Answer:

The principle in Law 'Nemo dat quod non habet' states that an individual connot give what he does not have

Indeed Tom can rescind the contract with Matthew as he possesses voidable title to the balls

Explanation:

Until consideration has moved from Matthew to Tom the validity of the agreement/Contract remains inconclusive.

Considering his Account is not funded means he has no valid title to the Balls, he is merely in possession of the Balls but not the Owner.

Tom can sue demanding a return of the Balls irrespective of Matthew having sold them to Aaron.

Another illustration could be given of a thief who sells off a property. Inspite of the Buyer being unaware, because the thief has a voidable title it makes the transaction invalid.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

a. $9,338

b. 0.363

Explanation:

a. Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost

Where Sales = $25,700

Variable Cost = Food & Packaging + Payroll + 40% x General, Selling and Administrative expenses

V.C. = 8,982 + 6,500 + 40% * 3,700

V.C = 8,982 + 6,500 + 1,480

= $16,362

Therefore, Contribution Margin  = Sales - Variable Cost  

= $25,700 - $16,362

=$9,338

b. McDonald's contribution margin ratio  = Contribution Margin / Sales

= $9,338 / $25,700

= 0.363

Kuzio Corporation produces and sells a single product. Data concerning that product appear below: Per Unit Percent of Sales Sell
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

<em>Net operating income  $8,950</em>

Explanation:

<em>The overall impact on the net operating income is the amount of increase in contribution from the addtional sales less the increase in monthly advertising budget. </em>

<em>                                                          $</em>

Contribution = ($75 × 190) =     14,250

Fixed cost - advertising       <u>    ( 5,300)   </u>    

Net operating income          <u>     8950</u>

Please, note that the fixed costs of $194,000 per month are not relevant for this decision. Simply because they would be incurred either way and that are not completely traceable to the increase sales.

Lump-sum taxes are rarely used in the real world because:_______________
labwork [276]

Answer:

c. lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because they take the same amount of money from both poor and rich.

Explanation:

To understand this question, you have to first understand what lump-sum taxes are.

Lump-sum taxes are a system of taxes where everybody pays the same amount of tax no matter their economic status, or their actions. Basically, lump-sum taxes take the same amount of money from the rich and the poor, hugely increasing the burden on the poor and lessening that of the rich.

As an example, a lump-sum tax of $100 would require everybody to pay $100. To a person earning, say $120, that would be a huge hit, and be a huge burden on his normal life. However, to a rich person who earns, say, $10000, that would be much more easier for the rich person.

Hence, lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because of the unfair advantage the rich have over the poor in tax-paying.

Hope this helped!
