The sales budget is the starting point in preparing the master budget.

A company currently manufactures a component part that it uses in its products. The costs to produce 5,000 of these components last year were as follows:   Cost per drive Direct materials $ 12   Direct labor   2   Variable manufacturing overhead   5   Fixed manufacturing overhead   7   Total $ 26   An outside supplier has offered to provide the company with all of its component part needs for $27 per drive. If the company accepts this offer, they will be able to use the freed up space to generate an additional $40,000 of income each year to produce more of another product. Only $3 per part of the fixed manufacturing overhead cost above could be avoided. Direct labor is an avoidable cost in this decision. Based on this information, would the company be financially better off making the component parts or buying them and by how much? 

The primary definitive host for Heterobilharzia americana (Schistosome of dogs) is:

12-Stasera (this evening) Giovanna __________________(uscire) con le sue amiche a ballare.

A patient is referred to out-patient physical therapy for balance and gait training. The patient tells you that she has had to stop walking her dog in the evenings since the time change. She has also started having difficulty walking in her home especially if she needs to get up to use the bathroom at night. Which of the following tests would be MOST appropriate to examine her difficulty walking?

A patient who is status post right CVA experiences spatial neglect. Which of the following characteristics MOST likely relates to her symptoms of spatial neglect?

A patient experienced a right CVA 2 weeks ago. The patient has motor and sensory impairments primarily in the left lower extremity.  The left upper extremity shows only mild impairments.  Based on these findings, which of the following stroke syndromes does this patient present with?

You are working with a patient who is status post stroke. When asked to actively raise the paretic arm or reach for objects, the patient is able to perform approximately 30 degrees of shoulder flexion before the flexor synergy pattern emerges. There is also no dissociation of the scapula and humerus with active movements of the paretic arm.Which of the following activities would be the most appropriate INITIAL intervention to facilitate fractionation of movement and functional reaching out of the abnormal flexor synergy pattern based on motor learning principles? 

Quantity of workers Quantity of foot massages per day Fixed cost Variable cost Total cost Average total cost Marginal cost 0   0           1 10           2 25           3 45           4 60           5 70               31)  Alicia Gregory owns a foot massage business. She leases 4 computer-controlled massage booths, for which she pays $125 per day. She cannot increase the number machines she leases without giving the manufacturer 3 months notice. She can hire as many workers as she wants at a cost of $75 per day per worker. These are the only two inputs she uses in her business. Use this information to fill in the columns in the above table. Since it might not be possible to copy and paste the table to fill it out, simply type out your answer by row: 0: fixed cost, variable cost, total cost, average total cost marginal cost 1: fixed cost, variable cost, total cost, average total cost marginal cost and so. Use commas to separate the values.

You are working with a patient who is status-post stroke on gait training and note they require mod A to accept weight through the paretic leg in stance phase of gait.Which of the following interventions would be the MOST APPROPRIATE INITIAL exercise for teaching the patient weight acceptance through the paretic leg based on motor learning principles?
