Variable cost refers to the costs of production that fluctuate depending on the number of units produced.
<h3><u>
Explanation:</u></h3>
The cost of any product that changes based on the quantity of goods that are produced. The volume that is produced decides the fluctuations in the variable cost. Fixed cost is the cost that will not change based on the number of units of the goods that is produced. Rent of a building can be considered as a fixed cost. 
Example for variable cost may be raw materials cost, packaging cost,etc. Variable cost can be calculated by adding up the cost of labor and raw materials that are used in the production of one unit of a good. The total variable cost can be calculated by multiplying   variable cost per unit with the number of units produced.

Answer:
a) Disclose in the notes
b) no Disclosure
c) Record a liability
Explanation:
There are three scenarios to be considered
1) It is reasonably possible that Huprey will lose a pending lawsuit. The loss cannot be estimable
First, premise is that Huprey Co. is facing a lawsuit and the possibility of a loss is most possible. If Huprey Co is able to recognize the amount of loss, then he would have been able to record a liability but the inability to estimate the loss means, the company can o<u>nly make appropriate disclosure in notes</u>
2)Huprey is being used for damages of $2 million. It is very unlikely (remote) that Huprey will lose the case.
This second premise is also a lawsuit on damages for $2 million, however, it is most reasonably acceptable that Huprey will win the lawsuit. As such there is no loss, that way there will be no disclosure in Huprey Co's books.
3.  Huprey can reasonably estimate that a pending lawsuit will result in damages of $1.25 million, it is probable that Huprey will lose the case.
The probability of losing a case means that there will be a loss to be recorded in the books and since the damages are already estimable to be $1.25 million. Huprey Co should record a liability
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
The correct answer is telemarketing.
Explanation:
Telemarketing is a form of direct marketing in which an advisor uses the telephone or any other means of communication to contact potential customers and market products and services. Potential customers are identified and classified by various means such as their purchase history, previous surveys, participation in contests or job applications (for example, via the Internet). Names can also be purchased from another company's database or obtained from the phone book or other public or private list. The classification process serves to find those potential customers most likely to buy the products or services that the company in question offers.
 
        
             
        
        
        
The expected return on the common stock should decrease.
To calculate the new expected return on the common stock, we need to calculate the new value of the common stock and debt. The new value of the common stock is $64 million + $16 million = $80 million. The value of the debt is reduced by $16 million to $20 million.
The new expected return on the common stock is 16.6% * ($80 million/$96 million) = 15.63%.
Therefore, the expected return on the common stock should decrease from 16.6% to 15.63%.
A security that symbolises ownership in a firm is called common stock. Common stock owners choose the board of directors and cast ballots for corporate rules. Long-term rates of return are often higher with this type of stock ownership.
