Answer: d.You would find less expensive designer for the store’s advertising posters.

Explanation:

Going by the options give, the best option would be D. This is because option A talks about location which is a fixed cost while b talks about the business insurance policy which is also a fixed cost. Option C is about the internet service provider which is also another fixed cost.

Option D however is not a fixed cost as it relates to advertising. Advertising is a variable cost and so in obeying the directive from the boss, this is the cost that would need to be reduced by finding a less expensive designer.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

Net Cash Flows from operating activities is $68.5 million.

Explanation:

The indirect Method would be used here because all we will find the cash expenses and revenues that were converted into within the year and are reported in the income statement by calculating the increase and decrease in the current assets and current liabilities. Here we will also eliminate the non cash expense effects by adding them back.

The net cash flows from operating activities can be calculated using the following method:

                                                                 Millions

1. Net Income                                                65

<u>Add Non Cash Deductions</u>

2. Depreciation                                             5.5

3. Loss on sale of Equipment                       1.5

<u>Add / (Less) the increase or </u>

<u>decrease in current Assets or </u>

<u>liabilities</u>

4. Increase in Trade Receivables                (2.5)

5. Increase in Trade Payables                      3.5

6. Increase in inventory                               <u> (4.5) </u>

Net Cash Flows from operating activities $68.5

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Solution :

Expected sales = current sales x (1 + projected sale next year increase)

                         = 5,700 x (1 + 15%)

                         = $ 6555

Expected cost = current cost x (1 + projected sale next year increase)

                       = 4200 x (1 + 15%)

                       = $ 4830

Taxable income = 1500 x ( 1 + 15%)

                           = $ 1725

Taxes (34%)  = 510 x (1+15%)

                     = $ 586.5

Net income = sales - cost - taxes

                   = 6555 - 4830 - 586.5

                   = $ 1138.5

Calculation of total asset :

Current asset = 3,900 x 1.15

                      = $ 4485

Fixed asset   = 8100 x 1.15

                      = $ 9315

Total asset = 4485 + 9315

                  = $ 13800

Calculation of total liabilities

Current liabilities = 2200 x 1.15

                            = $ 2530

Long term debt = $ 3,750

Equity = $ 6050 + (1138.5 x 0.50 )

          = $ 7189

Total liabilities  = $ 2530 + $ 3,750 + $ 7189

                          = $ 13, 469

Therefore the external financial needed is = $ 13800 - $ 13, 469

                                                                       = $ 331

Japan isolated itself for more than 300 years from the mid 1500s to the mid 1800s. what was the effect of this isolation
xxMikexx [17]
Japan was isolated during the period of Tokugawa Shogunate ( from the mid 1500s to the mid 1800s ). The reasons why the Shoguns wanted to isolate country from the rest of the world are: foreign influences and the spread of Christianity.
The effects of the isolation:
- The influence of the foreigners was under the control.
- Christianity was forbidden.
- The growth of large centers into cities. The cities were easier to defend, but they relied on the rural communities.
- The wealth of country was increasing.
- China and Korea were allowed limited access.
- The Duch were allowed to trade in certain ports.
