Answer:

D, confirmation bias

Explanation:

Confirmation bias is a form of cognitive bias that is defined as the tendency to interpret ,search, recall an information that confirms one's previous personal belief.

For example, if you suspect that a friend of yours is a thief after some things went missing a few times after he left you place and then someone else tells you he is also suspecting that same friend of being a thief, your confidence bias immediately connects both situations and then you believe your friend is a thief.

I hope this helps.

What is one example of a planned economy?
Daniel [21]

Answer:

socialist economy

Explanation:

A planned economy is a system where the government or the central authority makes all major economic decisions. The government decides on the type and quantities of goods to produce and for whom to produce. In the planned economy, factors of production belong to the government. Manufacture of goods and services is motivated by service to the community, not profits.

A socialist economy is a good example of a planned economy. Just like in a planned economy, a socialist economy is characterized by heavy government involvement. The state controls the factors of production. Public service is the reason for economic production, while consumers do not have the liberty to choose products.

Q 6.26: Howard Incorporated is determining ending inventory. In the inventory process, Howard inadvertently miscategorized a $6,
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

This error will decrease Howard's inventory by $6,000

Explanation:

Howard's inventory should include:

inventory on hand + goods purchased FOB shipping point + goods sold FOB destination point.

FOB shipping point means that the title of the goods is passed at the moment that they leave the seller's warehouse. FOB destination point means that the title of the goods is passed only after they have been delivered to the buyer's warehouse.

In this case, Howard purchased goods as FOB shipping point, so that means they should have been included in their inventory. Since they weren't, this error will decrease its inventory by $6,000.

Airline F leases all its aircraft under finance leases. Airline O leases all its aircraft under operating leases. Assuming that
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: e. Airline O has less lease assets at the inception of the lease

Explanation:

With operating leases, the entity leasing the asset or the lessee, does not get the rights to ownership of the asset being leased but instead simply pay a fee or sort of rent for leasing the asset.

With a finance lease however, ownership is passed to the lessee for the lease period and the lessee would have to depreciate the asset and record it in its books.

Airline O will therefore not record any assets but Airline F will. This means that Airline F will have more assets than O because it had to record its assets but O did not.

A new company to produce state-of-the-art car stereo systems is being considered by Jagger Enterprises. The sales price would be
dybincka [34]

<u>Solution:</u>

The price per variable unit is set at 1.5 times the cost; the VC / unit is estimated at $2.50.

Price = 2.5 * 2.50 = $6.25

Variable cost = $2.50

Fixed cost = $220,000

Break-Even Volume = Fixed cost / (Price - Variable cost)

                                  = $220.000 / (6.25 - 2.50)

Break-Even Volume = 58,667 units

Castillo Company has a defined benefit pension plan. At the end of the reporting year, the following data were available: beginn
Luda [366]

Answer:

$23,000

Explanation:

Before recording the journal entry, first we have to determine the pension expense amount which is shown below:

Pension expense = service cost + interest cost - expected return on plan assets

= $18,000 + $5,000 - $10,000

= $13,000

Now the journal entry would be

Pension expense A/c Dr $13,000

Plan asset A/c Dr $10,000

        To PBO A/c $23,000

(Being the annual pension cost is recorded)

All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
