Options:

very high, given both expectancy and valence levels are elevated

moderately high, since high valence and instrumentality compensate for low expectancy

moderate, as high expectancy and valence levels counteract low instrumentality

low, since motivation requires high expectancy, instrumentality, and valence.

Answer:

low, since motivation hinges on high expectancy, instrumentality, and valence.

Explanation:

The expectancy theory of motivation posits that an individual will be driven to perform if they perceive their efforts will yield a positive reaction from their employer or result in satisfactory compensation. An employee who doubts their ability to meet the demands for a promotion will have a diminished level of motivation.

Answer:

Explanation:

Current liabilities refer to obligations due within one year or less.

The classification is as follows:

a. A note payable for $100,000 due in 2 years. = Not classified as a current liability, as it is due in 2 years and classified as long-term liability.

b. A 10-year mortgage of $300,000 to be paid in ten annual payments of $30,000. = Only the first payment is a current liability; the rest are long-term liabilities.

c. An interest payment of $15,000 on the mortgage. = This is a current liability since it is due within one year.

d. Accounts payable of $60,000. = This is also a current liability because it is due within one year.

Current liabilities are recorded on the liability side of the balance sheet.

Answer:

An increase of $5,000

Explanation:

Since Martha owns a primary residence in Houston and rented it out for 10 days this year, it qualifies as her personal residence because it's rented for fewer than 14 days, resulting in no deductions available for her rental income.

Response: $1091.61

Clarification:

Based on the inquiry, fifteen years ago, Mr. Fairhold invested $50,000 in a single-premium annuity contract, and this year, he began to receive a monthly payment of $1,300 that will last throughout his lifetime, with an expected total of $312,000. The taxable amount of each monthly payment for Mr. Fairhold is calculated as follows:

In accordance with the inquiry, Mr. Fairhold will recoup his $50,000 tax-free. The exclusion ratio is formulated by dividing the investment by the anticipated return. This yields:

= $50,000/$312,000

= 0.1603

Given that he receives a monthly payment of $1,300 and the exclusion ratio stands at 0.1603, the tax-free return on investment would then amount to:

= $1,300 × 0.1603

= $208.39

Taxable portion of the annuity payment will therefore be:

= $1300 - $208.39

= $1091.61
