1 answer:
patriot [66]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:  The probabilities of winning a contract are

P(A) = \frac{28}{36}  

P(B) = \frac{7}{36}  

P(C) = \frac{1}{36}


Let the Probability of C winning the contract - P(C) be 'X'

Then,

Probability of B winning the contract - P(B) will be '7X'     and

Probability of A winning the contract - P(A) will be \mathbf{P(A) = 4 * P(B) = 4*7X = 28X}

Since the total of all the probabilities is 1,

\mathbf{P(A) + P(B) + P(C) =1}

\mathbf{28X + 7X + X =1}

\mathbf{36X =1}

\mathbf{X =\frac{1}{36}}

So,

P(A) = \frac{28}{36}

P(B) = \frac{7}{36}

P(C) = \frac{1}{36}

Ilya [14]

Answer: D. Recognize the loss in the current period rather than over the remaining term of the engagement

Explanation:

A fixed rate contract is the contract whereby the payment amount isn't dependent on the resources or the time that were used.

Since there's evidence that a fixed-rate contract is over budget and will generate a loss for the firm, the manager should recognize the loss in the current period rather than over the remaining term of the engagement.

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Corporation Q, a calendar year taxpayer, has incurred the following Section 1231 net gains and losses since its formation in 201
sp2606 [1]

Answer: $4,000 is ordinary income. No Capital gain

Explanation:

In 2017 and 2018, total Section 1231 losses are:

= 3,300 + 3,100

= $6,400

The Section 1231 gain in 2019 falls below the combined losses from the previous years of 2017 and 2018 so will not be counted as a capital gain as those losses are not yet being recaptured.

The entire $4,000 is therefore ordinary income.
