Assuming that the company uses the direct method rather than the step-down method to allocate service department costs, how much cost would be assigned to each operating department? (Please enter allocations from a department as negative and allocations to a department as positive. The line should add across to zero. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to the nearest dollar amount.) |

In the current tax year, suppose that 3% of the millions of individual tax returns have errors or are fraudulent. Although these errors are often well concealed, let’s suppose that a through IRS audit (done by you of course) will uncover them. If a random 100 tax returns are audited what is the probability that the IRS will uncover at most 4 fraudulent returns? Create an Excel spreadsheet that may give you an idea about this probability. Hint: Use the RAND() function for every tax return. The RAND() function generates a random number between 0 and 1. If the RAND() function gives you a number that is less than or equal to 0.03 then you can assume that the return contains error. Otherwise you can assume that the return does not contain any error. You can press F9 on your keyboard to regenerate a new instance. You may have to create enough instances to come up with a good approximation of the probability value. You can also find the exact probability using Binomial Distribution. What does it mean if an IRS auditor uncovers no more than 3 fraudulent/erroneous returns for every 100 tax returns?
Please in Excel.

Hawaiian Smoothies Company purchases fruit directly from growers and produces fresh fruit smoothies and juice blends with their special recipes. Sales revenue in 2017 was $4,400,000, Variable costs were 60% of sales and fixed costs were $1,400,000. Hawaiian Smoothies is evaluating two alternatives designed to enhance profitability.
Alternative one – Hawaiian Smoothies is considering purchasing automated processing equipment for preparing pineapples more efficiently. This strategy would increase fixed costs by $300,000 but decrease variable costs to 54% of sales.
Alternative two – Hawaiian Smoothies is considering the possibility of outsourcing their fruit processing to the Pineapple Press People, LLC. This would reduce fixed costs by $300,000 but increase variable costs to 65% of sales.
Answer the following questions based on the information above:
1- What is the current break-even point in sales dollars?
2- Ignoring taxes, what dollar sales volume is currently required to obtain a profit of $500,000?
3- Ignoring taxes, at what sales volume will both alternatives provide the same profit?
4- What are two weaknesses and two strengths for each alternative that Hawaiian Smoothie should consider?
5- What do you recommend Hawaiian Smoothies do, and why?

Patient scenario
Mr. Singh is a 38-year old who practices power lifting 4 times per week. Usually Mr. Singh can “grip it and rip it” when performing 113 kg deadlifts but recently he has been having difficulty gripping the bar and experiencing fatigue and tingling in his hands. Mr. Singh’s trainer, Josephine, recommends he take a week off of working out before pushing his body any further. Dan returns to the gym a week later and attempts to bench press at a lighter weight to get warmed up. Josephine has to quickly spot him in a missed attempt. Mr. Singh becomes despondent and admits something might be wrong because he is still experiencing tingling, pain and weakness in his hands and now his feet as well.
Discussion Question: Research Mr. Singh's symptoms and determine a differential diagnosis by listing at least two different possible conditions that match some or all of Mr. Singh's symptoms. Justify why you selected each of the conditions on your list.
Write a detailed answer to the discussion question. Your post must be at least 3-4 sentences per differential diagnosis

This is my code. It works but not the way I want it to. I need the user to input a sentence and the output to say how many words, letters, and characters there are in the sentence. In order for this code to give an output I've been having to type the sentence, press enter a few times, then a letter and then it gives me my output. Please help

Suppose you work in public relations for a company that is developing an attractive, affordable, low-emissions car. The company's engineers have just discovered that the car's fuel tank is placed so that in a very rare kind of crash (1 out of 10,000), the car will instantly explode, killing the people inside. This means that some people who drive the car will die in a horrible accident, but most drivers will be fine. You make sure this information is not made public, and at a press conference you lie and claim that the car is safe. Would a deontologist (someone who subscribes to Immanuel Kant's moral philosophy) say that you acted ethically? Explain why / why not (Be sure to formulate the maxim you act on when you tell the lie and test it. Recall the formula for maxims: "Whenever [circumstances], I'l | [action]"). Determine whether the maxim is consistent with the Categorical Imperative. If the maxim is not consistent with the Categorical Imperative, explain why the maxim fails Kant's test. Next, explain whether an Act Utilitarian would say that you acted ethically (be sure to explain what makes actions right / wrong in general for Act Utilitarianism). What would have to happen to make your lie about the car permissible for the Act Utilitarian?

Write a program that will calculate the sum of the first n odd integers, and the
sum of the first n even integers.
Use a Do while loop
Use a for loop
Here is a sample of how the program should run:
How many odd integers would you like to add? 5
Count Odd Integer Sum
1 1 1
2 3 4
3 5 9
4 7 16
5 9 25
The sum of the first 5 odd integers is 25
How many even integers would you like to add? 7
Count Even Integer Sum
1 2 2
2 4 6
3 6 12
4 8 20
5 10 30
6 12 42
7 14 56
The sum of the first 7 even integers is 56
Do you want to add again? Press y or n
y
How many odd integers would you like to add?
Make sure your program works with any input value from 1 to 1000.
REMEMBER! The sum of the first 5 odd integers is 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9. It is NOT the
sum of the odd integers up to 5

Part 3
Write a C++ program that prompts the user for an Account Number(a whole number). It will then prompt the user for the initial account balance (a double). The user will then enter either w, d, or z to indicate the desire to withdraw an amount from the bank, deposit an amount or end the transactions for that account((accept either uppercase or lowercase). You must use a nested if statements instead of a Switch construct.
Test Run:
Enter the account number: 1
Enter the initial balance: 5000
SAVINGS ACCOUNT TRANSACTION
(W)ithdrawal
(D)eposit
(Z) to end account transaction
Enter first letter of transaction type (W, D or Z): w
Amount: $1000
Balance for this account is now: $4000.00
SAVINGS ACCOUNT TRANSACTION
(W)ithdrawal
(D)eposit
(Z) to end account transaction
Enter first letter of transaction type (W, D or Z): d
Amount: $500
Balance for this account is now: $4500.00
SAVINGS ACCOUNT TRANSACTION
(W)ithdrawal
(D)eposit
(Z) to end account transaction
Enter first letter of transaction type (W, D or Z): z
No more changes.
Balance for this account is now: $4500.00
