Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": quasi contract.

Explanation:

A quasi-contract is a type of agreement set by a judge where two parties engaged in some sort of deal involving one of them providing something to the other in exchange for payment but the second party does not fulfill its obligations. Quasi-contracts are created to avoid individuals from taking advantage of one another.  

Quasi-contracts mostly happen when there is no written contract between the parties in a dispute where terms are established making the parties liable of what they signed.

Answer:

D) quasi contract

Explanation:

In contract law, a quasi contract is a legal obligation that results from the absence of a contract between parties. Its main purpose is to prevent unjust enrichment by the party with the highest bargaining power. In this case, the timber company has much more bargaining power and overall wealth than Shawn.

A court determines the existence of a quasi contract and orders its performance in the absence of a true contract.

In a bill-and-hold arrangement, revenue only can be recognized after the sale of the goods to the end user.
Verdich [7]

The correct answer is True. When ownership of the items passes to the customer, revenue is realised. In addition to the requirements for determining when control transfers, a reporting entity must also satisfy certain additional requirements for a customer to have achieved control in a bill-and-hold arrangement.

A bill and hold sales arrangement allows for payment in advance of the item's delivery. This is a sales agreement when a product seller invoices a consumer up front but doesn't actually ship the thing until later.

In a bill and hold transaction, the vendor does not deliver the purchased goods to the customer, but the associated income is still recorded. Under this structure, revenue cannot be recognised until a number of severe requirements have been satisfied. The possibility of falsely recognising revenue too early exists otherwise.

Searls Corporation, a merchandising company, reported the following results for July: Number of units sold 2,700 units Selling p
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

$534,600

Explanation:

<em>Contribution margin = Sales - Variable Costs</em>

where :

Sales = 2,700 units x $664 = $1,792,800

Variable Costs = Costs of Goods Sold + Variable Selling Costs + Variable Administrative Cots

                        = 2,700 units x $405 + 2,700 units x $48 + 2,700 units x $13

                        = $1,258,200

therefore,

Contribution margin = $1,792,800 - $1,258,200 = $534,600

Suppose our firm produces chartered business flights with capital (planes) and labor (pilots) in fixed proportion (i.e. one pilo
qaws [65]

Answer:

C. optimal capital labor ratio remains the same

Explanation:

One pilot for each plane implies A = B

Let cost be C

So, isocost line is xA + rB = C

So, xA + yA = C (as L = K)

So, (x+y)A = C

So, A = C/(x+y) =B

Optimal capital labor ratio = B/A = 1 as B =A

Now, wage rate increases to x'

So, isocost line is x'A + yB = C

So, x'A + yA = C (as A = B)

So, (x'+y)A = C

So, A = C/(x'+y) = B

New optimal capital labor ratio =B/A = 1 as B = A

Thus, optimal capital labor ratio remains same because capital (planes) and labor (pilots) are used in fixed proportion.

Thus the answer is

C. optimal capital labor ratio remains the same

Which of the following is not a ratio to assess a firm's liquidity?a. Current Ratiob. Debt ratioc. Quick Ratiod. All of the abov
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

b. Debt ratio

Explanation:

The liquidity ratio includes the current ratio, quick ratio, etc

where,  

Current ratio = Total Current assets ÷ total current liabilities

And, Quick ratio = Quick assets ÷ total current liabilities  

where,  

Quick assets = Cash and cash equivalents + short-term investments + Accounts receivable (net)  

These two ratios check the liquidity of the business organization whereas debt ratio shows a relationship between the total liabilities and the total assets. It checks the leverage of the firm whether it is capable to repay the borrowed amount or not

Hence, option b is correct
