Beach City received a gift of corporate stock valued at $1,200,000 on the date of the gift. The donor specified that the princip

al amount of the gift be maintained in perpetuity, but that earnings can be used to acquire works of art to improve the appearance of public buildings. All changes in fair value are to increase or decrease the principal amount of the gift.
Assuming that Beach City uses a permanent fund to account for the endowment and a special revenue fund to account for the earmarked earnings from the endowment, explain the accounting process for:

(1) receipt of the original gift.
(2) receipt of quarterly dividends.
(3) notification that fair value of the original stock increased by $3,000 during the year.
(4) the effect on fund balances of closing temporary accounts at year-end (Note: Ignore the effects of the transactions at the government-wide level).

If the closing point/world bank index ratio is constant, what would the world bank index have been for yen yesterday?
alukav5142 [94]

To solve for the World Bank index for yen yesterday we should first look at Yen’s current standing. So today the World Bank Index of yen is 0.38 and the constant World Bank Index is 0.40 with -0.03 a day. So for today’s index we have 0.38/0.40=0.95. To compare it with yesterday’s x/0.43=0.95. Which will give us the answer that x=0.4085 or 0.41.

astra-53 [7]
A programmed decision is one where we use past experience to take the next step, while non-programmed decisions are more unique and specific to the situation. One decision that I would like to share is the one where I had to buy my car and the decision process I went through. It would come under programmed decision as I was completely assisted by past experiences from my boyfriend who had the same history of exploring different options. The model that describes this decision would be the “classical” model as the information is available. The other decision I would like to share is the one where I had to take decision on my future after my bachelor’s degree. The final decision was to pursue further studies in USA but this decision is more of non-programmed nature and it is very specific based on the situation. The third decision <span>that I would like to share would be that of choosing Rich land College as my destination.</span>

Catamount Inc. employs one worker to load packages on an outgoing truck. The work shift is an 8 hour day. Trucks arrive at the l
DerKrebs [107]

Answer and Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follow:-

a).Work shift per day = 8 hours

Average of arriving trucks = 40

Loading time of workers = 8 min.

Earning of truck drivers = $20

Earning of workers = $18

If the truck drivers are engaged for one station, the cost may be focused on truck drivers in the system at a certain point. But if it's not, then the cost in the line must be dependent on truck drivers, since that's the best approximation of scope.

b). Hourly Cost for this System =Truck Driver Cost × No. of Trucks in an Hour + Worker Hourly Cost

= $20 × (60 ÷ 8) + $18

= $20 × 7.5+ $18

= $168

c). If they add additional dock. Then Their Total Cost in an hours

= $168 ×2

= $336 (because both worker take similar time so simultaneously 2 truck can be loaded)

If the cost doubles, the average no. of trucks service doubled too along with the ability of company to send out delivered trucks. So option 2 is better.
