What is the bottom-line message about the use of heroic measures in hospital care?

1 answer:

5 0

To hospital staff, the answer to the question about "heroic measures" tells them what the patient and/or the next of kin will accept as 'standard of care' in the treatment of that patient in the event of a life-threatening state. Most facilities will break it down further to 1. no heroic measures to be taken at all,, 2 hydration and pain relief only, 3 hydration, feeding, and pain relief. and 4. all possible measures taken. In the parlance of today's world, this document may be called an End of Life Directive, Living Will, Do Not Resusitate Order, or Medical Power of Attorney. It all boils down to this-how much effort will be required from the facility by the patient or family to avoid liability for the death of the patient?

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

2.5%

Explanation:

Please follow the below mentioned steps in order to calculate a bond's current yield.

Step 1: Calculate annual bond payment (par value × coupon rate).

Step 2: Divide result from step 1 with 2 in order to convert it into semi-annual terms.

Step 3: Then divide the result from step 2 upon current market price and convert into a percentage.

Solution from step 1 to 3:

- Annual bond payment = $1000 × 6%

ABP = $60

- Semi-annual bond payment = $60 ÷ 2

SABP = $30

- Bond's current yield = $30 ÷ $1200 × 100

BCY = 2.5%

puteri [66]

Answer:

a. Debit Bank for $77,600; Debit Sales discount for $2.400; and Credit Sales for $80,000.

a. Debit Bank for $80,000; and Credit Sales for $80,000.

Explanation:

a. Prepare journal entries to record the sales and the subsequent receipt of cash from the credit card company.

The journal entry will look as follows:

Accounts Title Debit ($) Credit ($)

Bank (97% * 80,000) 77,600

Sales discount (3% * 80,000) 2.400

Sales 80,000

(To record sales paid for by the customer using American Express credit cards.)

b. Do the same as requirement (a), but assume the credit cards used were VISA cards (a bank credit card).

Under this scenario, the sales are NOT subject to discount and the customer will 100% of the price.

The journal entry will therefore look as follows:

Accounts Title Debit ($) Credit ($)

Bank 80,000

Sales 80,000

(To record sales paid for by the customer using VISA cards.)
