When China reformed state-owned enterprises, it tried a new approach to choosing managers: it put managerial jobs up for auction

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Information asymmetry occurs when one of the two parties in a transaction has more information than the other. This causes the person that has the least information to likely make bad decisions.

In the question, we have an example of information asymmetry: incumbent managers simply have more information about the companies, because they have actually worked in managing them.

Outside managers, while as qualified as incumbent managers, do not have as much information about the companies, because they have not actually worked there.

Expense on direct labor is provided for during the production by a debit to factory payroll expense and a credit to factory payroll payable.

As such, the journal entry will be a debit to factory payroll payable $160,000 and a credit to cash $160,000. This means cash will reduce by $160,000 as the factory workers are paid while payables which is a provision account will reduce as well on the cash book by the same amount.
