Answer:

What the accounting equation tells us is that everything that a firm owns, it acutally either owes it to the owners of the firm, or to creditors.

Explanation:

This is why the accounting equation is represented as:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

Where Assets represent what the firm owns, liabilities is what the firm owes to creditors, and Stockholders' Equity (or Owners' Equity) is what the firm owes to the owners.

Answer:

BD Corporation should not purchase the new computers

Explanation:

initial outlay year 0 = -$300,000

increased productivity per year = $75,000 for years 1-5

discount rate = 8%

NPV = -$300,000 + $75,000/1.08 + $75,000/1.08² + $75,000/1.08³ + $75,000/1.08⁴ + $75,000/1.08⁵ = -$300,000 + $69,444.44 + $64,300.41 + $59,537.42 + $55,127.24 + $51,043.74 = -$300,000 + 299,453.25 = -$546.75

since NPV is negative, then the project should be rejected

we can also use an annuity factor to determine the present value of this annuity, PV = $75,000 x 3.9927 = $299,452.50

NPV = -$300,000 + $299,452.50 = -$547.50

tester [92]

Answer:

Jones is right in this lawsuit

Explanation:

Arbitration is the process by which disputes are settled between parties. When there is a disagreement between parties an arbitrator comes in to give a fair and unbiased view of the situation.

A solution that is agreed to by all parties is agreed upon to settle.

In this scenario where Jones is filing a lawsuit against BigMoney LLC for violating the Securities Exchange Act by engaging in fraudulent excessive trading, this is a violation of the law and not a dispute between parties.

So the arbitration clause is is not binding and the arbitration clause should be nullified.
