Answer:

They had a gain of $3,333.33

Explanation:

The expression for the accumulated depreciation is as follows;

depreciable cost=Acquisition cost-salvage value

where;

acquisition cost=$60,000

residual value=$12,000

replacing;

depreciable cost=60,000-12,000=$48,000

depreciable cost=$48,000

The annual depreciation can be expressed as;

annual depreciation=depreciable cost/estimated life

where;

depreciable cost=$48,000

estimated life=6 years

replacing;

annual depreciation=48,000/6=8,000

annual depreciation=$8,000

depreciation between January 1 and March 1=(2/12)×8,000=$1,333.33

depreciation by March 1=1,333.33+32,000=$33,333.33

Profit/loss=sale-book value by March 1

book value by March 1=60,000-33,333.33=$26,666.67

Profit/loss=30,000-26,666.67=$3,333.33

They had a gain of $3,333.33

Answer:

B. a high degree of centrality

Explanation:

According to the model of power, there are four contingencies of power which are; <u>centrality</u> ,substitutability, visibility and discretion and each may be high or low within the organization, depending on the scenario.

Centrality refers to <u>how dependent others are, on the person or group holding power, and to what extent the actions of those holding power can affect the people depending on them.</u>

The higher the number of people dependent on the power holder, the higher the degree of centrality.

Therefore, my team has a high degree of centrality because the work of several other teams are dependent on my team's performance.
