Nelson Ovalles worked as a cable installer for Cox Rhode Island Telecom, LLC, under an agreement with a third party, M&M Com

munications, Inc. The agreement stated that no employer-employee relationship existed between Cox and M&M’s technicians, including Ovalles. Ovalles was required to designate his affiliation with Cox on his work van, clothing, and identification badge, but Cox had minimal contact with him and limited power to control the manner in which he performed his duties. Cox supplied cable wire and similar items, but the equipment was delivered to M&M, not to Ovalles. On a workday, while Ovalles was fulfilling a work order, his van rear ended a car driven by Barbara Cayer. Is Cox liable to Cayer?

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Ovalles was an M&M contractor to perform work assigned by M&M. As the question says, <em>"Cox had minimal contact with him and limited power to control the manner in which he performed his duties."</em>.  That is the main feature of a contractor, different from an employee who works directly for Cox. The liability is completely of M&M.

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Break even = $50 per visit

$100,000 profit = $60 per visit

Explanation:

In order to break even, the total revenue of the expected 10,000 visits must equal the costs necessary to perform them. The cost per visit is the only variable cost with the others being fixed costs:

10,000*P = 10,000*5 + 50,000+500,000\\P-5 = \frac{550,000}{10,000}\\P=\$50

In order to break even, the hospital must charge $50 per visit.

In order to earn an annual profit of 100,000, That profit must be spread out over the 10,000 visits, the profit required per visit is:

P_v = \frac{100,000}{10,000}\\P_v = \$10

Since the break even price is $50, the hospital must charge $60 to earn an annual profit of $100,000.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

The answer is:

A 15% increase in inventory turns for Toys by Tom, Inc. would bring this ratio to 4.8 times, suggesting improvement in efficiency.

Explanation:

We have the current Inventory turnover = COGS / Inventory = 41,700/10,000 = 4.17 times

=> An 15% increase in the Inventory turnover will bring the Inventory turnover ratio to: 4.17 x 1.15 = 4.8 times;

Increasing in inventory turnover may be the result of higher sales ( thus higher COGS) or low level of inventory holding - thus limiting the resources spending on idle inventory. So, higher level of inventory turnover in someways suggesting improvement in efficiency.
