Explanation:

Factors of production can be defined as the fundamental building blocks used by individuals or business firms for the manufacturing of finished goods and services in order to meet the unending needs and requirements of their customers.

The four factors of production are;

I. Land: this refers to the natural resources and raw materials extracted from the ground or grown in the soil e.g oil, gold, rubber, cocoa, etc.

II. Labor (working): this is the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

III. Capital resources: it includes the physical assets used for production of goods and services such as equipment, money, plant, etc.

IV. Entrepreneurship: it is intellectual capacity required to drive a business and the skills to develop an idea into a money making venture (business).

In this scenario, George owns four dry cleaning stores in the suburbs of Orlando, Florida. He recently updated his STP analysis and has finished adjusting his marketing mix based on the STP results. His next strategic marketing decision will most likely involve determining how to allocate resources among his four stores.

Sage Company had cash receipts from customers in 2020 of $137,920. Cash payments for operating expenses were $84,990. Sage has d

Triss [41]

Answer:

sales revenue for the period: $ 143,900

operating expenses: $ 78,000

Explanation:

We solve for sales using the account recievable identity:

beginning account receivable + sales - collection = ending account receivable

12,330 + sales - 137,920 = 18,310

sales = 137,920 + 18,310 - 12,330 = 143,900

Then, for operating expenses, we have a prepaid expenses thus unexpired and therefore, not expenses under accrued accounting.

we solve like this:

beginning prepaid expenses 19,800

payment on expenses 84,990

total expenses payment 104,790

We now subtract the prepaid (unexpired) to get the amount accrued for the period:

104,790 - 26,790 = 78,000
