Answer:
If isolationism has become outdated, what kind of foreign policy does the United States follow? In the years after World War II, the United States was guided generally by containment — the policy of keeping communism from spreading beyond the countries already under its influence. The policy applied to a world divided by the Cold War, a struggle between the United States and the Soviet Union.
With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, containment no longer made sense, so in the past ten years, the United States has been redefining its foreign policy. What are its responsibilities, if any, to the rest of the world, now that it has no incentive of luring them to the American "side" in the Cold War? Do the United States still need allies? What action should be taken, if any, when a "hot spot" erupts, causing misery to the people who live in the nations involved? The answers are not easy.

Answer:
B- affects the net realizable value of accounts receivable
Explanation:
The mechanics of the allowance method are that the initial entry is a debit to bad debt expense and a credit to the allowance for doubtful accounts (which increases the reserve). The allowance is a contra account, which means that it is paired with and offsets the accounts receivable account. When a specific bad debt is identified, the allowance for doubtful accounts is debited (which reduces the reserve) and the accounts receivable account is credited (which reduces the receivable asset). If a customer subsequently pays an invoice that has already been written off, then the process is reversed to increase both the allowance and the accounts receivable account, after which the cash account is debited to increase the cash balance and the accounts receivable account is credited to reduce the receivable asset.
You specify "beliefs" but it is not easy to separate out specific beliefs from practices and artifacts. Some are:
<span>Sacred stories: A creation myth
Scripture: A sacred text
Sacred Origins: Frequent reference to the origins of the group/sect
Others levels of reality/experience: The belief that this sensory world is not the only reality that exists
Art/Music: An artistic aesthetic or prohibition against iconography, art or music
Sacred Community: A worshiping community (rather than solitary individuals)Sacred Leaders: Religious "elites". These do not have to be priests but they have to be more learned or devoted religious practitioners as contrasted with the laity who do not devote the same amount of time to religious practice
Worship: Some form of prayer, chant, meditation or devotion
Ritual: Some repeated acts that are done on a weekly, annual or circumstantial (births, marriages, etc.) basis
Ethics: An ethical code that prescribes a correct way to live (this can be as short as The Golden Rule or as involved as canon law)Sacred Objects: These can be venerated, often it is scripture or some other kind of object or relic that is thought to be especially holy
Home Worship: Domestic religious practice & customs (a home altar, a photo of Jesus or crucifix, a mezuzah, a family Bible)Sacred Places: Many religions also have a practice of pilgrimage or travel to special places whether it is Mecca, Fatima, Lhasa, Benares or Israel
Sacred Time: Holy days, feast days or times of the day that are celebrated differently than ordinary time
Charity: Alms giving or charity work</span>
<span>Looking at "beliefs" or "faith" is a very Western way of looking at religion. With other cultures, it is not always a matter of what one believes but what one does and beliefs & practices reinforce each other. The current method of studying religion focuses on "lived religion" which doesn't look only at abstract philosophical systems but at how religion is lived and practiced on the ground by groups of people.</span>
