Answer:

B. 20,904

Explanation:

For computing the additional pens first we have to determine the contribution per unit which is shown below:

Revenue $500,000

Less: Plastic cost -$200,000

Less: ink cost -$1,000

Contribution margin $299,000

Divided by Number of units sold ($500,000 ÷ $2) $250,000

Contribution per unit $1.196

Now the additional pens required is

= $25,000 ÷ $1.196

= $20,904

Answer:

c. the cost of corporate advertising aired during the Super Bowl.

Explanation:

Financial statements show the financial position of a business for a given period, and the income statement compares revenue and expenses to get profitability of a business at a particular time.

Higado Confectionery Corporation has a number of store locations throughout North America. Since there is segmented income statement per store items like store manager salaries, store building depreciation expense and cost of goods sold at each store will appear in individual statements.

However when there is a corporate advertisement at the Superbowl all of the stores jointly benefit, so there will be a representation of this cost on all their income statements.

What piece of U.S legislation acts as the primary authority on collective bargaining
kramer
The main body of law governing collective bargaining is the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA). It is also referred to as the Wagner Act. It explicitly grants employees the right to collectively bargain and join trade unions. The NLRA was originally enacted by Congress in 1935 under its power to regulate interstate commerce under the Commerce Clause in Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution. It applies to most private non-agricultural employees and employers engaged in some aspect of interstate commerce. Decisions and regulations of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), which was established by the NLRA, greatly supplement and define the provisions of the act.

The NLRA establishes procedures for the selection of a labor organization to represent a unit of employees in collective bargaining. The act prohibits employers from interfering with this selection. The NLRA requires the employer to bargain with the appointed representative of its employees. It does not require either side to agree to a proposal or make concessions but does establish procedural guidelines on good faith bargaining. Proposals which would violate the NLRA or other laws may not be subject to collective bargaining. The NLRA also establishes regulations on what tactics (e.g. strikes, lock-outs, picketing) each side may employ to further their bargaining objectives.

State laws further regulate collective bargaining and make collective agreements enforceable under state law. They may also provide guidelines for those employers and employees not covered by the NLRA, such as agricultural laborers.

Which of the following statements is FALSE?A. The effect of compounding is great over short time periods, but then it begins to
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The false statement is letter "A": The effect of compounding is great over short time periods, but then it begins to decline as the horizon grows.

Explanation:

Interest on interest or Compound Interest is the money accrued out of an interest rate plus all the interest earned accumulated on a certain period of time. The compound interest can be calculated on a daily, monthly or yearly basis. If the frequency of the compound interest is set in shorter periods of time, it will be more beneficial for the investor.

In that sense, option letter "A" is false since interest on interest does not decline over time but increases.
