<h2>Length = 4cm breadth = 17cm</h2>

Explanation:

Given P = 42 cm and Area = 68cm^2

So we apply the above values to its formula to find length and breadth

P = 2L + 2w = 42cm

L + w = 21cm (dividing the above statement by 2)

(21-w)w = 68cm^2

w^2 - 21w + 68 = 0 (moving variables and framing equations)

(w - 17)(w-4) = 0 , w = 4cm,17cm (calculating the values by using the equation)

Rectangle is 4cm by 17cm

Answer:

Distributive bargaining

Explanation:

Distributive bargaining can be defined as a type of bargaining system/strategy in which one party gains only if the other party loses.

Distributive bargaining is mostly used when there is a negotiation that involves fixed resources e.g; money, assets, etc.

Distributive bargaining as a negotiation strategy does not aim to provide a win-win situation for all parties involved but that one party loses while the other gains considerably.

An example of distributive bargaining is a supermarket having a fixed price for an item. in that situation, you can't bargain and as such you either buy the item or leave the store.

That results in a win for the supermarket and a loss for you the buyer should yo choose to buy the item.

Howard Enterprises, which has three departments, recently reported the following results: A B C Sales revenue $ 12,000 $ 48,000

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Department C should be closed

Explanation:

To determine whether or not it will be profitable to drop a loss making department, we compare the savings in fixed cost to the lost contribution from the division.

For Howard Enterprises, the department with a negative contribution should be closed otherwise its operation would reduce the overall profit by the amount of the negative contribution.

So lets work out the contribution for each department by adding back the apportioned fixed cost. See table below

A B C

$ $ $ Total

Sales Revenue 12,000 48,000 40,000 100,000

Operating cost 11,400 59,800 50,500

Operating income 600 (11,800) (10,500)

*Add back apportioned fixed cost 3,000 12,000 10,000

Contribution 3,600 200 (500)

*Apportioned fixed cost

A- 12,000/100,000× 25,000 = 3,000

B- 48,000/100000 × 25,000 = 12,000

C- 40,000/100,00×25,000 = 10,000

From the above analysis, Department C generates a negative contribution. It implies that it can barely cover its direct cost and so will deplete the total profit by its negative contribution. Hence, it should be closed

Department C should be closed

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The net cash provided by investing activities on the statement of cash flows will be $106,000

Explanation:

Investing activities include all the cash transactions incurred for the fixed asset of the company.

The net cash provided by (used in) investing activities can be calculated as follows

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities = Sale of long-term investment + Collection by McCorey of a loan made to another company

Where

Sale of long-term investment = $60,000 ( Cash inflow )

Collection by McCorey of a loan made to another company = $46,000 ( Cash Inflow )

Placing values in the fomrula

Net cash provided by investing activities = $60,000 + $46,000 = $106,000

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is

A) An exchange of a long position in a fixed-rate bond for a short position in a floating-rate note.

Explanation:

Swapping a fixed interest for a floating one can occur if the fixed interest tenure in comparison to a floating exchange rate becomes less expensive for the entity who took the loan.

Also executing a swap in interest rates (that is giving up the fixed tenure for the floating tenure) helps to ensure that liabilities are kept at minimum whilst assets are maximised.

It is important to note that the capital remains unmodified.
