Answer:

The response options are:

A. halo effects

B. leniency effects

C. primacy effects

D. recency effects

E. presumption effects

The correct answer is C. primacy effects

Explanation:

It is known as the primacy effect of the phenomenon that occurs in the reception of information, through which a person pays greater attention to the first data he receives in comparison to the following data. This effect can be associated with what is usually known as “first impression” (what we feel or think when we meet someone can be difficult to change over time). This would happen when, for example, when presenting a long list of words, people tend to remember the first ones better and value them more.

It is considered that this primacy effect, also called media priming, can result in any image of a story having the capacity to generate in the public the stimulation of what its thoughts are. Thus, it is considered that the image of someone subtracting any object without suffering any kind of consequence can lead to part of the receivers undertake the same action.

Some researchers attribute this effect to a longer trial time of those elements presented previously, which affects a better memorial performance. This also happens when we learn to decide based on past experiences. It seems that the first rewards we have received condition our future decisions to a greater extent than other rewards we have obtained later. This phenomenon is known as the "primacy of the result" and highlights how the first results we get when we perform certain acts, condition us to re-commit the act to a greater or lesser extent.

Jason bought a car for $40,000 upon graduation from college with an engineering degree and a very good job offer. A down payment

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

The cost of the car = $40,000

Down payment = $5,000

Therefore loan amount on the car = Cost of the car - Down payment

= $40,000 - $5,000

= $35,000

But loan repayment starts from 13th months; therefore there are 12 months or 1 year for which interest amount will be added with the total loan amount

Total loan amount after one year = $35,000 * (1+6%) ^1 = $37,100

Now we can use PV of an Annuity formula to calculate the monthly payment of car loan

PV = PMT * [1-(1+i) ^-n)]/i

Where PV = $37,100

PMT = Monthly payment =?

n = N = number of payments = 60 months

i = I/Y = interest rate per year = 6%, therefore monthly interest rate is 6%/12 = 0.5% per month

Therefore,

$37,100 = PMT* [1- (1+0.005)^-60]/0.005

PMT = $37,100/51.72

= $717.38

Therefore correct answer is option A. $717.38

Answer:

The balance of account payable for month of June would be $94,128

Explanation:

Here for taking out the amount account payable for month of June , we will need to have Purchases for the month of June and as it is told that 74% of the inventory purchased would be paid in the following month, it means that the inventory that was purchased in May , 74% of it would be paid in June , so therefore the 74% of purchases would be the account payable for month of June.

First we would have to take out purchases and for that we will use equation of -

<u>Cost of goods sold + ending inventory - opening inventory (for June)</u>

COST OF GOODS SOLD =

$150,000 X 80%

= $120,000

ENDING INVENTORY =

$75,000 + 10% OF COST OF GOODS SOLD OF JULY

= $75,000 + 10% X [ 80% X $240,000 ]

= $75,000 + 10% X 192,000

= $75,000 + $19,200

= $94,200

OPENING INVENTORY =

$75,000 + $120,000 X 10%

= $75,000 + $12,000

= $87,000

Now putting all these values in equations top take out purchases-

=$120,000 + $94,200 - $87,000

= $127,200

PURCHASES = $127,200

ACCOUNT PAYABLE = PURCHASES X 74%

= $127,200 X 74%

= $94,128
