Full Question:
<em>Suppose it is discovered that the first zurvanites were influenced more by indian than by babylonian conceptions of cyclical time. does this discovery support the author's argument?</em>
A: The author does not claim that Zoroaster was the first to proclaim the end of history, just that this claim was one of the “most striking elements” in his teaching (lines 27-29). This discovery would not be inconsistent with the passage.
B: The author suggests that the Zurvanite conception of time as a sentient being was based in Babylonian speculations that time is cyclical, and so unending (lines 29-35). An early Zurvanite denial that history has an end (i.e., a claim that history and time do not end) would strengthen, not weaken the author’s argument.
C: The author very strongly argues that the Zurvanites committed “a deep and grievous heresy” by claiming that the two primal beings were brothers (lines 52-56). If Zoroaster himself made this claim, the Zurvanites would not in fact have “betrayed Zoroaster’s fundamental doctrine.”
D: The author does not argue that Zoroaster had no premonitory inkling of what heresies were to come. This discovery would have no effect on the author’s position.
Answer:
Yes. The author very strongly argues that the Zurvanites committed “a deep and grievous heresy” by claiming that the two primal beings were brothers (lines 52-56). If Zoroaster himself made this claim, the Zurvanites would not in fact have “betrayed Zoroaster’s fundamental doctrine.”

Answer:
Instructions are listed below
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor cost. The information used in setting this rate includes estimates that the company will incur $754,000 of overhead costs and $580,000 of direct labor cost.
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Estimated manufacturing overhead rate= 754000/580000= $1.3 per direct labor dolar
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Answer:
a) $12,500 unfavorable
b) 0
Explanation:
variable factory overhead controllable variance = actual variable overhead expense - (standard variable overhead per unit x standard number of units)
actual variable overhead expense = $725,000
standard variable overhead per unit = $712,500 / 60,000 = $11.875
standard number of units = 60,000
variable factory overhead controllable variance = $725,000 - $712,500 = $12,500 unfavorable
Controllable factory overhead is not related to any changes in the actual volume or quantity produced.
Fixed factory overhead volume variance = actual fixed overhead - standard fixed overhead = $262,500 - $262,500 = 0
Fixed overhead was exactly the same as the standard or budgeted overhead.
$1,032.19. Assume that the next coupon payment is exactly six months away. a) What is the yield-to- maturity of the bond? b) What is the effective annual rate
