A) placing others into decision-making positions.
B) removing inefficient or ineffective representatives.
C) casting one's ballot on Election Day.
D) influencing decisions affecting one's life.
Answer:
D) influencing decisions affecting one's life.
Explanation:
Pluralism is an American theory of governance that states that political power is controlled by several groups of people and not the citizens as a whole. These several groups of people constitute organizations, activists, environmentalists, and other impactful groups who seek recognition and acceptance from the populace and who make decisions that affect the citizens. One attribute of Pluralism is the fact that no single elite or groups of elites control decision making in governance.
The groups of people have powers that are limited in scope and regulated by competition with other groups. Moreso, these groups seek approval from the populace and that is why opinion polls, surveys, elections, etc., are carried out in order to ascertain which entities are more popular with the people.

Omega's policy is to have 30% of the following month's sales in inventory. On January 1, inventory equaled 8,000 units. February production in units is:
Answer: d. 36,000
Explanation:
February Production Units = Sales + Closing Inventory - Opening inventory
Closing Inventory
= 30% of following month's sales
= 30% * March sales
= 30% * 50,000
= 15,000
Opening Inventory February = Closing inventory for January
= 30% * February sales
= 30% * 30,000
= 9,000
February Production Units = Sales + Closing Inventory - Opening inventory
= 30,000 + 15,000 - 9,000
= 36,000

At the beginning of 2023, the Mackinac Company purchased a machine for $510,000 (salvage value of $60,000) that had a useful life of 6 years. The bookkeeper used straight-line depreciation, but failed to deduct the salvage value in computing the depreciation base. Depreciation has been recorded through 2025. The errors were discovered on 1/10/26; the 2025 books are still open. Correcting journal entries would include what entry to 1/1/25 Retained Earnings?
Answer:
$10,000 credited
Explanation:
DATA
Machine cost = 510,000
Salvage value = $60,000
Useful life = 6 years
Depreciation = $60,000/6years
Depreciation = $10,000
It means that we have overstated depreciation expense for the year with the amount of $10,000.
Retained earnings will be credited by $10,000 As the depreciation expense was overstated mistakenly by $10,000

Larry Nelson holds 1,000 shares of General Electric common stock. The annual shareholders meeting is being held soon, but as a minor shareholder, Larry doesn’t plan to attend. Larry did not sell his shares but gave his voting rights to the management group running GE. Larry must have signed a that gives the management group control over his shares. Larry also holds 2,000 shares of common stock in a company that only has 20,000 shares outstanding. Currently, the company’s stock is valued at $43.00 per share. The company needs to raise new capital to invest in its future production activities. The company is anticipating issuing 5,000 new shares at a price of $34.40 per share. Larry worries about the value of his investment. Larry’s current investment in the company is worth $ . If the company issues its new shares and Larry makes no additional investments in the company, then his investment will be worth $ . This scenario is an example of . Larry could be protected if the firm’s corporate charter includes a provision. If Larry exercises the provisions in the corporate charter to protect his stake, his investment value in the firm will become
Answer:
Larry must have signed a PROXY AGREEMENT that gives the management group control over his shares.
A proxy agreement is generally used for stockholders voting procedures, they basically grant another person the right to vote on behalf of another stockholder.
Larry's current investment in the company is $86,000.
= 2,000 stocks x $43 = $86,000
If the company issues new shares and Larry makes no additional purchase, Larry's investment will be worth $82,560.
company's new market value = (20,000 x $43) + (5,000 x $34.40) = $1,032,000
new stock price = $1,032,000 / 25,000 stocks = $41.28
= $41.28 x 2,000 = $82,560
This scenario is an example of STOCK DILUTION.
The stock price will lower because the increase in the company's value is less than proportional to the increase in the number of stocks.
Larry could be protected if the firm's corporate charter includes a PREEMPTIVE provision.
Preemptive rights give current stockholders the right to purchase more stocks (in case the company issues more stocks) before any outside investors.
If Larry exercises the provisions in the corporate charter to protect his stake, his investment value in the firm will become $103,200.
= [(5,000 / 10) x $34.40] + $86,000 = $17,200 + $86,000 = $103,200
A local county is considering purchasing some dump trucks for the trash pickups. Each truck will cost $55,000 and have an operating and maintenance cost that starts at $18,000 the first year and increases by $3,000 per year. Assume the salvage value is $12,000 at the end of 5 years and the interest rate is 10%. The equivalent annual cost of owning and operating each truck is most nearly equal to

The smartest thing a firm involved in an oligopoly market could do is to cut their prices and capture more of the market share from their competitors.
a) We learned in class that the best move would be to raise prices.
b) We also learned that cutting prices on an elastic demand curve will be a smart way of getting more revenues.
c) Cutting prices is no gaurantee of success. Indeed if the firm does capture more market share and customers, then their costs will go up and it will be harder for them because they will have lower profit margins - if they can earn any profit at all.
d) Both A and C are correct.
Answer:
Correct Answer:
c) Cutting prices is no gaurantee of success. Indeed if the firm does capture more market share and customers, then their costs will go up and it will be harder for them because they will have lower profit margins - if they can earn any profit at all.
Explanation:
An oligopoly market is a market form wherein a market or industry is dominated by a small group of large sellers. A pure monopoly maximizes profits by producing that quantity where marginal revenue = marginal cost. however, it is much more difficult for an oligopoly to determine at what output it can maximize its profit.

Lacy's Linen Mart uses the average cost retail method to estimate inventories. Data for the first six months of 2021 include: beginning inventory at cost and retail were $60,000 and $120,000, net purchases at cost and retail were $312,000 and $480,000, and sales during the first six months totaled $490,000. The estimated inventory at June 30, 2021, would be:
Answer: $68,200
Explanation:
Estimated inventory = Difference between Goods available for Sale at Retail Price and Actual Sales made * Cost Retail Ratio
Retail value of Goods Available for Sale
= Retail Price of Beginning Inventory + Retail price of Purchases
= 120,000 + 480,000
= $600,000
Difference between Goods available for Sale at Retail Price and Actual Sales made
= 600,000 - 490,000
= $110,000
Cost to retail price ratio
= (Cost of Beginning Inventory + Cost of Purchases) / (Retail Price of Beginning Inventory + Retail Price of Purchases)
= (60,000 + 312,000) / (120,000 + 480,000)
= 62%
Ending inventory
= 110,000 × 62%
= $68,200

Bronco Corp. has decided to establish a subsidiary in Taiwan that will produce stereos and sell them locally in the country. It expects that its cost of producing these stereos will be one third the cost of producing them in the United States. Assuming that its production cost estimates are accurate, is Bronco‘s strategy sensible? Explain.
Answer:
No
Explanation:
Based on the description provided it can be said that Bronco's strategy is not sensible. This is because Bronco Corp. has recognized an advantage of producing stereos in Taiwan as opposed to the U.S but this is only an advantage if they sell those same stereos that were produced in the Taiwan subsidiary to the U.S. markets. Otherwise they will be selling the stereos at a much lower price in the Taiwan market, which will ultimately not be an advantage.

Note: This is an example of annuity. An annuity can be described as a series of payments made or income received at equal intervals.
Therefore, the relevant table in the question is the second table, i.e. table for the present value of an annuity of $1 at compound interest.
To calculate the present value (PV), the following for formula is used:
PV = ACI * PVA10% ............................ (1)
PV = Present value = ?
ACI = Annual cash inflows = $6,000
PVA = Present value of annuity of $1 at 10% for 4 years = 3.170
Note that the PVA is obtained for year 4 at 10% from the second table as already explained above.
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
PV = $6,000 * 3.170
PV = $19,020
Therefore, the correct option is option b. $19,020.

Factor Company is planning to add a new product to its line. To manufacture this product, the company needs to buy a new machine at a $620,000 cost with an expected four-year life and a $34,000 salvage value. All sales are for cash, and all costs are out-of-pocket, except for depreciation on the new machine. Additional information includes the following. (PV of $1, FV of $1, PVA of $1, and FVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided. Round PV factor value to 4 decimal places.) Expected annual sales of new product $ 2,190,000 Expected annual costs of new product Direct materials 494,000 Direct labor 686,000 Overhead (excluding straight-line depreciation on new machine) 476,000 Selling and administrative expenses 174,000 Income taxes 30 % Required: 1. Compute straight-line depreciation for each year of this new machine’s life. 2. Determine expected net income and net cash flow for each year of this machine’s life. 3. Compute this machine’s payback period, assuming that cash flows occur evenly throughout each year. 4. Compute this machine’s accounting rate of return, assuming that income is earned evenly throughout each year. 5. Compute the net present value for this machine using a discount rate of 4% and assuming that cash flows occur at each year-end. (Hint: Salvage value is a cash inflow at the end of the asset’s life.)
Answer:
1) depreciation expense per year = $146,500
2) net income:
years 1 - 4 = $149,450
net cash flows:
year 0 = -$620,000
year 1 = $295,950
year 2 = $295,950
year 3 = $295,950
year 4 = $329,950
3) payback period = 2.09 years
4) accounting rate of return = 24.1%
5) net present value (NPV) = $483,330.83
Explanation:
purchase cost of the machine $620,000
depreciation expense per year = ($620,000 - $34,000) / 4 = $146,500
expected annual sales $2,190,000
direct materials $494,000
direct labor $686,000
overhead (excluding depreciation) $476,000
S&A expenses $174,000
total costs (excluding depreciation) = $1,830,000
income taxes 30%
net income per year = ($2,190,000 - $1,830,000 - $146,500) x 70% = $149,450
net cash flow (years 1 - 3) = $149,450 + $146,500 = $295,950
net cash flow (year 4) = $149,450 + $146,500 + $34,000 = $329,950
payback period = $620,000 / $295,950 = 2.09 years
accounting rate of return = $149,450 / $620,000 = 24.1%
NPV, using a financial calculator = $483,330.83
why must we always boil our drinking water during and after a cyclone has passed
Answer:
Sometimes following a disaster, a boil water alert is issued for areas connected to mains scheme water because the mains water may be unsafe to drink or cook with.
If a boil water alert has been issued, it is essential you follow this warning to prevent illness.
To prepare water for drinking and food preparation, you should heat the water to a rolling boil for at least 1 minute using a stove or kettle and then allow it to cool. This will help to kill any bacteria.
Be sure to keep children clear from any boiling water until the water has cooled down to room temperature.
Once it has cooled it should be placed in the fridge in a clean container with a lid.
Under no circumstances should you drink or cook with water that has not been boiled until the alert is lifted.
Alternatively you can use bottled water.

For an oil and gas limited partnership (LP), allowances in the form of deductions are allowed by the IRS to be taken to compensate for a depleting resource. The allowance can be taken based on
Answer:
The allowance can be taken based on:
a reduction (production) of the oil and gas reserves.
Explanation:
A limited partnership's allowance for depletion is a special form of depreciation used to account for the gradual reduction in the value of natural resources based on their usage or consumption. There are two methods for recognizing depletion of natural resources. They are the cost depletion method, which is based on usage, and the percentage depletion method, which is a percentage of gross earnings. Then, depletion is different from depreciation, in that depreciation is for tangible assets, while depletion is for natural assets.
