Answer: Ethical Egoism

Explanation:

The theory of Ethical Egoism posits that people or entities are well within their rights to act in a manner that benefits their best interest and in so doing are being good in their own right.

The small bank acted in such a manner that it left itself unexposed to risk whilst still making quite a huge profit. The small bank pursued its own interests and so followed the moral theory of Ethical Egoism.

Final answer:

The bank is operating under the moral theory of Moral Egoism. It acts in its own best interest by making large profits off the home loans and offloading the long-term risk.

Explanation:

The bank's actions seem to align with the Moral Egoism theory. This theory suggests that an entity, in this case, the bank, acts in its own best interest. Offering home loans at extremely low initial rates turns in large profit for the bank, which is its main interest. However, offloading the risk of these loans onto another bank marks the bank's primary focus on their well-being rather than the consequences for their customers in the long run. These customers may struggle if the larger bank they deal with lacks flexibility in difficult situations.

#SPJ3

Answer:

The answer is explained below

Explanation:

To begin with, the policies that the goverments decide to implement in their countries tend to influece in a huge way the companies decisions and therefore its actions as well. Therefore that as a company manager of an international business he needs to stay very updated about the government policies over the countries where his company works. Moreover, the manager will understand that if there is free trade in a country then there will be no problems for his company to start selling there and obtaining the maximum profits as possible and if there is protectionism then the company will have to deal with the policies that the government implemented there. And that is why that as an international business manager he should really care about the policies of the country's government and if there is free trade of protectionism.

Answer: Please see the analysis below

Explanation: The following are the financial statement effects

                                  Assets Liabilities Stockholders Equity Income Expense

Write-off of $10,000     -           -                   Nil                           Nil         Nil

Bad debt of $8,000     -           +                   -                                -             +

• Write-off of customer balances of $10,000 would lead to reduction in assets and also reduction in liabilities (since the provision for doubtful accounts reports to liabilities but mapped to the accounts receivable to show the net amount). Here, we have assumed that there is an existing allowance for doubtful accounts that has $10,000 buffer or more. If the write-off was not initially provided for, it would hit expense by debiting bad debt expense and crediting the accounts receivable. Its effects are therefore decrease in asset, decrease in liabilities.

• Bad debt expense of $8,000 affects the expense and the liabilities/assets. Journal entries to record the bad debt expense is Debit Bad debt expense $8,000; Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts $8,000. So, it affects the expense, liabilities and ultimately the assets (allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra to the accounts receivable). Its effects are increase in expense, increase in liabilities, decrease in stockholders equity, decrease in income and decrease in assets

Answer:

Assets =Liabilities +  Stockholders Equity

-8000=                                           - 8000

Explanation:

Allowance for Doubtful  Debts $10,000

Bad debt expense $8,000

Assets =Liabilities +  Stockholders Equity

-8000=                                           - 8000

The write off does not affect the realizable value of accounts receivable. Neither total assets nor net income is affected by the write off a specific account.Instead both assets and net income are affected in the period when bad debts expense is predicted and recorded with an adjusting entry.

Answer:

c. $87,000

Explanation:

The computation of the Arthur's basis in the partnership interest at the end of the year is shown below:

= His share of partnership liabilities + net operating income share + increased share in liabilities - distributed amount

= $60,000 + $12,000 + $20,000 - $5,000

= $87,000

Net operating income share is

= $40,000 × 30%

= $12,000

We simply applied the above formula

Answer:

A)

Cash                                                        $25000 Dr

Accumulated depreciation-Machine  $28000 Dr

               Machine                                       $50000 Cr

               Gain on disposal                          $3000 Cr

B)

Cash                                                        $15000 Dr

Accumulated depreciation-Machine  $28000 Dr

Loss on disposal                                    $7000 Dr

               Machine                                             $50000 Cr

Explanation:

The net book value of the machine is cost - accumulated depreciation.

Thus, the NBV = 50000 - 28000 = $22000

a. The gain on disposal = Cash received - NBV

Gain on disposal = 25000 - 22000 = $3000 gain

b. The gain on disposal = 15000 - 22000 = -$7000 (loss on disposal)
