B. Calculation to Show how the preceding items would be reported in the current liabilities section of Byrd's December 31, 2016, balance sheet.

BYRD COMPANY

Balance Sheet (Partial)

December 31, 2016

Current liabilities

Accounts payable 58800

Notes payable 60000

Interest payable 40

Dividends payable 20000

Total current liabilities $ 138840

C. computation for the current ratio at the end of 2016

Using this formula

Current ratio = Current assets/Current liabilities

End of 2015: 2.4 = $1200000/Current liabilities

Current liabilities = $1200000/2.4 = $500000

End of 2016: Current assets = $1200000 + $60000 = $1260000

Current liabilities = $500000 + $58800 + $60000 + $20000 + $40 = $638840

Now let calculate the Current ratio

Current ratio = $1260000/$638840

Current ratio= 1.9

Therefore Byrd's current ratio at the end of 2016 is 1.9

Complete Question:

Which method of entering a foreign market has a domestic firm actively managing a foreign company or overseas facility?

Group of answer choices

A. joint venture

B. direct ownership

C. exporting

D. licensing

E. contract manufacturing

Answer:

B. Direct ownership.

Explanation:

Direct ownership is a method of entering a foreign market that has a domestic firm actively managing a foreign company or overseas facility.

Generally, it considered to be a good option when there exist similarities between the domestic and foreign cultures and when political risks associated with the market are very minimal or little.

However, direct ownership is considered to be the riskiest method of entering a foreign market and it typically requires more commitment from the business owner than any other method of entering a foreign market such as joint ventures, exporting, licensing, contract manufacturing, piggybacking, franchising etc.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Max is a waiter at a coffee shop. He gets paid $100 every day at 9 p.m. regardless of the number of customers he serves during the day. In this scenario, max's payment is based on the fixed-interval schedule. Hence, option C is correct.

<h3>What is fixed-interval schedule?</h3>

In fixed-interval schedules, the first reaction is only rewarded when a predetermined amount of time has passed. With this schedule, reactions are quicker toward the end of the interval but slower immediately following the reinforcement.

A child may receive a candy as part of a fixed-ratio program after reading three to ten pages of a book.

Thus, option C is correct.
