1. fixed and indirect
2. variable and direct
3. variable and direct
4. fixed and indirect
5. fixed and indirect

Explanation:
<u>Fixed and variable costs</u>
A fixed cost is expected to be constant for a short term period whilst a variable cost is expected to vary in direct proportion to the number of units produced in this case it is the individual classes.
Depreciation expense on classroom building and on computers is a fixed cost that is expected to remain constant and the instructor wage varies with the number of classes thus a variable cost.
<u>Direct and Indirect costs</u>
A direct cost can be directly traced to the cost object by observation whist the indirect cost can not be directly traced on a cost object.
The instructors wage is a direct cost, his effort is seen with the success of the classes whist the depreciation expenses are indirect costs.
Answer:
$40,000 per year; $37,500 per year; $40,000.
Explanation:
From the question above, we are given the following parameters; Alpha Firm offers a salary = $40,000 per year + no bonuses, "Beta Firm offers a base salary of $35,000 per year with a 25% chance that you will receive an annual bonus of $10,000".
So, to answer the question,the expected salary of working for Alpha Firm will surely be = $40,000 per year.
At Beta Firm the expected salary is = $35,000 + 0.25($10,000) = $37,500.
Therefore, if I was risk neutral, the expected value of the year bonus offered by Beta Firm would need to be at least $40,000 for me not to be indifferent to the choice between the two options.
Answer:
1. Breast cancer is the fifth most common cause of cancer death. Positive statement
2. For women aged 60 to 69, breast cancer screening significantly reduces breast cancer mortality. Normative statement
3. Doctors should encourage women aged 60 to 69 to be screened for breast cancer. Normative statement
4. The government should force doctors to encourage women aged 60 to 69 to be screened for breast cancer. Normative statement
Explanation:
Normative statement usually expresses a value judgment. They are opinion based. It depicts whether the given statement is desirable or not. Statements 2, 3 and 4 are normative statements because they are giving values and passing judgement about when women should be screened breast cancer. It gives age group reference 60 to 69.
Positive statement are fact based. Just like statement 1 which gives the fact that breast cancer is fifth most common cause of cancer death.
Answer:
The correct answer is A. late start date.
Explanation:
The slack of the Project is the margin of movement that the Project has. It will allow us to know where and when the Project may be at risk of impact and implement the appropriate measures
.
- Total Project Slack: is the amount of time a Project activity can be delayed without delaying the Project end date.
- Project Free Slack: The amount of time that a Project activity can be delayed without delaying its successor's early start date.
- The Project slack: is the time that a Project can be delayed without delaying the deadline imposed for its completion.
- Positive slack: late dates are greater than early, time frame beyond the early end to conclude the activity.
- Negative slack: late dates will be less than early, indicating a delay from the scheduled end.
- Zero Slack: the early and late dates for each activity are the same, this implies that the activity is critical, it belongs to the critical path of the Project.
