First, you can establish an inventory account based on purchased finished products or parts, using EXCEL to replace manual statistics and summarization. It can be viewed as a circulation-type enterprise model, so cost accounting is not as complex as industrial costs. A work hour statistics table should be created to clarify the labor hours and labor costs for an auto repair service. If there is no management need for this, it can be omitted. Expenses incurred during the auto repair process, such as auxiliary materials and the wear and tear of special tools, can be directly recorded as current period expenses.

Is there a time limit for Subject 1?

The exam has a time limit of 45 minutes. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," candidates can take the Subject 1 exam twice on the same day. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, a second free retake is allowed. If the second attempt also fails, the Subject 1 exam is terminated, and the candidate must wait ten days before rescheduling. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The exam covers driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer. The Subject 1 exam consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly, the system will automatically submit the exam and end the test. Subject 1 exam content: Driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and rules; road traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should dress appropriately—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam hall. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting area. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam hall. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned station, find your seat, and begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect and sign your score report—unsigned reports are invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail it, the exam is terminated, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subjects 2 and 3 have only five exam attempts. Subjects 2 and 3 can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."

How many cylinders does the Kawasaki Ninja 400 have?

Kawasaki Ninja 400 is equipped with a four-cylinder engine. Here are the differences between three-cylinder and four-cylinder vehicles: Stability differences: Four-cylinder vehicles obviously have much better stability than three-cylinder ones. This is because the four-cylinder engine works in separate strokes, so the force and reaction force cancel each other out, greatly reducing engine vibration. Three-cylinder engines lack one cylinder, and there is a moment during operation when the engine is not working, making the vibration of three-cylinder engines more noticeable. Structural differences: Three-cylinder engines have a simple structure, are compact, lightweight, and easy to arrange. Four-cylinder engines have a relatively more complex structure with one additional cylinder. In terms of structural design, three-cylinder engines have one fewer cylinder than four-cylinder engines, and correspondingly fewer camshaft accessories.

Can a New Car Be Driven on Long-Distance Highways?

New cars can be driven on long-distance highways. Below are some precautions for driving a new car on highways: Loading Too Light or Too Heavy: When driving on highways, a new car must be in a fully loaded state. Therefore, ensure the vehicle is loaded according to the full-load mass specified in the manual. If you can't find enough passengers, you can fill the trunk with items. Driving on Highways Before the First Maintenance: It is essential to complete the first maintenance before taking a new car on highways. After the first maintenance, potential issues such as bolt torque and fluid levels are checked and resolved, ensuring greater safety. Driving on Highways Before an Oil Change: High-speed driving requires not only skill but also proper timing. The quality of the engine oil is a direct factor affecting the engine. Therefore, avoid driving on highways before an oil change. During high-speed driving, the engine operates at high RPMs, leading to maximum mechanical wear. The first batch of oil contains the most metal shavings and impurities. Using this contaminated oil for high-speed driving can significantly increase engine wear and even cause abnormal damage.
