Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Semi-indirect.

Explanation:

In business writing, there are three main approaches to how to provide messages to an audience: direct strategy, indirect strategy, and semi-indirect strategy. The direct strategy places the purpose or conclusion of the message at first followed by the details of that idea. Using the indirect strategy, instead, implies starting the message with the details to finish with the central idea. The semi-indirect strategy is used when the main idea of the message is given in the middle of the speech and is surrounded by details at the beginning and the end.

In the excerpt, the main idea is:

"The new procedure for ordering supplies will be effective March 1";

which appears in the middle of the paragraph. Therefore, the speaker used the semi-indirect messaging strategy.

What do you think policymakers expected would happen when they deregulated the trucking industry?

monitta

Deregulation is the process of taking government power out of a particular industry. If there were deregulations within the trucking industry there would be more competition within. Not only that, there would be less rules to make sure the truckers are following their weight limited, aren't carrying things that they shouldn't be or are illegal. if the trucking industry was not regulated there would be a tougher time in making sure stores were delivered goods as needed.

harkovskaia [24]

The journal entry, to record the sale of the treasury shares on February 1, would include:

a) debit to a loss account for $112,500

b) credit to Treasury Stock for $90,000

c) credit to a gains account for $112,500

d) debit to Treasury Stock for $90,000

Answer:

Option D Debit to Treasury Stock for $90,000

Explanation:

The journal entry of repurchase of treasury stock is as under:

Dr Treasury Stock $90,000

Cr Cash $90,000

As the treasury stock has been purchased for cash, the cash has been decreased and the decrease in treasury stock is credit in nature. Hence the decrease in stock is shown as debit and decrease in cash is shown as credit.

The rate as which the stock is purchased is the price at which treasury stock will be debited = Treasury shares purchased × Fair Value per Share

= 3,750 shares × $24

= $90,000

ludmilkaskok [199]

Sampling error occurs when a sample somehow does not represent the target population.

Answer:

Statement (A) is true

Explanation:

Sample means a small group selected from a large group.The large group from which a sample is selected is called the population.Basically a sample is selected to draw conclusions regarding population because it is not possible to study the entire sample.But if sample sample does not represent the target population then our conclusions will not be accurate.This will give rise to sampling errors.

If occurs when sample is biased.So we need to be very careful while selecting a sample.It must represent the entire population not just a part of population.

Sampling error can be reduced by increasing the size of population,dividing population in groups,select appropriate population.

Sampling error occur when population is not correct as per our requirement,or when sample is selected randomly.It may also occur when sample selected does not respond ,at that time it becomes difficult to draw conclusions regarding population.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

1. $16,350

2. Debit Inventory writeoff (p/l) $1,650

Credit Inventory $1,650

3. This adjustment will reduce the value of the total assets by $1,650. The total expense will also increase by the same amount thus reducing the net income.

Explanation:

According to IAS 2 inventories which is the accounting standard for Inventories under IFRS, Inventory should initially be recognized at the cost (which includes the cost of the item and other associated cost such as freight).

However, it is required that subsequently, inventory would be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. When the cost is higher than the net realizable value, the cost of the inventory will be written down by

Debit Inventory write-off (p/l)

Credit Inventory

Inventory Quantity Cost NRV New Amount

Shirts 35 $60 $70 $60

Mega Driver 15 $360 $250 $250

Mega Driver II 30 $350 $420 $350

Of all the items , only Mega driver has a cost higher than NRV and the adjustment required amounts to

= (360 - 250) * 15

= $1,650

Ending inventory using the lower of cost and net realizable value.

= (35 * 60) + (15 * 250) + (30 * 350)

= $16,350

Adjustment required

Debit Inventory writeoff (p/l) $1,650

Credit Inventory $1,650

This adjustment will reduce the value of the total assets by $1,650. The total expense will also increase by the same amount thus reducing the net income.
