yulyashka [42]

Answer:

b. $461,820

Explanation:

The computation of the amount reported in the balance sheet is shown below:

But before that we need to find out the amortization of discount which is

= Purchased value of bond × interest rate of return - face value of bond × interest rate

= $456,200 × 10% - $500,000 × 8%

= $45,620 - $40,000

= $5,620

Now the amount reported is

= Purchased value + discount amortization

= $456,200 + $5,620

= $461,820

Hence, the option b is correct

uysha [10]

Answer:

Ricardo’s Theory of Comparative Advantage

Explanation:

Comparative advantage is the term used to define the ability of an individual, firm or country to produce a particular good or service at a lower opportunity cost than that if it’s competitors or trade partners. Opportunity cost is the benefit lost from the second best alternative.

When a country can produce a product more efficiently (i.e maximum output using minimum resources) than that of its trade partners, it is known as that it has absolute advantage in that product. India tends to have absolute advantage in both business processes outsourcing as well as producing agricultural commodities as it is mentioned that it can produce both of these more efficiently than the United States.

However, although it has absolute advantage in both, it is still less efficient in producing agricultural commodities when compared to business process outsourcing. In other words, if it attempts to produce agricultural commodities in-house, the benefit lost from the second best alternative: business process outsourcing is high. The opportunity cost is higher when it produces agricultural commodities than it is when it does business process outsourcing. Hence, due to the law of comparative advantage, it chooses to specialize in business process outsourcing and imports agricultural commodities.

Why is the primary sector important to the South African economy?​
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

However, the economy has been characterised by a structural shift in output over the past four decades.

Since the early 1990s, economic growth has been driven mainly by the tertiary sector – which includes wholesale and retail trade, tourism and communications. Now South Africa is moving towards becoming a knowledge-based economy, with a greater focus on technology, e-commerce and financial and other services.

Among the key sectors that contribute to the gross domestic product and keep the economic engine running are manufacturing, retail, financial services, communications, mining, agriculture and tourism.

Explanation:

South Africa’s economy has traditionally been in the primary sectors – the result of a wealth of mineral resources and favourable agricultural conditions.
