Dr Depletion charge (Ore deposits) 23,268
Cr Accumulated depreciation 23,268
Explanation:
Preparation of the year-end entries to record both the ore deposit depletion and the mining machinery depreciation of Montana Mining Co
Depletion of natural resources can be defined as the way in which the cost of natural resources is apportioned upto the period when it will be utilized which is why they are shown at cost in balance sheet.
The entry is to record depreciation charged on ore deposit depletion. Therefore To record this entry we have to debit depletion charges, and credit accumulated depreciation
Dr Depletion charge (Ore deposits) 405,528
Cr Accumulated depreciation 405,528
Computation of depletion cost per unit:
The depletion cost per unit can be calculated by dividing the net cost of the ore with the total units of capacity :
Depletion/units = Cost - Salvage/ Total unit of capacity
$3,721,000/1,525,000 tons
=$2.44
Hence, depletion per unit is $2.44.
Computation depletion amount on ore deposit:
The depletion amount on ore deposit can be calculated by multiplying the cost per depletion unit with the number of units utilized:
Depletion =Cost/Unit ×Units Utilized
$2.44×166,200 tones
=$405,528
Hence, depletion expenses on ore deposit amounts to $405,528.
The pass entry to record depreciation charged on mining machine :
Dr Depletion charge (Ore deposits) 23,268
Cr Accumulated depreciation 23,268
Computation of depreciation cost per unit:
The depletion cost per unit can be calculated by dividing the net cost of the ore with the total units of capacity :
Depletion/units = Cost - Salvage/ Total unit of capacity
$213,500/1,525,000 tons
=$0.14
Hence, depreciation per unit is $0.14.
Computation of depreciation amount on ore deposit:
The depletion amount on ore deposit can be calculated by multiplying the cost per depletion unit with the number of units utilized:
Depletion =Cost/Unit ×Units Utilized
$0.14×166,200 tones
=$23,268
Therefore the depreciation expenses on ore deposit amounts to $23,268

Answer:
Moral obligation bond
Explanation:
Moral obligation bond is defined as a revenue bond that is issued by a municipality or by some other government body.
The benefits of moral obligation bonds are tax exemption and a moral pledge that there will be no default on the bond.
Usually a reserve fund is established in case the issuing body is unable to meet its debt obligations.
In this scenario the bond is issued with a covenant that states "if revenue collections are insufficient, the state legislature has the authority, but not the obligation, to make an annual apportionment of funds necessary to meet debt service requirements."
Dividends Per Share Windborn Company has 25,000 shares of cumulative preferred 3% stock, $50 par and 50,000 shares of $15 par common stock. The following amounts were distributed as dividends:
Y1 $75,000

Year 2 $ $
Year 3 $ $
Answer:
Preferred Stock Common Stock
(dividend per share) (dividend per share)
Year 1 $1.50 $0.75
Year 2 $0.60 $0.00
Year 3 $2.40 $1.05
Explanation:
For Year 1:
Total dividend distributed = $75,000
Preferred shareholders' dividend = $50 * 25,000 * 3% = $37,500
Preferred shareholders' dividend per share = $37,500 / 25,000 = $1.50
Common stockholders' dividend = Total dividend distributed - Preferred shareholders' dividend = $75,000 - $37,500 = $37,500
Common stockholders' dividend per share = $37,500 / 50,000 = $0.75
For Year 2:
Total dividend distributed = $15,000
Dividend payable to preferred shareholders = $50 * 25,000 * 3% = $37,500
Dividend paid to preferred shareholders = $15,000
Preferred shareholders' dividend per share = $15,000 / 25,000 = $0.60
Preferred shareholders' dividend carried forward = Dividend payable to preferred shareholders - Total dividend distributed = $37,500 - $15,000 = $22,500
Common stockholders' dividend = $0
Common stockholders' dividend per share = $0
For Year 3:
Total dividend distributed = $112,500
Total dividend paid to preferred shareholders = $37,500 + Preferred shareholders' dividend carried down from Year 2 = $37,500 + $22,500 = $60,000
Preferred shareholders' dividend per share = $60,000 / 25,000 = $2.40
Common stockholders' dividend = Total dividend distributed - Total dividend paid to preferred shareholders = $112,500 - $60,000 = $52,500
Common stockholders' dividend per share = $52,500 / 50,000 = $1.05
Among the 1,000 policyholders of the auto insurance company, 400 are classified as low-risk drivers and 600 are classified as high-risk drivers. In each month, the probability of zero accidents for high-risk drivers is 0.80 and the probability of zero accidents for low-risk drivers is 0.90. Calculate the expected bonus payment from the insurer to the 1000 policy
Answer:
50,400
Explanation:
We are required to
Calculate the expected bonus payment from the insurer to the 1000 policyholders in one year:
X = case of 0 accident
E[X] = 400 x P(X | low risk) + 600 x P (X | high risk)
= (400 x 0.9) + (600 x 0.8)
= 840
Expected bonus = 840 x 5 dollars x 12 months
= 50400
Suppose initially, vertical portion of the supply curve intersects the demand curve on its downward portion. Graphically show the case where an increase in the interest rate paid on reserves does NOT lead to a change in the equilibrium fed funds rate.
Answer:
Kindly Check Explanation section
Explanation:
NB: Since, we are to show graphically and there is need to draw, kindly check the attached file for the graph that shows the case where an increase in the interest rate paid on reserves does NOT lead to a change in the equilibrium fed funds rate.
The concept of RESERVE is very important in accounting. The amount of money that is saved up from the normal profit of a business organization or company or a country which is being used for further efficient Production In the long run is known as RESERVE.
For a country, it is the central bank in such country that pays the interest with regards to reserves that are in excess.
It must be noted that as the rate of supply increases , the rate of at which the value of price is also reduces. Hence, when there is an increase in the interest rate paid on reserves the whole demand does not shoot up.
NB: The initial equilibrium is at E( the point at which D(A) and P(A) meets and an increase causes it to meet at the point D(B) and P(B).
You consider buying a share of stock at a price of $21. The stock is expected to pay a dividend of $2.04 next year, and your advisory service tells you that you can expect to sell the stock in 1 year for $24. The stock's beta is 1.2, rf is 8%, and E[rm] = 16%. What is the stock's abnormal return?A. 1%
B. 2%
C. -1%
D. -2%
E. None of the above
Answer:
E. None of the above
Explanation:
First we need to calculate the holding period return
Holding period return is the rate of return which an assets earns during the period in which it holds the assets.
Holding Period Return = (Selling Price - Initial Price + Dividend ) / Initial Price
Holding Period Return = ($24 - $21 + $2.04 ) / $21 = 0.24 = 24%
Now we need to calculate the expected return on the stock using CAPM formula as follow
Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta ( Market Risk Premium )
Expected return = rf + beta ( E(rm) )
Placing values in the formula
Expected return = 8% + 1.2 ( 16% )
Expected return = 27.2%
Abnormal return is the difference of Holding period return and expected return
Abnormal return = 27.2% - 24% = 3.2%

Protab Selling Price = 100000 units × $720 = $72,000,000
Selling price of option to purchase probook = 100000 units × 20% utilisation * $150 = $3000000
Selling price of option to purchase extended warranty = ($70 -$70)×100000 units * 40% = $0
Total = $75,000,000
Percentage of Protab selling price of Total Selling Price = $72,000,000 /$75,000,000 = 96%
Percentage of Option to purchase Probook of Total Selling Price = $3,000,000 /$75,000,000 = 4%

b) Coverage error is when respondents give untruthful answers.
c) Focus groups are nonrandom but can probe issues more deeply.
d) Surveys posted on popular websites suffer from selection bias.
Answer:
b) Coverage error is when respondents give untruthful answers
Explanation:
Coverage error occurs when the target population isn't the population actually sampled.
Coverage error could be undercoverage or over coverage.
undercoverage is when the sampling population doesn't include all of the target population.
Over coverage is when some of the target population is over represented in the sample population.
I hope my answer helps you
Answer:
b) Coverage error is when respondents give untruthful answers.
Explanation:
Coverage error is a form of bias in experiments, where the selected sample does not match with the population for whom the experiment is actually meant for. This problem could arise as a result of undercoverage or overcoverage of samples.
Undercoverage is a situation wherein the members of the earmarked population are not included in the sample. Overcoverage occurs when samples that are not from the intended population, are included in error or even included more than once.

Trade-Off Theory. Smoke and Mirrors currently has EBIT of $25,000 and is all-equity- financed. EBIT is expected to stay at this level indefinitely. The firm pays corporate taxes equal to 35% of taxable income. The discount rate for the firm’s projects is 10%.(LO3)
a. What is the market value of the firm?
b. Now assume the firm issues $50,000 of debt paying interest of 6% per year, using the proceeds to retire equity. The debt is expected to be permanent. What will happen to the total value of the firm (debt plus equity)?
c. Recompute your answer to (b) under the following assumptions: The debt issue raises the probability of bankruptcy. The firm has a 30% chance of going bankrupt after 3 years. If it does go bankrupt, it will incur bankruptcy costs of $200,000. The discount rate is 10%. Should the firm issue the debt?
Answer:
a. What is the market value of the firm?
$162,500b. Now assume the firm issues $50,000 of debt paying interest of 6% per year, using the proceeds to retire equity. The debt is expected to be permanent. What will happen to the total value of the firm (debt plus equity)?
$200,123c. Recompute your answer to (b) under the following assumptions: The debt issue raises the probability of bankruptcy. The firm has a 30% chance of going bankrupt after 3 years. If it does go bankrupt, it will incur bankruptcy costs of $200,000. The discount rate is 10%. Should the firm issue the debt?
The firm should not issue the debt because the risk of bankruptcy eliminates any possible gains obtained from issuing debt. It actually decreases the value of equity.Explanation:
the firm's current value = [EBIT x (1 - tax rate)] / WACC = [$25,000 x 0.65] / 10% = $162,500
firm's new WACC = ($112,500/$162,500 x 10%) + ($50,000/$162,500 x 6% x 0.65) = 6.92% + 1.2% = 8.12%
the firm's new value = [$25,000 x 0.65] / 8.12% = $200,123
expected cost of bankruptcy = (30% x $200,000) / 1.1³ = $45,079
firm's total value is still $200,123, but the stockholders' equity has been reduced from ($200,123 - $50,000 = $150,123) to $150,123 - $45,079 = $105,044
the gain from issuing debt will be eliminated due to the risk of bankruptcy, before equity had risen from $112,500 to $150,123, but now it decreases to $105,044.
The market value of the firm will be $162500.
Based on the information given, the market value will be calculated thus:
= [EBIT × (1 - Tax rate(] / WACC
= [25000 × (1 - 0.35)] / 10%
= [25000 × 0.65] / 0.10 = $162500
Since the firm's new WACC is 8.12%, then the new value of the firm will be:
= (25000 × 0.65) / 8.12%
= 200,123
Therefore, the total value of the firm is $200,123.
In conclusion, the firm should not issue the debt due to the fact that the risk of bankruptcy will eliminate the gains gotten from the issuance.

For 2018, Winters Manufacturing uses machineminushours as the only overhead costminusallocation base. The direct cost rate is $ 6 per unit. The selling price of the product is $ 21. The estimated manufacturing overhead costs are $ 275 comma 000 and estimated 40 comma 000 machine hours. The actual manufacturing overhead costs are $ 350 comma 000 and actual machine hours are 50 comma 000. What is the profit margin earned if each unit requires two machineminushours?
Answer:
Profit margin per unit= $1.25
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The direct cost rate is $ 6 per unit.
The selling price of the product is $ 21.
Estimated manufacturing overhead= $275,000
Estimated machine-hours= 40,000
Actual machine hours are 50,000
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 275,000/40,000= $6.875 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 6.875*2= $13.75
Finally, the profit margin:
Profit margin per unit= 21 - 6 - 13.75= $1.25

Alfred is saving up money for a down payment on a townhouse. He currently has $5016$ 5016, but knows he can get a loan at a lower interest rate if he can put down $5994$ 5994. If he invests the $5016$ 5016 in an account that earns 4.4%4.4% annually, compounded monthly, how long will it take Alfred to accumulate the $5994$ 5994? Round your answer to two decimal places, if necessary.
Answer:
It will take Alfred to accumulate the $5994 annually 4.1367 and monthly 4.0557
Explanation:
In order to calculate how long will it take Alfred to accumulate the $5994 we would have to use the following formula:
A=P(1+r/n)∧n*t
P=$5,016
A=$5994
r=4.4%
n=1 annually
n=12 monthly
Therefore, t annually would be as follows:
5,994=$5,016(1+(4.4%/100)/1)∧1*t
t=4.1367
Therefore, t monthly would be as follows:
5,994=$5,016(1+(4.4%/100)/12)∧12*t
t=4.0557
It will take Alfred to accumulate the $5994 annually 4.1367 and monthly 4.0557

g)Total common stock equity is $11,958,333.33
h) Accounts Receivable is $7,222,739.73
Explanation:
McDougal Printing, Inc.
Year Ended December 31, 2019
Sales = $ 41,000,000
Gross profit margin = 76%
Operating profit margin = 39%
Net profit margin = 7%
Return on total assets = 13.3%
Return on common equity = 24%
Total asset turnover = 1.9
Average collection period = 64.3 days
Calculation of the dollar values of various income statement and balance sheet accounts
a) Gross Profit = Sales × Gross Profit margin
= $41,000,000 × 76%
= $31,160,000
b) Cost of goods sold = Sales - Gross profit
= $41,000,000 - $31,160,000
= $9,840,000
c) Operating profits = Sales × Operating profit margin
= $41,000,000 × 39% = $15,990,000
d) Operating Expenses = Gross profit - Operating profit
= $31,160,000 - $15,990,000
= $15,170,000
e) Earnings available to common stockholders = Sales × Net profit margin
= $41,000,000 × 7%
= $2,870,000
f) Total assets = Sales ÷ Total asset turnover ratio
= $41,000,000 ÷ 1.9
= $21,581,947.37
g)Total common stock equity = Earnings available to common stockholders ÷ Return on common equity %
= $2,870,000 ÷ 24%
= $11,958,333.33
h) Accounts Receivable = (Sales ÷ 365 days) × Average collection period
= ($41,000,000 ÷ 365 days) × 64.3 days
= $7,222,739.73

"In the Modigliani Miller perfect world with no taxes, if we assume that the effect of adding debt to firm's capital structure is exactly balanced by an increase in the cost of equity as more debt is added, what is the effect of increased debt usage on the weighted average cost of capital (WACC)
Answer: WACC remains constant as leverage increases.
Explanation:
Here is the complete question:
In the Modigliani Miller perfect world with no taxes, if we assume that the effect of adding debt to firm's capital structure is exactly balanced by an increase in the cost of equity as more debt is added, what is the effect of increased debt usage on the weighted average cost of capital (WACC)?
a. WACC first increases, then decreases as leverage increases.
b. WACC remains constant as leverage increases.
c. WACC increases continuously as leverage increases.
d. WACC decreases continually as leverage increases.
In the Modigliani Miller perfect world with no taxes, the capital structure is not relevant as the way a company finances it operations does not really matter.
For the capital markets, they will be perfectly competitive and there will be no taxes, bankruptcy costs or transactions cost and investors all have the same expectations. The weighted average cost if capital will be thesame even though leverage increases.
Investment Management Inc. (IMI) uses the capital market line to make asset allocation recommendations. IMI derives the
following forecasts:
• Expected return on the market portfolio: 12%.
• Standard deviation on the market portfolio: 20%.
• Risk-free rate: 5%.
Samuel Johnson seeks 'Ml's advice for a portfolio asset allocation. Johnson informs IMI that he wants the standard deviation of the portfolio to equal half of the standard deviation for the market portfolio. Using the capital market line, what expected return can IMI provide subject to Johnson's risk constraint?
Answer:
The expected return that IMI can provide subject to Johnson's risk constraint is 8.5%
Explanation:
Capital Market Line (CML)
Expected return on the market portfolio, E([tex]r_m[/tex]) = 12 %
Standard deviation on the market portfolio, σ[tex]_p[/tex] = 20%
Risk-free rate, [tex]r_f[/tex] = 5%
E([tex]r_c[/tex]) = [tex]r_f[/tex] + [ E([tex]r_p[/tex]) - [tex]r_f[/tex] ] × ( σ[tex]_c[/tex] ÷ σ[tex]_p[/tex])
= 0.05 + [ 0.12 - 0.05] × (0.10 ÷ 0.20)
= 8.5%
Consider the following cost function. a. Find the average cost and marginal cost functions. b. Determine the average and marginal cost when xequalsa. c. Interpret the values obtained in part (b)
Answer:
a) Average Cost function = 0.1 + (1000/x)
Marginal Cost function = 0.1
b) At x = a = 2000
Average Cost = 0.6
Marginal Cost = 0.1
c) The average cost calculate at x = 2000 in (b) represents the average cost of producing the first 2000 units of product and the marginal cost calculated at x = 2000 in (b) represents the cost of producing the 2001th unit of product.
Explanation:
The complete question
Consider the following cost functions.
a. Find the average cost and marginal cost functions.
b. Determine the average and marginal cost when x=a.
c. Interpret the values obtained in part (b).
C(x)=1000+0.1x, 0≤x≤5000, a=2000
Solution
a) The average cost is given as the total cost divided by the quantity produced.
A(x) = C(x) ÷ x
C(x) = 1000 + 0.1x
A(x) = (1000 + 0.1x) ÷ x = (1000/x) + 0.1
A(x) = 0.1 + (1000/x)
The marginal cost is given as the first derivative of the cost function with respect to the quantity of products produced.
M(x) = (dC/dx)
C(x) = 1000 + 0.1x
M(x) = (d/dx) (1000 + 0.1x) = 0.1
b) To calculate these values at x = a = 2000
Average cost at x = 2000
A(x) = 0.1 + (1000/x) = 0.1 + (1000/2000) = 0.1 + 0.5 = 0.6
Marginal Cost at x = 2000
M(x) = 0.1
c) The average cost is the cost per unit of producing a particular quantity of product.
The marginal cost is the cost of producing an extra unit of product.
Hence, the average cost calculate at x = 2000 in (b) represents the average cost of producing the first 2000 units of product and the marginal cost calculated at x = 2000 in (b) represents the cost of producing the 2001th unit of product.

New Keynesian theorists argue that a. price and wage adjustments in response to policy changes often overcompensate and cause further price disruptions. b. unions and big business have considerable power and often choose not to change wages and prices so as to deliberately offset policy changes enacted by the government. c. the Fed and the Congress rarely do what they say they will do, so one should never listen to what they say. d. new classical rational expectations theories about how expectations are formed are completely wrong. e. prices and wages may not be free to adjust in response to policy changes.\
Answer:
The correct answer is (D)
Explanation:
New classical "rational expectations" theories about how expectations are formed, are completely wrong. That is, prices and wages may not be free to adjust in response to policy changes.
This is the basis of New Keynesian economics, which emerged from the Classical Keynesian economics.
New Keynesian theorists argue that wages and prices are sticky (hardly adjust) in the face of short term fluctuations in the economy. This means or explains that short term federal monetary policies do not have such a great influence on wage level and price level in the macroeconomy.

Answer:
5) 350 miles
Explanation:
5)
40% + 35 miles = 50%
=> 50% - 40% = 35 miles = 10%
=> 100% = 35 * (100% / 10%) = 35 * 10 = 350 miles
Indigo Company issues 11,300 shares of restricted stock to its CFO, Mary Tokar, on January 1, 2020. The stock has a fair value of $565,000 on this date. The service period related to this restricted stock is 5 years. Vesting occurs if Tokar stays with the company until December 31, 2024. The par value of the stock is $10. At December 31, 2020, the fair value of the stock is $396,000.
Required:
a. Prepare the journal entries to record the restricted stock on January 1, 2014 (the date of grant), and December 31, 2015
b. On July 25, 2018, Tokar leaves the company. Prepare the journal entry to account for this forfeiture.
Answer:
a. Prepare the journal entries to record the restricted stock on January 1, 2014 (the date of grant), and December 31, 2015

b. On July 25, 2018, Tokar leaves the company. Prepare the journal entry to account for this forfeiture.
July 25, stock options are forfeited
Dr Unearned compensation 452,000
Cr Stock based compensation expense 452,000
Explanation:
total stock compensation 11,300
vesting period 5 years = 11,300 / 5 = 2,260 stocks
stock based compensation is recorded using the market price on the date of the grant (January 1, 2014) which = $565,000 / 11,300 = $50 per stock
nothing really happens to the company when the stock options are granted, because unearned compensation is a contra equity account that reduces any increase in equity resulting from the stock options.

A supermarket uses a periodic review system to manage inventory of gallons of drinking water. Average demand is 152 gallons of water per day with standard deviation of 33 gallons per day. It costs $57 to order water from the supplier, and orders are delivered after 4 days. The holding cost for a gallon of water is $0.11 per year. The supermarket is open 360 days per year. If the supermarket aims for a 94.5% service level for gallons of drinking water (z = 1.6), what value should be used for T, the target inventory position at the time of ordering?
The target inventory position is T= ______ gallons.
Answer:
The target inventory position is T= 713.6 gallons.
Explanation:
Given:
Average demand =per day = D = 152 Gallons
Standard deviation of demand = σ = 33 Gallons per day
Lead time for delivery = L = 4 days
Z value for 94.5% service level = 1.6
The target inventory position = (Average demand x Lead time) + Safety stock
= (D × L) + (Z× σ × [tex]\sqrt{L}[/tex])
= (152 × 4) + (1.6 × 33 × [tex]\sqrt{4}[/tex])
= (152 × 4) + (1.6 × 33 × 2)
= 608 + 105.6
= 713.6
The value of the target inventory position will be 713.6 gallons.
The following can be illustrated from the information given:
Average demand per day, D = 152Standard deviation of demand, σ = 33Lead time for delivery, L = 4Z value for 94.5% service level = 1.6Therefore, the target inventory position will be:
= (Average demand x Lead time) + Safety stock
= (D × L) + (Z× σ × ✓L )
= (152 × 4) + (1.6 × 33 × ✓4 )
= (152 × 4) + (1.6 × 33 × 2)
= 608 + 105.6
= 713.6
Therefore, the target inventory position will be 713.6 gallons.

Heidee Corp. and Leaudy Corp. have identical assets, sales, interest rates paid on their debt, tax rates, and EBIT. However, Heidee uses more debt than Leaudy. Which of the following statements is CORRECT?
A) Heidee would have the higher net income as shown on the income statement.
B) Without more information, we cannot tell if Heidee or Leaudy would have a higher or lower net income.
C) Heidee would have the lower equity multiplier for use in the Du Pont equation.
D) Heidee would have to pay more in income taxes.
E) Heidee would have the lower net income as shown on the income statement.
Answer:
E) Heidee would have the lower net income as shown on the income statement.
Explanation:
Heidee and Leaudy have the same Earning Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT).
They both also have the same interest rate paid on debt.
So if Heidee uses more of their debt than Leaudy it means they will incur more interest payment on debt.
This will result in less income for the company.
On the other hand Leaudy uses less debt so their interest expense is low and income is higher.
Heidee would have the lower net income as shown on the income statement.

What is the company’s financial position? Please refer to the income statement and balance sheet for the Exceptional Service Grading Company available here. Using the learning resources provided in the Reading Assignment, perform a financial ratio analysis of the company using the following ratios: • Gross profit margin • Current ratio • Debt ratio
Answer:
Gross profit margin requires revenue and gross profit of the company.
Current ratio = 1.386 x
Debt ratio = 0.123 x
Explanation:
Gross profit margin requires revenue and gross profit of the company which is provided in the question but it can be calculated using this formula ; Total revenue / gross profit . where Gross profit = Revenue - cost of goods sold
Current ratio is calculated using the formula ; current assets/ current liabilities lets assume the left column is for the most recent year then current ratio = 4612200/3325950 = 1.386x
Debt ratio is calculated using the formula ; total debts/total assets lets assume once more that the left column is the most recent year. note; total debts = long term + current notes payable = 454800 + 277550
therefore debt ratio = 732350 / 5957800 = 0.123x

Composing powerful paragraphs is essential when striving for dear communication. Familiarize yourself with basic paragraph elements, various paragraph patterns, and strategies for building coherence. Use the following paragraphs to answer the questions that follow
Paragraph A: Last week, three of our Xdite executives closed a lucrative merger deal with Editionplus. The merger will add more than 500 accounts to our business and will increase our profits by 39 percent in less than a year. Additionally, the executives met with several Editionplus product designers and agreed on three new computer prototypes that we will produce during the next five years. This means we will expand our business to both Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
Paragraph B: Employee reaction has been mixed about our recent plans to expand to Las Vegas and Los Angeles. Many Xcite employees are concerned that the Los Angeles site will not have the same relaxed corporate environment as the current site. However, this is not the case: The relaxed corporate environment at the San Francisco site will be replicated in Los Angeles. The culture we have developed works for the company and our employees, and we don't plan to change it. Human resources executives are already interviewing San Francisco employees so they can capture and replicate the culture with ease.
Answer: 1. A, C
2. "Everyone in senior-level positions has worked his or her way up the corporate ladder and has contributed greatly to the company's success. This team has increased our profits by 6 percent, expanded office space, hired additional IT support, and strengthened our IT infrastructure. These are just a few of this leadership team's many accomplishments."
Explanation:
1. The Direct Approach is also known as a Deductive Approach. This is because when using the Direct Approach, the writer or speaker begins with the main point of the article and then gives supporting evidence and explanations as they go further along.
Paragraph A uses the Direct approach because the writer began by talking about the main point of the sealing of the deal with Editionplus. It then speaks on how it will increase their profits and how they even met with some of their product designers.
Paragraph C also uses the Direct Approach as it speaks to the effectiveness of the leadership first and then gives evidence of why they are effective by stating that they worked hard for it and that they have increased profits, office space and strengthened infrastructure.
2. Supporting sentences are made with the purpose of supporting the main point. They expound on the point and give it meaning by showing evidence of the original point.
Option C would be the correct answer because it gave evidence of the main point in Paragraph C. The Main Point noted how the leadership in San Francisco has been phenomenal for the past decade. Option C then speaks on how they have done so by stating that they had worked their way up and contributed to the success of the company by having increased profits by 6 percent, expanded office space, hired additional IT support, and strengthened IT infrastructure.
