Answer:

The balance on the capital account=-$142 billion

Explanation:

The formula for determining the balance on the capital account can be expressed as;

CU+FA+CA+SD=0

where;

CU=balance on the current account

FA=balance on the financial account

CA=balance on the capital account

SD=statistical discrepancy

In our case;

balance on the current account=$346 billion

balance on the financial account=-$204 billion

balance on the capital account=unknown=c

statistical discrepancy=0

replacing;

346+(-204)+c+0=0

142+c=0

c=-142

The balance on the capital account=-$142 billion

Identify a few examples of incentives that someone might encounter in his or her daily life. Instructions: In order to receive f
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

  • Receiving five cents for recycling glass bottles
  • Parking fines for illegal parking
  • Tax breaks for 401(k) retirement contributions checked

Explanation:

Recycling is good for the environment and also means companies spending less because they wouldn't have to reproduce the recycle material from scratch. Paying a person money for recycling the glass bottles is an incentive that is meant to encourage them to do it more.

Not all incentives are positive however. Some are negative and aimed at reducing a behavior. Fining people for illegal parking is an example as the logic is that the offending party will think of the fines the next time they want to park illegally and refrain from it.

Offering tax breaks to a person in order to get them to save is an incentive because they are being offered to keep more of their money if they save more.

A company purchases inventory on terms of net 30 days and resells to its customers on terms of net 15 days. The inventory conver
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

The company's cash conversion cycle is 75 days

Explanation:

The conversion cycle is the number of days that a business takes to convert its investment in inventory into cash flowing from the purchase and sales of the business.

Conversion cycle = Payable days + Inventory in Stock days + Receivable days

where

Payable days = Purchases term  = 30 days

Inventory in stock = Number of days until inventory remains unsold = 60 - 30 days = 30 days ( As payable days are already included in inventory conversion days )

Receivable days = Sales term = 15 days

Placing values in the formula

Conversion cycle = 30 days + 30 days + 15 days

Conversion Cycle = 75 days
