Answer:
The correct answers are the following options: A regional sales manager's salary is a direct cost of the regional office in which the sales manager works - A direct cost can be easily and conveniently traced to a specific cost object.
Explanation:
On the one hand, the name of <em>"direct costs"</em> is refered to the ones that would be directly related to a cost object, therefore that these costs are easily recognizable to the person who manages the costs due to the fact that those will be the ones that are strictly referable to the object.
On the other hand, the <em>"indirect costs"</em> are the ones that have the characteristics of being the oppositive of the direct costs. Therefore that these type of costs are the ones that would not be easily referable to a cost object.
Answer:
E) Congressional incumbents
Explanation:
PAC money is directed primarily toward congressional incumbents, and this can easily be verified on the web. For example, both Nancy Pelosi, a democrat, and Brian Fritzpatrick, a republican, are among the top incumbents by number of money received from PACs, thus, party affiliation is not as important as it is incumbent status.
This is probably because incumbents are more likely to win elections, whether in the senate, the house, or even, the presidency.
