Answer:
If the government sets out to make home buying easier for more people by forcing lenders to accept LOWER down payments and LOWER interest rates, the result will likely be an INCREASE in housing prices
Explanation:
If either interest rates or down payment amounts lower, the quantity demanded for houses will increase a little, possible leading to a small increase in the prices of houses.
If both interest rates and down payment amounts lower, then the quantity demanded for houses should increase a lot, which will result in an increase in the prices of houses.
This happened during the first decade of our century and everything was fine until the interest rates started to increase and people could no longer pay their mortgages and BOOM, the economy busted.
Answer:
a. An audit adjustment is needed since the best case scenario, where the net realizable value is highest would result in $92,000 - $5,000 = $87,000.
b. the value of inventory must decerase by $99,000 - $87,000 = $12,000, so COGS must increase by that amount:
Dr Cost of goods sold 12,000
Cr Merchandise inventory 12,000
Answer:
we can look at this problem from 2 different point of views:
if you have francs and wish to buy pounds: then you take 12 francs and purchase 1 ounce of gold, and then you sell it for 6 pounds. This way you will only spend 2 francs per each pound instead of 2.2.
if you have pounds and want to make a gain: you take 6 pounds and purchase 13.2 francs and you then buy 1.1 ounces of gold. Then you sell the 1.1 ounces of gold in exchange for 6.6 pounds.
Any of the scenarios does not include any transaction prices nor shipping costs, it is only theoretical.
Answer:
strategic alliance
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that the relationship in this scenario is best referred to as a strategic alliance. This term refers to an agreement between two parties in which they both help each other reach an agreed upon goal but still remain as their own independent organization. Instead it is only a strategy to reach the goals at a much faster time-frame than if each company were doing it alone.
<span>10%
Simplest way to solve this problem is realizing that if 50% of all foreign students smoke, then that also means that 50% of all foreign students don't smoke (100% - 50% = 50%). So for every smoking foreign student you see, there's a non-smoking foreign student. So just double the number of smoking foreign students to get the total number foreign students. So
5% * 2 = 10%</span>
