Option A. The U.S. Constitution.

Explanation:

The reason is that the US constitution provides the basic framework for the laws to be formulated and passed both in the US National Assembly and the Senate. The laws cannot be formulated if the US constitution doesn't allows the passing of the law which means that the constitution must be amended first. When the slavery was to be eliminated in 1865, the first problem was that passing the elimination of slavery law was inconflict with the US constitution. So the constitution was amended before passing the law to eliminate the conflict.

In the nutshell, every law originates because of different reasons like Technological reasons, Social reasons, Cultural reason, etc) but the basis remains the same which is US constitution which is the basic framework for passing the law.

Answer:

A detailed list of the accounts that make up the five financial statement elements.

Explanation:

The company's chart of accounts is the listing of all the accounts that the company has included as part of the five financial statement elements during a specific period of time.

The five financial statement elements are: assets, liabilities, equity (part of the balance sheet), expenses and revenues (part of the income statement).

Examples of accounts that can be part of a firm's chart of accounts are: land (asset), cash (asset), notes payable (liabilities), outstanding stock (equity), operating expenses (expenses), and sales revenue (revenues).

The chart of accounts can differ greatly from company to company simply because companies engage in vastly different economic activities.

Material Cost 5000 multiply 2.7 -13500

Labor Cost 5000 multiply 1.2 -6000

Manufacturing Cost 5000 multiply 1.2 -6000

Shipping and Handling 5000 multiply 0.3 -1500

Sales Commission 0

Contribution Margin 6000

Should be accepted as it will increase profitability by $6000

Material Cost 60000 multiply 2.7 162000

Labor Cost 60000 multiply1.2 72000

Manufacturing Cost 60000*1.2 72000

Prod Supervisor Salary 72000 72000
