Beck was the general manager of Chilkoot Lumber Co. Haines sold fuel to the company. To persuade Haines to sell on credit, Beck

signed a paper by which he promised to pay any debt the lumber company owed Haines. He signed this paper with his name followed by "general manager." Haines later sued Beck on this promise, and Beck raised the defense that the addition of "general manager" showed that Beck, who was signing on behalf of Chilkoot, was not personally liable and did not intend to be bound by the paper. Was Beck liable on the paper?

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Beck was the general manager of company. By signing the company's document, actually company is liable to pay that amount not individual. The claim that Haines make is incorrect as any liability is supposed to be beared by company. The claim that Beck made is correct. because he wrote general manager which means he is an employee of that company. So, liability falls on company rather than individual.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

$12.14

Explanation:

The computation of the current value of one share of the stock is shown below:

D2 = (1 × 1.25) = $1.25

D3 = (1.25 × 1.25) = $1.5625

Now

Value after year 3 is

= (D3 × Growth rate) ÷ (Required return - Growth rate)

= (($1.5625 × 1.06) ÷ [0.17 - 0.06)]

= $15.05681818

Now

Current value is

= Future dividends × Present value of discounting factor(17%,time period)

= $1 ÷ 1.17 + $1.25 ÷ 1.17^2 + $1.5625 ÷ 1.17^3 + $15.05681818/1.17^3

= $12.14

You want to determine whether there is a lemons problem in the market for​ single-engine airplanes. Can you use any of the follo
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

C. Yes. If repair rates are higher for planes that have been​ resold, this would be an indication of a lemons problem

Explanation:

Lemons problem is an issue of quality of product, asset, investment : due to asymetric information about the respective quality.

Asymetric Information is when one one party in transaction has more knowledge about the quality of product or asset, than the other party.

Second hand goods are an illustration of this case, as seller has more information about the real quality of good or asset than buyer.

Lemon's problem in single engines airplanes : can be analysed by concept of second hand goods 'asymetric information, lemons problem' it. If the 2nd hand resold planes require higher repairs, it indicates that the buyer had asymetric information about bad quality of planes ( the information which seller had), but realisation of bad quality later implies higher repairs.

Flint, Inc. is trying to establish the standard labor cost of a typical oil change. The following data have been collected from
Julli [10]

Answer:

1. 1.875 hours

2. $20.25

3. $37.97

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

1. For Standard direct labor hours per oil change, it is

= (Actual time spent on the oil change) +  (Setup and downtime + Cleanup and rest periods) × Actual time spent on the oil change  

= 1.25 hours + (22% + 28%) × 1.25 hours

= 1.25 hours + 0.625 hours

= 1.875 hours

2. Standard direct labor hourly rate, it is

= (Hourly wage rate) + (Payroll taxes + Fringe Benefits) × hourly wage rate

= $15 + (10% + 25%) × $15

= $15 + $5.25

= $20.25

3. And, the standard direct labor cost per change is

= Standard direct labor hours per oil change × Standard direct labor hourly rate

= 1.875 hours × $20.25

= $37.97

We simply applied the above formulas for each one part
