Answer:
According to Maslow, when Clorox wipes highlight the germ-harboring aspect of conventional sponges, it is addressing
C. Physiological Need for Health
Explanation:
According to Maslow's Need of hierarchy, humans move from
Physiological Needs: Basic biological needs, like air, water, food, shelter, clothing, primary health needs etc
Safety Needs: Need of personal security, property, resources etc
Need of Belonging: Having friends, family, people to talk to with etc
Esteem Needs: Need for self respect, freedom, status, recognition etc.
Self-actualization Need: Reaching the heights where one can go and attaining the most highest form of something which one desires.
After reading all the above needs, it is very much clear in understanding that Clorox wipes highlighting the germ-harboring aspect of conventional sponges, is addressing the Physiological Need for Health.
The marketing of Clorox wipes targeting germs relates to Maslow's physiological need for health, as it addresses basic survival concerns such as maintaining a healthy environment.
According to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, when Clorox wipes underscore the germ-harboring aspect of conventional sponges, it addresses the physiological need for health. Maslow's Hierarchy begins with the most basic level of needs, which are physiological needs. These needs refer to the essentials for survival, such as food, water, and overall health. If these foundational needs are not met, they become the primary focus of motivation. In marketing, highlighting the health benefits of a product, such as the germ-killing capabilities of Clorox wipes, directly appeals to this fundamental need for health and well-being.
Town Crier has 10 million shares of common stock outstanding. 2 million shares of preferred stock outstanding, and 10 thousand bonds. If the common shares are selling for $28 per share the preferred shares are selling for $15.50 per share, and the bonds are selling for 97 percent of par, what would be the weight used for debt in the computation of Town Crier's WACC? Multiple Choice O
A. 30 percent
B. 312 percent
C. 3.20 percent
D. 3.33 percent
The weight used for debt in Town Crier's WACC is calculated by dividing the total debt by the sum of the market values of common stock, preferred stock, and debt, resulting in about 3.02%, which corresponds to answer C. 3.20 percent.
Explanation:To calculate the weight used for debt in the computation of Town Crier's Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC), we need to first understand the market values of equity (both common and preferred) and debt. The company has 10 million common shares outstanding at $28 each, 2 million preferred shares at $15.50 each, and 10 thousand bonds selling for 97% of par. Assuming each bond has a par value of $1,000 (which is typical but not stated in the question), the total market value of each component is as follows:
Common Stock: 10,000,000 shares * $28 per share = $280,000,000Preferred Stock: 2,000,000 shares * $15.50 per share = $31,000,000Bonds: 10,000 bonds * $1,000 par value * 97% = $9,700,000To find the weight of debt in the WACC calculation, we divide the total debt by the sum of the market values of debt and equity:
Weight of Debt = Debt / (Common Stock + Preferred Stock + Debt) = $9,700,000 / ($280,000,000 + $31,000,000 + $9,700,000) = $9,700,000 / $320,700,000 ≈ 0.03023, or 3.02%
So, the correct answer is C. 3.20 percent.
The Operations Manager for Shadyside Savings & Loan orders cash from her home office for her very popular "BIG BUCKS" automated teller machine, which only dispenses $100 bills. She estimates that this machine dispenses an average of 12,500 bills per month, and that carrying a bill in inventory costs 10 percent of its value annually. She knows that each order for these bills costs $300 for clerical and armored car delivery costs, and that order lead time is six days. Assuming a 30-day month, what is the economic order quantity?
Answer:
3,000 $100 bills equivalent to $300,000
Explanation:
The economic order quantity (EOQ) is the optimum quantity of a good to be purchased or required at a time in order to minimize ordering and carrying costs in inventory.
EOQ = the square root of [(2 times the annual demand in units times the incremental cost to process an order) divided by (the incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory)]
annual demand in units = 12,500 x 12 = 150,000incremental costs to process an order = $300incremental annual cost to carry one unit in inventory = 10% x 100 = $10EOQ = √[(2 x 150,000 x $300) / $10] = √($90,000,000 / $10) = √9,000,000 = 3,000 bills
The economic order quantity for ordering 'BIG BUCKS' bills is approximately 2,739 bills.
Explanation:To determine the economic order quantity, we need to use the formula: EOQ = √((2DS)/H), where D represents the annual demand, S represents the cost per order, and H represents the carrying cost per unit. Based on the given information, the annual demand is 12,500 bills, the cost per order is $300, and the carrying cost is 10% of the bill's value per year.
Using the formula, we can calculate the economic order quantity as follows:
EOQ = √((2 * 12,500 * 300)/(0.10 * 100)) = √7,500,000 = 2,738.61
Therefore, the economic order quantity for ordering 'BIG BUCKS' bills is approximately 2,739 bills.
Quantities $r$ and $s$ vary inversely. When $r$ is $1200,$ $s$ is $0.35.$ What is the value of $s$ when $r$ is $2400$?
Answer:
0.175
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
r and s vary inversely
Mathematically, we can represent the relation as
rs ∝ 1
or
rs = k ............(i)
here,
k is the proportionality constant
when,
r = 1200 ; s = 0.35
thus,
1200 × 0.35 = k
or
k = 420 ...............(ii)
similarly for case when r = 2400
rs = k [ From (i) ]
2400s = 420 [ value of k from (ii) ]
or
s = 0.175
An investment adviser representative (IAR) is engaged in options trading. The IAR decides that a fair charge for his services would be 7% per month of the assets under management. In order to do so, the IAR will disclose all fees and charges in both the advisory contract, signed by clients, and Form ADV. The IAR thinks that by the dual disclosure, he is acting appropriately. Is the IAR acting appropriately
Answer:
No, because the commission is excessive.
Explanation:
Financial advisers typically charge 0.5% to 1% of total portfolio per year. In this case this financial adviser would be charging 84% per year, and that is extremely excessive.
Commissions that exceed 1% per year are considered high, although if they are slightly above that range they are still considered legal.
Final answer:
The IAR's decision to charge a 7% monthly fee, even with full disclosure, is not in line with industry standards of around 1% annually and may not be appropriate. This fee is substantially higher than average mutual fund and retirement account management fees. Additionally, there is no evidence that such high fees correlate with superior performance in investments.
Explanation:
Whether the Investment Adviser Representative (IAR) is acting appropriately in charging a 7% monthly fee for options trading services, despite disclosing all fees and charges in the advisory contract and Form ADV, is questionable. The industry norm, as described in LibreTexts and observed in mutual funds like those from Vanguard, typically involves management fees that are quite lower than the proposed 7%. Typically, investment advisors charge fees around 1% of the asset value, while mutual fund fees tend to be one-tenth of 1%. Additionally, many retirement funds charge a nominal administrative fee each year, such as 0.25%, to manage assets. The proposed fee is not only significantly higher than the average mutual fund fee, but it may also not be viewed favourably by clients or regulatory bodies considering the fees' impact on investment performance. Historical data indicates that, on average, financial advisors do not consistently beat the market, raising questions on the justification for such high fees. Furthermore, the underperformance of investments like hedge funds, coupled with their high fees, has earned criticism for transferring wealth from investors to fund managers.
Auditors found that the entity has not capitalized a material amount of leases in the financial statements. When considering the materiality of this departure from GAAP, the auditors would choose between which reporting options?
a. Unmodified opinion or disclaimer of opinion.
b. Unmodified opinion or qualified opinion.
c. Unmodified opinion with an emphasis-of-matter paragraph or an adverse opinion.
d. Qualified opinion or adverse opinion.
Answer:
d. Qualified opinion or adverse opinion.
Explanation:
A qualified opinion is used in an auditor's report that accompanies this entity audited financial statements. It is an auditor's opinion that suggests this entity has not capitalized a material amount of leases in the financial statements and there is a materiality of departure from the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) .
The adverse opinion is when an entity needs to reiterate and complete another audit of its financial statements.

Walden Company collects the annual fee for 100 magazine renewals. The annual price is $104 per subscription and covers 52 weekly magazines. The subscription period is from July 1 till June 30 of the following year. During the current calendar year for each subscription, Walden should recognize
Answer:
$5,200
Explanation:
Annual price for each subscription is $104 covering the period from July 1 to June 30 (that is 52 weeks).
Half of this period fall in the current calendar year. i.e. July 1 to December 31 = 26 weeks.
Therefore, the amount to be recognized in the current calendar year is half the total subscription fee.
Total subscription fee = $104 * 100 renewals = $10,400.
There, half of that which will be recognized in the current calendar year
= 50% of $10,400
= $5,200.
Suppose that in the coming year, you expect Exxon-Mobil stick to have a volatility of 42% and a beta of 0.9, and Merck's stock to have a volatility of 24% and a beta of 1.1. The risk free interest rate is 4% and the market's expected return is 12%.
Answer:
Which stock has the highest total risk?
Exon Mobil has a higher risk
Explanation:
Exon Mobil has a higher risk because it has a volatility of 42% which is higher than the 24% volatility of Merck's stock. The stock with a higher volatility is more riskier as it's returns are less stable and deviate from the mean more. Although Exxon has a lower Beta then Merck we cant call it less riskier because Beta only explains how the price of the stock move in relation to the market but does not explain all the risks of the stock, where as volatility takes into account all the risks of a stock.
Kelvin is an agent for Lookout Mountain Accountants, Inc. On Lookout's behalf and at its request, Kelvin pays Nerdlinger for custom software designed for the management of Lookout's services. Kelvin's right to obtain the amount of those payments from Lookout arises under the principal's duty of.
Answer:
D) reimbursement.
Explanation:
The principal's duty to reimburse states that the principal must reimburse the agent all the reasonable expenses that he/she incurred in while performing his/her duties. The costs that should be reimbursed include: travel costs, meals, lodging, incidental expenses, etc.
The amount that Kelvin paid Nerdlinger is considered a reasonable expense since it will benefit Lookout Mountain Accountants, therefore the principal must reimburse the payment.
"The correct answer is: The principal's duty of indemnification.
In the given scenario, Kelvin is acting as an agent for Lookout Mountain Accountants, Inc. (the principal). When an agent makes payments on behalf of the principal and at the principal's request, the principal has a duty to indemnify the agent for those payments.
This means that the principal is obligated to reimburse the agent for any expenses or liabilities incurred while carrying out the principal's instructions.
The duty of indemnification is a fundamental aspect of the agency relationship. It ensures that agents are not left out of pocket for legitimate expenses they incur in the course of their agency duties. In this case, since Kelvin paid Nerdlinger for custom software at Lookout's request, Kelvin has the right to be indemnified by Lookout for the amount paid.
Smith Company's inventory cost is $100. The expected sales price is $110, estimated selling costs are $6. The normal gross profit ratio is 20% of selling price. The replacement cost of the inventory is $106. Smith Company uses the LIFO inventory method so must use the lower of cost or market approach and this inventory item should be valued at
A. $102
B. $106
C. $104
D. $110
Using the Lower of Cost or Market (LCM) approach, Smith Company's inventory should be valued at $104, as this is the smaller value between the replacement cost and the market price.
Option C is correct
Explanation:The lower of cost or market (LCM) approach indicates that inventory should be valued at the lesser of the cost to replace the inventory or the market value. In the case of Smith Company, the cost of the inventory is $100, and the replacement cost is $106.
However, the market price (the expected sales price less the selling costs: $110 - $6 = $104) is lower than the replacement cost. Therefore, following the LCM approach, the inventory should be valued at $104.

Which of the following statements is TRUE?A)Only Canada can benefit from trade because the United States has an absolute advantage inthe production of both soybeans and alfalfa. B)Trade will benefit both countries because the United States has a comparative advantage in the production of soybeans and Canada has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa. C)Trade will benefit both countries because the United States has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa and Canada has a comparative advantage in the production of soybeans. D)Trade will benefit neither country because the United States has an absolute advantage in the production of both soybeans and alfalfa, but Canada has a comparative advantage in theproduction of both soybeans and alfalfa
Option C statement is true, Trade will benefit both countries because the United States has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa and Canada has a comparative advantage in the production of soybeans.
Explanation:
Global trade in goods has increased rapidly since the Second World War and particularly in the last three decades. Food was no exception, as well as the global food network has become extremely complex and integrated, with over 1.1 trillion dollars in agricultural trading today.
In a peaceful world, a country can make reason to cultivate the few products that it is suitable to manufacture, export what it really is capable of producing to a competitive advantage and import what it should not grow. It is a "comparative advantage" and a key economic theory supporter.
Final answer:
The true statement about trade benefits between the US and Canada is that both countries benefit when each specializes in the production of goods where they have a comparative advantage, with the US in soybeans and Canada in alfalfa.
Explanation:
The correct answer to which statement is true regarding the effects of trade between the United States and Canada in relation to the production of soybeans and alfalfa is B) Trade will benefit both countries because the United States has a comparative advantage in the production of soybeans and Canada has a comparative advantage in the production of alfalfa. This is based on the concept of comparative advantage, which means that even if one country has an absolute advantage in the production of all goods, it can still be beneficial for that country to specialize in goods for which it has the greatest relative efficiency.
Absolute advantage refers to the ability of a country to produce more of a good with fewer resources than another country. However, comparative advantage considers what is given up to produce that good. Even if a country like the United States has an absolute advantage in producing both soybeans and alfalfa, it may benefit from specializing in soybeans, which it produces with a relatively greater efficiency compared to alfalfa, and then trade with Canada, which specializes in alfalfa, to maximize overall efficiency and gains from trade.

A small company is setting up a new remote satellite office. Employees in the remote office need to access network resources from the main office of the company. An IT manager is deciding whether to deploy thin or thick clients at the remote office. What is the key technical factor to be considered?
Final answer:
The key technical factor to consider when deciding between thin and thick clients at a remote office is network bandwidth.
Explanation:
The key technical factor to be considered when deciding whether to deploy thin or thick clients at a remote office is the network bandwidth. Thin clients rely heavily on network resources as most of the processing is done on the server, while thick clients have more processing power and can handle tasks locally. If the network bandwidth is limited, thin clients may lead to performance issues as they require constant communication with the main office to access resources. On the other hand, if the network bandwidth is sufficient, thin clients can be a cost-effective solution as they require less hardware and are easier to maintain.
Final answer:
The key technical factor in deciding between thin and thick clients for a new remote satellite office is the quality of the network connection to the main office, considering aspects like reliability, bandwidth, and security. This fits into larger strategic IT decision-making about centralization versus decentralization and requires input from both IT and business managers.
Explanation:
When deciding between deploying thin clients or thick clients in a new remote satellite office, the key technical factor to consider is the quality of the network connection between the remote office and the main office. Thin clients rely heavily on a strong, consistent network connection because they primarily run applications and process data that are stored on servers at the main office. Thick clients, on the other hand, have more local processing power and storage, which allows them to function more autonomously from the central servers.
The IT manager must consider factors such as network reliability, bandwidth, and latency, as these will impact the performance of the thin clients. Another consideration is data security, as a robust network connection to the main office is also a pathway through which security threats could travel. Therefore, the choice between thin and thick clients should be based on a balance of network infrastructure capabilities and security measures.
This decision should also align with the organization's strategic IT goals, whether that be centralization for cost efficiency and synergy, or decentralization for innovation and rapid response to market changes. Insightful collaboration between IT and business managers can lead to better decision-making in this regard.
An investment of $100,000 is worth $105,000 after 3 months. If the investment keeps growing at the current rate, at the end of one year, the annualized rate of return will be:A. 5.00%B. 20.00%C. 21.55%D. 25.00%
Answer:
C 21.55%
Explanation:
The investment grows by 5% in three months and assuming that the investment earns 5% for every three months (every quarter). Therefore every quarter investment earns 5%. The annualized return is calculated as follows:
Annualized return = (1 + periodic return) * (1 + periodic return).... -1 * 100
Annualized return =( 1.05 * 1.05 * 1.05 * 1.05) - 1 * 100
Annualized return = 21.55%

Methods of deducting costs over time include depreciation for tangible personal and real property, amortization for intangible assets, and depletion for the cost of natural resources. Each method aligns with the concept of matching expenses with revenue in the period they occur, following the matching principle in accounting.
Explanation:The method of deducting the cost of tangible personal and real property over its useful life is called Depreciation. This allows for the cost of an asset to be spread out over its lifespan. For example, if a business buys a vehicle for $10,000 and expects it to last for 10 years, it could deduct $1,000 from its taxable income each year.
The method of deducting the cost of intangible assets over a specific time is called Amortization. Intangible assets include things like patents, copyrights, and software development costs that provide value over a period of time. An example would be if a company spent $500,000 on a software development project intended to be in use for 5 years, then the company would deduct $100,000 each year.
For natural resources, the method of deducting the cost is through Depletion. This gives companies a way to account for reducing quantities of raw materials like oil, minerals, and timber. Suppose a company owns a timberland valued it at $3M with an estimated total of 1M trees - as they remove trees, they can deduct the cost per tree from their revenues.

_________ values in economics are those that have been adjusted to remove the impact of inflation so that meaningful comparisons can be made..
Answer:
Real values are those that have been adjusted to remove impact of inflation.
Explanation:
Real values are the value of goods and services produced / consumed in a period which are adjusted for inflation.
Real values are very useful figures as these are required to calculate growth in Gross Domestic Product (GDP), personal incomes etc.
Real value is obtained by removing removing impact of increase in price level over the period by adjusting with deflator as defined in below example.
Example
Value of goods and services produced in an economy 2019 USD 100 billion
Value of goods and services produced in an economy 2018 USD 80 billion
Inflation in 2019: 5%
So the real growth in GDP: {(100 - 80) / 80} - 5% = 20%.
