Answer: The nation of Sorare

Explanation:

The Gini coefficient is a statistical measure that is used to measure income disparity/ inequality in a country.

The closer to zero the Gini coefficient is, the more equitable the income in a country is. Simply put, if more people in a nation have similar levels of income, the Gini coefficient will be smaller.

In the question, the nation of Sorare has two people earning a high amount of money while others make considerably less. This shows a high income disparity which means that the Gini coefficient here will be higher than in Melka where citizens mostly have similar incomes.

Raul wants to join the directors of World Trade but currently owns no shares in the company. He knows that no one else will help
erica [24]

Answer:

$294,412.8

Explanation:

In order to obtain a seat on the board of directors, Raul must hold more than 50 percent of the total number of outstanding shares if there are three open seats and straight voting occurs.

Total number of shares required = (46,000 ÷ 2) + 1

= 23000 + 1

= 23,001 shares

Market price of share = $ 12.80

Total amount = Total number of shares required × Market price of share

= 23,001 × $ 12.80

= $294,412.8

The amount Raul wants to invest on obtaining a seat on board of directors is $294,412.8

Answer:

warrant expense 51,000 debit

          cash                       6,000 credit

          warranty liability 45,000 credit

--to record warrant-related accounts--

interest payable 16,667 debit

interest expense  3,333 debit

          cash                  20,000 credit

--to record interest expense for the loan and installment--

Manufacturing Facilities 5,192,772  debit

              Cash                    5,000,000 credit

              Restoration Liability 192,772 credit

-- to record the payment to contractor--

Explanation:

Warranty: the additional expected expense are considered warranty laibility

Loan: we previously recorded accrued interest from March 1st to Dec 31th

That is: 200,000 x 10% x 10/12 months = 16,667 payable

At February 28th we recognize the last two month of interest

200,000 x 10% x 2/12 months = 3,333 expense

in total we have 16,667 + 3,333 = 20,000 cash outlay

Facility: the asset should add to all the cost necessary to acquire it:

As the conversion into community center is mandatory it is part of the cost:

present value of the 500,000 in ten years:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  $500,000.00

time  10.00

rate  0.10000

\frac{500000}{(1 + 0.1)^{10} } = PV  

PV   192,771.6447

Total cost:

5,000,000 cashg + 192,772 liability = 5,192,772
