Answer:
The last option is wrong, the correct option to that question is: Extreme Programming.
And the correct answer is that option.
Explanation:
To begin with, the name of "Extreme Programming" refers to a specific methodology of development of software that mainly focuses in the improvement of software quality and the responsiveness to changing customers requirements. Moreover, this methodology best fits in the cases where the system project comes with unclear requirements and where there is a short time schedule due to the fact that as a type of agile software development it advocates frequent releases in short time cycles that are primarily focus on introducing checkpoints in where the requirements of the consumers who are unclear can be adopted.

efficiency
Explanation:
Lillian Gilbreth along with her husband Frank highlighted the importance of regulations and consistent effort in the workplace. They focused primarily on "efficiency". As the leader of an organization, the primary aim needs to be focused on enhancing and increasing the efficiency of every employee. Increasing efficiency helps in an increase in profit and motivates the employees to do the work.
A. owner made no investments in the business, and no dividends were paid during the year.
b. owner made no investments in the business, but dividends were $1,250 cash per month.
c. no dividends were paid during the year, but the owner did invest an additional $55,000 cash in exchange for common stock.
d. dividends were $1,250 cash per month, and the owner invested an additional $35,000 cash in exchange for common stock. determine the net income earned or net loss incurred by the business during the year for each of the above separate cases: (decreases in equity should be indicated with a minus sign.)
Answer:
the first part of the question is missing:
Assets Liabilities
Beginning of the year $57,000 $24,436
End of the year $115,000 $46,575
equity = assets - liabilities
beginning = $57,000 - $24,436 = $32,564
ending = $115,000 - $46,575 = $68,425
a b c d
Beginning of the year equity $32,564 $32,564 $32,564 $32,564
Owner investments 0 0 $55,000 $35,000
Dividends ($1,250 x 12) 0 ($15,000) 0 ($15,000)
Net income (loss) $35,861 $50,861 ($19,139) $15,861
End of the year equity $68,425 $68,425 $68,425 $68,425
net income = end equity + dividends - investments - beginning equity
What is wrong with the following specific purpose: "To inform incoming students about the scholarship opportunities at the college and the financial-aid process"
Answer:
there is more than one key idea
Explanation:
The main error with this is that there is more than one key idea. When dealing with a specific purpose, it must be just that "specific". In other words, the message must focus completely on a single key aspect that it is trying to convey. Adding more than one key idea divides the message and the reader's attention which ultimately fails the main purpose of the message.
The price of increases. Which of the following is not part of the likely chain of events that follows from this price change? A. Some consumers of reduce their consumption of . B. The demand for increases. C. Producers of increase their production of . D. The manufacturers of lay off some workers.
Answer:
The manufacturers lay off some workers
Explanation:
Some of the factors that are likely to trigger a price increase are reduction in consumption, increase in demand , increase in production by the producers.
However , it is not likely that the lay off of some workers by the manufacturers causes price increase as lay of workers is a cost management move where workers that are less relevant to operation are relieved of their duties so that cost can be adjusted to accommodate a price reduction.
Therefore , workers lay off is more likely to bring a price reduction rather than price increment.

The Wall Street Journal magazine offers a significant discount to students who purchase a one-year subscription. If the reason for the discount is price discrimination, we can conclude that:
Options:
a. students have a more elastic demand for newspapers than does the general public.
b. students have a less elastic demand for newspapers than does the general public.
c. there is no difference between a student's elasticity of demand for newspapers and any other person's elasticity of demand.
d. students have a perfectly inelastic demand for newspapers.
Answer:
a. students have a more elastic demand for newspapers than does the general public.
Explanation:
We can make this conclusion ased on the information we have about elastic demand.
A more elastic demand means that a consumer (in this case the students), are more sensitive to price and so desire things (the magazine) more as they become less expensive. In other words, their demand can quickly change negatively if there's a degree change in price.
You receive a questionnaire regarding a sales misrepresentation inquiry. The questionnaire regarding the complaint must be completed and returned promptly. When must you return your response?
Answer:
A response must be sent within 5 business days
Explanation:
When a customer complaint is made it is required that the agent must send a response within 5 business days.
In the event that a response is not sent within the 5 days, a non response letter is sent to the agent that requires him to respond within 2 days.
Termination of the agent is initiated when the agent again fails to respond within the extra 2 days.
Complaints are made against agents and the questionnaire is sent to the agents to gain their own view of what occurred.

A cylindrical part of diameter d is loaded by an axial force p. this causes a stress of pya, where a 5 pd2y4. if the load is known with an uncertainty of 610 percent, the diameter is known within 65 percent (tolerances), and the stress that causes failure (strength) is known within 615 percent, determine the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail.
Here is the correct question.
A cylindrical part of diameter d is loaded by an axial force p. this causes a stress of P/A, where A= πd²/4. if the load is known with an uncertainty of ±10 percent, the diameter is known within ±5 percent (tolerances), and the stress that causes failure (strength) is known within ±15 percent, determine the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail.
Answer:
the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail. = 1.434
Explanation:
Looking at the uncertainty; loss of strength must be raised to [tex]\dfrac{1}{0.85}[/tex] due to the stress that causes the failure (strength) is known within ±15% uncertainty.
Looking at the uncertainty; the maximum allowable load must be reduced to [tex]\dfrac{1}{1.1}[/tex] because the load is known with an uncertainty of ±10.
Looking at the uncertainty; the diameter must be raised to [tex]\dfrac{1}{0.95}[/tex] because the diameter is known within an uncertainty of ±5.
The decrease in the maximum allowable stress can be estimated as:
[tex]\sigma' = \dfrac{P'}{A'}[/tex]
where,
[tex]\sigma =[/tex] stress
P = load
A = cross-sectional area of the cylinder
∴
[tex]\sigma' = \dfrac{P'}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(d')^2}[/tex]
replacing P' with [tex]\dfrac{1}{1.1}P[/tex] and d' with [tex]\dfrac{1}{0.95}d[/tex], we have:
[tex]\sigma' = \dfrac{(\dfrac{1}{1.1})\times p }{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(\dfrac{1}{0.95 } d)^2 }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma' =\dfrac{P}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2} (\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{1.1} }{(\dfrac{1}{0.95})^2 }) }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma' =\sigma \times (\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{1.1} }{(\dfrac{1}{0.95})^2 }) }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma' =\sigma \times 0.82045[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{\sigma' }{\sigma } =0.82045[/tex]
Thus, the uncertainty in diameter and the load of the allowable stress needs to decrease to 0.82045
Now, the minimum design factor that will ascertain that the part will not fail can be computed as:
[tex]n_d = \dfrac{loss \ of \ function \ parameter }{maximum \ allowable \ parameter}[/tex]
where;
the design factor = [tex]n_d[/tex]
[tex]n_d =\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{0.85} }{0.82045}[/tex]
the design factor [tex]n_d[/tex] = 1.434.
Thus, the minimum design factor that will guarantee that the part will not fail. = 1.434

B has a $100,000 Accidental Death and Dismemberment policy that pays triple indemnity for common carrier death. If B is killed from an accident on a commercial flight, what will the policy pay B's beneficiary
Answer:
$300,000
Explanation:
B's life insurance policy had a rider clause that established a triple indemnity in case he/she died in an accident using public transportation as long as B wasn't responsible for his/her death or caused the accident that resulted in his/her death. Triple indemnity means that if your policy covered $1, in case of death it will pay you $3.
In the market for wireless earbuds (a normal good), indicate whether the following events would cause an "increase or a decrease in demand" or an "increase or a decrease in the quantity demanded." a. There is an increase in the price of carry cases for wireless earbuds. A. increase in demand. B. decrease in demand. C. increase in quantity demanded. D. decrease in quantity demanded.
Answer:
The correct option is;
D. Decrease in the quantity demanded
b.)
Explanation:
a. There is an increase in the price of carry on cases for wireless earbuds;
Where the increase in the price of carry on cases for wireless earbuds results in an increase in price, there will be a decrease in the quantity demanded
A decrease in the quantity demanded is when there is negative movement along the demand curve due to an increase in price only and the quantity demanded also increases when there is a decrease in price. Which shows that the item is still in demand and the demand can be controlled by the pricing.

Given the list of accounts below identify which of them would appear on a balance sheet
Accounts:
Utilities Expense, Rent Expense, Equipment, Cash, Rental Revenue, Accounts Payable, Retained Earnings, Supplies
Answer:
Equipment, Cash, Accounts Payable, Retained Earnings, Supplies
Explanation:
Only the balance sheet items would be reported on the balance sheet and this includes all the assets, liabilities and equity items. This means income and expenses must not be reported in the balance sheet. Thus excluding expense and income accounts we have Equipment, Cash, Accounts Payable, Retained Earnings and Supplies.
Equipment is a fixed asset, Cash is a current asset item, accounts payable is a current liability, retained earnings is an equity item and Supplies are inventory purchases which means it is current asset.
In January there was a large drop in the number of new houses sold, because interest rates for mortgages were falling and many consumers were waiting to see how low the rates would go. This large sales drop was accompanied by a sharp rise in the average price of new houses sold. Which of the following, if true, best explains the sharp rise in the average price of new houses? (A) Sales of higher-priced houses were unaffected by the sales drop because their purchasers have fewer constraints limiting the total amount they pay. (B) Labor agreements of builders with construction unions are not due to expire until the next January. (C) The prices of new houses have been rising slowly over the past three years because there is an increasing shortage of housing. (D) There was a greater amount of moderate-priced housing available for resale by owners during January than in the preceding three months. (E) Interest rates for home mortgages are expected to rise sharply later in the year if predictions of increased business activity in general prove to be accurate
Answer:
(A) Sales of higher-priced houses were unaffected by the sales drop because their purchasers have fewer constraints limiting the total amount they pay.
Explanation:
The question asks us to state which statement would explain the sharp rise in the average price of new homes sold, and the only option that does that is option A. The average price of new homes sold includes both cheap, middle class and expensive homes, and assuming that the sale of both cheap and middle class homes decreased, the average price of new homes sold would increase because the weight of expensive homes is larger.
E.g. 100 houses are sold:
40 cost around $150,000
50 cost around $300,000
10 cost around $1,000,000
average price = $310,000
sales of cheap and middle class homes decreased, so only 70 were sold:
25 cost around $150,000
35 cost around $300,000
10 cost around $1,000,000
average price = $346,429 (represents an 11.75% increase)
A five-year security was purchased two years ago by an investor who plans to resell it. The security will be sold by the investor in the so-called Group of answer choices surplus market. secondary market. primary market. deficit market.
Answer:
Secondary market.
Explanation:
In this scenario, a five-year security was purchased two years ago by an investor who plans to resell it.
Hence, the security will be sold by the investor in the so-called secondary market.
When one investor sells his or her stock directly to another, the transaction is said to occur in the secondary market.
Secondary market can be defined as a market where various investors sell and buy securities from other investors.
Some examples of secondary market around the world are New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ, London Stock Exchange (LSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE).
On the other hand, the primary market refers to the market where these securities that are being sold are issued or created.

Subsidized and Unsubsidized loans begin to accrue interest as soon as they are disbursed. The interest that accrues on ____ loans while the borrower is enrolled at least half time is paid by the U.S. Department of Education. The borrower is solely responsible for paying ALL of the interest that accrues on ___ loans.
Answer:
subsidized, unsubsidized
Explanation:
A subsidized loan is a loan that is given to undergraduates student that need financial help. It is determined by the cost of attendance minus family contribution. It usually does not accrue any interests at half time or when studies are deferred. Most times part of the interest that accrues from the loan is paid by the Ministry of Education.
An unsubsidized loan on the other hand is one that is given out at undergraduates without resources. This type of loan accrues interests immediately and is to be paid by the students.

What is the gain or loss from purchasing a put option on $100,000 face value Treasury bonds with a strike price of $90,000 (90 points) and a premium of 1.5 points ($1,500) with an expiration date at the end of July if the end-of-July selling price for the bonds is $80,000.
Answer:
Profit of $8,500
Explanation:
Strike Price = $90,000
Premium = $1,500
Break even point = Strike price - Premium
Break even point = $90,000 - $150
Break even point = $88500
Profit = Break even point - Share price
Profit = $88,500 - $80,000
Profit = $8,500
A project has an initial cost of $80,000 and a 3-year life. The company uses straight-line depreciation to a book value of zero over the life of the project. The projected net income from the project is $1,200, $2,300, and $2,800 a year for the next 3 years, respectively. What is the average accounting return? 5.25 percent 5.35 percent 5.45 percent 5.56 percent
Answer:
5.25%
Explanation:
The computation of the average accounting return is shown below:
Average accounting return is
= Average net income ÷ average initial cost
where,
Average net income is
= ($1,200 + $2,300 + $2,800) ÷ 3 years
= $2,100
And, the average initial cost is
= $80,000 ÷ 2
= $40,000
So , the average accounting return is
= $2,100 ÷ $40,000
= 5.25%
Hence, the average accounting return is 5.25%

a. individuals sell bonds, causing the interest rate to rise.
b. individuals buy bonds, causing interest rates to rise.
c. individuals buy bonds, causing interest rates to fall.
d. individuals sell bonds, causing the interest rate to fall.
Answer:
The answer is C
Explanation:
During a period where there is too much of money in circulation, the value of money is worthless, inflation is high.
To reduce the money supply in circulation, the government through its central banks(The Fed in US), sells bonds to investors (which can be commercial banks or corporate individual). The investors buy these bonds and the interest rate falls
