Jonah tells his friend Derek that he would like to go parasailing. Derek is very enthusiastic and suggests that they try an outf

it called Wind Beneath My Wings because he has heard good things about it. Derek offers to arrange everything. He makes a reservation, puts the $600 fee on his credit card, and picks Jonah up to drive him to the Wings location. What a friend! But the day does not turn out as Jonah had hoped. While he is soaring up in the air over the Pacific Ocean, his sail springs a leak, he goes plummeting into the sea and breaks both legs. During his recuperation in the hospital, he learns that Wings is unlicensed. He also sees an ad for Wings offering parasailing for only $350. Derek is listed in the ad as one of the company's owners.

Answer:

- Derek is an agent of Jonah

- Derek failed in his fiduciary duties to his principal

Explanation:

An a agent is someone that is appointed by a principal to take care of their interests. The agent's loyalty is to only his principal and he should not manipulate the relationship for personal gain.

In the given scenario Jonah appointed Derek to arrange for parasailing activity. So he is an agent to Jonah in this respect.

However Derek chooses an outfit called Wind Beneath My Wings where he is an owner, he put aside $600 instead of $350 for the reservation, and the company is unlicensed.

All these are violations of Derek's fiduciary duty. He put Jonah at risk for his own personal gain.

= Income under variable costing + fixed production cost in ending inventory - beginning inventory

= $630,000 + $120,000 - $85,000

The manager of a fashionable restaurant open Wednesday through Saturday says that the restaurant does about 26 percent of its bu
Ghella [55]

Answer: See Explanation

Explanation:

The work done for each day is written below:

Thursday night = 24%

Friday night = 26%

Saturday night = 34%

Wednesday night = 100% - (24% + 26% + 34%) = 100% - 84% = 16%

Let's assume that sales in a week is represented by x. Therefore average sales in week if x = 1 will be 1/4 = 0.25.

Seasonal relative will be:

= Sales in a day /Average sales in a week

Wednesday = 16% / 0.25 = 0.16 / 0.25 = 0.64

Thursday = 24% / 0.25 = 0.96

Friday = 26% / 0.25 = 1.04

Saturday = 34% / .25 = 1.36
