Answer: c. Provide safeguards against the withdrawal of assets by the owners of the bankrupt firm and allow insolvent debtors to discharge all of their obligations and to start over unhampered by a burden of prior debt.

Explanation:

When a person or entity files for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, a trustee is appointed that will sell off the assets of the entity to enable repayment of debt to the creditors. As such, the entity will not be allowed to touch the assets thereby providing safeguards against their withdrawals by same.

After all assets are sold, any remaining debt is forgiven so that the debtor owes no more debt. This will then given them a chance to start over without having to worry about the previous debts they accumulated.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

b. 16% defectives

Explanation:

Let the number of units shipped be N

Let the defect rate be y%

Cost of replacing defectives once shipped = (y/100)×N× 2.5  ........equation (1)

Cost of 100% inspection = N × 0.4 .........equation (2)

At the indifference point, both costs, that is the replacement cost and inspection cost are equal. Therefore, we make both equations (1) and (2) equal.

N × 0.4 = (y/100)×N× 2.5

100 × 0.4 = y ×2.5

y = 40/2.5 = 16

She is indifferent at 16% defectives

Norma-Jean [14]

<em>The payment terms 2/10, n/30 implies that if the Company pays within te next 10 days of purchase, it will receive a discount of 2% of the net invoice amount and that the latest date for the settlement of bill is within the next 30 days of purchase. </em>

The cost of the inventory would be the sum of the next purchase cost , shipping charges, storage fees and insurance fee

Net purchase cost net of discount =  2,000 - 40= 1,960

Cost of inventory = $2,410
