Answer: a. Making authorized commitments

Explanation:

Executive Orders 12674 and 12731 (which amended 12674) of 1989 and 1990 respectively, were signed by President Bush with the purpose of setting forth the principles of ethical conduct that were required of Federal Government Officers and Employees.

These principles were meant to ensure that government officials and employees abstained from Abuse of power whilst working in such a way as not to bring disrepute to the Federal Government.

All of the above are violations of the Order except option A which is stated in Part I Section 101 (f) of Executive Order 12674. It reads that, "<em>Employees shall make no unauthorized statements</em>..." thus insinuating that employees are allowed to make Authorized statements.

Computing second-year depreciation and accumulated depreciationAt the beginning of 2016, Air Asia purchased a used airplane at a
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

1. a.$4,375,000

  b. $7,500,000

 c. $9,800,000

2. $8,750,000

  $18,200,000

  $17,500,000

Explanation:

1. The computation of the depreciation expense for the second year is presented  below:

a) Straight-line method:

= (Purchase value of airplane - residual value) ÷ (useful life)

= ($40,000,000  - $5,000,000) ÷ (8 years)

= ($35,000,000) ÷ (8 years)  

= $4,375,000

In this method, the depreciation is same for all the remaining useful life

(b) Double-declining balance method:

First we have to find the depreciation rate which is shown below:

= One ÷ useful life

= 1 ÷ 8

= 12.5%

Now the rate is double So, 25%

In year 1, the original cost is $40,000,000 so the depreciation is $10,000,000 after applying the 25% depreciation rate

And, in year 2, the $30,000,000 × 25% = $7,500,000

(c) Units-of-production method:

= (Purchase value of airplane - residual value) ÷ (estimated miles)  

= ($40,000,000  - $5,000,000) ÷ ($5,000,000 miles)

= ($35,000,000) ÷ ($5,000,000 miles)  

= $7 per miles

In first year, it would be

= Miles in first year × depreciation per miles

= 1,200,000 miles × $7

= $8,400,000

Now for the second year, it would be  

= Miles in second year × depreciation per miles

= 1,400,000 miles × $7

= $9,800,000

2. The calculation of the accumulated depreciation balance would be

Straight line method:

= $4,375,000 + $4,375,000

= $8,750,000

Double-declining balance method:

= $10,000,000 + $7,500,000

= $17,500,000

Units-of-production method:

= $8,400,000 + $9,800,000

=  $18,200,000

butalik [34]

Answer:

Outside vendors specializing in all aspects of benefits administration would provide improved support to the firm's employees.

Explanation:

Shared services HR teams provide specialized support of day-to-day transactional HR activities to the company's employees by focusing on using centralized call centers and outsourcing arrangements with vendors (like benefits providers). By utilizing HR shared services, Whitman and the other managers can now devote more time to other HR matters while improving benefits enrollment and coverage by deferring those questions to benefits specialists.

The intensity of competition is greater in declining industries in which: a. the product is easy to differentiate. b. exit barri
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

b. exit barriers are high

Explanation:

Declining industries are those industries wherein the industry has saturated and experiences a negative growth. The characteristic of such industries being the products are lesser in demand.

For instance, cassettes and magnetic tapes industry was in demand until the arrival of more advanced forms such as compact discs and usbs, post which those industries turned into declining industries.

A declining industry with high barriers to exit would experience a greater competition since the barriers would encourage competition instead of withdrawal. And with higher costs of withdrawal, the firms continue producing at negative growth.
