Explanation:

Though there could be a lot of things that an officer can check out to see if a person is held liable for a crime or not. But two main things could be; An actual Crime(theft or murder etc) and an Eyewitness.

In case of theft, the things should be lost, which will show that a theft has taken place. And an eyewitness like a person who watched the person doing the crime.

In case of murder, there must be a dead body, the murder weapon and an eyewitness. Murder weapon is necessary to make sure that the person who is being held liable for the crime has done this murder and someone saw him doing the act.

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

self-actualization

Explanation:

The answer is deeply related to "Maslows Hierarchy of Needs."

Abraham Harold Maslow is a popular American psychologist who introduced a motivational theory consisting of five stages in relation to the deficiency needs and growth needs of humans.

Everything starts with the deficiency needs. It is very important to satisfy this need in order to engage into the growth needs. For example, a boy is very thirsty. If that need will not be met, the boy will continuously crave for water. On the contrary, if this is met immediately, the boy will aim to grow as a person. This is what you call the growth needs.

This needs are presented in a pyramid.

From top to bottom:

1. Self-actualization

2. Self-esteem Needs

3. Love or Belongingness Needs

4. Safety Needs

5. Physiological Needs

It is ideal for a person to progress from Physiological Needs to Self-actualization, but it doesn't mean every stage is always met. Sometimes, fluctuations occur depending on the situation.

Regarding Clarence's case above. It was stated that he already worked as a doctor in a federal government. This means that he has already satisfied his self-esteem needs and the other needs below. Becoming a doctor is a prestige and a feeling of accomplishment. This can be found on the Self-Esteem Needs stage. In addition to this, Clarence already reached his full potential and is seeking for personal growth and independence. This is backed by the statement above that he opened a private clinic to continue his practice. This means he is already on the self-actualization stage of the hierarchy.

In February of each year, the Carlton Hotel holds a very popular wine tasting event. Tickets must be ordered and paid for in adv

vodka [1.7K]

The realisation principle indicates that the revenue from these ticket sales should be recognised in the period in which the Wine tasting is held.

Explanation:

It complies with Revenue Recognition Accounting Policy 9. It will be a burden for the organization, until the moment services are provided for which the money is taken.

Revenue recognition is a GAAP which defines the specific conditions under which revenue can be recognized. Revenue recognition is a generally accepted concept of accounting. In fact, when the crucial event happened, profits are remembered and the value of the profit for the company is tangible.

For Example, when a product is sold, the profit accounting is relatively straightforward, and the customer pays the products. Nevertheless, the fact that a company takes a long amount of time to manufacture a commodity will confuse accounting. Consequently, there are a number of situations in which the concept of acknowledgment of profit may be excepted.

Morgan Sondgeroth Inc. began operations in January 2018 and reported the following results for each of its 3 years of operations

stepan [7]

Answer:

Part A) Book Value = $1,080,000

Part B) Book Value = $1,050,000

Explanation:

Part 1: To compute the book value of the common stock at December 31, 2020

To do this, we consider both the preferred and common stock values as follows:

Stockholder's equity:

Preferred Stock = $500,000

Common stock = $750,000

Retained earnings: To calculate retained earnings we need to deduct dividends in arrears to prefered stock holders and then ascribe the remaining value to retained earnings.

Dividend in Arrears= 3 years @ 8% interest per year

= 500,000 x 0.08 x 3= $120,000

Remaining earnings for available to common share holders

= Retained earnings balance- dividend paid to prferred stock holders.

=$800,000 (net income for 2020)- $40,000 (net loss for 2019) - $260,000 (net loss for 2018)

= $800,000-$40,000-$260,000

= $500,000 - Dividend in arrears

= $500,000- $120,000

= $380,000

Book Value of Stockholders' equity

Common Stock equity + Balance of retained earnings

= $700,000 + $380,000

= $1,080,000

The book value per share = $1,080,000/ outstanding shares

= $1,080,000/750,000= $1.44

Part 2: To compute the book value of the common stock at December 31, 2020 Preference stock has liquidating value of $106 per share

Stockholder's equity:

Preferred Stock = $500,000

Preferred stock liquidating premium = (106-100) x 5000

= $6 x 5000= $30,000

Common stock = $750,000

Retained earnings: To calculate retained earnings we need to deduct dividends in arrears to prefered stock holders and then ascribe the remaining value to retained earnings.

Dividend in Arrears= 3 years @ 8% interest per year

= 500,000 x 0.08 x 3= $120,000

Remaining earnings for available to common share holders

= Retained earnings balance- net losses from previous years - dividend paid to prferred stock holders - liquadating premium to preferred stock

=$800,000 (net income for 2020)- $40,000 (net loss for 2019) - $260,000 (net loss for 2018)

= $800,000-$40,000-$260,000

= $500,000 - Dividend in arrears - liquidating

= $500,000- $120,000- $30,000

= $350,000

Book Value of Stockholders' equity

Common Stock equity + Balance of retained earnings

= $700,000 + $350,000

= $1,050,000

The book value per share = $1,080,000/ outstanding shares

= $1,050,000/750,000= $1.4

A company had an unadjusted Cost of Goods Sold of $1,690,000. The company closes its underapplied or overapplied overhead to Cos

lakkis [162]

Answer:

"$1,673,750" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

The given values in the question are:

Applied overhead,

= $666,250

Actual overhead,

= $650,000

Unadjusted cost,

= $1,690,000

Now,

The overapplied overhead will be:

= $Applied \ overhead-Actual \ overhead$

= $666,250-650,000$

= $16,250$ ($)

hence,

The goods sold's adjusted cost will be:

= $Unadjusted \ cost-Overapplied \ overhead$

= $1,690,000-16,250$

= $1,673,750$ ($)
