Answer:
All of the following statements about the geography of meat production in the United States and Canada are true EXCEPT: Consumer demand for organic foods has significantly decreased the amount of meat produced by most agribusiness firms.
Explanation:
Organic foods are grown without the use of synthetic additives like fertilizer and pesticides for plants, antibiotics and growth hormones for animals.
Consumer demand for organic products due to its health benefits has not significantly decreased the amount of meat produced by most agribusiness firms. Instead, it has created another lucrative business niche for meat production corporations.
Organic foods are now being produced to meet the demand for it along side with those that are not organic.
There is however a higher charge associated with organic foods.
Answer:
option (D) $138,000
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Purchasing cost of the machine = $126,000
Additional costs for this machine :
Shipping = $3,000
Installation = $4,000
Testing = $5,000
Now,
The cost of machine that should be reported
= Purchasing cost + Additional costs incurred
= $126,000 + $3,000 + $4,000 + $5,000
= $138,000
Hence,
The correct answer is option (D) $138,000
<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>
The given data is as follows:
Error rate = 4%, per hour payment of inspector = $8, inspection of units = at the rate of 49 per hour, cost = $9 per unit
The problem can be solved as considering an opportunity to have an improvement of 4% in the quality.
In case inspector is not hired then it will cost .04 multiply 9= $.3.6 per unit and in case the inspector is hired it will cost $ 0.163 approx.(8 divided by 49).
Therefore, on comparison, it is recommended to hire the inspector.
Answer: MULTINATIONAL
Explanation: MULTINATIONAL ENTERPRISE is any Enterprise that has its presence and does business in two or more countries. The presence can be in the form of Production facilities, Marketing facilities,joint ventures or even Franchise etc
Companies like Green Cleaners Inc., a U.S. company which has expanded to Spain and Poland are multinationals. Multinational organizations or enterprises have huge capital base through which they are able to acquire properties abroad.
The company's external equity comes from those funds raised from public issuance of shares or rights. The cost of external equity is the minimum rate of return which the shareholders supply new funds <span>by </span>purchasing<span> new shares to prevent the decline of the market value of the shares. To compute the cost of external equity, we should use this formula:</span>
Ke<span> = (DIV 1 / Po) + g</span>
Ke<span> = cost of external equity</span>
DIV 1 = dividend to be paid next year
Po = market price of share
g = growth rate
In the problem, the estimated dividend to be paid next year is $1.50. The market price is $18.50 and the growth rate is 4%.
<span>Substituting the given to the formulas, we need to divide $1.50 by $18.50 giving us the result of 8.11% plus the growth rate; this would yield to the result of 12.11% cost of external equity.</span>
