Answer:

The answer is $53,732.

Explanation:

The value of the equipment reported on Libby Company's balance sheet is equal to:

Cash payment at purchase + Present value of 8 equal semiannual payment, $6,700 each discounted at 3% ( because semiannual payment is made for 4 years so we have 2 x4 = 8 payments; and annual borrowing rate is 6% so we have discount rate = 6% /2 = 3%).

with:

Cash payment at purchase = $6,700;

Present value of 8 equal semiannual payment, $6,700 each discounted at 3% = (6,700/3%) x ( 1 - 1.03^(-8) ) = $47,032 ( that is, apply the formula to find present value of annuity).

we have:

The value of the equipment reported on Libby Company's balance sheet = 6,700 + 47,032 = $53,732.

Question Completion with Answer Options:

A. Yes, according to the terms of her contract.

B. Yes, according to the duty of good faith and fair dealing.

C. No, according to the at-will termination provision in her contract.

D. No, because subsequent conduct of the parties modified the contract.

Answer:

Fountain Valley, Inc. and Alice

B. Yes, according to the duty of good faith and fair dealing.

Explanation:

Alice is entitled to the bonus of $10,000 because the duty of good faith and fair dealing requires Fountain Valley not to deny Alice the benefits arising from their valid contract.  Since Alice's employment contract included a 5% bonus of all sales in excess of the previous 12 months' sales, the Fountain Valley, Inc. should not deny Alice's claim to the benefits.

b) Employment contract terms = $78,000/year plus 5% bonus of all sale in excess of the previous 12 months' sales.  The value of sales in 2017 is $200,000 more than in 2016.  5% of $200,000 = $10,000.  Therefore, Alice is entitled to the bonus.

What is the process of converting the currency of one country into the currency of another country?
Arada [10]

Answer:

Foreign exchange

Explanation:

The process of converting the currency of one country to another is known as foreign exchange or Forex. Converting or exchanging to a particular currency is buying that currency. One needs to have their home currency or any other currency to convert it to the desired currency.

If both currencies have equal strengths, then one unit of a currency should exchange with one unit of the other. The exchange rate would be one. Since currencies have different strengths, they convert or exchange at different rates.
