Answer: O Tim must pay because the agreement to complete the tax returns earlier than originally agreed is additional consideration supporting the modification of the contract.

Explanation:

When Tim agreed to Betty's stipulation that for her to finish the returns earlier, he would have to pay an extra $250, he in effect agreed to the modification of the contract.

Modified Contracts are also enforceable by law so Tim has to pay the $250. There was no proof that Betty acted wrongfully as she had to change her schedule and needed to be compensated for the inconvenience. Also even if the modification was not in writing, it is a generally accepted rule that for contracts to be modified orally, the amount must not exceed $500 which it did not.

Tim is very much liable to pay.

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

$29,500

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning inventory = $12,000

Ending inventory = $6,000

Purchases = $25,000

Purchase return = $1,500

Kuyu’s cost of goods sold during the period:

= Beginning inventory + Net purchases - Ending inventory

= Beginning inventory + (Purchases - Purchase return) - Ending inventory

= $12,000 + ($25,000 - $1,500) - $6,000

= $12,000 + 23,500 - $6,000

= $29,500

Suppose you just won the state lottery, and you have a choice between receiving $3,500,000 today or a 20-year annuity of $250,00
xeze [42]

Answer: The correct answer is e). 3.67%

Explanation: An ordinary annuity is a series of payments made at the end of each period.

The formula for ordinary annuity is PV = PMT × ((1 - (1 + r) ^ -n)/ r)

Where; PMT = the periodic cash payment; r = the interest rate per period; n = the total number of periods and PV = present value.

Therefore; 3500000 = 250000×((1-(1+r)^-20)/r

This will give the rate as 3.67%
