For the cost of repairing the damage to the tank, Metro is most likely to be awarded compensatory damages.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Compensatory damages are funds granted to a plaintiff to recompense for losses, damage, or added provoked loss. To acquire compensatory damages, the plaintiff has to demonstrate that a loss transpired and that it was attributable to the appellant.

The plaintiff must also be suitable to quantify the value of loss in the sights of the judge. Actual damages are meant to contribute funds to simply restore what was lost. General compensatory damages granted are more complicated, as these compensatory damages do not factor a financial payment

On January 1, 2014, the merchandise inventory of Glaus, Inc. was $1,200,000. During 2014 Glaus purchased $2,400,000 of merchandi

Xelga [282]

Answer: Option (C) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Merchandise inventory(beginning inventory) = $1,200,000

Merchandise purchased = $2,400,000

Sales = $3,000,000

Gross profit rate on sales = 25%

Ending inventory of Glaus:

= Beginning inventory + Purchases - cost of goods sold

= $1,200,000 + $2,400,000 - [sales × (100-25)%]

= $1,200,000 + $2,400,000 - $3,000,000 × 0.75

= $1,200,000 + $2,400,000 - $2,250,000

= $1,350,000

polet [3.4K]

Answer: $78.25

Explanation:

The Southern Division is willing to pay $78.25 to an outside company for this part that it needs.

In the same vein, the maximum therefore that they would be willing to pay for the Western Division should be $78.25 as well because anything higher than that would constitute an Opportunity Cost loss.

They should go for the cheaper option and if buying from the Western Division exceeds the $78.25 then it is loss on their part. Western Division should charge the same or less.

Consider the following two separate events for a company during the year: 1. Loss on sale of investments = $30. 2. Unrealized ga

Serggg [28]

Answer:

A.) Net income = $(30); Comprehensive income = $(10).

Explanation:

First, the multiple choices to the question

A.) Net income = $(30); Comprehensive income = $(10).

B.) Net income = $(30); Comprehensive income = $20.

C.) Net income = $0; Comprehensive income = $(10).

D.) Net income = $(10); Comprehensive income = $20.

The question is to determine the effect of the two events listed on the Net Income as well as the comprehensive income

First, we look at event one:

The loss of sales of investment = #30

The effect of this is to debit the income statement because it is a net loss of $30. It brings a reduction to the income side. Income will usually have a credit balance, but a net loss reduces income therefore, it will be debited.

Second, the Unrealized gain on investment from increase in fair value = $20

The effect is $10 which represents $30 from the loss - $20 from the unrealised gain. It will however, also decrease the comprehensive income by the $10.
