Answer:

D

Explanation:

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

$960

Explanation:

For computing the accumulated depreciation, first we have to compute the depreciation expense which is shown below:

= ($9,600) ÷ (5 years)  

= $1,920

This is a full year depreciation but we have to find out for June 30,2017 i.e 6 months

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

26,920

Explanation:

At $10 par value,

Number of authorized shares = 30,000 (given)

Number of issued shares = $270,000/$10 = 27,000 shares

Number of treasury shares = $1,200/$15 = 80 shares

Since Treasury shares do not form part of outstanding shares, they will be deducted from issued shares to obtain outstanding shares

Therefore, number of outstanding shares

= 27,000 - 80

= 26,920 shares

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

It involves the various strategies used to hire employees to meet business needs in a cost-effective way.

The construction division has a highly seasonal workload, with fewer projects in the winter than in the summer. Also, different expertise is needed for different kinds of buildings. So hiring a permanent workforce is counterproductive as they will be paid when there is no work to be done. The best strategy is to hire temporary workers. Also there is need for specialised staff to work on specific projects.
