Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

C) the accord or the original obligation.

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that Scott can sue Renee on the accord or the original obligation. This is mainly due to the fact that Renee did not pay the newer arrangement within the three days, and therefore owes Scott the total amount of $25,000 as was agreed by both in the original contract, but since Scott also agreed on the $21,000 he can decide which he would want to sue for.

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

d. 12.5%.

Explanation:

Price elasticity of supply measures the degree of responsiveness of quantity supplied to changes in price.

If the price elascitiy of supply is 0.4, it indicates that supply is inelastic. This means that a change in price has little effect on quantity supplied.

Price elasticity of supply = percentage change in quantity supplied / percentage change in price

0.4 = 5% / percentage change in price

percentage change in price = 12.5%

I hope my answer helps you.

The following transactions pertain to 2018, the first-year operations of Gibson Company. All inventory was started and completed
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

The preparation is shown below:

                                         Gibson Company

                                        Income statement

                                        For the year 2018

Particulars                                                    Amount

Sales (360 units × $25)                               $9,000

Less: Cost of goods sold                           -$7,200

Gross profit                                                 $1,800

Less:  rental fee                                          -$400

Less: administrative employees                -$350

Net income                                                  $1,050

The computation of cost of goods sold would be

= Materials used to produce inventory + production workers + rental fee for production equipment

= $4,700 + $2,400 + $900

= $8,000

So, the cost of goods sold would be

= $8,000 × 360 units ÷ 400 units

= 7,200

And, the ending balance of finished goods inventory would be

= $8,000 - $7,200

= $800

                                        Gibson Company

                                        Balance sheet

                                        For the year 2018

Liabilities                           Amount      Liabilities                           Amount

Common stock                $12,000       Cash                                  $12,250

Add: Retained earning   $1,050          Finished goods inventory $800

Total                                  $13,050      Total                                  $13,050  

The cash balance would be

Cash flow from Operating activities  

Sales                          $9,000

Less: cost of goods sold -$7,200

Less: admin expenses     -$750

Less: Increase in inventory -$800

Net Cash flow from Operating activities -$250

Cash flow from Investing activities  $0

Net Cash flow from Investing activities $0

Cash flow from Financing activities  

Issuance of common  stock $12,000

Net Cash flow from Financing activities $12,000

The computation of the cash balance

Net Cash flow from Operating activities $250

Net Cash flow from Investing activities $0

Net Cash flow from Financing activities $12,000

Cash balance                                            $12,250
