Answer:

D. 7

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that they need to appoint a total of 7 outside board members to achieve board independence. This is because in order to achieve board independence the board needs to consist of more members that are not employees than those who are. This is because votes need to be made in accordance to what is best for the company and shareholders, which may not always be best for the employees. Therefore when voting the employees may be biased.

Answer:

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The engineering department estimates costs of $450,000 for the first year. It is estimated that if process and plant alterations are made, the waste treatment cost will decline $43,000 each year. As an alternative, a specialized firm, Hydro-Clean, has offered a contract to process the waste liquids for 15 years for $225,000 per year.

Year cost= 43,000

NPV= 734,061

Option B:

Yearly cost= 225,000

NPV= 1,936,368

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

a) Decrease goodwill by $13,000

Explanation:

In IFRS, whenever recoverable amount of a cash generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. After calculating an impairment loss, it is then allocated to the carrying amount of Cash generating unit's goodwill.

Impairment loss in this case is = Total carrying amount - Recoverable amount of CGU = $45,000 - $32,000 = $13,000. Hence, the impairment loss will be allocated to the carrying value of the goodwill, leading to decrease in goodwill by $13,000.
