While traveling on a commercial bus line, a passenger was injured when some luggage fell on him. As required by applicable state

law, the bus company's in-house attorney conducted an investigation and filed the required report with the state transportation department. The passenger subsequently filed a civil action against the bus company in federal district court, seeking compensatory damages for the injuries he suffered. During discovery, the passenger's lawyer served on the bus company a request for production of documents, including a request for the report that the bus company filed with the state. The bus company objected to the request for the report and refused to produce it on the grounds that the report was privileged and protected from discovery under the work product doctrine. It did, however, produce other documents that were requested. The passenger then filed a motion to compel production of the report. If the court finds that the bus company's claims of privilege and work product were not substantially justified, what orders must the court make relating to the passenger's request for production of the report

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

In a situation whereby the attorney of the passenger tried resolving the dispute in good faith, then the bus company must be ordered by the court to produce the report as well as the payment of reasonable cost that was incurred in making the motion.

It should however be noted that such cost may not be awarded when the movant had filed the motion before obtaining the disclosure in good faith. Also, the cost with be given when the nondisclosure response of the opposing party was justified.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

a. 7,900

b. 10,100

Explanation:

As for the provided information,

We know at break even point taxes shall be = 0 as there are no profits and no losses.

a. At break even: = \frac{Fixed\ Cost}{Contribution}

Fixed Cost = $308,100

Contribution per unit = Selling price - Variable cost = $79 - $40 = $39

Therefore, break even units = \frac{308,100}{39} = 7,900 smokers

b. In case the company wants a profit of $51,480 after tax @ 40% then,

Earnings before taxes = \frac{51,480}{1 - 0.4} = $85,800

Therefore, number of units = \frac{Fixed\ Cost + Profit\ before\ tax}{Contribution\ per\ unit}

= \frac{308,100 + 85,800}{39} = 10,100

Kreter, Inc. earned net income of $300,000 last year. This year it wants to earn net income of $450,000. The company's fixed cos
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

sales is $2,500,000

Explanation:

The target sales for the company to achieve a net income of $450,000 in the current year equals the net income plus variable cost plus the fixed costs.

To understand this better,let us use the net income formula:

net income=sales-variable costs-fixed costs

by changing the subject of the formula,we the formula for sales:

sales=net income+variable costs+fixed costs

variable costs=sales*70%=0.7 sales

sales=$450,000+$300,000+0.7 sales

sales-0.7 sales=$750,000

0.3 sales=$750,000

sales=$750,000/0.3=$2,500,000

If the physical count of the inventory revealed $158,000 of merchandise on hand and the inventory records reported $163,000, wha
krek1111 [17]

The necessary adjusting entry to record inventory shortage would be:

“Cost of Merchandise Sold debit $5,000; Merchandise Inventory credit $5,000.”

Cost of Merchandise Sold is the cost of goods and services that correspond to sales made to customers. In this case, we need to decrease ending inventory by the quantity of these goods ($5,000) that either were shipped to customers or assigned as being customer-owned under a certain agreement. Meanwhile, the merchandise inventory is the cost of goods on hand and is available for sale ($5,000).
