Jenae's study ignored the fact that only some of her coffee choices had caffeine, even though her co-workers preferred caffeinat

ed coffee. Therefore, Jenae decided to label one type of decaffeinated coffee as having caffeine to see what would happen. As she anticipated, this coffee became more popular with her co-workers, and they claimed that the extra boost of caffeine helped them focus on their work. The growing popularity of the decaffeinated coffee among co-workers, under the false impression that it gave them extra caffeine, is an example of ________.

Aliun [14]

Answer:

See explanation section

Explanation:

(a) December 1     Cash             Debit    $18,000

                        Unearned revenue      Credit    $18,000

<em>Note: The company received the money in advance for a contract to do during December to April. Therefore, they received cash while a liability increased due to receiving advance money.</em>

(b) December 31   Unearned revenue     Debit    $3,600

                            Service revenue           Credit    $3,600

<em>Note: As the company started performing, after the completion of 1st month, i.e., December 1 to December 31, the advance money started expiring because of providing services. Moreover, as the service is performed evenly for 5 months, the 1st month's revenue = $(18,000/5) = $3,600.</em>

For a binomial experiment with r successes out of n trials, what value do we use as a point estimate for the probability of succ
trapecia [35]

Answer: \dfrac{r}{n}

Explanation:

If r is the number of successes out of n trials , then the sample proportion of success = \hat{p}=\dfrac{r}{n}

For binomial experiment , if the population probability of success p on a single trial is not given , then the best point estimate for probability of success p on a single trial is the sample proportion of successes.

i.e. a point estimate for the probability of success p on a single trial :

p=\hat{p}=\dfrac{r}{n}

Hence, a point estimate for the probability of success p on a single trial = \dfrac{r}{n}

The manager at Vertical Wire Productions reported total sales revenue of $800,000. The variable expenses were $600,000, and ther
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

BEP_{dollars} = 500,000

Explanation:

<u>The first step</u> will be  get the contribtuion margin:

Sales\: Revenue - Variable \:Cost = Contribution \:Margin

800,000 - 6000,000 = 200,000

This is the amount after variables cost used to pay the fixed cost and make a gain.

Second, we calcualte the contribution margin ratio

\frac{Contribution \:Margin}{Sales\: Revenue} = Contribution\: Margin\: Ratio

200,000/800,000 = 0.25

Per dollar of sales 25 cents are available to pay the fixed cost.

Now, we calculate the break even point in dollars

\frac{Fixed\:Cost}{Contribution\: Margin \:Ratio} = Break\: Even\: Point_{dollars}

\frac{125,000}{.025} = 500,000

Waterway Industries purchased a depreciable asset for $837300 on January 1, 2018. The estimated salvage value is $84000, and the
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

$222,100

Explanation:

Cost = $837,300

Residual value = $84,000  

Useful life = 9 years  

Now,  

Annual straight line depreciation = \frac{Cost-Residual Value}{Useful life}  

Annual straight line depreciation = \frac{837,300 - 84,000}{9}  

Annual straight line depreciation = \frac{753,300}{9}  

Annual straight line depreciation = $83,700

Accumulated depreciation for three years i.e., 2018, 2019 and 2020 would be:

Accumulated depreciation = 3 × $83,700

Accumulated depreciation = $251,100

Book value (at the end of year 2020) = Cost - Accumulated depreciation  

Book value (at the end of year 2020) = $837,300 - $251,100

Book value (at the end of year 2020) = $586,200

Revised useful life = 5 years

No. years asset has been used = 3 years

Remaining useful life = 2 years

Revised salvage value = $142,000

Therefore, depreciation expense for the remaining three year would be:

Revised depreciation expense = \frac{Book value at the end of 2020 - Revised residual Value}{Remaining useful life}  

Revised depreciation expense = \frac{586,200 - 142,000}{2}  

Revised depreciation expense = \frac{444,200}{2}

Revised depreciation expense = $222,100
