A promise to make a gift for a charitable or educational purpose is unenforceable unless and until the institution to which to promise was made incurs obligations by relying on the promise. This exception is usually justified on the basis of either _____ or _____.
Answer:
This exception is usually justified on the basis of either promissory estoppel or public policy.
Explanation:
There are many Judicial devices and one of them is the Estoppel. In common law, there are legal systems which allow a court to use this device to prevent a person (corporate or individual) from making pronouncements or from defecting on their promise.
With regard to public policy, courts in recent cases have reached conclusions that pledges are legally enforceable regardless of whether or not the recipient of the promise has incurred liabilities based on the pledge, and that, the only way to ensure compliance with requirements of the law, a test of public policy is to ensure the promise is made good.
This thought holds true in Ohio where for example, a pledge has the same weight as a promissory note.
According to precedence established in Pennsylvania, any written promise can be enforced regardless of whether or not the pledger intends to be legally bound.

Minstrel Manufacturing uses a job order costing system. During one month, Minstrel purchased $201,000 of raw materials on credit; issued materials to production of $198,000 of which $27,000 were indirect. Minstrel incurred a factory payroll of $153,000, of which $37,000 was indirect labor. Minstrel uses a predetermined overhead application rate of 150% of direct labor cost. If Minstrel incurred total overhead costs of $180,000 during the month, compute the amount of under- or overapplied overhead:
Answer:
Underapplied overhead= $6,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Direct labor= $153,000 - $37,000= $116,000
The predetermined overhead application rate= 150% of direct labor cost.
Actual overhead= $180,000
First, we need to allocate overhead:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Allocated MOH= 116,000*1.5= $174,000
Now, we can calculate the over/under allocation:
Under/over applied overhead= real overhead - allocated overhead
Under/over applied overhead= 180,000 - 174,000
Under/over applied overhead= $6,000 underallocated
Richard Palm is the accounting clerk of Olive Limited. He uses the source documents such as purchase orders, sales invoices and suppliers’ invoices to prepare journal vouchers for general ledger entries. Each day he posts the journal vouchers to the general ledger and the related subsidiary ledgers. At the end of each month, he reconciles the subsidiary accounts to their control accounts in the general ledger to ensure they balance. Discuss the internal control weaknesses and risks associated with the above process.
Answer:
The possible monitoring vulnerability in this case will be as follows:
• No division of service
• Too much dependence on the individual
• credibility and location of information, if any, are questionable
• The measurement errors are high
Throughout such a situation, the programme would be configured to include end-users as well as GL offices with a comprehensive checklist of journal coupons and accounts operation records throughout order to prepare for the possible harm.
The operations manager of a mail order house purchases double (D) and twin (T) beds for resale. Each double bed costs $500 and requires 100 cubic feet of storage space. Each twin bed costs $300 and requires 90 cubic feet of storage space. The manager has $75,000 to invest in beds this week, and her warehouse has 18,000 cubic feet available for storage. Profit for each double bed is $300 and for each twin bed is $150. The manager's goal is to maximize profits.
Required:
What is not a feasible solution?
Answer:
Please see below for answer
Explanation:
It would not be feasible to invest the entire $75,000 amount on making double beds. Although the profit margin for the double beds is twice that of twin beds, it also requires more storage space and the market demand for double beds may not be as high as the twin beds. Hence, making double beds and ignoring twin beds completely might not make as much profit due to not being sold to begin with.

Answer:
d.amortized over a maximum of forty years
Cherokee Inc. is a merchandiser that provided the following information: Amount Number of units sold 13,000 Selling price per unit $ 16 Variable selling expense per unit $ 2 Variable administrative expense per unit $ 3 Total fixed selling expense $ 21,000 Total fixed administrative expense $ 15,000 Beginning merchandise inventory $ 11,000 Ending merchandise inventory $ 25,000 Merchandise purchases $ 88,000 Required: 1. Prepare a traditional income statement. 2. Prepare a contribution format income statement.
Answer:
1. Gross margin is $134,00; and Net profit is $33,000.
2. Contribution margin is $69,000; and Net profit is $33,000.
Explanation:
To prepare the statements, the following calculations are done first:
Sales revenue = Number of units sold * Selling price per unit = 13,000 * $16 = $208,000
Variable selling expenses = Number of units sold * Variable selling expense per unit = 13,000 * $2 = $26,000
Total selling expenses = Variable selling expenses + Total fixed selling expense = $26,000 + $21,000 = $47,000
Variable administrative expense = Number of units sold * Variable administrative expense per unit = 13,000 * $3 = $39,000
Total administrative expense = Variable administrative expense + Total fixed administrative expense = $39,000 + $15,000 = $54,000
Cost of goods sold = Beginning merchandise inventory + Merchandise purchases - Ending merchandise inventory = $11,000 + $88,000 - $25,000 = $74,000
The statements are now prepared as follows:
1. Prepare a traditional income statement.
The purpose of the traditional income statement is to obtain the gross margin and the net profit. These can be obtained as follows:

Answer:
Instructions are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Amount Number of units sold 13,000
Selling price per unit $16
Variable selling expense per unit $2
Variable administrative expense per unit $3
Total fixed selling expense $21,000
Total fixed administrative expense $15,000
Beginning merchandise inventory $11,000
Ending merchandise inventory $25,000
Merchandise purchases $88,000
First, we need to calculate the cost of goods sold:
COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods manufactured - ending finished inventory
COGS= 11,000 + 88,000 - 25,000= 74,000
1) Traditional income statement:
Sales= 13,000*16= 208,000
COGS= (74,000)
Gross profit= 134,000
Total selling expense= (2*13,000) + 21,000= (47,000)
Total administrative expense= (3*13,000) + 15,000= (54,000)
Net operating income= 33,000
2) Contribution format income statement:
Total variable cost= (3 + 2)*13,000 + 74,000= $139,000
Sales= 208,000
Total variable cost= (139,000)
Contribution margin= 69,000
Total fixed selling expense= (21,000)
Total fixed administrative expense= (15,000)
Net operating income= 33,000
Carroll Corporation has two products, Q and P. During June, the company's net operating income was $24,000, and the common fixed expenses were $52,000. The contribution margin ratio for Product Q was 40%, its sales were $137,000, and its segment margin was $44,000. If the contribution margin for Product P was $42,000, the segment margin for Product P was:
Answer:
$32,000= Segment margin product P
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Company net operating income= $24,000
Common fixed costs= $52,000
Product Q:
Segment margin= $44,000
Contribution margin for Product P= $42,000
We need to calculate the segment margin for Product P.
Net income= Segment margin product P + Segment margin product Q - common fixed costs
24,000= Segment margin product P + 44,000 - 52,000
32,000= Segment margin product P

. Gwen is leading a meeting and wants to make sure that they stick to the agenda and end on time. What should she do to move the meeting along? a. Say as much as possible during the meeting. b. Move divergent topics to a separate list to be discussed later. c. Not worry so much about time; the most important thing is to make sure that all agenda items are discussed fully. d. Ask anyone who monopolizes the conversation to leave.
Answer:
b.
Explanation:
When leading a meeting with many different topics, the best way to move the meeting along faster so that it ends in time is to move divergent topics to a separate list to be discussed later. This would remove the unimportant topics from that specific meeting and allow the very specific important topics to be discussed thoroughly in that meeting, thus moving it along but still being as efficient as possible. The divergent topics can be scheduled to be discussed at a later date when they are of a higher priority.
Which two answers identify the two middle core processes, i.e. core process 3 and 4? (choose two)
a. Build and test the system
b. Plan and monitor the project
c. Understand the details of the problem
d. Design the components
Answer:
c. Understand the details of the problem
d. Design the components
Explanation:
Systems development life cycle (SDLC) consists of six main phases:
System planningSystem analysis: involves understanding the details of the problem to be solved by the proposed system. What are the end-users' requirements and expectations?System design: involves designing the components, elements interfaces and architecture of the proposed system. System implementation and deploymentSystem testing and integrationSystem maintenanceMarina had an accident with her car and the repair bill came to $900. She didn't have any emergency fund money and no extra
money in her monthly budget, so she ended up borrowing from a pay-day loan company. As long as she can pay the loan back at
the end of the 30 day period she won't be charged any interest, technically. However, she did have to pay an $18 processing fee
per $100 that she borrowed.
If she were to consider the processing fee to represent interest paid in her formula, what would she discover to
be the annual interest rate she was charged on her short term loan?
Answer:
216%
Explanation:
Ordinary interest is computed on the basis of a 360-day year, so Marina's borrowing period is 1/12 of a year. The annual rate is then 12 times the rate Marina pays for 30 days:
12 × 18/100 = 216/100 = 216%
Marina would discover the annual interest rate is 216%.
In the context of the competitive environment of business, unlike leading-edge firms, bleeding-edge firms offer products just as the market becomes ready to embrace them. a. True b. False
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Bleeding edge firms provide products that are untested and carry a high risk. Products are unreliable and lead adopters stand the risk of making big losses in event that the product is not well received in the market
Leading edge firms on the other hand deal in products that are well tested and accepted by the market.
So the statement that - unlike leading-edge firms, bleeding-edge firms offer products just as the market becomes ready to embrace them. Is not true
Products offered by bleeding edge firms are not embraced by the market as they are untested and risky
The Rehe Comany sells its razors at $3 per unit. The company uses a first-in, first-out actual costing system.

1. Prepare income statements based on variable costing for each of the two years.
2. Prepare income statements based on absorption costing for each of the two years.
3. Prepare a numerical reconciliation and explanation of the difference between operating income for each year under absorption costing and variable costing.
4. Critics have claimed that a widely used accounting system has led to undesirable buildups of inventory levels. (a) Is variable costing or absorption costing more likely to lead to such buildups? Why? (b) What can be done to counteract undesirable inventory buildups?
Answer:
2011 2012
Sales 1000 units 1200 units
Production 1400 1000
Costs:
Variable manufacturing $700 $500

Fixed manufacturing $700 $700
Variable operating (marketing) $1000 $1200
Fixed operating (marketing) $400 $400
cogs under absorption costing 2011 = ($1,400 / 1,400) x 1,000 = $1,000
cogs under absorption costing 2012 = $400 + ($1,200 / 1,000) x 800 = $1,360

Operating costs: ($1,400) ($1,600)
Net operating income: $600 $640
3. Under variable costing, closing inventory = 400 units x $0.50 (variable production costs per unit) = $200.
Under absorption costing, closing inventory = 400 units x $1 (production cost per unit) = $400
Since closing inventory is $200 higher under absorption costing, then net operating income during 2011 increases by $200.
4. a) Variable costing is more likely to result in inventory buildups. Since variable costing determines the value of closing inventory only using variable manufacturing costs, their value is much lower. E.g. in this case the value of closing inventory 2011 under variable costing is $200, while under absorption costing it is $400. This means that less costs are transferred from one year to another.
b) Cost of goods sold must include all production costs (both variable and fixed). This way COGS costs cannot be over estimated during one year and under estimated the next.
The following items are reported on a company's balance sheet: Cash $510,000 Marketable securities 398,500 Accounts receivable (net) 338,900 Inventory 346,500 Accounts payable 693,000 Determine (a) the current ratio and (b) the quick ratio. Round to one decimal place. a. Current ratio b. Quick ratio
Answer:
Current ratio= 2.3
Quick ratio= 1.8
Explanation:
Cash=$510,000
Marketable securities= $398,000
Account receivables= $338,900
Inventory= $346,000
Account payable = $693,000
Curent ratio= current assets/current liability
Current assets= cash+ marketable securities+ Account receivables+inventory
Current liability= Account payable
($510,000+$398,000+$338,900+$346,000)/$693,000
= $1,592,900/$693,000
= 2.29
Current ratio = 2.3 ( to 1 decimal place)
ii) Quick ratio= ( cash+ marketable securities+ Account receivable)/Current liability
=$510,000+$398,000+$338,900/$693,000
= $1,246,900/$693,000
= 1.79.
Quick ratio = 1.8 ( to 1 decimal place)
Answer: Current ratio 2.3
Quick ratio 1.8
Explanation:
Given Data:
Cash = $510,000
Marketable securities = $398,500
Account receivable ( net) = $338,900
Inventory = $346,500
Accounts payable = $693,000
( a.) The current ratio : this helps to determine the relationship between current assets and current liabilities
= current assets / current liabilities
Currents assets = ( cash + marketable securities + inventory + account receivable )
= $( 510,000 + 398,500 + 338,900 + 346,500)
= $1,593,900
Current liabilities = $693,000
Current ratio = $1,593,900 / $693,000
= 2.3
(b) Quick ratio is the ratio of quick asset against current liabilities.
Quick assets ( cash + marketable securities + accounts receivable)
= $( 510,000 + 398,500 + 338,900)
= $1,247,400
Quick ratio = $1,247,400 / $693,000
= 1.8
All of the following are techniques being used to make data centers more "green" except:________.
a) use of hydropower.
b) air-cooling.
c) use of wind power.
d) use of backup generators.
e) virtualization.
Answer:
d) use of backup generators.
Explanation:
Going green is a term used for practices that protect the environment by reducing, reusing and recycling resources. It involves engaging in ecologically friendly decisions and lifestyles with a view of preserving natural resources for future generations.
The use of backup generator causes production of green house gases like carbon dioxide. Green house gases erode the ozone layer and increases global warming.
The other options like use of hydropower, air cooling, use of wind power, and virtualisation do not have adverse effect on the environment.
g Real and nominal variables are highly intertwined, and changes in the money supply change real GDP. Most economists would agree that this statement accurately describes a. both the short run and the long run. b. the short run, but not the long run. c. the long run, but not the short run. d. neither the long run nor the short run.
Answer:
The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
GDP usually, is fixed in the short run. Thus, in the short-term, money supply will increase aggregate demand and prices will follow.
In the long term, however, real GDP (which is economic output that has been adjusted for price fluctuations), an increase in the money supply will create an increase in the GDP due to aggregate demand.
The US economy, for example, displays a strong positive correlation between the amount of money supplied and it's GDP growth between 1994 and 2009.

Prist Co. had not provided a warranty on its products, but competitive pressures forced management to add this feature at the beginning of 2016. Based on an analysis of customer complaints made over the past two years, the cost of a warranty program was estimated at 0.2% of sales. During 2016, sales totaled $4,208,000. Actual costs of servicing products under warranty totaled $19,900.
Required:
Record the journal entry to show the effect of having the warranty program during 2019. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)

Management of Mittel Rhein AG of Köln, Germany, would like to reduce the amount of time between when a customer places an order and when the order is shipped. For the first quarter of operations during the current year the following data were reported: Inspection time 0.3 days Wait time (from order to start of production) 14.0 days Process time 2.7 days Move time 1.0 days Queue time 5.0 days
1.Compute the throughput time.
2. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for the quarter. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
3. What percentage of the throughput time was spent in non–value-added activities? (Enter your answer as a percentage (i.e., 0.12 should be entered as 12).)
4.Compute the delivery cycle time.
5. If by using Lean Production all queue time during production is eliminated, what will be the new MCE? (Round your percentage answer to 1 decimal place (i.e., 0.123 should be entered as 12.3).)
Answer:
1. The throughput time is 9 days
2. The MCE is 0.30
3. 70% of the throughput time was spent on non-value added activities.
4. The delivery cycle time is 23 days
5. The New MCE is 67.5%
Explanation:
1. To calculate the throughput time we would have to use to make the following calculation:
throughput time=process time+inspection time+movie time+queue time
throughput time=2.7+0.3+1+5
throughput time=9 days
2. To calculate the MCE we would have to use to make the following calculation:
MCE=value added time/throughput time
MCE=2.7/9=0.30
3. MCE is 30% which means that out of the total throughput time, time spent on value added activities was 30%. Thus it means that 70% of the throughput time was spent on non-value added activities.
4. To calculate the delivery cycle time we would have to use to make the following calculation:
delivery cycle time=wait time+throughput time
delivery cycle time=14+9=23 days
5. To calculate the new MCE we would have to use to make the following calculation:
New MCE=value added time/throughput time
New MCE=2.7/4
New MCE=67.5%
1. Based on the information given the throughput time is 9 days.
2. The manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for the quarter is 30%.
3. The percentage of the throughput time is 70%.
4. The delivery cycle time is 23 days.
5. The New MCE is 68%.
1. Throughput time
Throughput time = Process time + Inspection time + Move time + Queue time
Throughput time= 2.7 +0.3+ 1.0 + 5.0
Throughput time=9 days
2. Manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE)
Manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) = Value-added time / Throughput time
Manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) = 2.7 /9
Manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE)=30%
3. Non-value-added activities
Non-value-added activities = 100% - 30%
Non-value-added activities = 70%
4. Delivery cycle time
Delivery cycle time = Wait time + throughput time
Delivery cycle time = 14.0 + 9.0
Delivery cycle time = 23 days
5. New MCE
New MCE = Value-added time / Throughput time
New MCE=2.7/(0.3+2.7+1.0)
New MCE 2.7 / 4
New MCE =67.5%
New MCE =68% (Approximately)

You would like to combine a risky stock with a beta of 1.87 with U.S. Treasury bills in such a way that the risk level of the portfolio is equivalent to the risk level of the overall market. What percentage of the portfolio should be invested in the risky stock
Answer:
46.5%
Explanation:
The treasury bills have zero beta as they have no systematic risk. Beta is used in the Capital asset pricing Model to demonstrate a relationship between systematic risk and rate of return.
Expected Return = Rf + Beta * Rp
The percentage that should be invested in the risky portfolio will be,
1 - 1 / Beta
1 - 1 / 1.87
= 46.5%

At Jose's Bakersfield Espresso, Jose charges $3.50 for an average cup of espresso. If his fixed cost (salary, insurance, etc.) are $100,000 a year, and the variable cost for each cup of espresso are $1.25.
A) State the total fixed cost
B) State the variable cost
C)State the price
D) Given the available data, at what quantity will Jose's Bakersfield Espresso break even?
Answer:
A. $100,000
B. $1.25 per unit
C. $3.5 per unit
D. Break even point = 44,444 units
Explanation:
Break even point denotes that level of sales at which total costs equal or even total revenues.
Contribution represents the sales revenue in excess of variable costs to cover up for fixed costs.
Break even point in units = [tex]\frac{Fixed\ Cost}{Contribution\ per\ unit}[/tex]
Contribution per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit
Contribution per unit = $3.50 - $1.25 = $2.25
Break even point = [tex]\frac{100,000}{2.25}[/tex] = 44,444 units approx.
Consider the following data for two products of Gitano Manufacturing. (Loss amounts should be indicated with a minus sign. Round your intermediate calculations and "OH rate and cost per unit" answers to 2 decimal places.)
Product A Product B
Number of units produced 11,500 units 1.700 units
Direct labor cost ($29 per DLH) 0.16 DLH per unit 0.24 DLH per unit
Direct materials cost $2.10 per unit $3.10 per unit
Activity Overhead costs
Machine setup $94,104
Materials handling 53,000
Quality control inspections 73.200
$220,304
Required
a. Using direct labor hours as the basis for assigning overhoad costs, determine the total production cost per unit for each product line.
b. If the market price for Product A is $28.68 and the market price for Product B is $58, determine the profit or loss per unit for each.
c. Consider the following additional information about these two product lines. If ABC is used for assigning overhead costs to what is the cost per unit for Product A and for Product B?
Answer:
a. Product A $257,830 , Product B $57,086
b. Product A $71,990 , Product B $41,514
c. Hie, for this part of the question there is missing information regarding the Activities for the two Products for each Activity Center.
However the Procedure to deal with the required is explained below :
Step 1 : Determine the Overhead Absorption Rate for Each Activity Center
(We have three Activity Centers: Machine setup, Materials handling: Quality control inspections )
Overhead Absorption Rate = Total Overhead (for each) / Total Number of Activity
Step 2: Absorb the Costs in the products using the Rate for each cost center and the number of activity incurred in each cost center for the two Products
Overhead (Activity Center) = Overhead Absorption Rate× Activity Specific to the Product.
Step 3 : Determine the Total Costs
Total Cost for one Product would include the Total Costs for each Activity Center (which are your overheads) plus the Direct Labor and Direct Material Costs as Calculated in Part b.
Explanation:
Part a
Total Production Cost = Direct Costs + Indirect costs (overheads)
First determine the predetermined rate based on direct labor hours.
Total direct labor hours.
Product A (11,500×0.16) = 1,840
Product B (1.700×0.24) = 408
Total = 2,248
Predetermined rate = total overhead cost / total direct labor hours
= $220,304 / 2,248
= $98 per labor hour
Assigning Overhead Cost
Total Overhead Costs
Product A (1,840×$98) = 180,320
Product B (408×$98) = 39,984
Total = 220,304
Total Costs
Product A Product B
Direct labor cost
Product A ( 1,840×$29) 53,360
Product B (408×$29) 11,832
Direct materials cost
Product A ( 11,500×$2.10) 24,150
Product B (1.700×$3.10) 5,270
Overheads
Product A 180,320
Product B 39,984
Total Costs 257,830 57,086
Part b.
Profit = Selling Price - Expenses
Product A Product B
Sales
Product A ( 11,500×$28.68) 329,820
Product B (1.700×$58) 98,600
Manufacturing Costs (257,830) (57,086)
Profit 71,990 41,514
As a manager your organization is constantly confronted with a variety of changes in the market or a wide range of situations. You have to recruit and select a manager for a group of employees responsible for several related products. You have just read about Fiedler’s Contingency model and decided to use the LPC score to aid you in selecting a leader for the management group. You have interviewed four candidates for the job (Erin, Josh, Michael, Tabitha) and the scores for each of the candidates were Erin=high LPC, Josh=moderately high LPC, Michael=middle LPC, Tabitha=low LPC. Which of the candidates would you hire?A. ErinB. JoshC. MichaelD. TabithaE. None of these.
Answer:
C. Michael
Explanation:
The least preferred coworker scale is a method used to determine the leadership style of individuals. It was developed by Fred Fiedler and American scholar.
When a person gives positive feedback on coworkers they are more relationship oriented and get a high LPC score.
For those that give negative feedback on coworkers, they are task oriented and will get low LPC scores.
Relationship oriented style is used when employees are experienced and know what to do, while task oriented leadership is needed when the team is less experienced or results need to be delivered in a short time.
The organization is constantly confronted with a variety of changes in the market or a wide range of situations. So this requires a mix of both relationship and task oriented leadership to adapt to changing organisational needs.
Michael is the best option with middle LPC score.

Isabella files her income tax return 35 days after the due date of the return without obtaining an extension from the IRS. Along with the return, she remits a check for $40,000, which is the balance of the tax she owes.Note: Assume 30 days in a month.Disregarding the interest element, enter Isabella's failure to file penalty and and failure to pay penalty.
Answer:
a. Failure to pay penalty = 400
b. Failure to file penalty = $4,000
Explanation:
The monthly rate for failure to pay penalty is 0.5% while the failure to file penalty.
Since it is assumed that there are 30 days in a month, the 35 days after the due date of the return without obtaining an extension from the IRS is will be counted as 2 months regardless of the fact that the second month is just 5 files when she filed.
Therefore, we have:
a. Failure to pay penalty = $40,000 * 0.5% * 2 = 400
b. Failure to file penalty = ($40,000 * 5% * 2) = $4,000
c. Total penalties = (Failure to file penalty - failure to pay penalty for the same period) + Failure to pay penalty = ($4,000 - $400) + $400 = $4,000.
Therefore, the total penalty Isabella will pay is $4,000.
Consider the following scenario and Identify which formal research method would be appropriate.
1. You are preparing a comprehensive report on telecommunication practices in your industry. You need some background information on the history of Internet use in professional environments.
A. Access traditional sources and electronic sources.
B. Conduct primary research for firsthand information.
C. Conduct a scientific experiment. Routine tasks often require informal research methods.
2. Identify which informal research technique would be most appropriate for each situation. After complaining about parking accommodations at your office, you have been asked by your boss to propose a simple solution that will satisfy your coworkers. The best informal information gathering technique for this situation would be to:_______.
A. Talk with your boss.
B. Conduct an informal survey
C. Look in the files.
3. Read the following scenario, and determine which is the best research approach.
While working for an international development agency, you must develop a presentation about primary and secondary education in the Middle East, a topic you are not familiar with. Which is the best research approach?
A. Formal. On the Internet, find statistics gathered by the United Nations showing the dropout rates of students by gender and age. Request that certain reports be sent to you, so you can examine the date yourself.
B. Informal. To get a local perspective on Middle Eastern affous, we nema to a professor there.
C. Informal. To get a local perspective on Middle Easter affairs, conduct a one survey of me who live in the area.
Answer: 1. A. Access traditional sources and electronic sources.
2. B. Conduct an informal survey
3. A. Formal. On the Internet, find statistics gathered by the United Nations showing the dropout rates of students by gender and age. Request that certain reports be sent to you, so you can examine the date yourself.
Explanation:
1. This is a research into the history of the internet in professional Environments. Considering how long the internet has been around which isn't too long but long enough that first hand information is not readily available, consulting Traditional sources and Electronic sources is the best way to go.
It will have information from the past that you can use to come up with a chronological report on the use of the internet in a professional setting.
2. This is not a serious research and involves your immediate surroundings so an informal method can be used. The best informal method would be an informal survey amongst your co-workers who are also affected by the problem. This survey will help you come up with a solution faster and easier because you are getting first hand information from those directly affected.
3. You are working for an International Development Agency and as such can not afford to present information that is false or void of due procedure in way because it will affect the reputation of the Agency if you do so.
For this reason your sources must be formal sources with definite information and the United Nations is a very good source for that. To go a step further you can request reports and double check the figures yourself to ensure that the information used is of the highest quality and accuracy.
