Paul Parrino purchased from Daves Professional Wheelchair Service a wheelchair manufactured by 21st Century Scientific, Inc. The

sales brochure from 21st Century Scientific stated that the wheelchair woulds erve [the buyer] well for many years tocome. Parrino had problems with the wheelchair within a few years and filed suit against Daves and 21st Century for breach of express warranty. Both defended on the grounds that the statement on years of service was puffery, not an express warranty. Are they right?

Answer:

In this case, 21st Century would probably win the lawsuit since its brochure never stated a specific amount of time, for example, 3, 5, or 10 years. So it cannot be considered an express warranty. Besides, the fact that the wheelchair actually lasted a few years (doesn't specify how many), it is more than consumer protection laws generally require.

Which of the following statements is (are) TRUE?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

III. If a competitive industry is in long-run equilibrium, a decrease in demand causes firms to earn negative profit because the market price will fall below average total cost.

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers who sell homogenous products.

All firms in a perfect competition earn zero economic profit in the long run because there are no barriers to entry or exit.

In the long run, equilibrium occurs at: P = LMC = LATC

If demand falls, prices would fall below average total cost and the firm would earn negative profit .

edna is the leading brain surgeon in the united states. she enters into a contract to perform a difficult brain operation on ben
wolverine [178]

An employement contract if Edna is unable to complete the procedure, another surgeon with the minimum degree of expertise required for the procedure must take over the contract.

This example’s procedure is risky and connected to a risky surgery that would be best handled by Edna. Since the contract was based on Edna’s experience, it cannot be transferred to someone with the lower level of expertise required for this activity.In this case, Edna, a renowned brain surgeon in the United States, signs a contract to operate delicately on Ben’s brain. Edna, who has a lot going on, wants to give Charles, a less experienced surgeon who would be doing his first procedure of this kind, this contract because she is so busy.Because the contract between Ben and Edna involves personal talent, Ben can object to and stop this assignment (brain surgery).Evidently, Edna’s position as the top brain surgeon in the USA can be attributed to her competence and professionalism. With this knowledge at his disposal, Ben decided to enter into a contract with Edna, a skilled brain surgeon.

Privett Company Accounts payable $ 30,000 Accounts receivable 35,000 Accrued liabilities 7,000 Cash 25,000 Intangible assets 40,
erica [24]

Answer:

$113,000

Explanation:

As we know ,

Working capital = Total current assets - total current liabilities

where,

Total current assets = Accounts receivable + cash + inventory + marketable securities + prepaid expenses

= $35,000 + $25,000 + $72,000 + $36,000 + $2,000

= $170,000

And, the total current liabilities = Accounts payable + accrued liabilities + short term notes payable

=  $30,000 + $7,000 + $20,000

= $57,000

Now put the values to the above formula

So, the value would  be equal  to

=  $170,000 - $57,000

= $113,000

vovikov84 [41]
Ian is a uniquely good position here: the truth happens to be one of the best explanations he could possibly give. The fact that he quit his job to look after his sick mother, assuming that his former employer has positive things to say about him, is a solid reflection of his character and a sign that he was out of the job market not due to a lack of options, but a need to take care of a sick family member.
Ian should tell the truth, and explain the decision thoroughly to demonstrate the kind of person he is to the prospective employer, and what his priorities are.
