Reasons why South African post office taking private courier companies to court​

Business
1 answer:
Brrunno [24]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

As the only operator of this kind in South Africa, the Post Office has the exclusive right to provide delivery services for all letters, postcards, printed matter, small parcels, and other postal articles up to and including 1kg.

PostNet was initially ordered to stop delivering all packages weighing 1kg and less by 17 March 2020. However, it secured an interdict which allowed it to continue to deliver these packages until the full challenge was heard in the Gauteng High Court.

The Post Office, Postnet and the South African Express Parcel Association (SAEPA) are now set to head to court in a move that could have ramifications for the entire courier industry in South Africa.

Icasa spokesperson Paseka Maleka told BusinessDay that the regulator would give its support to the Post Office as it was following the letter of the law, which allowed private couriers to only deliver food items in the 1kg or less category.

“Icasa’s mandate is to implement what the law requires, and we are doing exactly that,” he said.

“There are exemptions that deal with businesses that do not fall under postal services. Uber Eats, Mr Delivery, etc are such businesses. Obviously, one cannot expect Sapo to be delivering pizza to a consumer,” he said.

"Christie and Jergens formed a partnership with capital contributions of $300,000 and $400,000, respectively. Their partnership
Katen [24]

Answer:

The Christie and Jergens's respective shares are $92,500 and $42,500.

Explanation:

For computing the Christie and Jergens's respective shares, first, we have to compute the remaining income which is to be shared between these two partners. The computation is shown below:

= Net income - salary - interest on total capital

= $135,000 - $60,000 - 10% × ($300,000 + $400,000)

= $135,000 - $60,000 - $70,000

= $5,000

So, the remaining income would be divided equally between the partners

Now

Christie shares = Salary + interest on capital + remaining income

                         = $60,000 + ($300,000 × $10%) + $2,500

                         = $60,000 + $30,000 + $2,500

                         = $92,500

And, the Jergens shares  =  interest on capital + remaining income

                                          = ($400,000 × $10%) + $2,500

                                          = $40,000 + $2,500

                                          = $42,500

Data related to the inventories of Mountain Ski Equipment and Supplies is presented below:
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

<em>b. $ 90,000.</em>

Explanation:

Net realizable value(Market value) for apparel=Selling price minus associated selling expenses e.g sales commission.

Market value for  Apparel= $ 120,000-(120,000*10%)

                                          =$ 120,000-12,00

Market value for  Apparel =$108,000

Apparel cost=$90,000

The lower of the above costs is $90,000.

Lower of cost or market is one of approaches of valuing and reporting inventory. Ending inventory is usually stated at historical cost. When original cost of the ending inventory is greater than the net realizable value, meaning that the inventory has lost value. The inventory has decreased in value below historical cost, then its carrying value is reduced and reported on the balance sheet. The method for reporting this is called current market value.
