Answer:

                                      2019        2018     2017      2016     2015

Sales                              362           237      192         134        100

Cost of goods sold       365           238      195         135        100

Accounts receivable    254           202       191          114        100

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the table showing how the trend percents are calculated.

Trend percents, often known as index numbers, can be described as percents that are used for comparing financial data across time to a based year or period. This can be calculated using the following formula:

Trend percents = (Analysis year amount / Base year amount) * 100 ........ (1)

Using equation (1), the following table shows the trend percents computed as follows:

                                     2019         2018     2017      2016     2015

Sales                              362           237       192         134        100

Cost of goods sold       365           238       195         135        100

Accounts receivable     254           202       191          114        100

The ACME company manufactured x brooms per month from January to April, inclusive. On the first of each month, during the follow
Papessa [141]

Solution:

Pick some smart number for x,

let x=2 (I chose x=2 as in this case monthly shipments would be X/2=1).

From January to April, inclusive 4x=8 brooms were produced and

in May the company paid for storage of 8-1 =7 brooms,

in next month for storage of 6 and so on.

So the total storage cost would be:

= 1 ∗ (7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0)

= 28

--> as x=2 , then 28 = 14x

So the answer is 14x

Lump-sum taxes are rarely used in the real world because:_______________
labwork [276]

Answer:

c. lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because they take the same amount of money from both poor and rich.

Explanation:

To understand this question, you have to first understand what lump-sum taxes are.

Lump-sum taxes are a system of taxes where everybody pays the same amount of tax no matter their economic status, or their actions. Basically, lump-sum taxes take the same amount of money from the rich and the poor, hugely increasing the burden on the poor and lessening that of the rich.

As an example, a lump-sum tax of $100 would require everybody to pay $100. To a person earning, say $120, that would be a huge hit, and be a huge burden on his normal life. However, to a rich person who earns, say, $10000, that would be much more easier for the rich person.

Hence, lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because of the unfair advantage the rich have over the poor in tax-paying.

Hope this helped!

Which event occurs in the large intestine?
OLEGan [10]
The main function of our large intestine is to absorb the water that is present in the insoluble food components we take in and its by-product would be the waste that is excreted from the body as faeces. The large intestine is followed by the anus and is preceded by the small intestine.

Martin Corp. permits any of its employees to buy shares directly from the company through payroll deduction. There are no broker
Rashid [163]

Answer: $57,000,000

Explanation:

The employees purchased at a 20% discount which means that this 20% discount is the amount that would have to be covered by the company's pretax earnings:

= 19,000,000 * 15 * 0.2

= $57,000,000

<em>Martin's pretax earnings will be reduced by $57 million because the company would have to cover the discount on the shares. </em>
