Answer:

Business; competitors; secret; readily available; difficult; reasonable efforts.

Explanation:

A trade secret is a formula, device, process, method, or compilation of information that, when used in business, gives the owner an advantage over competitors who do not know the secret information.

In addition to considering the competitive advantage, a court will consider whether the information was, readily available and difficult (and/or expensive) to obtain, when determining whether something is a trade secret. Another important consideration is whether the company made reasonable efforts to protect it.

For example, the recipe and ingredients used in the manufacturing of popular soft drinks and alcoholic beverages is a trade secret that isn't known to many people around the world.

Aaron Company uses the periodic inventory cost flow method. If Aaron's ending inventory is understated due to an accounting erro
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

a. net income= understated, retained earnings= understated

Explanation:

In accounting and auditing it is established that ending inventory and net income moves in the same direction when it comes to being overstated or understated. That implies that if <u>ending inventory is understated</u>,  then cost of goods sold will be overstated by the same amount, and when costs are overstated it finally leads to <u>net income and gross profit being understated.</u>

Furthermore, since it is the net income that will be added to retained earnings thereafter, it implies that the lesser the net income the lesser will be retained earnings. Hence, understatement of ending inventory is understatement of net income and also retained earnings.

The country of Leverett is a small open economy. Use the information provided below to answer the following questions about nati
oee [108]

Answer:

Explanation:

When Leverett's exports became less popular, its savings, Y-C-G does not change. Reason being that, it is assumed that Y depends on the amount of capital and labour, consumption depends only on disposable income and government spending is a fixed extrinsic variable.

Since investment depends on interest rate, and Leverett is a small open economy that takes the interest rate as given, thus investment also does not change . Neither does net export change (This is shown by the S-I curve in the attachment).

The decreased popularity of Leverett's exports leads to an inward shift of the net export curve inward. At the new equilibrium,net exports remains unchanged, though the currency has depreciated.

Leverett's trade balance remained the same, despite the fact that its exports are less popular, this is due to the fact that  the depreciated currency provides a stimulus to net exports which overcomes the unpopularity of its exports by making them cheaper.

b. Leverett's currency now buys less foreign currency, thus traveling abroad  becomes more expensive. This is an instance showing that imports (including foreign travel) have become more expensive- as required to keep net exports unchanged in the case of decreased demand for exports.
