Zielflug [23.3K]3 years ago

Answer:

Yes, because the corporation remains liable to the owner under the contract

Explanation:

The above answer is true because in this case, there is no limit to the assignment of the contractual rights between the two parties, hence this assignment of a contract would be treated as both an assignment of rights and a delegation of duties.

Therefore, while the corporation in this case has delegated its duties and assigned its rights under the contract to the developer by assigning the contract to the developer, the corporation is still considered to be liable to the owner for payment of the purchase price.

And given the fact that the developer is not as creditworthy as the corporation, and thus there is a greater chance that the developer will be unable to pay the purchase price, the owner has the rights under the contract arrangement to contractually compel the corporation to do so.

In a perfectly competitive industry, influence over price is exerted by
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

(C) the forces of supply and demand

Explanation:

In a perfectly competitive industry, no single buyer nor seller will be able to influence prices thus marking the forces of demand and supply (the invisible hand) the determinant of pricing. Each buyer or seller will only account for a minute portion of total demand and supply thus making their influence of market price insignificant.

Options (A), (B) and (D) are incorrect as the largest firms, individual sellers and individual buyers do not influence pricing over price in a perfectly competitive market.

Gables purchased used Mercedes from a German company. The cars were built for the German market and met its safety and pollution
Mazyrski [523]

Answer: (E) none of the other choices

Explanation:

None of the options are correct in the above question.

The USA extends Most Favoured Nation Status to most countries in the world including Germany so that would not be a reason for the car's not to pass through customs.

The cars could indeed be a threat to national security. Just because they come from a safe country does not mean that they were not tampered with. They need to be properly inspected.

They are indeed a source of competition for US automakers but that would be no reason to stop them. Perhaps tariffs could be applied on them but they will not be stopped.

There is no provision in US Customs practices that prohibits the importation of used cars solely because they are used cars therefore it will not be a reason to halt the car's going through customs.

None of the options are therefore correct.

A company assigns overhead using a plantwide rate. If total estimated manufacturing overhead is $900,000 and the total estimated
ozzi

Answer:

Overhead  application rate

= <u>Budgeted overhead</u>

  Budgeted machine hours

= <u>$900,000</u>

  30,000 hours

= $30 per machine hour

Overhead cost assigned to the product

= Overhead application rate x Actual machine hours  

= $30 x 12,000 hours

= $360,000                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                

Explanation:

In this case, there is need to determine the overhead application rate, which is the ratio of budgeted overhead to budgeted machine hours.

Then, we will obtain the overhead cost assigned to the product by multiplying the overhead application rate by actual machine hours.
