Answer:

Salary in year 2 = $54,379.31

Explanation:

<em>The Consumer price index is the weighted average of the cost of basket of good of goods and services consumed by a typical consumer in an economy. It is used to measure the rate of inflation rate.</em>

A rise in the price index implies inflation

Inflation is the increase in the general price level. Inflation erodes the value of money.  

So we can determine the salary in the  year  2 as follows:  

2006 Salary in the base year terms=

CPI in the current year 2/CPI base year 1 × salary in the current year

190/174× 49,800 = 54,379.31

Salary in year 2 = $54,379.31

Answer:

Find attached complete question with the multiple choices:

The correct answer is false

Explanation:

The statement implies that in an hospitality business,13% to 16% of the guests checked in, in order to be served for free.

Hospitality business sector prouds itself in having clients that have taste and want value for money,this is evident in their ability to make payments for hotel reservations prior to arrival,as a result ,it would be out of place to say 13% to 16% of such individuals want free service.

Everyone knows that such luxury of service comes at a premium price,it is not in anyway similar to buying a course online where to some extent you enjoy a free service(freemium) and expected to pay for any service above the minimum.

All in all,hospitality is pay as you go.

Answer:

groupthink

Explanation:

In team discussions and debates, groupthink is a common phenomenon where team members tend to agree with others without a constructive discussion filled with arguments. It is very common when an authoritative person (manager) is leading the discourse of discussion.

Depreciation Methods On January 2, 2018, Skyler, Inc. purchased a laser cutting machine to be used in the fabrication of a part
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Instructions are listed below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The machine cost $120,000, and its estimated useful life was four years or 920,000 cuttings, after which it could sell for $5,000.

Each method has a different formula. In the straight-line depreciation, each year's depreciation expense is the same. On the other hand, double-declining balance depreciation expense declines with the years. While the units of production method, depreciation expense varies according to use.

A) Straight-line:

Annual depreciation= (original cost - salvage value)/estimated life (years)

Annual depreciation= (120,000 - 5,000)/4= $28,750 per year

B) Double declining balance:

Annual depreciation= 2*[(book value)/estimated life (years)]

Year 1= 2*(115,000/4)= 57,500

Year 2= 2*[(115,000 - 57,500)/4]= 28,750

Year 3= 2*[(57,500 - 28,750)/4]= 14,375

Year 4= 2*[(28,750 - 14,375)/4]= 7,187.5

C) Units of production:

Annual depreciation= [(original cost - salvage value)/useful life of production in units]*units produced

Year 1= [(115,000)/920,000]*200,000= $25,000

Year 2= (0.125)*350,000= 43,750

Year 3= 0.125*260,000= $32,500

Year 4= 0.125*110,000= $13,750
