alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Positive reinforcement and punishment.

Explanation:

In the Operant Conditioning Method proposed by B.F. Skinner (1904-1990), positive reinforcement refers to the set of actions individuals do to increase the behavior of other individuals. On the other hand, positive punishment aims to decrease behaviors in individuals by prompting undesirable stimuli.

Thus, <em>Jim is implementing positive reinforcement through incentives for workers meeting certain corporate goals and positive punishment by withholding those incentives from employees who get late, take long breaks or act unprofessionally</em>.

The following is the general ledger for ABC Company as of December 31, 20X1. Use this information to answer questions (1) throug
sweet [91]

Answer:

What is the amount of gross profit to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

Gross Profit = Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold

                    = $54,200 - 15,100

                    = $39,100

What is the amount of operating income (EBIT) to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

EBIT = Sales Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold - Operating Expenses

We have the following operating expenses:

Salaries expense $7,100

Rent expense = $4,900

Supplies expense = $1,300

Utilities expense = $4,800

Depreciation expense = $2,500

Total operating expenses = $20,600

Now we substract this figure from the gross profit we found above

EBIT = $39,100 - 20,600

        = $18,500

What is the amount of earnings before taxes (EBT) to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

EBT = Sales Revenues + Interest Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold - Operating Expenses - Non-Operating Expenses.

EBT = $54,200 + $1,400 - $15,100 - $20,600 - $2,100

      = $17,800

What is the amount of net income to be reported on ABC Company’s 12/31/X1 income statement?

Net Income = Sales Revenues + Interest Revenue - Cost of Goods Sold - Operating Expenses - Non-Operating Expenses - Tax Expense

We simply substract the Tax Expense ($3,700), from the EBT.

Net Income = $17,800 - $3,700

                   = $14,100
