What may happen if the threaded heating element in percolator is not very tightly mounted

1 answer:

5 0

If the threaded heating element in a percolator is not very tightly mounted a leak may develop. For percolators, all mating surfaces must be tightly screwed together in order to prevent leaking. A build up of hard water deposits, dried milk and other such substances around the gasket may also result in leaking.

On January 2, 2015, Quick Delivery Company traded in an old delivery truck for a newer model. The exchange lacked commercial sub

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

$36,000

Explanation:

The first step is to calculate the fair value of the new truck

(List price-cash paid with trade)-(original cost -accumulated depreciation)

= (36,000-30,000)-(24,000-16,000)

= 6000-8000

= loss of $2000

Therefore the cost of the new truck for financial accounting purposes can be calculated as follows

(Original cost- accumulated depreciation)+cash paid with trade-loss

= (24,000-16,000)+30,000-2000

= 8,000 + 30,000 - 2,000

= 38,000-2,000

= $36,000

Hence the cost of the new truck for financial accounting purposes is $36,000

What is one example of a planned economy?

Daniel [21]

Answer:

socialist economy

Explanation:

A planned economy is a system where the government or the central authority makes all major economic decisions. The government decides on the type and quantities of goods to produce and for whom to produce. In the planned economy, factors of production belong to the government. Manufacture of goods and services is motivated by service to the community, not profits.

A socialist economy is a good example of a planned economy. Just like in a planned economy, a socialist economy is characterized by heavy government involvement. The state controls the factors of production. Public service is the reason for economic production, while consumers do not have the liberty to choose products.

What is the present value on January 1, 2016, of $30,000 due on January 1, 2021, and discounted at 12% compounded annually?What

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

1. Future Value = 30,000

Rate = 0.12

Annual period, NPER = 5

Present value, PV = PV(0.12, 5,0,-30,000 ,0)

Present value, PV = $17,022.81

2. Future value = 8,000

Quarterly rate = 16%/4 = 4%

Number of quarters, Nper = 4.5*4 = 18

Present value, PV = PV (4% , 18, 0, -8,000 , 0)

Present value, PV = $3,949.02

3. Future value = 8,000

Annual rate = 0.1

Annual period, Nper = 5

Present value, PV = PV(0.1, 5, 0, -8000, 0)

Present value, PV = $4,967.37

Present value Discount = 8,000 - 4,967.37

Present value Discount = $3,032.63

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

a. Karen Meyer's personal records

c. American red cross

Explanation:

The $6,000 contribution should be recorded in Karen Meyer's personal records because 1) the donation was made on her personal name 2) a donation of such size is relevant when Karen files her taxes.

The contribution should also be recorded in the American red cross records because the organization needs to clarify to the tax authorities where each sum of money it obtains comes from.

Suppose Charlene Brewster has timesâ (in seconds) of 8.5â, 8.5â, 8.3â, 8.6â, 8.7â, 8.4 and a performance rating of 85â%.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

1. 10s

2. Slower than normal

Explanation:

1. To calculate the normal time, we first take the average of Charlene's observed times:

Average of Charlene's observed time = $\frac{(8.5+8.5+8.3+8.6+8.7+8.4)}{6}$ = 8.5s

Her normal time is therefore: $\frac{Average of Charlene's observed time}{performance rating}$ = $\frac{8.5}{0.85}$ = 10s

2. Since no of Charlene's observed time is higher than normal time of 10s, we can therefore conclude that her work perfomance should be rated as slower than normal.
