Answer:   Higgins should report this litigation as a contingent liability.

Explanation: A liability that is contingent upon an event, that is, dependent on a future event that may or may not happen is called contingent liability. Potential law suits, pending investigations are some of the examples of contingent liability.

A contingent liability will only be recorded if there is likely probability that the event on which such liability depends will occur and the amount of liability could be reasonably estimated.

Suppose that you invest $100 today in a risk-free investment and let the 6 percent annual interest rate compound. What will be t
Kipish [7]

Solution :

It is given that :

Amount of investment or the principle amount , P = $ 100

Time of investment , t = 6 years

Rate of interest compounded annually r = 6 %

Therefore the future amount of this investment in a 6 year time is given by,

$FV=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^t

$FV=100(1+\frac{6}{100})^6

$FV=100(1+0.06)^6

$FV= 100 (1.4185)$

$FV=141$

Therefore, after 6 years the investment of $ 100 will give an amount of $ 141.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Unit cost= $5,5unit

Explanation:

Total manufacturing cost is the aggregate amount of cost incurred by a business to produce goods in a reporting period.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that the cost of goods sold shall consist of:

the cost of direct materials

the cost of direct labor

the cost of manufacturing overhead

Expenses that are outside of the manufacturing facilities, such as selling, general and administrative expenses, are not product costs. They are reported as expenses on the income statement in the accounting period in which they occur.

<u>In this exercise:</u>

Cost of goods manufactured:

Direct materials= $13700

Direct Labor=$4800

Factory overhead= 800hours*$25=$20000

Total= $38500

Unit cost= 38500/7000=$5,5unit

Question 1
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

I think it's A.

You should always question the source. You might be lucky and discover what they've not said about their product. Or you may discover it is simply not true.

A few years back (many in fact), there was a product on the market call Laetrile. It was produced from peach pits. It has an overwhelming popularity that Sloan Kettering (the Cancer Clinic in New York -- the oldest and largest one in the world), spent some of their needed grant money  to test Laetrile. The results -- nothing. Imagine what happened to those who marketed this product.  Word got around. People with Cancer are pretty desperate. They and their loved ones will try anything.

But the facts on the internet help to dispel this kind of thing.
