Answer:

The correct answer is letter "D": straight line.

Explanation:

Utility represents the satisfaction a person receives from the use of a good or service. In case there is a risk-neutral decision-maker, that individual is unlikely to vary the value he or she provides to the use of products to remain in a comfort zone. However, the utility could vary according to satisfaction the good or service provides in different situations.

Thus, if plotted in a graph, <em>the value representing the horizontal axis and the utility the vertical axis, there will be a straight line departing from the horizontal axis parallel to the vertical axis.</em>

Whole Foods Market ordered 12 cases of organic vegetable soup with a list price of $18.90 per case and 8 cases of organic baked
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: The answer is given below

Explanation:

a. What is the extended list price of the order?

This will be gotten by multiplying the number of cases with the price list. From the question, we are told that Whole Foods Market ordered 12 cases of organic vegetable soup with a list price of $18.90 per case and 8 cases of organic baked beans with a list price of $33.50 per case.

Organic vegetable soup:

= 12 × $18.90

= $226.80

Organic baked beans= 8 × $33.50

= $268

Total = $226.80 + $268

= $494.80

b. What is the total amount of the trade discount on this order?

We are told that the wholesaler offered Whole Foods a 39% trade discount. This will be:

= 39% × $494.80

= 39/100 × $494.80

= 0.39 × $494.80

= $192.972

c. What is the total net amount Whole Foods owes the wholesaler for the order?

The total net amount will be the total price of the order and the discount. This will be:

= $494.80 - $192.972

= $301.828

- Name the six business management perspectives that go beyond planning, controlling, and decision making?
wel

Answer 4:

Following are the six business management perspective:

  1. Ethical Stance
  2. Strategic aspects of the decision
  3. Risk Management
  4. CSR Aspect
  5. Process Management Aspects
  6. Leaders Perspective

Answer 5:

IMA stands for Institute for Management Accountants.

The IMA Statement of Ethical Professional Practice has listed following four standards for the professionals who are member of IMA to comply with:

  1. Competence: The member must be competent in his role in accordance to his experience, skills, knowledge, complying laws & regulation and always acting ethically.
  2. Confidentiality: Must not breach the confidentiality implied duty on him except in situations when disclosure of information is mandatory by law.
  3. Integrity: Must be straight forward and there must be no self interest in his dealings with the company and must considerably reduced.
  4. Credibility: Communicate the results with unbiased decision making.

Answer 6:

Because freedom does not means that our self interest is everything. We owe duty of care to people who rely on our acts. An accountant, auditor or internal auditor must act ethically or universally that benefits everyone without breaking the laws and ethical duties imposed by the professional bodies. If we go back to Enron case, we see that the External auditor was not acting in the public interest and as a result Enron which was the world's first $100 billion dollars company collapsed. The collapse of Enron bankrupt many pension companies which further affected the lives of the ordinary person in the USA. Furthermore, due to collapse of Enron, a lot of people withdraw the amount invested in Stock exchange. Dozens of companies and millions of people suffered from this unethical behaviour of professionals.

Answer 7:

Corporate Social Responsibility means that the company is just like an human being and its operations must not harm the environment, so this the least duty which the stakeholders expect from them. Being a good social beings, the companies must try to stable the environment situation in its surrounding and wherever its stakeholders live. For Example, The refinery companies have stopped poluting the oceans with their oil spills, now they have opted to newest technology that will eliminate the harmful effects of their oil spills and bring stability in the environment.

Another example includes the lower usage of natural resources. In UK it is the companies responsibility to reduce its natural resources usage which will lower the pollution. This additional care has a cost and may lead to lower competitiveness of the products so there must be a law globally that enforces to act socially responsible.
