<h2>The punishment given to copy the brain is very negligible.</h2>

Explanation:

The rule should be in such a manner that,

  • It does not punish the person who has not involved in the act of crime
  • Punishment should be in  a manner that, it gives an opportunity for the criminal to correct himself.

Scenario explained:

  • Based on this idea, for this scenario, I feel like using the product of someone which is patented is crime but the punishment given for copying the product of someone is negligible.
  • So anyone can try to copy, just pay fine if they are caught.
  • So this neither satisfies rule number 1 mentioned above, nor satisfies rule number 2.

4.  The remaining shares of the treasury stock reissued on November 25 is equal to 6,800 - 1,450 = 5,350 shares.

Whispering Winds Corp. just began business and made the following four inventory purchases in June: June 1 147 units $882 June 1
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

the ending inventory using the LIFO method is $1,225

Explanation:

The computation of the value of the inventory using the LIFO method is shown below;

Since there are 196 closing units

So,

= 146 units × $6 + 49 units × $7

= $882 +  $343

= $1,225

The $6 come from

= $882 ÷ 147 units

And, $7 comes from

= $1,372 ÷ 196 units

Hence, the ending inventory using the LIFO method is $1,225
