Answer:

This is a case of low moral intelligence,option A.

Explanation:

Moral intelligence is the ability to differentiate right from wrong as well as acting based on what one thinks is right.

Moral intelligence is a function of one's uprightness and envisaging the consequences of an action.

All in all, the top executive should have known that the information about his stock performance is a classified information not meant for everyone's consumption,hence his moral intelligence at the lowest ebb.

Moore General Store purchased office supplies on account during the month of March for $5,000. Payment for the supplies will be
Helga [31]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

During March, office supplies purchased on account = $5,000

On March 1, the balance in the supplies account = $350

On March 31, supplies on hand = $310

Therefore,

$310 should appear on the company's March 31 balance sheet as Supplies.

Company's March income statement as Supplies Expense:

= Supplies, as on March 1 + Purchases - Supplies, as on March 31

=  $350 + $5,000 - $310

= $5,040

Companies Heidee and Leaudy are virtually identical in that they are both profitable, and they have the same total assets (TA),
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

e. Company Heidee has a higher ROE than Company Leaudy.

Explanation:

Return on equity measures how well the management of a business uses owner's equity to get returns. It is calculated by dividing net income by owner's equity.

That is

ROE= Net Income ÷ Owner's equity

Considering the accounting equation

Asset= Liability + Owner equity

Owner equity= Asset - Liability

From the equation when a company that take on more debt owner's equity will reduce.

The effect of reduction in owner's equity on Return on Equity is that it will increase the ratio, since owner's equity is the denominator.

In this scenario both companies have the same profit margin so if company Heidee has higher debt ratio it follows that it also has a higher ROE than Company Leaudy

One of the ways the Federal Reserve carries out its responsibilities for conducting monetary policy is by trying to affect the l
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: Option C - It is important for the Fed to maintain it's independence.

Explanation:

We will note that Obama met with Janet Yellen in march/april 2016 when he was still president and they discussed about different things like: the near and long-term growth outlook, the state of the labor market, inequality, and potential risks to the economy, both in the United States and globally.

However, they didn't discuss anything on monetary policy and interest rates. This was not because they didn't have enough time because they talked about so many things like i stated above.

It was also not because the president doesn't set interest rates as we all know it's the duty of the federal reserves to do that and also Yellen wasn't meeting obama for him to set interest rates. Also, it couldn't be because the federal reserve isn't a government organization because it is one.

So the only correct option would be that he didn't want to interfere or put pressure on Yellen and the federal reserves because they are meant to be independent.
