With the given information and the possible impacts of a Hurricane, I would evacuate.

It is not just about the probability of a Hurricane having an impact on my house or property.

Hurricanes can be very damaging and cause billions of dollars of infrastructure damages and hundreds of lost lives.

I would keep a key eye on the force and category of the Hurricane and if its more than 3, I would make preparations to evacuate.

If fixed costs are $400,000 and the unit contribution margin is $20, how many units must be sold in order to realize an operatin
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

32,500 units must be sold to realize an operating income of $250,000.

Explanation:

a) Calculations:

Using the break-even plus target profit analysis, we can calculate the target quantity of sales that will generate a target profit.

To break-even, the company needs to sell the following quantity,

Break-even point = fixed costs/contribution margin per unit = $400,000/$20 = 20,000 units.

To achieve a target profit, the company needs to sell the following quantity,

Break-even with target profit = (Fixed cost + target profit)/contribution margin per unit = ($400,000 + 250,000) / $20 = $650,000/$20 = 32,500 units.

b) Break-even analysis is a managerial accounting technique for determining the units should a company can sell or produce in order to even revenue and costs.  From the analysis, a company can also determine the units to sell in order to realize a target profit.  This helps a lot in decision making.

A homeowner decides to rent a spare bedroom in her single-family house to a tenant for $500 per month. When a 24-year-old man as
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Should not be concerned

Explanation:

In the scenario being described, it can be said that the homeowner should not be concerned. That is because even though she did discriminate against the individual, Single-family homes rented without the use of a real estate agent or advertising are exempt from the federal Fair Housing Act. This holds true as long as the owner of the property does not own more than three homes at any given time. Therefore since there was no real estate agent, the man can't sue.

Indicate the effect of each of the following transactions on total assets, total liabilities, and total stockholdersâ equity. Se
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Transaction                       Assets            Liabilities        Stockholders' Equity

Issue common stock           Increase               NE                      Increase

Issue preferred stock         Increase               NE                      Increase  Purchase treasury stock     Decrease             NE                       Decrease

Sale of treasury stock         Increase              NE                        Increase  Declare cash dividend            NE                   Increase                   NE

Pay cash dividend               Decrease            Decrease NE

100% stock dividend              NE                        NE                      NE

2-for-1 stock split                    NE                       NE                         NE

When shares are sold or issued, they increase the stockholders equity as people buy these shares. They also increase assets because cash comes into the company when the shares are sold. This is why the Issuing of preference and common stock as well as the sale of Treasury shares had the same effects.

When cash dividends are declared, they become a liability that is owed to equity holders.

When these dividends are then paid, they remove the liability but reduce assets as cash is used to pay the dividends.

100% stock dividend reduces retained earnings but increases equity so stockholders equity does not change.

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

a. monopolistic elements in the economy will prevent an immediate sharp fall in prices as a result of decreasing demand

Explanation:

When there is recession the price of the factor goes down and with that, the insufficient demand for a certain good or services is eliminated. The reasoning is that the decrease in prices stimulates demand and adjust the market.

Keynes among other economist consider that unemployment increase during recessions because the nominal wages rate do not fall. As the union and worker do not want to see their wage decrease. Same is applied to prices which makes then inflexible in a downward direction.

While "supply creates its own demand" is "Says's Law" which is rejected in keynes main book "The general theory"

Hece option A is the only one which is true
