Answer:

Salary raises based on length of service  

Explanation:

Agency conflict occur when the owners of a firm do not manage the company. Instead, the firm is managed by mangers. As a result, the interest of the manger might not be aligned with that of the owners and as a result the manager would not act in the best interest of the owners.

Agency problem is more common in public companies

If management compensation tied to the market value of the firm's stock, it would incentivise managers to take steps that would ensure that the value of the company's stock increases. This is because they would also benefit if the value of the stock increases

A stock option plan gives managers the option of buying a company's stock if certain targets are met. This would motivate an employee to work in the best interest of the shareholders

A proxy fight and a takeover would make the managers to lose their jobs. Most managers would not want to lose their jobs. A threat of a takeover or a proxy fight can serve to motivate mangers to act in the best interest of the stockholders

Let $S$ be the set of complex numbers of the form $a + bi,$ where $a$ and $b$ are integers. We say that $z \in S$ is a unit if t
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Number of units possible in S are 4.

Explanation:

Given <em>S</em> is a set of complex number of the form a+bi where <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> are integers.

z\in S is a unit if w\in z exists such that zw=1.

To find:

Number of units possible = ?

Solution:

Given that:

zw = 1

Taking modulus both sides:

|zw| = |1|

Using the property that modulus of product of two complex numbers is equal to their individual modulus multiplied.

i.e.

|z_1z_2|=|z_1|.|z_2|

So,

|zw| = |1|\\\Rightarrow |zw| =|z|.|w| =1\\\Rightarrow |z|=\dfrac{1}{|w|}......... (1)

Let z=a+bi

Then modulus of z is   |z| = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}

Given that a and b are <em>integers</em>, so the equation (1) can be true only when |z| = |w| =1 (Reciprocal of 1 is 1). Modulus can be equal only when one of the following is satisfied:

(a = 1, b = 0) ,  (a = -1, b = 0), (a = 0, b = 1) OR (a = 0, b = -1)

So, the possible complex numbers can be:

1.\ 1 + 0i = 1\\2.\ -1 + 0i = -1\\3.\ 0+ 1i = i\\4.\ 0 -1i = -i

Hence, number of units possible in S are 4.

For the next 2 questions, use the financials of Acme Corporation. After adjusting revenue for accounts receivable and deferred r
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: B. $892.1 million

Explanation:

The Revenue was $939,393 million

When calculating how much cash was generated any increase to the Accounts Receivables is removed from the revenue because it signifies that more sales were made on credit and so have not given the business cash yet.

Any increase in Deferred Revenue must be added because this is Cash that has been given to the business but for accrual purposes cannot be recognized yet. Bottomline however, the Cash has been received.

Increase in Receivables = 309,196 - 221,504

= $87,692 million

Increase in Deferred Revenue= 374,730 - 334,358

= $40,372 million

The Cash generated is therefore;

= 939,393 - 87,692 + 40,372

= $892,073

= $892.1 million

I have attached the Financial Statements of Acme Corporation.
