Answer: Yes

Explanation:

The $785,000 was material because it meets both the quantitative and qualitative factors for materiality. Quantitatively, it is more than 10% of the net income of the company ($7.7million) and qualitatively, it showed a relaxed attitude of management towards accounting misstatements.

Some factors other than quantitative considerations that can be used to determine the materiality of the amount in question are:

  • Effect on changing loss to profit or profit into loss .
  • Effect of management’s compensation .
  • Effect on the public/shareholders/share prices .
  • Possibility of fraud or conflict of interest .
  • Attitude of management to accounting misstatements .

In this scenario, Blue Tech Inc.'s failure can be best attributed to <u>"Time compression diseconomies."</u>


We accept time compression diseconomies where the snappier a firm builds up the asset, the higher the improvement cost. We demonstrate that time compression diseconomies normally offer ascent to asset heterogeneity and henceforth upper hand in that one firm builds up the asset quicker than the other. We evaluate the supportability of the upper hand, determine conditions  

under which the asset is "incomparable" and demonstrate that firm benefits are nonmonotonic in the degree of time compression  diseconomies.

Vincent operates a scenic tour business in Boston. He has one bus which can fit 50 people per tour and each tour lasts 2 hours.
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

There is some information missing, and when I looked for it I found similar questions but the demand was already given and the question was about Vincent's total daily income.

Passenger                  Price                  Daily demand

Adults                          $18                        70

Children                      $10                        25

Senior citizens            $12                        55

total                                                           150

total revenue per day = ($18 x 70) + ($10 x 25) + ($12 x 55) = $1,260 + $250 + $660 = $2,170

total operating costs per day = (150 / 50) x $450 = $1,350

operating income per day = $2,170 - $1,350 = $820
