Answer:

It is Franchising (B)

Explanation:

Option (A) False.

Licensing is  contractual  transaction  where  the  company (licensor) offers  some  proprietary  assets   to  foreign company (licensee) in exchange for royalty fees .

Licensing  is considered a low involvement and low-control entry strategy, since it does not necessarily entail equity participation, and because control over operations and strategy is granted to the licensee in exchange for a lump-sum payment,   and  a  commitment  to  abide  by  any  terms  set out  in  the  licensing  contract.

Option (B) True.

A franchise agreement is a contractual arrangement between two independent firms, whereby the franchisee pays the  franchisor  for  the  right  to  sell  the  franchisor's  product  and/or  the  right  to  use  the  franchisor's  trademark  at  a given place and for a certain period  of time.

Franchisors  typically   offer   managerial  assistance and exercises  substantial  control  over the franchisee.

Option (C) False

Exporting- here the  company  becomes  directly  involved  in  marketing  its  products  in  foreign  markets.  Although  the associated cost  and  risks  are  greater,  so are the profits too ,all things being equal.

Option (D) False

This is when two or more independent companies create a separate entity but still still maintain their former entity . As a penetration strategy, it does not only reduced risks but also decreases individual involvement.

It can also be used to eliminate risk of entry barriers for a new entrant in an existing market.

How much of the following is taxable? a. Cheline, an actress, received a $6,400 gift bag for attending the Academy Awards Ceremo
Bingel [31]

Answer:

A. $6,400

B. $240

C. $1,000,000

D. $30,000

Explanation:

Requirement A, C, and D:

Prizes and awards are taxable income for a taxpayer. Any awards or prizes won from the lottery or television should be added to the income. Therefore, the Winning lottery is a taxable income for Kerry, $1,000,000. Again, Receiving the award for scientific research is also taxable income for Deborah, $30,000.

The winning award for accomplishments is also a taxable income. So, receiving a $6,400 worth gift bag is a taxable income for Cheline.

Requirement B:

There is an exception if the award is for tangible property and a long-years of accomplishment. At that time, the taxpayers will be excluded from some part of the necessary amounts to be paid as tax. If it is not a qualified award, the exclusion will be $400. If it is qualified, the tax exclusion is 1,600. Since Jon received a gold watch for 25 years of service and the gift is not qualified, he has to pay tax for $(660 - 400) = $240.
