Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

2022 accounts receivable turnover = 10.4 times

2021 accounts receivable turnover = 9.2 times

Explanation:

Accounts receivable turnover can be described as the number times it takes a company to collect its average accounts receivable within a specified accounting period, usually a year. It is used as a measure of efficiency of a company in collecting account receivables in a timely manner.

Accounts receivable turnover is therefore a ratio of net sales on account to the Average accounts receivable within a specified year. This can be stated as follows:

Accounts receivable turnover = Net sales on account/Average accounts receivable ………. (1)

Using equation (1), accounts receivable turnover for 2022 and 2021 can be calculated as follows:

2022 accounts receivable turnover = $5,605,600/$539,000 = 10.4 times

2021 accounts receivable turnover = $5,308,400/$577,000 = 9.2 times

The results imply that Marigold Company is more efficient in collecting account receivable in 2021 than 2022, because it takes fewer number of times in 2021, 9.2 times, than in 2022, 10.4 times.

Gourd Supermarkets has an extensive training program for all new employees and then has all employees spend a day in customer service and workplace safety training each year.Required:
What contract is it:
a. old social
b. new social?

Answers

Answer:

Old social contract

Explanation:

Old social contract is a type of contract that emphasises the long term commitment between the employer and the employee and stable conditions are defined for both parties.

New social contract on the other hand is one that is short term, and there is little commitment to the contract from both parties.

In the given scenario Gourd Supermarkets provides extensive training program for all new employees. They then spend a day in customer service and workplace safety training each year.

This shows a long term commitment, so it is a form of old social contract.

Answer: a. Old social contract

Explanation: this is an old social contract which is defined as one between an employee and the employer (organisation, business, company or firm) where the employee contributes his/her ability, education, loyalty, and commitment to the organization, and expect wages and benefits, work, advancement, and training in return. Thus, the old social contract emphasizes on long-term commitments with stable conditions between employers and employees. The old social contract is in direct contrast with the new social contract which exists between an employee and an organization wherein the employee takes personal responsibility for employability and the employer gives challenging assignments, lateral career moves, and creative development opportunities.

You are a project manager for a software manufacturing firm. The project you just finished created a new software product that is expected to become a number-one seller. All prerelease of software is handled through the marketing department. A friend of yours, who is a certified software instructor, asks you for a copy of the software prior to the beta release so they can become familiar with it. What is the most appropriate response?

Answers

Answer:

The most appropriate response is that your friend should contact the marketing department and let them know that he wants access to the beta release.

If you are not in charge of the marketing department, then, you should not, by all means, distribute the beta software to one your friends. This would be against the firm's policy, would probably cost you your job, and could even lead to legal liabilities.

The information channels and the firm's protocols should be respected by all employees, and they should not be breached because of nepotism, friends, or outside influences, because that would essentially be corruption.
