Answer:

The correct answer is b) a Ponzi scheme.

Explanation:

The Ponzi Scheme is a fraudulent investment operation that involves paying investors interest obtained from the money of new investors (and not from the generation of genuine profits). It is a pyramidal system, in which the only way to share benefits requires that participants recommend and capture (refer) to more clients with the objective that new participants produce benefits to primary participants.

This system does not invest in financial or other instruments, it only redistributes money from some investors to others, so the system works only if the number of investors in the pyramid continually grows; once people stop entering the "business", the scammer is prevented from fulfilling his promise and the pyramid collapses

scoray [572]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is $36,000.

Explanation:

Given information  -

Units anticipated to be produced - 300,000 units

Variable cost - $150,000

Fixed cost - $600,000

Beginning inventory - 5000 units

Ending inventory  - 7000 units

Income under absorption costing - $40,000

Now under the absorption costing, rate of fixed overhead cost per unit -

Fixed cost / Number of units produced

= $600,000 / 300,000

= $2

In April ( under absorption costing ), the amount of fixed manufacturing overhead cost that was still embedded in ending inventory but were not expense -  

Fixed overhead rate per unit x number of units produced but not sold

= $2 x 2000 ( 7000 units - 5000 units )

= $4000

So when we calculate the operating cost under variable costing this fixed overhead cost wold be subtracted from total income -

$40,000 - $4000

= $36,000 .
