The apartment house had a communal attic rarely visited by its tenants. the labeled boxes and cast-off furniture offered little

intrigue, so few explored its depths. then one rainy afternoon, i ventured there seeking solitude. roaming beyond the beams of the lone ceiling bulb, i spied only cobwebs until i rounded the corner of a hulking armoire. beyond this antique was unrelenting shadow, but i willed myself to advance. then a grim bellow of thunder resounded, sending me to the floor. prostrate on the splintered beams, my hands felt a shaft of cold steel and i could but imagine the evil article i’d encountered. what technique does the author use to build suspense in the excerpt?

It is a type of discrimination based on somebody's age - even though Susan is more experienced than her young daughter when it comes to this job, Beverly got the job because she is younger. So, Susan has been discriminated against because she is way older than Beverly.

Suppose a basket of goods and services has been selected to calculate the CPI and 2012 has been selected as the base year. In 20
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: 2016 CPI is 110

Explanation:

Given the following :

Base year = 2012

Cost of basket in 2012 = $50

Cost of basket in 2014 = $52

Coat of basket in 2016 = $55

The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is calculated using the formula :

CPI = (weighted cost item in current period / weighted cost of item in base period) × 100

Base period / year = 2012

Current period = 2016

Therefore, 2016 CPI equals;

($55 / $50) × 100

= 110

An inventory error not only affects the current year's cost of goods sold, gross profit, net income, current assets and equity,
pychu [463]

The correct answer is "ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period."

An inventory error not only affects the current year's cost of goods sold, gross profit, net income, current assets, and equity, but also the next period's statements because ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period.

That is why the manager has to be strict regarding the inventory of a company. Inventory has a cost that can be translated into money. So accountants have to be perfect regarding the inventory. So yes, ann error in keeping the inventory affects the company in that the ending inventory of one period is the beginning inventory of the next period. An internal audit can reveal the mistakes in accurately keeping the inventory. So it is better to put extra attention in the process so nothing wrong would be revealed after the audit.
