Answer:
The correct option is A, selecting a specific city in which to locate
Explanation:
This question can be solved if we try to eliminate obviously wrong options ,for instance options B and D are entirely out of context with the issue raised because even a layman knows that location of an industry means siting a business in a particular area.
However, we are left with options A and C,but it is important to note that community location is more specific and points to the exact location where the business is to be sited whereas general region is generic in nature.
Judging from the above, the specific city where the business is to be built is best option.

Explanation:
Primary data are data collected or retrieved from the source. These data are obtained directly by researchers from the source where the data emanate from. Examples of primary data are survey, interview, group discussion.
Secondary data are data collected by other people other than the source or user. Examples are reports, news paper articles, journals etc.
Most international researchers collects their own primary data because of the difficulty and scarcity of collecting reliable secondary data. Both types of data are important though but the difficulties in obtaining those reliable secondary data prompts the collection of primary data.
These researchers goes to the root or source of the data to be collected because their findings will eventually be relied upon by users like individuals, government, corporate organizations, schools etc. Relying on secondary data might be hard because they might have be tampered with or altered which may not reflect the true nature of the data.
Answer:
d. transaction loss; $3,695
Explanation:
Calculations:
Today ¥110.58 can be exchanged by $1
<h3>US firm to pay today = 100,000,000/110.58 = 904322.66</h3>
US firm had to pay $904322.66 today.
US firm chooses to pay three months after the transaction and do not uses any hedging technique.
Three months later on settlement date ¥110.13 can be exchanged by $1, so less ¥ can be exchanged now than three months ago ( ¥110.58). Now US firm would incur transaction loss. Translation loss/gain occurs when balance sheet of a firm is converted from one currency to another.
<h3>US firm to pay 3 months later = 100000000/110.13 = 908017.79</h3>
US firm to pay $904322.66 three months later
<h3>Transaction gain/loss = $904322.66 - $908017.79 = -$3695.13 </h3>
So US firm incurs loss of $3695.13, rounded off to $3695

Each year, the employer awards its top salesperson an all-expense-paid trip to Jamaica.

Answer:
1. Depreciation or Amortization of Assets
2.Profit or Loss on sale of Assets
Explanation:
Operating Cash Flow is very different to Net Income. The earlier represent cash movement and the latter represent profit movement.Cash and profit literally are different.
So in the profit calculation you would find some non-cash items that include estimate of depreciation expense or amortization cost of intangible assets or a profit or loss on sale of a PPE item.
Whereas in Operating Cash Flow determination only cash items are considered and all non-cash items are removed from profit of the year to reach an amount of Operating Cash Flow.
