Answer:

i don't know if the is correct or not but I'll give it a shot at answering. most vehicles are powered by gasoline (obviously) but we often refer to it as gas although it isn't even a gas. it's a liquid, but humans just like renaming things i guess. anywho gasolines state of matter is NOT a gas but we just shortend it to "gas."

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

A corporation:

C. Is subject to federal income taxes on its earnings, whereas a partnership is not.

Explanation:

The other options fit a partnership more than a corporation. The chief advantages of a corporation over a partnership are the limited liability status of the shareholders of a corporation, which benefits all the shareholders and secondly, the corporation is a separate legal entity from the owners. This second advantage allows professional managers to lead the company. With respect to federal income taxes on the earnings, the corporation is taxed directly on its earnings and shareholders also pay taxes on their income from all sources (unless it is an S-corporation), while partners in a partnership enjoy pass-through taxation of their partnership earnings.

Which of the following is a period during which aggregate output, as measured by real GDP, declines

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

D. Recession

Explanation:

Aggregate output in an economy declines during a recession. This is because economic activities are declining. When such occurs GDP declines. This is different from stagflation in the sense that during a recession, only real GDP declines. However, in a stagflation, the fall in GDP also results to the increase in inflation. During recessions, economic activities are low so is price level.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

2021

revenue 2,666,667

we have cost for 2,000,000

income for 666,667

2022

revenue 3.278.400‬

cost 2,500,000

income 778.400‬

2023

revenue 2,054,933‬

cost 3,800,000

loss 1,745,067‬

Explanation:

2,000,000/ (2,000,000 + 4,000,000) = 1/3

in 2021 a third of the contract was complete therefore we recognize a third of revenue:

8,000,000 x 1/3 = 2,666,667

we have cost for 2,000,000

income for 666,667

2,500,000 / (2,500,000 + 3,600,000) = 0,4098

we recognize revenues for 40.98 of the total contract value.

8,000,000 x 40.98 = 3.278.400‬

cost 2,500,000

income 778.400‬

2023

we recognize the remaining revenue.

8,000,000 - 2,666,667 - 3,278,400 = 2.054.933‬ revenue

cost 3,800,000

loss 1,745,067‬

Agile project management involves ____ whereas traditional project management involves _______. Multiple Choice known and stable

Ainat [17]

Answer:

For comprehension purposes, I would write the question again with options attached below:

Agile project management involves ____ whereas traditional project management involves _______. Multiple Choice

a. known and stable scope, unknown requirements

b. high certainty, projects with unstable scope

c. projects with high predictability, project with unknown or unstable requirements

d. iterative and incremental delivery, upfront planning with high predictability

e. high uncertainty, projects with unknown requirements

The correct answer is option d. (iterative and incremental delivery, upfront planning with high predictability)

So, Agile project management involves iterative and incremental delivery whereas traditional project management involves upfront planning with high predictability.

Explanation:

Agile project management involves iterative and incremental delivery as Agile project management allows making changes to the product which then opens ways for iteration. Agile life cycles are composed of several iterations because of changes that might arise due to feedback during the production process of the project.

Traditional project management is highly predictable and it doesn't give room for changes as project cycles and stages are planned ahead. It's a rigid process.
