Answer:
Al
Explanation:
In order for a contract to be formed, both parties must reach an agreement (usually through offer and an acceptance of terms). The offer made by Greta was a $50 reward for her missing dogs, Al and Ben agree to the contract by searching for the dogs. Since Al finds and returns one of the Dogs, Greta has an obligation to pay Al. As for Ben, since he failed to meet the terms, he should not be paid. On the other hand, since Charlie never saw the posters, there was no contract formed because he could not possibly agree to terms he was not aware, and Greta has no legal obligation to pay Charlie.
Therefore, Greta has a legal obligation to pay Al.

(A). A Debit to Notes Payable for $960
Explanation:
In case of a promissory note, there are three parties to it, namely,
- Maker i.e Jones here
- Payee, to whom money is to be paid i.e the bank here
- Holder i.e the one who currently holds the promissory note i.e the bank here
Upon issue of promissory note, in the books of the maker (Jones), the entry is,
Name Of The Bank A/C Dr. $960
To Notes Payable A/C 960
(Being a promissory note issued to bank against a payment of $960)
Upon maturity i.e date of payment, the entry would be,
Notes Payable A/C Dr. $960
To Cash/Bank A/C 960
(Being payment of promissory note honored)
Thus, the correct answer would be, (A) a debit to notes payable account for $960.

The Statute of Fraud mandates that certain contracts need to be written down. These contracts include the sale of land, amounts involving more than $500 and contracts that have a timeframe of over a year.
Melinda entered into a contract with terms that have to be fulfilled in more than a year. It is therefore under the Statute of Frauds.
Answer:
$75.40
Explanation:
Mark up is a percentage applied on the cost to get the selling price. In other word, the difference between the marked-up amount and the total cost gives the profit of the entity.
To get the target selling price, we would first determine the total cost, then apply the mark up percentage on the cost and add the result to the cost.
Total cost per unit
= $12 + $4 + $9 + $10 + $5 + $12
= $52
Amount of mark up
= 45% * $52
= $23.40
Target selling price = $52 + $23.40
= $75.40
