Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Sale value of the merchandise = $74,900

Sales tax liability = $74,900 × (7% ÷ 107%)

= $4,900

Sale value prior to sales tax = $74,900 - $4,900

= $70,000

Sales tax @7% on $70,000 = $4,900

Hope the above calculation will clear the concept since the question clearly mention that

Calhoun Crockery sold merchandise; the total proceeds collected, including a 7% sales tax, amounted to $74,900.

This $74,900 includes 7% tax also it means that the collected proceed is 100% + 7% = 107%

which includes 7% tax liability.

Answer:

in order to support the employees during the transitional phase of change, the hospital could try helping the employees get used to the new changes by maybe adding facilities that they are used to or maybe arrange some colleagues that the employees are familiar with to work with them, so they can get used to the new things with some support by their side.

consequences the hospital May face if they don't support their employees to make them feel more comfortable in their workplace, many of their workers May quit and it would be hard to find new employees and it would be time-consuming to teach the new employees all over again.

another consequence is that if their employees are the ones that make a lot of people want to go to their Hospital community, then losing them may make the people that go to the hospital community to not want to return again and maybe leave a bad review, since the help support care and treatment probably isn't the same.
