Time period is important in accounting. Companies need to report revenue and expenses on their income statement based on what th

ey earned and incurred during the accounting period. Assume the company had invested $100,000 in an interest-bearing investment on September 1st of this year.

Answer: $2,000

Explanation:

The question alludes to the Accrual principle of Accounting that states that companies need to report revenue and expenses on their income statement based on what they earned and incurred during the accounting period.

The investment is to earn 6% annually which means that every year it is to show returns of;

= 6% * 100,000

= $6,000

On a monthly basis therefore this should be;

= 6,000 / 12

= $500

They invested on September 1st which means that they would have been invested for 4 months by December 31.

The interest for the year is therefore;

= 4 * 500

= $2,000

A goal programming problem had two goals (with no priorities assigned). Goal number 1 was to achieve a profit of $2,400 and goal
topjm [15]

Answer:

100

Explanation:

Goal programming is an optimization technique that allows for multiple, normally conflicting objectives and then attempts to solve each goal sequentially to a satisfactory level. In goal programming, differential variables are being used.

Since the goal programming problem had two goals. Goal number 1 was to achieve a profit of $2,400 and goal number 2 was to have no idle time for workers in the factory. The optimal solution to this problem resulted in a profit of $2,300 and no idle time

This means that goal number 2 was achieved since the optimal solution resulted in no idle time. But goal number 1 was not achieved because a profit of $2300 was achieved in the solution instead of $2400.

Therefore, the value for the objective function for this goal programming problem = 2400 - 2300 = 100
