Answer:
B). Response bias
D). The interviewer should reword the question.
Explanation:
Response bias is described as the type of bias in which a variety of tendencies are displayed by the respondents to answer the questions asked in the survey inaccurately or misleadingly. These false responses eventually lead to a false or deceiving conclusion. In the given survey, 'response bias' is displayed as the respondents may display a tendency to answer the question falsely as the feeling of 'patriotism' evoked by the word 'patriotic' may prevent their original opinions to come out. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer to describe the bias in this survey.
In order to prevent this bias, the interviewer must 'reword the question' and remove the word 'patriotic' as it develops the feeling of patriotism in the respondents which mars them from answering accurately and share their true opinions or thoughts in the regards of 'supporting armed forces.' This rewording will help evoke the true and authentic responses without any bias. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer to remedy the bias.
Answer: c. Foster Inc.'s assets will decrease by a net amount of $30,000.
d. The Company's liabilities will increase by $30,000.
Explanation:
From the question, Foster, Inc., bought a truck by paying $5,000 and then borrowed the remaining $30,000 that was required to complete the transaction.
Since the company borrowed $30,000, this will lead to an increase in the liability of the company by $30,000. Also, it will lead to a reduction in the net assets of the company by a net amount of $30,000
