D.) Marginal cost is equal to average total cost. (Because when the average total cost is at its minimum, marginal cost is also at its minimum.)
<span>the trading of votes by members of congress to obtain passage of projects that are of interest to one another is referred to as: Logrolling
In logrolling, two or more Congress could create an agreement that each of them will give their vote to support the bills that pushed by each of them, so they collectively gained more power in the office.</span>

Answer:
a) Disclose in the notes
b) no Disclosure
c) Record a liability
Explanation:
There are three scenarios to be considered
1) It is reasonably possible that Huprey will lose a pending lawsuit. The loss cannot be estimable
First, premise is that Huprey Co. is facing a lawsuit and the possibility of a loss is most possible. If Huprey Co is able to recognize the amount of loss, then he would have been able to record a liability but the inability to estimate the loss means, the company can o<u>nly make appropriate disclosure in notes</u>
2)Huprey is being used for damages of $2 million. It is very unlikely (remote) that Huprey will lose the case.
This second premise is also a lawsuit on damages for $2 million, however, it is most reasonably acceptable that Huprey will win the lawsuit. As such there is no loss, that way there will be no disclosure in Huprey Co's books.
3. Huprey can reasonably estimate that a pending lawsuit will result in damages of $1.25 million, it is probable that Huprey will lose the case.
The probability of losing a case means that there will be a loss to be recorded in the books and since the damages are already estimable to be $1.25 million. Huprey Co should record a liability
Answer:
D) Stock prices of companies that announce increased earning in January tend to outperform the market in February.
Explanation:
The above is consistent with the Efficient Market Hypothesis. All others are a direct contravention.
<em>The efficient market hypothesis (EMH), also known as the efficient market theory, is a hypothesis that states that the prices of shares contain all information and that consistent alpha generation is impossible.</em>
According to the hypothesis, stocks always trade at their fair value on exchanges, making it impossible for investors to purchase undervalued stocks or sell stocks for inflated prices.
This means that it should not be possible to outperform the overall market through professional stock selection or market timing.
The only way according to EMH that an investor can obtain better returns is by purchasing riskier investments.
By implication, this also means that it is not possible to "beat the market" consistently on a risk-adjusted basis since market prices should only react to new information.
You would note that in the option D, earning (which is a key driver for demand of stock) is announced in one month. The natural reaction would be for the demand for that stock to surge in the next month.
