Answer:
d.$5,500.
Explanation:
The computation of the deductible expense is shown below:
= Airfare + lodging + 50% of meals
= $3,000 + $2,000 + 50% of $1,000
= $3,000 + $2,000 + $500
= $5,500
hence, the deductible expense is $5,500
Here we take 100% of airfare & lodging but we took 50% for the meals
hence, the option d is correct
<span>Muckrakers were writers who mostly wrote about corruption in government and business. These American journalists were critics of many things. They earned their name from President Theodore Roosevelt who borrowed the term from John Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress" where a customer was so occupied in raking muck that he paid no attention to anything around him. These muckrakers drew attention from the public about problems in society and garnered strong support from the progressive movement.</span>
Explanation:
Looking from a fair point of view, the White owners of businesses have legitimate reasons to feel that the Act constitutes illegal reverse discrimination.
Remember, reverse discrimination implies an unfair treatment of the majority group (White owners) in an effort to please the minority group. This is evident from the fact that the 10 percent of all federal grants to be released by the Economic Development Administration was only to be used to purchase services or supplies from businesses owned and controlled by U.S. citizens belonging to one of six minority groups excluding the White business owners; making the White owners feel discriminated against.
Thus, unintentionally the Act became a reverse discrimination on White business owners.
Answer:
The answer is False. By cutting the variance of the demand during lead time to 1/2 its original value while maintaining the same lead times, the new safety stock will also drop to 1/2 its original value.
Explanation:
Safety stock is a form of inventory management that provides an additional unit of an item held as a buffer i order to mitigate risk of running out of stock.
A reorder point provides a buffer of time to restock items when stock is running out. It helps to reduce operational costs and chaos that may arise such as rush fees owed to suppliers. It makes the use of a warehouse space more efficient.
Suppose we are a distributor that uses safety stock and a reorder point for inventory management. If we can find a more consistent manufacturer that will maintain the same mean lead times while cutting the variance of the demand during lead time to 1/2 its original value, the new safety stock that we need to carry to achieve the same service level will also drop to 1/2 its original value.
