Answer:
option A
Explanation: A firm cannot avoid paying taxes on previous profits as these profits were earned before the shutting down period and generally the taxes on profits for current period are paid at a later period. Thus option B is incorrect.
.
Revenue is the total income that a business gets from its normal operations and variable cost is the cost that changes with the level of output. Thus, there will be no revenue and also variable cost. Hence option C is incorrect.
.
Sunk cost are the costs that cannot be recovered and are already been incurred.So a company can avoid its variable cost by shutting down but not its sunk cost. Hence option D is incorrect.
.
Fixed costs are the costs that are independent of the level of output. Therefore, a company after shutting down will not receive revenue but will have to bear fixed cost. Hence option A is correct.
This is a profit, which increases next year's budget.
Answer: $300,000
Explanation:
Total expected costs = cost incurred to date + estimated cost to complete
= 1,200,000 + 3,600,000
= 4,800,000
= 0.25
= 25%
Profit = contract revenue - Total expected costs
= $6,000,000 - 4,800,000
= $1,200,000
Cumulative gross profit = Profit × Percentage of completion
= $1,200,000 × 0.25
= $300,000
Therefore, Red Builders should have recognized profit at the end of year 1 in the amount of $300,000.
Answer:
a. estimate the amount to mitigate high impact and probable issues.
Explanation:
In project management, a contractor can be defined as an individual or organization that temporarily undertakes a project in order to create a unique result, product, and service.
A contingency is an amount of money which is added to the initial or standard cost estimate so as to cover risk exposure and any uncertainty.
When making contingency estimates, the contractor should estimate the amount to mitigate high impact and probable issues.
As a result of uncertainties that are peculiar to everything in life, most especially projects undertaken, it is very important and necessary that the contractor should set aside an amount of money to mitigate or lessen any high impact such as dwindling prices, miscellaneous, faults, repairs and other probable issues that may arise in the process of execution.
Answer:
d.guarantee the company will earn a profit
Explanation:
Internal controls are controls put in place by management to mitigate against identified risk. Risk basically refers to what could go wring in a process. Controls are put in place to mitigate against the risk of error or fraud and do not necessarily prevent the company from making a loss.
Companies make profit or loss based on management's decisions such as where to invest, what time to invest, introduction of a new product, management of cost of sales and operating expenses etc
Internal controls basically consist of policies and procedures that ensure that the company's asset are not misused (fraud), no misrepresentation of revenue (fraud), employees and managers comply with laws and regulations, business information is accurate ( no misrepresentation of records due to error) etc.
Hence Internal control does not consist of policies and procedures that guarantee the company will earn a profit.
The right option is d.
