Complete Question:

Casey is on trial under criminal allegations that she engaged in fraudulent behavior at the company she manages. She is worried when

the plaintiff alleges that it has "unambiguous proof that Casey is guilty. Which of the following is most likely true?

1. The plaintiff will most likely prove Casey is guilty, since criminal charges only need to meet a prima facie burden of proof.

2. Casey need not worry about the plaintiff's evidence, since parties tend to boast about the level of proof they can establish anyway.

3. If the plaintiff does have unambiguous evidence that meets a "clear and convincing" burden of proof, Casey will most likely be found guilty.

4. If the plaintiff provides proof only up to the level of "clear and convincing," Casey can still be acquitted.

Answer:

3. If the plaintiff does have unambiguous evidence that meets a "clear and convincing" burden of proof, Casey will most likely be found guilty.

Explanation:

In criminal charges, it is expected that the plaintiff will discharge the burden of proof.  The burden of proof is a legal duty which ensures that the truth of the facts are clearly established by the person alleging that a crime had been committed.  The accused (defendant) is initially presumed innocent under the doctrine of "presumption of innocence".  Then, the plaintiff must provide persuasive evidence to establish the truth (unambiguous evidence).  After establishing the truth of the facts (providing unambiguous evidence), the plaintiff has an added or heightened burden because he or she is still expected to provide convincing evidence to prove beyond all reasonable doubt (clear and convincing) that the defendant committed the crime.  This is the situation in a criminal case for a defendant to be found guilty.

Larry’s Life Insurance Co. is trying to sell you an investment policy that will pay you and your heirs $32,000 per year forever.
Harman [31]

Answer:

$444,444.44

Explanation:

Larry's life insurance corporation is trying to sell an investment policy that will pay you and your heirs a total amount of $32,000 per year

The required return on this investment is 7.2%

= 7.2/100

= 0.072

Since the cash flow is a perpetuity then, the amount that will be paid for the policy can be calculated as follows

PV= C/r

= $32,000/0.072

= $444,444.44

Hence the amount of money that will be paid for the policy is $444,444.44

Cotrone Beverages makes energy drinks in three flavors: Original, Strawberry, and Orange. Company is currently operating at 75 p
irina [24]

Relevant Information:

The relevant information is as under:

Segmented income statements appear as follows:

Product                                    Original  Strawberry  Orange

Sales                                     65,200   85,600          102,400

Variable costs                     (44,000)   (77,200)  (80,200)

Contribution margin              21,200     8,400    22,200

Fixed costs allocated                (9,400)    (12,000)   (14,200)

Operating profit (loss)       11,800      (3,600)      8,000  

Answer:

The product not be closed because it is generating net cash flows of ($3,060), which will generate loss for the organization. The better option would be to not abandoning the manufacturing of Strawberry.

Explanation:

Relevant costing says that any savings or losses are relevant if it satisfy following three conditions:

  1. Is a cash flow.
  2. Future related (Not arising due to Past bindings).
  3. Differential or Incremental in nature.

Its crystal clear that any inflows and outflows that are considered would be cash in nature, not related to past events it must be arising as a consequence of taking the decision whose consequences are we considering now, I mean it must arise in future due to the decision made which are considering. The last condition is the concept of differential that lies in the heart of relevant costing and is easily understood by following the following steps:

Step 1: What are the losses or savings if we don't make decision?

Step 2: What are the losses or savings if we make the decision?

Step 3: The difference between step one and two is differential or incremental cost.

Here we learned that relevant cost arises if we take the decision (closing manufacturing of Strawberry), and it doesn't arises if we don't take the decision (not abandoning manufacturing of  Strawberry).

Relevant costs associated with the decision are as under:

                                                    Step 1              Step 2        Step 3

                                            Make Decision    If we Don't Differential

Revenue loss                             (85,600)               -          (85,600)

Variable Costs Savings              77,200                 -            77,200

Fixed costs Savings (W1)             5340                   -              5340

Operating Profit                                                                   (3,060)

Working1: Fixed costs Savings

Total Fixed costs =21400+12000+14200 = $35,600

The saving is 15% of the total fixed cost and is as under:

Fixed costs Savings = $35,600 * 15% = $5340

In general, it is a bad move for a company to produce more of a good or service if, by doing so,a. marginal cost exceeds margina
scoray [572]

Answer:

The correct option here is A) marginal cost exceeds marginal revenue

Explanation:

When a company is producing more goods and services, it becomes a bad move because at this point company's marginal cost starts exceeding the marginal revenue , which means with each additional units a company is producing it is losing profit on that unit, so it is better for a company to produce less and try to find that level of output where its marginal cost and revenue are equal because at that level, company would be able to make optimal profits.
