An employer offers each of its 50 employees 20 vacation days per year. As of January, no employees have taken vacation; however,
kati45 [8]

Answer:

An employer is required to accrue a liability for employee's right to receive compensation for future absences when certain conditions are met and as a result it makes it a requirement for a liability to be accrued for vacation benefits that employees have earned but have not yet taken.  

In the given case, employer offers each of its 50 employees 20 vacation days per year. As of January, each employee has earned 1.5 days. The Vacation days which are unused at the end of the year may be carried forward to the next year. There is no anticipation of any forfeitures.  

Therefore employer must record a liability for employees vacation days earned so far for presenting true and fair view of the financial statements.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

demand of

Fall

decrease

Explanation:

Here are the options to this question:

1.expect the (supply of/ demand of )

2.forecasters to (increase/ decrease)

3. weather forecasters to (decrease/ increase)

The new technology would reduce the need for weather forecasters. So t.v. stations and radios would no longer employ weather forecasters and might even lay off some forecasters. So the demand for forecasters would fall.

Due to the reduced demand for forecasters, there would be a large number of unemployed forecasters with no one willing to employ them. This would lead them to a reduction in their salary. When supply exceeds demand, prices fall.

I hope my answer helps you

Find the present value of $19,000 in 11 months at 5.1% interest
dem82 [27]

Answer:

$19,886.396

Explanation:

Given :

Interest rate = 5.1% = 5.1

Principal = $19000

Period = 11 months = (11/12)year

The present value of 19000 in 11 months at 5.1% interest Can be obtained using the relation:

PV = P(1 + r)^n

PV = 19000(1 + 0.051)^(11/12)

PV = 19000(1.051)^(11/12)

PV = 19000 * 1.0466524

PV = 19886.396

Hence, the present value is $19,886.396

Suppose that the bond market and the money market both start out in equilibrium, then the Federal Reserve increases the money su
Trava [24]

Answer:

b) surplus; shortage; up; fall

Explanation:

If the bond market and money market start out at equillibrum, and money supply is increased there will be an excess (surplus) of money over bonds.

That is more money to buy less bonds. The relative scarcity of bonds will result in a shortage (bond supply cannot meet demand).

As a result of the shortage price of bonds will increase because more people are looking for the scarce bonds.

Price of bonds has an inverse relationship with interest. As price increases interest rates will fall.

For example consider a zero coupon bond of $1,000, being sold for low price of $850. On maturity it will yield gain of $150.

If the price rises to $950 the yield will only be $50.

So as price increases and interest (yield) decreases, it will no more be attractive to investors and demand will reduce to meet the available supply of bonds.
