The answer is primary reinforcement as to secondary reinforcement. Primary reinforcers are biological. Principal examples are food, beverage, and desire. But, most human reinforcers are secondary, or conditioned. Examples comprise money, grades in schools, and tokens. Secondary reinforcers acquire their power through a history of link with primary reinforcers or other secondary reinforcers. For instance, if I said to you that dollars were no longer accepted to be used as cash, then dollars would miss their control as a secondary reinforcer.

Nataly [62]

Answer:

YTM = 8.93%

YTC = 8.47%

Explanation:

$P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTC/2)^{-2t} }{YTC/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTC/2)^{2t}}$

The first part is the present value of the coupon payment until the bond is called.

The second is the present value of the called amount

P = market price value = 1,200

C = annual coupon payment = 1,000 x 12% 120

C/2 = 60

CP = called value = 1,060

t = time = 6 years

$P = 60 \times\frac{1-(1+YTC/2)^{-2\times 6} }{YTC/2} + \frac{1,060}{(1+YTC/2)^{2\times 6}}$

Using Financial calculator we get the YTC

8.467835879%

$P = 60 \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2\times 10} }{YTM/2} + \frac{1,000}{(1+YTM/2)^{2\times 10}}$

The first part is the present value of the coupon payment until manurity

The second is the present value of the redeem value at maturity

P = market price value = 1,200

C = coupon payment = 1,000 x 12%/2 = 60

C/2 = 60

F = face value = 1,060

t = time = 10 years

Using Financial calculator we get the YTM

8.9337714%

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

C. The FIFO method computes equivalent units based only on production activity in the current period, ignoring the percentage of completion in beginning Work in Process inventory.

Explanation:

THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW

Which of the following statements is most accurate?

A. In process costing, estimating the degree of completion of units is usually more accurate for conversion costs than for direct materials.

B. The FIFO method includes the cost of the beginning Work in Process inventory account in calculating cost per equivalent units.

C. The FIFO method computes equivalent units based only on production activity in the current period, ignoring the percentage of completion in beginning Work in Process inventory.

D. The FIFO method of calculating equivalent units of production merges the work and the costs of the beginning inventory with the work and the costs done during the current period.

E. It is not possible for there to be a significant difference between the cost of completed units between the weighted average and the FIFO methods.

EXPLANATION

FIFO method which is known as

(First In, First Out) can be regarded as an asset-management as well as valuation method , this method follows a process whereby any assets that is first produced or acquired are the asset that are sold first or first disposed. For the purposes of tax, FIFO gives assumption that assets that has oldest costs are usually entered into cost of goods sold I.e (COGS) income statements. Fifo can be calculated by finding the cost of oldest inventory, then multiply it by the amount of inventory sold.

It should be noted that The FIFO method computes equivalent units based only on production activity in the current period, ignoring the percentage of completion in beginning Work in Process inventory

A machine which cost $400,000 is acquired on January 1, 2017. Its estimated salvage value is $100,000 and its expected life is f

Soloha48 [4]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the depreciation expense for 2017 and 2018 under the following methods

a. Straight-line method

= (Purchase cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated life)

= ($400,000 - $100,000) ÷ (5 years)

= $60,000

Since the depreciation expense under this method would remain the same for the remaining useful life

So for 2017 and 2018, the depreciation expense i.e. $60,000 would be charged every year.

b. Under the sum-of-the-year-digits method

For 2017,

= ($400,000 - $100,000) × 5 years ÷ ( 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1)

= $300,000 × 5 years ÷ 15 years

= $100,000

For 2018, the book value is

= $400,000 - $100,000

The $100,000 is the depreciation expense of 2017 year

= $300,000 × 4 ÷ 15

= $80,000
