Answer: 21

Explanation:

From the question, we are told that CodeDesk Inc matches programmers with freelance jobs and that it has 35 employees who staff its online chat room and also receives, on average, 250 chat requests per hour, and that the average chat session takes 5 minutes to complete.

To get the number of chat sessions that are active will be:

= (5 minutes × 250)/60 minutes

= 20.83

= 21 approximately

It should be noted that 60 minutes makes 1 hour which was the reason the values were divided by 60

Katie Kwasi’s utility function is U(x1, x2) = 2(ln x1) + x2. Given her current income and the current relative prices, she consu
aniked [119]

Answer:

Katie Kwasi's Utility Function

The units of x1 that she will consume after the change in income is:

= 40 units of x1

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Katie Kwasi’s utility function, U(x1, x2) = 2(ln x1) + x2

Current consumption = 10 units of x1 and 15 units of x2

When her income doubles, with prices staying constant, Katie will consume:

= 2(2 * 10 of x1) + 15 of x2

= 40 units of x1 + 15 units of x2

Therefore, she will consume 40 units of x1 and 15 units of x2

b) The above function expresses mathematically Katie's utility to be a function of the units of x1 and x2 that she can consume, given her income constraint.  If her income doubles, Katie will consume double units of x1 and the same units of x2 as she was consuming before the change in income.

Mar. 17 Received $275 from Shawn McNeely and wrote off the remainder owed of $1,000 as uncollectible.
kogti [31]

Answer: Please see the required journals below:

Mar. 17:

Debit Allowance for doubtful accounts $1,000

Credit Accounts receivable $1,000

July 29:

Debit Cash $1,000

Credit Bad debt recovery (income statement) $1,000

Explanation: On March 17, when $275 was received from Shawn and the remaining balance of $1,000 was written off, the allowance for doubtful accounts has to be debited since the company adopts the allowance method of accounting for uncollectible receivables. Note that the allowance account would have the required buffer to take care of this debit. Similarly, when the recovery was made, cash would be debited then the credit would default to income statement.

Pani-rosa [81]

The question is incomplete as the figures are missing. The complete question is,

Smiley Corporation sold equipment costing $72, 000 with $66, 000 of accumulated depreciation for $10, 000 cash. Which of the following journal entries should be prepared?

A. debit Cash for $10, 000, credit Equipment for $6000 and credit Gain on Sale of Equipment for $4000

B. debit Cash for $10, 000, debit Accumulated Depreciation - Equipment for $66, 000, credit Equipment for $72000 and credit Gain on Sale of Equipment for $4000

C. debit Cash for $10, 000 and credit Gain on Sale of Equipment for $10, 000

D. debit Accumulated Depreciation - Equipment for $66, 000 and credit Equipment for $66, 000

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

To calculate the gain or loss on disposal of the equipment, we first need to determine the book value of the equipment on the date of sale.

Net Book Value = Cost - Accumulated depreciation

Net Book value = 72000 - 66000   = $6000

The gain/(loss) on disposal = Sales Proceeds - Net Book value

The gain/(loss) on disposal = 10000 - 6000 = $4000 Gain

The entry to record this transaction will be,

Cash                                                              $10000 Dr

Accumulated depreciation - Equipment     $66000 Dr

          Equipment                                                   $72000 Cr

          Gain on sale-Equipment                             $4000 Cr

According to Larry Marder, the president of the McFarlane Companies, the company has changed and morphed and grown over the year
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Unrelated Diversification

Explanation:

The reason is that the company has entered in a number of product offering that are unrelated to each other. This means the company has subtantially reduced its industry risk by managing a portfolio of products that are different from each other from industry perspective. This is an example of unrelated diversification because comics are unrelated to sports figures, music videos and motion pictures.
