Answer:

D. The window washer was entitled to no recovery based on his status as an independent contractor.

Explanation:

The reason is that the employer is liable to have all safety measures in place to safeguard the employee from any type of injury at work. If despite all these safety measures, the employee gets injured then he is entitled to workers' compensation.

However, the employer is not liable to compensate independent contractors for accidents as the duty of care is not upon the employer in the case of independent contractors which means that the independent workers are obliged to take all necessary precautions to avoid any injury because it will not be compensated by the employer. Thus, the employer is not liable to compensate independent contractors and option D is correct.

Safeco’s current assets total to $20 million versus $10 million of current liabilities, while Risco’s current assets are $10 mil
dlinn [17]

Answer:

b. The transactions would lower Safeco's financial strength as measured by its current ratio but raise Risco's current ratio

Explanation:

The formula to compute the current ratio is shown below:

Current ratio = Total Current assets ÷ total current liabilities  

So,

For Safeco, the current ratio would be

= $20 million ÷ $10 million

= 2 times

And for Risco, the current ratio would be

= $10 million ÷ $20 million

= 0.5 times

After borrowing, the current ratio would be

The current assets and the current liabilities would be increased by $10 million in each side.

For Safeco, the current ratio would be

= $30 million ÷ $20 million

= 1.5 times

And for Risco, the current ratio would be

= $20 million ÷ $30 million

= 0.67 times

By comparing the current ratio, we get to know that The Safeco current ratio would be decreased whereas, the Risco current ratio is increased

Hence, option b is correct
