Answer:

Cost of Mining Stone pit = $10,500,000

Salvage value at the end of third year = $500,000

Total expected mining during the life = 50,000 tonnes

Depletion per tonne = (cost - salvage) ÷ total expected mining

                                 = (10,500,000 - 500,000) ÷ 50,000

                                 = $200 per tonne

Stone extracted during the year = 10,000 tonnes

Depletion expense of Year 1 = 10,000 tonnes @ 200 per tonne

                                                = $2,000,000

JOURNAL ENTRY:

Depletion expense A/c  Dr.                        $2,000,000

To  Accumulated Depletion- Mining rights                    $ 2,000,000

(To record depletion expense for Year 1)

Answer:

<u>Amplified word of mouth.</u>

Explanation:

Word of mouth marketing refers to using customer recommendations for the purpose of advertising so as to accomplish marketing goals.

Usually this form of marketing is spread from one customer to another in the form of recommendations.

For instance, a customer who uses a product and liked it, posts a favorable review on the product site, praising the product. Such a review would influence other prospective buyer and their purchases.

There are two kinds of word of mouth namely, organic and amplified. In the case of former, the review and praises arise out of natural tendency of the customer to recommend the product.

In case of the latter, the marketers launch such campaigns that encourage word of mouth in both existing as well as new communities.

In the given case, the company distributes free samples and seeks feedback of the target customers on the company's blog, which would be visible to prospective customers. The goal being to stimulate positive word of mouth, this method refers to amplified word of mouth.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

a. Gerard’s contract is voidable at his option while it is entirely executory.

Explanation:

In the United States of America, one of the most widely used recognized and most cited legal treatises is the Restatement of Contracts. It allows legal luminaries (judges and lawyers) to have a general understanding of non-binding authorities in contract or common law.

According to the Restatement (second) of Contract, voidable contract is one where one or more parties have the power, by a manifestation of election to do so, to avoid the legal relations created by the contract, or by ratification of the contract to extinguish the power of avoidance.

Hence, under the Restatement, Gerard’s contract is voidable at his option while it is entirely executory.

63. In most states, whether the time within which a minor disaffirms a contract constitutes a reasonable time is determined by the fact and circumstance of the case.
