Answer: B. It potentially results in better products for the customer.

Explanation:

Importation of components for the production of a good might lead to a potentially better product for consumers because the knowledge base of a superior country in manufacturing the said component would be utilized.

One benefit of Globalization is that better products than can be made locally can be sourced from outside countries so that products are better and stronger.

If a company imports components it could be because they are trying to save costs or it could be that they found Superior products than they did at home. Should the latter be the case then there is a chance that they will make better products because of these better components.

Loss of the Gocha mangrove forests has caused coastal erosion, reducing fish populations and requiring the Gocha Fishing Coopera

BigorU [14]

Answer:

D. Mangrove forests tend to increase the commercial fish populations in coastal fishing grounds

Explanation:

From the scenario, we can see that

''Loss of the Gocha mangrove forests has caused coastal erosion, reducing fish populations and requiring the Gocha Fishing Cooperative (GFC) to partially fund dredging and new shore facilities.''

From the above extract of the scenario it is clear that loss of mangrove forests reduces fish population. If the foregoing is true, then reduction in fish population implies reduction in the revenue of the Gocha Fishing Cooperative. Secondly the loss of mangrove forests has not only led to loss of revenue due to less fish but also increase in cost by having to fund dredging

Therefore, based on the fact that loss of mangrove leads to loss of fish and by extension revenue, planting more trees will lead to more fish and more revenue, apart from the fact that the cost of dredging will not have to be incurred leading to greater revenue.

Answer:

$191,000.00

Explanation:

The cash amount of cash collected from customers is the amount of sales revenue in the year 2018 adjusted for changes in accounts receivable balances as shown by the formula below:

cash collected from customers=sales revenue+begining accounts receivable-ending accounts receivable

sales revenue=$202,000

the begining accounts receivable=$16,500

the ending accounts receivable=$27,500

It is expected that cash received would be sales less the increase in accounts receivable

cash collected from customers=$202,000+$16,500-$27,500

cash collected from customers=$191,000.00

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

a) 10,000 free trade credit

b) Costly trade 6.466,67

c) yearly cost 38,800

d) Yes as the total cash outflow to purchase the goods is lower using costly trade

e) The complete amount as it reduces the cashflow needed for the acquisition of the goods

Explanation:

principal x rate x time = interest

Where rate and time should be expressed in the same metric thus, we express the 60 days as portion of a year

500,000 x 0.12 x 60/360 = 10,000 free trade credit

<em><u>costly trade:</u></em>

500,000 x 0.97 = 485,000

485,000 x 0.12 x 40/360 = 6.466,67

cost per year: the cicle repeats every 60 days thus, 6 times per year:

6,466.67 x 6 = 38.800‬

total financial outflow:

with free credit: 500,000

with costly trade: 485,000 + 6,466.67 = 491.466,67‬

As the costly trade generated a lower cash flow it should take this path

Krizun Industries makes heavy construction equipment. The standard for a particular crane calls for 14 direct labor-hours at $16

Sergio [31]

Answer:

14,275= actual hours

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The standard for a particular crane calls for 14 direct labor-hours at $16 per direct labor-hour.

During a recent period, 1,000 cranes were made.

The labor efficiency variance was $4,400 Unfavorable.

To determine the actual hours worked, we need to use the direct labor efficiency variance formula:

Direct labor time (efficiency) variance= (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)*standard rate

-4,400= (14*1,000 - actual hours)*16

-4,400= 224,000 - 16actual hours

228,400/16= actual hours

14,275= actual hours
