Answer:

The first journal entry was not the most appropriate, but since the mistake was correctly adjusted at the end of the year, both assets and expenses will be the same whether they did it correctly the first time or they had to adjust a mistake at the end of the year.

E.g. something like this happened

October 1, rent expense for 1 year

Dr Rent expense 12,000

    Cr Cash 12,000

December 31, adjustment to rent expense

Dr Prepaid rent 10,000

    Cr Rent expense 10,000

they should have recorded it as:

October 1, prepaid rent for 1 year

Dr Prepaid rent 12,000

    Cr Cash 12,000

December 31, adjustment to rent expense

Dr Rent expense 2,000

    Cr Prepaid rent 2,000

Whichever way you recorded the transactions, the balances a the end of the year would be:

prepaid rent (asset) $10,000

rent expense (expense) $2,000

What should you do if the severity of risk is low and the frequency of the risk event occurring is high?
borishaifa [10]

If the severity of risk is low and the frequency of the risk event occurring is high thanwe should Avoid the risk.

High Frequency/ High Severity- Risks are almost certain to occur and when they occur impact will be very high. In such a case it is best to use Avoidance as a risk management technique. If avoidance is not possible then prevention and insurance techniques can be considered. High frequency/ Low severity- This more serious risk and occurrence is high but the impact is low. Examples of such risks include workers’ injuries and shoplifting. A common way to manage this type of risk is through Prevention.

Low frequency/ High severity- The impact of these kinds of risks is very high and can bankrupt a business. Insurance is the best technique to manage these risks that have low loss frequency and high loss severity. Low frequency/ Low severity- Retaining and self-insuring the risk. Risk occurrence is low and impact is also very low. In most cases, the costs of managing them outweigh the cost of retaining them.

Explanation:

Lets determine the two variables and their relation in each of the cases.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

B. Investors´ perceptions change, making a fixed exchange rate untenable.

Explanation:

A speculative attack happens when a lot of untrustworthy assets are sold by many investors and with that sale, they buy valuable assets.

In currency, it occurs when the national currency is sold massively and suddenly by national and foreign investors. These types of speculative attacks are seen especially on currencies that use a fixed exchange rate. They have the value of it tightened to a foreign currency.
