Answer:

B) $500

Explanation:

Individual taxpayers can only deduct certain losses regarding their property, specially those that are related to their business activity (Talbot used the laptop solely for business purposes). The only other case when an individual can deduct some property loss is when they suffer a theft or an incident like a fire, tornado, flood, etc.

In this case, Talbot paid $1,500 for the laptop and sold it at $1,000, therefore he can deduct a loss of $500 from his gross income.

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Just-in-time  inventory management

Explanation:

Just-in-time or JIT is an inventory management approach that encourages the purchase of materials only when they are needed in the production process. The JIT approach eliminates the need for storing large quantities of material for future productions. The acquisition of materials is aligned with the production process.

By adopting JIT, a business saves on inventory costs as materials are not purchased in bulk. Wastage that results from the storage of material is also eliminated. The success of JIT depends on management ability to forecast sales accurately and working with reliable suppliers.
