In line with the acrual concept of recognising expenses at the period they are due for payment. The staff bonus will be recognized as an expense to the income statement in 2017 and accrued as liability in the balance sheet if it's not paid.
The payment in 2018 will be a debit to the liability account and credit to the cash or bank account.
Answer:
Correctly ignored a sunk cost.
Explanation:
In economics a sunk cost is one that an individual has already paid for and cannot recover. For example when payment is made for rent it is no longer recoverable.
In this instance Eric has already bought a $50 ticket that is nonrefundable, nonexchangeable, and nontransferable. This is a sunk cost.
Eric wants to go to the concert with Ginny who he wanted to date for a long time.
He will correctly ignore the sunk cost of going to the play because any more time spent on the play will not help recover the $50 already spent.
Answer: Four pies.
Explanation:
Marginal cost is the additional cost of producing one extra unit of a good or service.
From this graph we see the marginal cost rise when the first pie is produced and then it subsequently decreases as the second and third pie is produced which is where it reaches its lowest point.
From the fourth pie, the marginal cost begins to rise again which means the marginal cost begins to increase when the producer makes four pies.
Answer:
Small individual investors will benefit the most.
Explanation:
From the case given, it can be established that small individual investors represent the bulk of shareholders or business owners.
Also, from Smith Jones stock, we see that Pension and Mutual Fund constitute a bulk in the share position, and the direct intervention of shareholders motivate the management.
From the foregoing analysis, the shareholders holders have thus seek to incorporate corporate governance in the organization as a tool to reduce the agency problem between business owners and management. By this, management objectives and the shareholders could be aligned. The business owners singular objective is the profit maximization of their wealth, while the management is interested in their job security, status, mutual funds, pension and all. Since this objective of management has been duly taken care of by the shareholders, it is believer that this will boost the management morale and ultimately improve their performance. The result is thus increase in organisational performance with resultant growth in profit, share price and returns from the business. These are benefits to the individual investors.
