Answer and Explanation:

As in the given situation, Jamie lee have a benefit from the transfer in the case when the interest on the store credit card would be higher than the $50 for the first 90 days

1.  If we assume that the date of the payment is one month but she does not have the money to make the payment so she can transfer the balance to the credit card so that she get 2 more months to make the payment

2. This could become the disadvantage when the payment is not done within the 90 days as she have to pay the interest of 18.5% on the tital amount also the transaction fee would also be paid

Jose goes to an all-you-can-eat buffet at a Chinese restaurant and consumes three plates of food. He does not go back for a four
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The marginal utility of the fourth plate is zero or below zero

Explanation:

The reason is that the law of diminishing marginal utility says that the marginal utility of a product declines upon continuous consumption of that item. This means that the utility before the consumption of first buffet was high and when the second buffet was consumed by the same person the utility was further reduced and so on. This means that the utility must be positive which if is higher enough then the customer is will to pay and eat the buffet again. If it is zero or below zero the customer is not willing to pay for the buffet. This is the reason the person doesn't ordered the item again.

You can not eat the same buffet for all the 365 days. This means the taste of a tasty food fades away after some time or I would say that the utility is gone. Same is the case when you will keep using cellphone for a period and then sell it or dispose it because the item doesn't entertains you or in other words the utility has significantly fallen and is almost zero or below zero.

Hardin Company received $120,000 in cash and a used computer with a fair value of $360,000 from Page Corporation for Hardin Comp
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

$30,000 and $360,000

Explanation:

The computation of the gain on the exchange is shown below:

= Cash received + fair value of the computer  -  undepreciated cost of existing computer

= $120,000 + $360,000 - $450,000

= $30,000

The amount of the computer which is recorded will equal to the fair value of the computer i.e $360,000

For computing the gain we simply added the fair value and deduct the undepreciated cost of an existing computer in the cash received amount so that the accurate amount can come.  

All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

Scenario: Your best friend works for an In-Home Health Provider Company (IHHPC) in Palm Beach County, Florida. Your friend comes
adelina 88 [10]

Answer: Please refer to Explanation

Explanation:

Advise I would give.

1. The process for the collection of cash should be changed to bring in revenue faster. This can be done in a variety of ways,.

- By including in the terms of the contract that the service has to be paid for within a certain period such as a maximum of 4 weeks and then follow up each week on the customer so that they remember that they have a due bill.

- Giving payment based discounts such as a 5% discount if the service is paid for within a fortnight.

- Telling the customer to pay first, if not the full amount, at least a down payment with the total being settled at a later date.

These are but just some ways of getting the money faster but the bottomline is that payment needs to be received faster because the nurses are paid on a weekly basis.

2. Focus more on Patients with Insurance.

The company has a very low clientele base that use insurance and they should aim to increase that figure. This is because Insurance pays out timely and IHHPC will be sure that their payment will come because an Insurance company is bound by certain rules and regulations. For security of payments therefore, they should increase their insurance based clientele.
