Answer:

b. Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1.

Explanation:

The Pregnancy Discrimination Act "prohibits sex discrimination on the basis of pregnancy." According to the act, "if an employee is temporarily unable to perform her job due to pregnancy, the employer must treat her the same as any other temporarily disabled employee".

Therefore, since Jean claims she cannot lift 90-pound boxes due to her pregnancy, she should be protected by this act.

Benjamin Company had the following results of operations for the past year:Sales (16,000 units at $10.25) $164,000Direct materia
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Profit will increase by 5,975

Explanation:

From past year we can see that total variable cost will be:

Direct Material+Direct Labor+Variable Over head.

Total Variable Cost =100,000+20% of 20,000

Total Variable costs = 100,000+4000= 104,000

Per Unit Variable cost = Total Variable cost/Total Unit Produced

Per Unit Variable Cost = 104,000/16,000 = 6.5

If Benjamin accepts the offer results will be:

Sale (4,500*8.05) 36,225

Variable Cost (4,500*6.5) (29,250)

Incremental Fixed cost (650)

Incremental admin

and selling cost (350)

Operating Income 5,975

Rylan Corporation received an offer from an exporter for 25,000 units of product at $16 per unit. The acceptance of the offer wi
hammer [34]

Answer: a.$275,000

Explanation:

Let us assume local production sales of 0 for simplicity of analysis.

At 0 there will be no Variable Costs and no fixed costs because they are dependant on the amount of units produced.

If then Rylan Corporation receives 25,000 units at $16 per unit this will change the Variable costs as it will have to incorporate the new units.

The question however says that normal production continues. This means that Fixed costs do not change. That means fixed costs remain at $0.

That means the only change will be the Variable costs of selling 25,000 units.

At a rate of $11 per unit we then have,

= 11 * 25,000

= $275,000

The costs have increased by $275,000 from 0 which means that $275,000 is the Incremental cost.

Note that Fixed and Variable costs of 0 are improbable and we're only used for simpler analysis. Feel free to try the question with other number of units for your own practice. You will arrive at the same answer regardless.

worty [1.4K]

Answer: Arbitrator

           

Explanation: In simple words, arbitrator refers to an individual who is officially appointed by the court to settle dispute between two parties. Both the parties have to agree to the decision made by the arbitrator and it is legally enforceable in the court as well.  

Arbitration is a mechanism during which a conflict is settled by a neutral arbitrator whose judgment has been decided or declared by the respondents to the conflict will be definitive and binding. Testing and challenges of arbitration judgments are minimal.

Arbitration is regularly used in customer and employ ability issues in some nations such as United States, in which arbitration may be required by employment terms or legal agreements which can include an exemption of the chance to bring an allegation.
