Ward Doering Auto Sales is considering offering a special service contract that will cover the total cost of any service work re
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a. The probability that any one customers service costs will exceed the contract price of $200 is 0.0228

b. Warda expected profit per service contract is $50

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate  the probability that any one customers service costs will exceed the contract price of $200 we would have to calculate first the z value as follows:

z=x-μ/σ

z=$200-$150/$25

z=2

Therefore, probability that any one customers service costs will exceed the contract price of $200 is p(x>$200)=p(z>2)

=1-p(z≤2)

=1-0.9772

=0.0228

The probability that any one customers service costs will exceed the contract price of $200 is 0.0228

b. To calculate Warda expected profit per service contract we would have to make the following calculation:

Warda expected profit per service contract=service charge per contract-expected cost

Warda expected profit per service contract=$200-$150

Warda expected profit per service contract=$50

Warda expected profit per service contract is $50

A dozen eggs cost $0.88 in january 1980 and $2.11 in january 2015.
Lera25 [3.4K]
Initial price = $0.88 (Jan. 1980)
Final price = $2.11 (Jan. 2015)

Change in price = $2.11 - $0.88 = $1.23
Percentage rise in price = 100(1.23/0.88) = 139.8% ≈ 140%
The average yearly rise in price = 139.8/(2015-1980) ≈ 4%

Answer:
Total percent rise in price = 140%
Average yearly rise in price = 4%

Delores Bierlein paid a $200 deposit toward the rental of the Silver Room at Alex's Continental Inn for her wedding reception. L
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

It does not

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to evaluate if a particular transaction carried out between a customer and an inn falls within the dictates of the local consumer protection law in the state.

Firstly, we look at what the local consumer protection law of the state talks about. It explicitly stated that customers should get receipts when suppliers receive deposits from them. Thus, this make the receipt act as the first thing to have if there would be any claim under the consumer protection law for the transaction carried out in the state.

Now, looking at the particular scenario we have, the customer paid for the room, but he was not issued a receipt. This makes the case not treatable within the consumer protection law of the state as the receipt which should have been a prerequisite for further exploration is not available

On January 1, Year 1, the Hoverman Corporation made amendments to its defined benefit pension plan, resulting in $150,000 of pas
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

a)

In IFRS according to IAS 19 all past service cost is recognized in the net income in the period in which amendment (change) is made by entity for defined benefit pension, it does not matter what is the status of the employees who will benefit the change. So in Year 1 $150000 will be expended completely and in subsequent years the amount is $0

Year 1 =$150000

Subsequent years= $0

b) In US GAAP the past service cost is recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive income in the year of amendment. It is amortized over the future working life of the participants.

Year 1 is year of adoption hence $0 is amortized because $150000 is included in Accumulated other comprehensive income.

Subsequent years: (150000/10=15000) $15000 will be amortized for each year for 10 years.
