind his suggestion and follow the rules.  We understand that making allowance for uncollectibles is an estimate based on judgement.  However, since we have established the basis and even stated it in the notes to the financial statements, I think that we should follow through.

Explanation:

The year's Uncollectible Expense should be $160,000 ($180,000 - $20,000).  If the allowance for the year were to be adjusted from $180,000 to $135,000, it means that the Uncollectible Expense would then be $115,000 ($135,000 - $20,000).  We will be under-reporting the Uncollectible Expense by a difference of $45,000 ($160,000 - $115,000), thereby boosting the net income before tax by $45,000.
