When considering barriers to international communication, companies should be aware that noise tends to increase the probability of effective communication. source effects can be beneficial for an international business when potential consumers in a target country have a bias against foreign firms. many international businesses try to promote positive source effects by deemphasizing their foreign origins. fewer firms vie for the attention of prospective customers in developing countries, thus the noise level is lower. research suggests consumers use country of origin when evaluating a product, when they have detailed knowledge of the product.

A representative from a prestigious industry association just emailed. She asks for your participation on an expert panel that will be held at an upcoming professional conference. The conference is not local, so it will require you to travel and stay several days in the conference location. The representative offers to pay for travel and lodgings for you and a guest to the conference. Which of the following responses would be most effective for helping you to make an ethical decision?a) Ask the representative to cover your expenses, but not your guest’s.b) Thank the representative and accept the offer to cover expenses of your participation.c) Ask the representative to cover travel expenses, but not hotel expenses.d) Ask the representative if this offer has been made to any others that she’s inviting.
Answer:
b) Thank the representative and accept the offer to cover expenses of your participation.
Explanation:
Since the representative asked for your participation on an expert panel that will be held at an upcoming international professional conference. The representative offered to pay for travel and lodgings for you and a guest to the conference.
The response that be most effective for helping you to make an ethical decision is to first of all, thank the representative and accept the offer to cover expenses of your participation.
As a sign of gratitude, you should thank them for the honor and privilege bestowed on you to be a part of the panel.
Also, having them offering to pay your travel and lodging costs would help you channel your energy into preparing and equipping yourself with necessary information and knowledge about the conference.
The management of Firebolt Industries Inc. manufactures gasoline and diesel engines through two production departments, Fabrication and Assembly. Management needs accurate product cost information in order to guide product strategy. Presently, the company uses a single plantwide factory overhead rate for allocating factory overhead to the two products. However, management is considering the multiple production department factory overhead rate method. The tollowing factory overhead was budgeted for Firebolt:
1 Fabrication Department factory overhead $557,750.00
2 Assembly Department factory overhead 57,550.00
3 Total $815,300.00
Direct labor hours were estimated as follows:
Fabrication Department 4,850 hours
Assembly Department 5,050
Total 9,900 hours
In addition, the direct labor hours (dlh) used to produce a unit of each product in each department were determined trom engineering records, as follows:
Production Departments Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Fabrication Department 31 dlh 2.1 dlh
Assembly Department 2.1 3.1
Direct labor hours per unit 5.2 dlh 5.2 dlh
a. Determine the per-unit factory overhead to the gasoline and diesel engines under the single plantwide factory overhead rate method, using direct labor hours as the activity base. If required, round all per-direct labor hours and per-unit answers to the nearest cent.
b. Determine the per-unit factory overhead allocated to the gasoline and diesel engines under the multiple production departmnet factory overhead rate method, using direct labor hours as the activity base for each department. If required, round all per-unit answers to the nearest cent.
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fabrication Department factory overhead $557,750
Assembly Department factory overhead $257,550
Total $815,300.00
Direct labor hours:
Fabrication Department 4,850 hours
Assembly Department 5,050
Total 9,900 hours
Production Departments Gasoline Engine Diesel Engine
Fabrication Department 3.1 dlh 2.1 dlh
Assembly Department 2.1 3.1
Direct labor hours per unit 5.2 dlh 5.2 dlh
A) First, we need to calculate the plantwide overhead rate:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= (815,300/9,900)
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $82.35 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead to each product:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Gasoline= 82.35*5.2= $428.22
Diesel= 82.35*5.2= $428.22
B) We need to calculate the overhead rate for each department:
Fabrication:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 557,750/4,850= $115 oer direct labor hour
Assembly:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 257,550/5,050= $51 oer direct lbor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Gasoline:
Allocated MOH= 115*3.1 + 51*2.1= $463.6
Diesel:
Allocated MOH= 115*2.1 + 51*3.1= $399,6
Explain three types of production technology defined by James D. Thomson and discuss what kind of structure (Mechanic Vs. Organic) best suits each of them?
Answer:
The three types of production technology defined by James D. Thomson are;
1. Long-linked technology
2 Mediating technology and,
3. Intensive technology.
Explanation:
James D. Thomson proposed that different types of technology would determine the organizational strategy used by some organizations. A Mechanistic structure is an organizational structure that requires a high degree of formalized and centralized activity. An Organic organizational structure is very dynamic and programmed to easily adapt to change. Three of the technology types proposed by him include;
1. Long-linked Technology- These are jobs that require an organized sequence. Task A is completed before task B and then Task C. They require formalization and an average level of complexity. An example is mass production of goods. It is an organic structure because changes can easily occur and it would therefore require dynamism.
2.Mediating Technology- These are jobs that unite the two different aspects of an organization, namely, the input and output units. They require low complexity and high formalization. An example is in the banking industry where peoples input and output are simultaneously attended to. It is a mechanistic structure because it requires a very formal arrangement.
3. Intensive Technology- These are jobs that give specialized care to different types of problems. It can be found in the hospital setting. It requires high complexity and low formalization. It is a mechanistic structure because of the specialized care rendered and the high level of interdependence of the units involved .
Herzberg's motivational factors and Maslow's esteem and self-actualization needs are similar. Explain how organizations can meet these needs.
Answer:
Organizations can meet the human needs identified by Maslow by studying and implementing the motivational factors specified by Herzberg.
The similarity of Herzberg's motivational factors and Maslow's esteem and self-actualization needs is addressed by the following questions: "What do people really want from their work?" "How do organizations go about meeting these needs or ensuring that the needs are met?"
The answer is in the awareness of what workers want from the work they carry out for organizations. As Maslow stated, people generally have five human needs: physiological needs, safety needs, social belonging, self-esteem, and self-actualization (later described as transcendence). It is only when the basic needs (physiological needs, safety needs, and social belonging and love needs) are satisfied in that order, that workers would seek self-esteem and self-actualization or transcendence. It is also at this level of seeking self-esteem and self-actualization that organizations would derive the greatest benefits from their workers. It then behoves organizations to ensure that the basic needs are not denied, but to push forward to help their workers attain self-esteem and self-actualization.
Herzberg's motivational factors show that it is the responsibility of organizations to ensure that their workers achieve a sense of achievement in the work they do. They should also be recognized for doing good jobs. The nature of the work should be such that it does not demean the worker. There should be dignity of labor. Workers achieve more when they are made responsible for the outcome of their work. Being assigned responsibilities help them to advance and and grow. Organizations also need to manage well the extrinsic job elements that Herzberg identified as "hygiene factors," which concentrate on the work environment.
Explanation:
a) Frederick Herzberg identified certain job factors that bring about employee job satisfaction whereas others can create job dissatisfaction. According to Herzberg, "motivating factors (also called satisfiers) are primarily intrinsic job elements that lead to satisfaction, such as achievement, recognition, the (nature of) work itself, responsibility, advancement, and growth." The dissatisfiers, on the other hand, he called "hygiene factors." They are "extrinsic elements of the work environment such as company policy, relationships with supervisors, working conditions, relationships with peers and subordinates, salary and benefits, and job security, which can result in job dissatisfaction if not well managed." An interesting result of Herzberg’s studies was that "the opposite of satisfaction is not dissatisfaction." Herzberg's studies established that proper management of hygiene factors could prevent employee dissatisfaction, but that these factors could not serve as a source of satisfaction or motivation. The summary is that motivational factors are quite distinct from hygiene factors.
b) Maslow identified the following hierarchy of human needs: physiological needs, safety needs, social belonging, self-esteem, and self-actualization (later described as transcendence). The hierarchy of needs, according to Maslow, show how humans essentially partake in behavioral motivation. The summary of Maslow's hierarchy of human needs is that "people are motivated to fulfill basic needs before moving on to other, more advanced needs."

TRADE SECURITIES can be defined as the securities which have been purchased or bought by a company for the sole aim of realizing a short-term profit.
Hence, Companies do not always intend to keep such securities for a long period of time which is why they will only invest it if t they believe or thought they have a good chance of being compensated for the risk. they are taking which is why TRADE SECURITIES always includes both debt securities and equity securities.
Mendrisio Company purchased a piece of machinery for $30,000 on January 1, 2019, and has been depreciating the machine using the sum-of-the-years'-digits method based on a five-year estimated useful life and no salvage value. On January 1, 2021, Mendrisio decided to switch to the straight-line method of depreciation. The salvage value is still zero and the estimated useful life is changed to a total of six years from the date of purchase. Ignore income taxes.
Requirements:
a. Prepare the appropriate journal entry (if any) to record the accounting change (include the account and the dollar amount; no abbreviations!)
b. Prepare the journal entry to record depreciation for 2018.
Answer:
a. There is no entry required to record the accounting change
b. The journal entry to record depreciation for 2021 would be as follows:
Debit Credit
Depreciation Expense $3,000
Accumulated Depreciation $3,000
Explanation:
According to the given data we have the following:
Sum of year digits=5(5+1)/2

Depreciation for year 2019=$30,000*5/15
Depreciation for year 2019=$10,000
Depreciation for year 2020=$30,000*4/15
Depreciation for year 2020=$8,000
Therefore, book value as on january 1, 2021=$30,000-$10,000-$8,000
book value as on january 1, 2021=$12,000
Revised useful life=6 years-2 years=4 years
Therefore, Revised depreciation for 2021=$12,000/4
Revised depreciation for 2021=$3,000
a. There is no entry required to record the accounting change
b. The journal entry to record depreciation for 2021 would be as follows:
Debit Credit
Depreciation Expense $3,000

ReVitalAde produced 13,000 cases of powdered drink mix and sold 12,000 cases in April 2018. The sales price was $ 29, variable costs were $ 12 per case ($ 9 manufacturing and $ 3 selling and administrative), and total fixed costs were $ 100,000 ($ 91,000 manufacturing overhead and $ 9,000 selling and administrative). The company had no beginning Finished Goods Inventory.
Required:
1. Prepare the April income statement using variable costing.2. Determine the product cost per unit.
Answer:
1. Profit = $204,000.
2. Product cost per unit = $12 per unit.
Explanation:
1. Prepare the April income statement using variable costing.
Details $
Revenue ($29 * 12,000) 348,000
Total variable cost of unit sold ($12 * 12,000) 144,000
Profit 204,000
2. Determine the product cost per unit.
Total variable cost of production = $12 * 13,000 = $156,000
Total fixed cost of production = $100,000
Total cost of production = $156,000 + $100,000 = $256,000
Product cost per unit = $256,000 / 13,000 = $12 per unit.
Suppose the market for computer chips is dominated by two firms: Intel and AMD. Intel has discovered how to make superior chips and is considering whether or not to adopt the new technology. Adoption would entail a fixed setup cost of C but would increase revenues. However, if Intel adopts the new technology, AMD can easily copy it at a lower setup cost of C/2. If Intel adopts and AMD does not, Intel would earn $20 in revenues while AMD would earn $0. If Intel adopts and AMD does likewise, each firm will earn $15 in revenues. If Intel does not adopt the new technology, it will earn $5 and AMD will earn $2. a. Write this game in extensive form. b. Under what conditions (i.e., for what values of C) does AMD have an incentive to adopt the new technology if Intel introduces it
Answer:
Explanation:
See the figure below.
b. AMD's payoff from adopting must exceed its payoff from not adopting. This is true if 15 - C/2 > 0. Solving for C, we find that AMD has an incentive to adopt if Intel adopts whenever C < 30.
c. No. When C = 12, AMD's best strategy is to adopt if Intel adopts, which means Intel would earn only 3by adopting. By not adopting, Intel can earn a payoff of 5; Intel's best option is not to adopt. This is the only Nash equilibrium, and it is also a subgame perfect Nash equilibrium
On January 1, 2012, Piper Co., purchased a machine (its only depreciable asset) for $600,000. The machine has a five-year life, and no salvage value. Sum-of-the-years'-digits depreciation has been used for financial statement reporting and the elective straight-line method for income tax reporting. Effective January 1, 2015, for financial statement reporting, Piper decided to change to the straight-line method for depreciation of the machine. Assume that Piper can justify the change.
Piper's income before depreciation, before income taxes, and before the cumulative effect of the accounting change (if any), for the year ended December 31, 2015, is $500,000. The income tax rate for 2015, as well as for the years 2012-2014, is 30%.
Required:
A) What amount should Piper report as net income for the year ended December 31, 2015?
O $120,000
O $182,000
O $308,000
O $350,000
Answer:
Piper should report $308,000 as net income for the year . Option C
Explanation:
Accumulated Depreciation till 2014 = [$600,000×(5+4+3)] ÷ 15 = $ 480,000
Book Value at beginning 2015 = $600,000 - $480,000 = $120,000
Depreciation Expense in 2015 = $120,000 ÷ 2 = $60,000
Net Income before depreciation & taxes = $ 500,000
Depreciation = $ 60,000
Electronic Benefits Transfer = Net Income before depreciation & taxes - Depreciation
= $ 500,000 - $ 60,000
=$ 440000
Tax Expenses = $440,000 × 30% = $132,000
Net Income =$ 308,000

Explanation:
Sorrento Skies Corporation issues 16.000 shares of $100 par value preferred stock for cash at $120 per share. The entry to record the transaction will consist of a debit to Cash for $1.920,000 and a credit or credits to a. Preferred Stock for $1,920,000. b. Paid-in Capital from Preferred Stock for $1.920,000 c. Preferred Stock for $1,600,000 and Retained Earnings for $320,000 d. Preferred Stock for $1,600,000 and Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Preferred Stock for $320,000
Answer:
The correct option is D,credit to Preferred Stock for $1,600,000 and Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par-Preferred Stock for $320,000
Explanation:
The total par value of the preferred stock issue is $100 multiplied by 16,000 which gives $1,600,000 while the remaining $20 per share multiplied by 16,000 that gave rise $320,000 goes to the credit of paid-in capital in excess of par-preferred stock account.
Option A is wrong because the preferred has a par value of $100 hence the total cash proceeds cannot be posted to preferred stock account alone.
Option B is wrong because the excess of $20 per share cannot be posted to retained earnings since it is net income
On January 1, 2016, Kendall Inc. began construction of an automated cattle feeder system. The system was finished and ready for use on September 30, 2017. Expenditures on the project were as follows:
January 1, 2016 $200,000
September 1, 2016 $300,000
December 31, 2016 $300,000
March 31, 2017 $300,000
September 30, 2017 $200,000
Kendall borrowed $750,000 on a construction loan at 12% interest on January 1, 2016. This loan was outstanding throughout the construction period. The company had $4,500,000 in 9% bonds payable outstanding in 2016 and 2017.
Interest capitalized for 2017 was ?
Answer:
$86,805
Explanation:
For computing the interest capitalized for 2017 we need to do following calculations
Average accumulated expenditures for year 2016 is
= (Jan 1 expenditure × number of months ÷ total number of months) + (Sep 1 expenditure × number of months ÷ total number of months) + (Dec 31 expenditure × number of months ÷ total number of months)
= (200,000 × 12 ÷ 12) + (300,000 × 4 ÷ 12) + (300,000 × 0 ÷ 12)
= 200,000 + 100,000 + 0
= $300,000
Now
Interest capitalized for 2016 was:
= (Jan 1 expenditure × number of months ÷ total number of months) + (Sep 1 expenditure × number of months ÷ total number of months) + (Dec 31 expenditure × number of months ÷ total number of months) × interest on construction loan
= (200,000 × 12 ÷ 12) + (300,000 × 4 ÷ 12) + (300,000 × 0 ÷ 12) × 12%
= $300,000 × 12%
= 36,000
Now
Average accumulated expenditures for 2017 was:
Accumulated expenditure in 2016 is
= (Jan 1 expenditure + Sep 1 expenditure + Dec 1 expenditure + interest capitalized) × number of months ÷ total number of months
= (200,000 + 300,000 + 300,000 + 36,000) × 9 ÷ 9
= (836,000) × 9 ÷9
= 836,000
And,
March 31, 2017 = 300,000 × 6 ÷9 = 200,000
September 30, 2017 = 200,000 × 0 ÷ 9 = 0
So,
Average accumulated expenditures for 2017 was
= 836,000 + 200,000 + 0
= 1,036,000
Finally
Interest capitalized for 2017 was:
Specific borrowing is
= 750,000 × 9 ÷ 12 × 12%
= 67,500
Therefore
Excess = (Accumulated expenditure in 2017) – (Total borrowing in 2016)
= (1,036,000 - 750,000) × number of months ÷ total number of months × bond payable discount
= 286,000 × 9 ÷ 12 × 9%
= 19,305
Hence,
Interest capitalized for 2017
= 67,500 + 19,305
= 86,805
Seadrill Engineering sold software to oil-drilling firms. In addition to providing the software, the company also provides consulting services and support for 5 years to ensure smooth operation of the software. The total transaction price is $350,000. Based on standalone values, the company estimates the consulting services and support have a value of $150,000 and the software license has a value of $250,000. Seadrill generally records software sales using Sales Revenue account and consulting service using Service Revenue account. Assuming the performance obligations are not interdependent, the journal entry to record the transaction includes:A) a credit to sales revenue for $250,000 and a credit to unearned service revenue of $100,000.B) a credit to service revenue of $100,000.C) a credit to unearned service revenue of $100,000.D) a credit to sales revenue of $350,000.
Answer:
a credit to sales revenue for $250,000 and a credit to unearned service revenue of $150,000
Explanation:
The Journal entry is shown below:-
Cash Dr, $400,000
To Sales revenue $250,000
To unearned service revenue $150,000
(Being cash receipts is recorded)
The unearned revenue from service is the revenue in which the customer has paid the money, and the company does not provide the services. Acceptance of the money for the warranty which has been extended. The seller expects to continue to provide the services.The income will not be gained from this, because the company will not be reported until the company refuses to deliver the services in the future.
For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the sales revenue and unearned service revenue as it increased the revenue and liability
This is the answer but the same is not provided in the given options

Gould Corporation uses the following activity rates from its activity-based costing to assign overhead costs to products:
Activity Cost Pool Activity Rate
Setting up batches $59.06 per batch
Processing customer orders $72.66 per customer order
Assembling products $3.75 per assembly hour
Data concerning two products appear below:
Product K91B Product F65O
Number of batches 86 57
Number of customer orders 36 50
Number of assembly hours 490 897
Required:
How much overhead cost would be assigned to Product K91B using the activity-based costing system? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Total allocated overhead= $9,532.42
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Activity Rate
Setting up batches= $59.06 per batch
Processing customer orders= $72.66 per customer order
Assembling products= $3.75 per assembly hour
Product K91B
Number of batches 86
Number of customer orders 36
Number of assembly hours 490
To allocate overhead, we need to use the following formula on each activity rate:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Setting up= 59.06*86= 5,079.16
Processing= 72.66*36= 2,615.76
Assembling= 3.75*490= 1,837.5
Total allocated overhead= $9,532.42
Landen Corporation uses a job-order costing system. At the beginning of the year, the company made the following estimates:
Direct labor-hours required to support estimated production 150,000
Machine-hours required to support estimated production 75,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 420,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per direct labor-hour $ 4.60
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 9.20
During the year, Job 550 was started and completed. The following information is available with respect to this job:
Direct materials $ 195
Direct labor cost $ 288
Direct labor-hours 15
Machine-hours 5
Required:
1. Assume that Landen has historically used a plantwide predetermined overhead rate with direct labor-hours as the allocation base. Under this approach:
a. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate.
b. Compute the total manufacturing cost of Job 550.
c. If Landen uses a markup percentage of 200% of its total manufacturing cost, what selling price would it establish for Job 550?
2. Assume that Landen’s controller believes that machine-hours is a better allocation base than direct labor-hours. Under this approach:
a. Compute the plantwide predetermined overhead rate.
b. Compute the total manufacturing cost of Job 550.
c. If Landen uses a markup percentage of 200% of its total manufacturing cost, what selling price would it establish for Job 550?
(Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your Predetermined Overhead Rate answers to 2 decimal places and all other answers to the nearest whole dollar
Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Estimated Direct labor-hours= 150,000
Estimated machine-hours= 75,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead cost $ 420,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per direct labor-hour $ 4.60
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 9.20
Job 550:
Direct materials $ 195
Direct labor cost $ 288
Direct labor-hours 15
Machine-hours 5
1. To calculate the estimated manufacturing overhead rate we need to use the following formula:
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 420,000/150,000 + 4.6
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $7.4 per direct labor hour
Job 550:
Total cost= 195 + 288 + (7.4*15)= $594
Selling price= 594*2= $1,188
2) Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 420,000/75,000 + 9.2
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= $14.8 per machine-hour
Job 550:
Total cost= 195 + 288 + (14.8*5)= $557
Selling price= 557*2= $1,114
Photo Co. operates four film developing plants in upstate New York. The four plants are identical. They employ the same production technology, process the same mix, and buy raw materials from the same companies at the same prices. Wage rates are also the same at four plants. In reviewing the operating results for December, the newly hired assistant controller, Mike, became quite confused over the numbers.
Plant A Plant B Plant C Plant D
Number of Rolls processed 50,000 55,000 60,000 65,000
Revenue ($000s) $500 $550 $600 $650
Less:
Variable costs (195) (242) (300) (298) (352)
Fixed costs (300) (300) (300) (300)
Profit (loss) $5 $8 $2 $2
Mike remembered from his Accounting class that as volume increases, the average fixed cost per unit falls, and so Mike expected Plant D to be more profitable that Plants A and B. But numbers show just the opposite.
Required:
1. Write a concise memo to Mike to help him understand what is going on and to eliminate his confusion.
Justify your points with appropriate calculations.

1. Which of the costs incurred by Gonzo Co. should be capitalized to the building account?
2. What is the subsequent carrying amount of the building?
Answer:
1. The cost to be capitalized to building account is $343,600
2. The subsequent carrying amount of the building is $873,600
Explanation:
1. In order to calculate the which of the costs incurred by Gonzo Co. should be capitalized to the building account we would have to use the following formula:
cost to be capitalize=Major improvement to the plumbing+Added a loby
cost to be capitalize=$109,000+$234,600
cost to be capitalize=$343,600
The cost to be capitalized to building account is $343,600
2. To calculate the subsequent carrying amount of the building we have to use the following formula:
subsequent carrying amount=Historical cost+improvements-Accumulated Depreciation
subsequent carrying amount=$970,000+$343,600-$440,000
subsequent carrying amount=$873,600
The subsequent carrying amount of the building is $873,600
Bob is a recognized french horn player. Bob has played for several major symphonies. Last year Bob went through bankruptcy and in order to pay his rent for a couple of months took out loans from a small bank - Avarice Bank - and pledged his french horn as collateral. He was unable to make the first payment on the loan so the bank was getting ready to take the french horn for non-payment. Bob approached the director of the Gilroy Philarmonic International Symphony - Joe - for help - asking him to guarantee payment so he does not lose his french horn. Joe agreed to guarantee the payment - partially because Bob is scheduled as the featured performer at the Classic Polka Festival in Gilroy which Joe manages. Joe called Avarice Bank and said if Bob could not pay, he would, and Avarice accepted his guaranty by phone. Bob played for the Polka Festival (it was very successful), but immediately after, left town and his whereabouts are unknown. Avarice has contacted Joe and indicated they have not collected from Bob and they expect Joe to pay the debt. Joe told Avarice they did not have anything in writing from him (though there are witnesses who heard Joe guarantee payment) and he believes he will not be liable for Bob's debt. Avarice has indicated it will file suit for payment against Joe.
A. Issue: What is the legal issue/dispute?
B. Support: Provide support for your decision. Describe what the law says about situations like this, and how it applies to this case.
Answer:
Explanation:
Issue - Does guarantee on phone for a debt payment is valid and enforceable in a court of law.
Decision - The guarantee is a contract and needs to be in writing and should bear the signatures of the parties in order to be enforceable. In this case, the guarantee for the debt repayment by Bob was given by Joe on phone, which does not fulfil the requirement of the contract to be enforceable.Hence the bank would not succeed in claiming payments from Joe.
Support - Guarantee for repayment of debt is a contract that authorises the creditor to recover the money from the guarantor if the debtor defaults on payment. However, the guarantee contract should be in writing ( in legal systems of most of the countries) and should be signed by the guarantor. In absence of a written contract and signature of the guarantor, the contract can't be enforced in a court of law, which is in this case. The bank should have insisted only on the written and signed consent of guarantee from Joe. As it did not, it can't hold him liable for the breach of guarantee contract.
Potatoes cost Janice $1.25 per pound, and she has $5.00 that she could possibly spend on potatoes or other items. If she feels that the first pound of potatoes is worth $1.50, the second pound is worth $1.14, the third pound is worth $1.05, and all subsequent pounds are worth $0.30, how many pounds of potatoes will she purchase? What if she only had $2.00 to spend?
Janice will purchase with her original $5.00 of income.
Janice will purchase when her income is $2.00
Answer:
1 pound is the correct answer to the given question .
Explanation:
AS the Janice is priced at the cost of $1,50 for the 1 pound of potatoes also the cost of the $1,14 for the second pound of the potatoes .
It simply means that if the cost is $1.25 per pound for the Potatoes , it provides the market excess from the 1 pound of the potatoes but the average willing to spend the drop below the second pound cost of Potatoes .
So Janice will purchase with the original $5.00 of income. as well as the income is $2.00 for the [tex]1 \ pound[/tex]

Laura Bryant joined Kellogg's straight after university in 2002. She joined the Field Sales team initially. This involved visiting five to ten supermarkets a day to develop relationships at a local level. After two years her hard work was rewarded and she was promoted to Customer Marketing Manager at Head Office. This helped to raise her profile as she wanted to move into marketing. With support from her manager, Laura made the transition from Sales to Marketing as Assistant Brand Manager on Rice Krispies and Frosties. In 2009 she was promoted again to manage the marketing plan for Special K and she is now Brand Manager for Kellogg's Cornflakes. The company has helped motivate her to climb the hierarchy of needs and achieve her career ambitions. Identify and explain the theory of motivation applied by the manager at Kellog’s company. Identify each level and support your answer from examples from the case. Herzberg's motivational factors and Maslow's esteem and self-actualization needs are similar. Explain how organizations can meet these needs.
Answer: The answer is provided below
Explanation:
The theory of motivation that is applied by the manager at Kellog’s company is Hertzberg's two factor theory.
Hertzberg divided needs into two categories which are the hygiene factors and motivating factors. The hygiene factors are factors that are essential to work, hygiene factors do not work as motivating factor but absence will lead to dissatisfaction. Hygiene factors include salary, safe working environment, break time, etc.
Motivating factors are factors that motivates the employees to work harder. Motivating factors lead to satisfaction among the employees and they include responsibility, growth, status, recognition, achievement, etc.
In this scenario, Hertzberg motivating factor theory was used. The manager helped Laura Bryant climb the corporate hierarchy. At first, she was a sales field worker, she was then promoted after 2 years to customer marketing manager post. This helped Laura enter the marketing field after which she was promoted again to help manage marketing plan of special K.
Recognition, responsibility, social status, and growth are all motivating factors that were applied by the manager in this scenario. Laura is satisfied and motivated and the manager here helped her to reach her goals and grow over the years.
Herzberg's motivational factors and Maslow's esteem and self-actualization needs are similar and can be met by organizations in the following ways:
• Management should give employees challenging and complex tasks as this tends to motivate workers.
• Recognition and appreciation: Employees are motivated when they are recognised and appreciated for their work. When employees are recognised, they tend to put in more effort at their workplace and work harder.
•Decision making: Employers should allow their employees participate in the decision making process of the organization.
• Growth opportunities: Employees must be provided with opportunities that allow them grow. This can help in taking their career up and be more productive for the company.
Hertzberg motivational factors theory and Maslow self esteem and self actualisation needs are identical because both needs are satisfied by growth, power, recognition, appreciation, responsibility, and social status.

5. False: The number of issued shares is always greater than or equal to the number of authorized shares. It is false because the number of issued shares is always less than or equal to the number of authorized shares.
6. False: A journal entry is required for the authorization of capital stock. It is false because journal entry is not required for the authorization of capital stock but for issuance.
7. False: Publicly held corporations usually issue stock directly to investors. It is false because publicly held corporations issue stock indirectly to investors via investment banking institutions while privately held corporations issues stock directly.
8. True: The trading of capital stock on a securities exchange involves the transfer of already issued shares from an existing stockholder to another investor.
9. False: The market price of common stock is usually the same as its par value. It is false because there isn't any relationship between market value of common stock and its par value.
