Answer:

(a)<u> Backward vertical integration</u> (b) <u>Forward vertical integration</u> (c) <u>Backward vertical integration</u>

Explanation:

(a) An academic medical center is an example of backward vertical integration. The specialist and faculties from the university will provide treatment to the patients. Such medical centers have tertiary service with several intermediaries.

(b) Here, there is no intermediary between patients and general surgery group. The general surgery group treat patients directly. So here there is a forward vertical integration system.

(c) A manufacturer of durable medical equipment will supply to retailers who in turn supply these to hospitals where the patients will receive service from these equipment. So, it is an example of backward vertical integration.

As part of its risk management strategy, Copper Monkey Mining sells futures contracts to hedge changes in fair value of its inve
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

In the March 31 statement of financial position, the company should record the futures contracts as a  loss and liability of $100,000

Explanation:

GAAP specifies that all derivatives instrument and hedging activities recorded  in the balance sheet are assets and liabilities and measured at fair value.

At the starting of the futures contracts, the fair value is $0 since the prices of the future contract was entered at that date.

Given that 200 futures contracts was sold at the commodity exchange foo $$0.83/lb and each contract was for 25,000 lb. Therefore a fair value hedge of 5 million lb. (25,000 lb. × 200 contracts) of copper at $0.83/lb is expected to be delivered.

The price had risen to $0.85/lb at the date of the financial statements, Copper Monkey should record a loss and liability = (5 million lb) × ($0.83 – $0.85) = 5000000 × 0.02 = 100000

Copper Monkey should record a loss and liability of $100,000

Cindy's current year adjusted gross income (AGI) is $300,000 and her current year total tax liability is $60,000. Her immediate
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The answer is $44,000

Explanation:

Solution

Given that

Now

Present/current year AGI = $300000

Present /current year tax liability = $60000

Prior year AGI = $200000

Prior year tax liability = $40000

Thus

As per Tax rule or applying the Tax rule

If Adjusted gross income(AGI) of prior year is below $250000 then the minimum required tax payment in the current year in order to avoid interest penalty is lower of

(1) 90% of present /current year tax (liability) or

(2) 110% of prior year tax liability

So

Because the prior year AGI is $200000 which is lower than $250000, in order to avoid interest penalty, the minimum required payment amount of tax liability in current/present year is lower of

(1) 90% of current year tax liability of $60000

Then

$60000 *90% = $54000

Or

(2)110% of prior year tax liability of $40000

$40000 ×110% = $44000

Hence, minimum required total tax payment amount for the current year is $44,000

Freedom of ownership is part of what and what environment
Rudik [331]

Freedom of ownership is part of the government and the public sector business environment.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Freedom of ownership or a sharing vision offers a number of opportunities in the business environment. It allows the government to control the costs, generate the economies of scale and bargain costs down internally.

The freedom of ownership permits access to complex, specialized skills that can not be sourced locally. So this allows the government sector or the public sector environment to run the business successfully and to run it efficiently.
