A woman purchased a new refrigerator from an appliance store. Two weeks later, she sold the refrigerator to her son, who had jus

t moved into a townhome. Soon afterwards, the thermostat in the freezer malfunctioned. The son contacted an independent service technician, who installed a new cooling panel. One month later, the freezer stopped working again, this time causing all the frozen food and ice to melt and damage a hardwood floor. The son contacted the appliance store, which informed the son that the technician had installed a cooling panel designed for an older model refrigerator. The appliance store then proceeded to install the proper cooling panel at no charge, and the appliance worked properly after that. The son brought a products liability action based on strict liability against the appliance store for the damage caused to his hardwood floor. Assume the parties stipulate to the above facts. Both parties have moved for a directed verdict. Should the court grant either of the motions

Answer: The court shouldn't grant either of them motion, due to the fact that the jury must determine whether the damage was due to the technician's installation of the improper cooling panel.

Explanation:

Based on the information given and assuming that both parties have moved for a directed verdict, then the court should not grant either of the motions.

The court shouldn't grant either of them motion, due to the fact that the jury must determine whether the damage was due to the technician's installation of the improper cooling panel.

Which of the following survey response methods is the most difficult for researchers to code for evaluation:
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

No options are given, but the most commonly used survey response methods are:

  1. Multiple choice questions = generally easy to code
  2. Rating scale questions = also easy to code, since response scales have a finite number of choices, e.g. 2 true/false, 3 agree/disagree/undecided, 5 very bad/bad/fair/good/excellent
  3. Matrix questions. = are a little bit more complex since they involve several rating scale questions, but it is not something difficult either
  4. Dropdown questions. = similar to multiple choice questions
  5. Open-ended questions. = this are hard to code since each subject can respond different things, e.g. the thing that I like the most about this project is bla, bla, bla. There are no pre-set answers given to the subjects. THIS TYPE IS THE MOST DIFFICULT TO CODE.
  6. Demographic questions = similar to multiple choice
  7. Ranking questions = similar to scaled questions

Preparing an Overhead Budget Patrick Inc. makes industrial solvents. Budgeted direct labor hours for the first 3 months of the c
Sergio [31]

Answer:

January:

Total overhead= $11,948

February:

Total overhead= $11,360

March:

Total Overhead= $13,302.5

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Budgeted direct labor hours for the first 3 months of the coming year are:

January= 13,140

February= 12,300

March 15,075

The variable overhead rate is $0.70 per direct labor hour. Fixed overhead is budgeted at $2,750 per month.

To calculate the total overhead for each month, we need to sum the total variable overhead and the fixed overhead. <u>Total variable overhead is the result of applying the variable overhead rate multiplicated with the direct labor hour.</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

January:

Total overhead= (0.70*13,140) + 2,750= $11,948

February:

Total overhead= (0.70*12,300) + 2,750= $11,360

March:

Total Overhead= (0,70*15,075) + 2,750= $13,302.5

If the seller doesn't accept a credit card, you can try another online payment method like PayPal, but never send cash or any check.
