Answer:

Option D Showing the absence of privity of contract between it and the consumer.

Explanation:

The reason is that privity of contract says that the party of the contract are only allowable to sue each other which in other words can enforce the other to fulfill his requirements that were agreed while forming contract. So the right answer is option D because it is not related to the negligence claim.

The duty of care that the company owes towards its product's users includes using appropriate production process so that the customer will not be injured, placing the caution and warning labels so that the person can save him from the injury and the company has used components that will not harm the user of the product.

So all the options are correct except option D.

Write a paragraph explaining what kind of assessment works best for you to really be able to show what you know. (Consider stand
ozzi

Answer:

In my experience, essays work best for me to be able to show what I know. I feel that they are more effective than taking, say, a standardized test for example. This is because they are often multiple choice, and I find myself sometimes guessing rather than doing the intended work. In an essay, I have no option other than to type/write out what I know with little-to-no guesswork, making writing out an essay a superior option when it comes to displaying my knowledge on a topic. My preferred learning style is of the visual sort, and that means I learn best by taking notes, seeing examples, using charts and diagrams, etcetera. These skills influence my success on many different types of assessments, including essay writing, test taking, and project making. I am able to visually take notes on the topic at hand, often with examples, which, in my experience, greatly influences my success on these different types of assessments.

stellarik [79]

Answer:

Winslow Inc.

a. No. I do not agree with management's decision and conclusions.  Eliminating the running shoes line increased the company-wide loss to $112,600 from a profit of $7,900.

b. Variable Costing Income Statements:

1                                   Cross Training  Golf Shoes  Running Shoes  Total

2 Revenues                      $850,000     $700,000    $635,000  $2,185,000

3 Variable costs:

Cost of goods sold             284,500       248,400      298,500       831,400

Selling and administrative  293,100        175,500       216,000      684,600                      

Total                                    577,600       423,900       514,500    1,516,000

4 Gross profit                   $272,400     $276,100     $120,500   $669,000

5 Fixed costs:

Cost of goods sold             128,500         90,300       120,500      339,300

Selling & administrative      95,900          82,400       143,500       321,800

Total                                   224,400        172,700      264,000        661,100

6 Income (Loss) from       $48,000      $103,400    $(143,500)       $7,900

c. Eliminating the line only eliminated the variable costs of goods sold and selling and administrative expenses.  The fixed costs were not changed with the elimination.  Therefore, eliminating the running shoes line increased the company-wide loss to $112,600 from a profit of $7,900.
