Answer:

The civil court filing must be dismissed because of the constitutional right against double jeopardy.

Explanation:

Double jeopardy is the legal concept that protects a person from being tried again for the same or similar charge following his aquittal or conviction.

Fred Arden has been tried in criminal court and found innocent. Shawn is trying to sue him again for the same act in civil court.

This is against the rule of double jeopardy.

Effectus [21]

Answer:

$526 was the spending variance in November

Explanation:

The spending variance in the month involves knowing the difference between actual supplies cost incurred in the month and the budgeted supplies cost based on actual activity

Budgeted supplies cost based on actual activity of 608 frames=$1080+(608*$18)

Budgeted supplies cost based on actual activity of 608 frames=$1080+$10,944=$12,024

Spending variance=$12,550-$12.024 =$526

The actual spend was $526 more than the budgeted spend based on actual activity,hence an unfavorable variance was recorded
