The owner of a small fleet of taxicabs had his cabs serviced by a national chain of auto service centers. One of his cabs went t

hrough a stop sign when its brakes failed without warning. The ensuing collision seriously injured the passenger. An investigation revealed that brake repairs had been made on the cab a week before, but the service center's mechanic had used the wrong parts and had made numerous errors in reassembling the brakes. If the passenger sues the cab company owner for her injuries, who should prevail

Answer:

if you are asking who should prevail in this scenario, its most likely the mechanics.

Explanation:

first off, its the fleet owner who has taken the cabs to that certain mechanic,

therefore he is responsible for the first move, but on the other hand, the mechanics shouldnt be working on cars like taxicabs in the first place with out a license if they DIDNT have one in this case. if they didnt then they would be the ones most likely to lose the case. and another reason, the mechanics knew what theyre doing but never hesitated on switching plans for other brake parts. so in this case, its the mechanics who should prevail.

You deposit $100 in an account that pays 6 percent annual interest, compounded quarterly. What will your deposit grow to in 3 ye
Burka [1]

Answer:

$119.56

Explanation:

We will use compound interest formula to solve this problem.

The formula is:

F=P(1+r)^t

Where

F is the future value

P is the present amount

r is the rate of interest per period

t is the number of periods

Here,

F is the value we want, after 3 years

P is the present amount, $100

r is the rate of interest per quarter (per period)

Given r = 6% annually, so that would make:

6%/4 = 1.5% per quarter, or 1.5/100 = 0.015

Also, t is the number of quarters in 3 years, that would be 4*3 = 12

Now, substituting, we get our answer:

F=P(1+r)^t\\F=100(1+0.015)^{12}\\F=100(1.015)^{12}\\F=119.56

The first answer choice is right, $119.56

b) In an income statement vertical analysis, each line item is calculated as a percentage of the sales, which is itself 100%.  This enables the proportional analysis of all the items to be computed about their financial performance in relation to the sales for the period.  It can help management to dictate unusual items, errors, and other outliers.

c) The balance sheet trend analysis shows whether the entity's financial position is improving or not in relation to the base period.  Each item is compared horizontally across periods.  The calculation of trend uses the amount in the non-base year and divides it by the amount of the base year x 100.
