Explanation:
When I was in school grade 9, I had my first interaction with a robot during a visit to technology expo since then I could not think of anything else but to awe for exploring the fascinating world of robots.
I didn't had much resources to buy tools and components to build robots but still my passion kept me motivated and I found my way to get hands on scrap parts available at the various spots in my locality. Slowly and gradually, I kept learning and building robots and by the time I was in my high school, I had already won 3 major school competitions and received tremendous amount of recognition. Due to my outstanding performance, I was awarded with merit scholarship for the college.
In college, I continued my handwork and kept myself busy in exploring the depth of robotics. I had the pleasure of working on a big project funded by a our college. The project was to build a search and rescue quad-copter. Honestly speaking, it was not easy! I worked day and night tirelessly, and finally after 6 months I successfully built the quad-copter.
My goal is to become an inventor in the field of robotics. Building such robots that can make a difference in our lives and help humanity to grow and thrive. I believe that engineering program at Princeton encourages such passion and vision and would be a great learning platform for me to showcase my talent and skills.
Answer:
$76,100 net operating loss
Explanation:
The computation of the overall company net operating income (loss) is shown below:
= East sales - east Variable costs - east Traceable fixed costs - east Allocated common corporate costs - west Allocated common corporate costs
= $550,000 - $198,000 - $169,500 - $117,500 - $141,100
= -$76,100 loss
Since the west division is eliminated so all the items would be ignored except Allocated common corporate costs
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Generally, net income will be the same under absorption costing and variable costing. However, producing fewer units than units sold will decrease the net income under absorption costing. As whatever the variable cost is under the absorption method, fixed manufacturing overhead remains the same that decreases the gross profit and net income. Under the variable costing, the fixed overhead will be calculated as per the units produced. Therefore, the net income will decrease proportionately.
Answer: The correct answer is d) NOMINAL
Explanation: Nominal interest rate is the interest rate before inflation is taken into account. Nominal interest rate can also be used to the advertised or stated interest rate on a loan, without taking into account any fees or compounding of interest.
It is the contractual interest rate charged by a lender or promised by the borrower.
Money serves as a good store of value except when an economy experiences a period of INFLATION.
