Answer:

This is a very unlikely situation, since the plant must be really large and the river probably didn't carry a lot of water in the first place. But even if this was possible, it would be illegal for a company to use 100% of the natural resources available. No law or regulation (municipal, state or federal) would allow such thing to happen and assuming it got to court, the court would rule against the company.

Since you need an environmental impact report before you start building a factory, then it would be unlikely that the factory or plant was legally authorized to operate in the first place. The only option is that they built a dam and that is highly regulated.

Paul [167]

Answer:

Duress/Coercion/Compulsion

Explanation:

Duress or Coercion or Compulsion: This type of defense involves someone else threatening to use force or violence to get you to do something against your better judgment. Essentially, it means you were forced to commit a crime. In this case, Reuben want to entangle the elderly lady into the crime of bank heist by threatening to shoot her husband.

For a defense of Duress/Coercion/Compulsion: the person must be forced to commit the offence. The person under duress (illegal coercion usually through being threatened or the use of violence) must be present when the offence is committed. The person must believe that the threat will be carried out.

NARA [144]

Answer:

Using Traditional allocation method

Allocation rate per unit

=<u> Budgeted overhead</u>

  Budgeted direct labour hours

Brass

Overhead allocation rate

= <u>$47,500</u>

  700 hours

=  $67.86 per direct labour hour

Gold

= <u>$47,500</u>

   1,200 hours

=  $39.58 per direct labour hour

Using activity-based costing

Brass

Allocation rate for material cost pool                                                                                                                                                  

= <u>$12,500</u>

   400

=  $31.25 per material moved

Gold

Allocation rate for material cost pool

= <u>$12,500</u>

   100    

= $125 per material moved

Brass

Allocation rate for machine set-up pool

= <u>$35,000</u>

  400

= $87.50

Gold

Allocation rate for machine set-up pool  

= <u>$35,000</u>

   600

= $58.33                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                

Explanation:

Using traditional allocation method, the overheads for material cost pool and machine set-up pool will be added. The overhead allocation rate per unit is the division of total overhead by the direct labour hours for each product.        

Using activity-based costing, the material cost pool overhead  will be divided by the material moved for each product in order to obtain allocation rate for each product.                                                                                                                                                                

The allocation rate for machine set-up pool is obtained by dividing the machine set-up overhead by the number of machine set-up for each              product.

You want to create a portfolio equally as risky as the market, and you have $500,000 to invest. Information about the possible i
azamat

Answer:

Investment in stock C is $122450.3311 rounded off to $122450.33

Explanation:

A portfolio which is equally as risky as market should have a beta equal to the beta of the market as beta is a measure of the riskiness. The beta of market is always equal to 1. The formula for beta of a portfolio is as follows:

Portfolio beta = wA * Beta A + wB * Beta B + ... + wN * Beta N

Where w represents the weight of each stock in the portfolio.

Let investment in stock C be x

1 = 146000/500000 * 0.91 + 134000/500000 * 1.36 + x/500000 * 1.51

1 = 0.26572  +  0.36448 + 1.51x / 500000

1 - 0.6302 = 1.51x / 500000

0.3698 * 500000 = 1.51x

1844900 / 1.51 = x

x = $122450.3311 rounded off to $122450.33
