Correct Answer: Bank Overdrafts should not be included in current liabilities.


Solution : Answer = Bank Overdrafts should not be included in current liabilities.

Bank overdraft is a part of current liabilities. Bank overdrafts are typically classified as current liabilities since they are repayable on demand or within a short timeframe, making them a part of the company's short-term obligations.
Hence, the correct option is 4.

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.

Indian mathematician Nikhil Srivastava, working at the University of California in Berkeley, is among the winners of the Prestigious 2021 Michael and Sheila Held Prize, announced last week by the US National Academy of Sciences (NAS). Adam W. Marcus, EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne), and Daniel Alan Spielman, Yale University, are the other two winners.

"Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava solved longstanding questions on the Kadison-Singer problem and on Ramanujan graphs, and in the process, they uncovered a deep new connection between linear algebra, the geometry of polynomials, and graph theory that has inspired the next generation of theoretical computer scientists," the NAS said in a statement.

An Indian national, Nikhil was born in New Delhi in November 1983 and has attended educational institutions across the world—Syria, the UK, Saudi Arabia, and the US—as his father was an Indian Foreign Services officer, who has served as the Indian ambassador to Uganda and Denmark. At present, Nikhil is an associate professor of mathematics at UC Berkeley. The Michael and Sheila Held Prize is presented annually to honour outstanding, innovative, creative, and influential research in the area of combinatorial mathematics.

I Am 8th Icse so i have to choose commerce or computer Science- what should i choose which is scoring and easy subject

Tanya Gupta 19th Jan, 2024

Hello,


I believe I can answer this question correctly as I had the same option when I was in class 9th. I chose computer and trust me, it's way difficult especially if you are not into computer programming. You'll have to learn computer programming like JAVA, HTML, etc. It will be pretty easy in class 9th but it will get difficult in class 10th. However, if you are well versed with it and are interested, trust me it's a really scoring subject.

If you just want to go with an easier subject, go for commerce.


I hope this helps,

Thank you

The world is undergoing rapid changes in the knowledge landscape. With various dramatic scientific and technological advances, such as the rise of big data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, many unskilled jobs worldwide may be taken over by machines, while the need for a skilled workforce, particularly involving mathematics, computer science, and data science, in conjunction with multidisciplinary abilities across the sciences, social sciences, and humanities, (1)________ increasingly in greater demand. With climate change, increasing pollution, and depleting natural resources, there will be a sizeable shift in how we (2)_______ the world's energy, water, food, and sanitation needs, again resulting in the need for new skilled labour, particularly in biology, chemistry, physics, agriculture, climate science, and social science. The growing (3)________ of epidemics and pandemics will also (4)_______ collaborative research in infectious disease management and development of vaccines, and the resultant social issues heighten the need for multidisciplinary learning. There will be a growing (5)__________ for humanities and art as India moves towards becoming a developed country as well as among the three largest economies in the world.

Question:

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank number 3.

Option 1: wane

Option 2: dissolution

Option 3: emergence

Option 4: need

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024
