Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": net income for the year will be overstated.

Explanation:

Net Income is an important measure of how profitable the company is over a period of time. Net income is calculated by taking the total revenue and subtracting the business expenses which results in the earnings before tax. After taxes are deducted, the amount obtained will be the firm's net income.  

Prepaid insurances are considered expenses of a company. Thus, <em>if the payment of the prepaid insurance was not recorded, the net income of the firm will be overstated.</em>

Consider two policies: a tax cut that will last for only one year and a tax cut that is expected to be permanent. True or False:
NeTakaya

Answer: False

Explanation:

A short term tax cut will not affect spending as much as a permanent tax cut.

With a short term tax cut, people will know that they will have to go back to paying higher taxes in a short while and so will spend less so that they may be able to afford the higher taxes when they are reimplemented.

If a tax cut is long term however, consumers will spend more because they do not have to worry about having to afford to pay higher taxes after the year expires.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that this communication is violating the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890. This Act was passed prohibiting any contract, trust, or conspiracy in restraint of interstate or foreign trade in order to prevent oppressive business practices and monopolies. This is what the two companies are doing by agreeing to jointly raise the price they are able to control the entire markets price thus creating a monopoly in the automotive industry, which forces consumers to pay a lot more than what the vehicles are actually worth.

The preliminary net income for February is $ 1,100

The net profit margin is  42.3 %

Explanation:

Computation of net income and net profit margin

Revenues   ( $   900 + $ 1,700 )                                                     $ 2,600    

Expenses ($ 200 + $ 1,200 + $ 100 )                                             <u>$ 1,500</u>

Net Income                                                                                      $ 1,100    

Net profit margin = Net income / Revenues

Net Profit margin   = $ 1,100/ $ 2,600 =                                          42.3 %  

The other entries for collections made on Feb 04 for services to be performed next month and the purchase of supplies to be used in the future are not to be considered in revenues and expenses as they do not pertain to the current month
