Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Cultural similarities.

Explanation:

Cultural similarities refer to customs and special terms that for one region or country are widely accepted but not for others. Those actions or phrases could be exactly the same but carry a different or even negative meaning in different places. This is not limited to actions and terms used in day-to-day activities but also under formal circumstances.

Aleks04 [339]

A student who have wrongly been graded is writing an e mail to his professor in order to reconsider his grade on the bsis of the fact thet he has appeared a question in the term exam using the optimal cost method and the professor have assured the students that he will be giving 6 points extra to the student who will ans the question on the basis of the optimal cost method

<u>Explanation:</u>

End-of-term frustrations have produced this e-mail message to Professor Anne Brewer from a student who believes he should have received a B in his accounting class. If this message were recast into three or four clear sentences, the teacher might be more receptive to the student’s argument.

The e-mail message to Prof Anne Brewer can be rewritten as  

Sir

I think you have mistakenly awarded me C in the term examination conducted recently.As far as i can recall you mentioned in the class that the students who will answer  question number three using the optimal cost method will get 6 extra marks .I think you have forgotten to consider the same while grading me.Therefore i request you to reconsider my grade on the above mentioned basis.

Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

People end up tossing 12% of what they buy at the grocery store (Reader's Digest, March, 2009). Assume this is the true population proportion and that you plan to take a sample survey of 540 grocery shoppers to further investigate their behavior.

a- Show the sampling distribution of ( p¯ ), the proportion of groceries thrown out by your sample respondents

sampling distribution of ( p¯ ) is normal with

mean = 0.12   and

standard error = sqrt(p(1-p)/n) = sqrt(0.12*0.88/540) =0.0140

b- what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within ±.03 of the population proportion?

z value for 0.03 difference, z=0.03/0.014 =2.14

The required P= P( -2.14<z<2.14) = P( z <2.14) – P( z <-2.14)

=0.9838 - 0.0162

=0.9676

c- what is the probability that your survey will provide a sample proportion within ±.015 of the population proportion?

z value for 0.015 difference, z=0.015/0.014 =1.07

The required P= P( -1.07<z<1.07) = P( z <1.07) – P( z <-1.07)

=0.8577 - 0.1423

=0.7154

d- What would be the effect of taking a larger sample on the probabilities in parts (b) and (c)? Why?

Taking a larger sample will decrease the standard error. The probabilities in parts (b) and (c) will increase.

Kuyu Company uses the periodic inventory system. Kuyu started the period with $12,000 in inventory. The Company purchased an add
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

$29,500

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning inventory = $12,000

Ending inventory = $6,000

Purchases = $25,000

Purchase return = $1,500

Kuyu’s cost of goods sold during the period:

= Beginning inventory + Net purchases - Ending inventory

= Beginning inventory + (Purchases - Purchase return) - Ending inventory

= $12,000 + ($25,000 - $1,500) - $6,000

= $12,000 + 23,500 - $6,000

= $29,500
