Answer:
It will make yearly deposits of $ 6,053.60
Explanation:
First, we have two phases:
the first which is the accumulation phase:
<---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|--->
^
which lasts until Sam's 1st year.
Then, we have the withdrawals phase
Graduation of Ellie
<---|----|----|----|----|----|---->
^Sam 1st year
^Ellie 1st year
We solve for the value of sam's first college year.
21,225 (1.03)^16 = 34,059.89
Then we solve for the present value of a growing annuity:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{P}{r-g} \left[1 - \left(\frac{1+g}{1+r}\right)^n \right] \\P = $first payment\\r = interest\\g= growth\\n = time[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{34059.89}{0.09-0.03} \left[1 - \left(\frac{1+0.03}{1+0.09}\right)^4 \right][/tex]
PV = 115,043.63
Then we do the same with Ellie:
P $36,134.1373 (we adjust by two years)
r 0.09
g 0.03
n 4
PV 122,049.78
and then, we adjust for the 2-years difference:
122,049.78 / 1.09^2 = 102726.8613
Value of tuiton cost in 16 years for both daughters:
115,043.63 + 102,726.86 = 217,770.49
Now we solve for the yearly payment of an annuity due ( as the professor pays at the beginning) of 16 years:
Installment of a future annuity
[tex]FV \div \displaystyle \frac{(1+r)^{time} +1}{rate}(1+rate) = C\\[/tex]
FV $217,770.49
time 16
rate 0.09
[tex]217770.49 \div \frac{(1+0.09)^{16}-1 }{0.09} = C\\[/tex]
C $ 6,053.602

Mark produced 9 cans of sauce with 3 pounds of tomatoes. When he increased to 5 pounds, he produced 13 cans. What is the marginal product?
Answer:
Marginal Product is 2
Explanation:
Marginal Product (MP) is defined as the ration of change in quantity of output produced to the change in quantity of input raw material
Change in quantity of input raw material [tex]= 5 -3 = 2[/tex]
Change in quantity of output of products = 13 - 9 = 4
Marginal Product (MP) [tex]= \frac{4}{2} = 2[/tex]
Marginal Product is 2
External hiring reduces organizational diversity.
Answer:
The statement is not true.
Explanation:
External hiring does not reduce organizational diversity, it actually does the opposite: it increases organizational diversity.
External allows managers to include in their working teams new mebers who bring different knowledge and experience to the organization. In fact, one of the main motivations for managers to engage in external hiring is precisely increasing the variety of viewpoints inside the firm.
An investor is in a 30% combined federal plus state tax bracket. If corporate bonds offer 8.75% yields, what yield must municipals offer for the investor to prefer them to corporate bonds
Answer:
6.125%
Explanation:
Calculation for what yield must municipals offer for the investor to prefer them to corporate bonds
The after-tax yield on the corporate bonds is: 8.75% x (1 - 0.30)
The after-tax yield on the corporate bonds is= 0.0875x 0.7
The after-tax yield on the corporate bonds is= 0.06125*100
The after-tax yield on the corporate bonds is= 6.125%
Therefore what yield must municipals offer for the investor to prefer them to corporate bonds is
6.125%
c. During a conversation with the credit manager, one of Tabor's sales representatives learns that a $1,281 receivable from a bankrupt customer has not been written off but was considered in the determination of the appropriate year-end balance of the Allowance for Bad Debts account balance. What is the effect of write-off on 2019 net income
Answer:
Tabor
The effect of the write-off of the bad debt or uncollectible is a reduction of the 2019 net income by $1,281.
Explanation:
The write-off of the bad debt also reduces the Allowance for Bad Debts account balance and the Accounts Receivable balance in the account of Tabor by $1,281. The purpose is to accurately report Tabor's net income by taking into account all expenses and losses, just as all revenues and incomes must be accounted for. This gives a more accurate picture of Tabor's financial performance during the current financial period.
WeeBee Company has three assembly labor dassifications: 5-1, S-2, and S-3. The three dassifications are paid $16, $19, and $22 per hour, respectively. The assembly activity for a product uses an S-2 employee who performs that task in 24 minutes. To reduce the activity cost per unit, a product engineer proposes using a low rated employee who can perform the assembly in 21 minutes. A manager proposes using a lower-rated employee who can perform the assembly in 30 minutes Which of the following provides the most cost-effective solution?
a. use the S-2 employee
b. use either the 5-1 or 5-3 employee
c. use the S-3 employee
d. use the S-1 employee

Kogler Corporation's relevant range of activity is 7,000 units to 11,000 units. When it produces and sells 9,000 units, its average costs per unit are as follows:
Average cost per unit
Direct Materials $4.85
Direct Labor $4.70
Variable manufacturing overhead $1.65
Fixed manufacturing overhead $10.00
Fixed selling expense $3.45
Fixed administrative expense $1.50
Sales commissions $0.60
Variable administrative expense $0.55
If the selling price is $27.00 per unit, the contribution margin per unit sold is closest to:
A: $17.45
B: $0.30
C: $14.65
D: $5.80
Answer:
the contribution margin is $14.65
Explanation:
The computation of the contribution margin is shown below:
As we know that
Contribution Margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable costs per unit
= ($27) - ($4.85 + $4.70 + $1.65 + $0.60 + $0.55)
= $27 - $12.35
= $14.65
Hence, the contribution margin is $14.65
Damian invests $5,000 today in an account earning 6% per year. How much is the investment worth in 4 years
Answer:
$6,312
Explanation:
The amount that the investment will be worth in 4 years is known as the future value. We compound the Present Value using the interest rate to determine the future value.
Note : Here I will use a financial calculator to compute the future value
PV = $5,000
r = 6 %
P/yr = 1
n = 4
Pmt = $0
Fv = ?
Thus, the investment will be worth $6,312 in 4 years.

Suppose that the U.S. government decides to charge wine producers a tax. Before the tax, 10 million bottles of wine were sold every month at a price of $4 per bottle. After the tax, 3 million bottles of wine are sold every month; consumers pay $7 per bottle, and producers receive $2 per bottle (after paying the tax).
The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is -----per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is-------per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is------per bottle.
True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been smaller if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a) True
b) False
Answer:
The amount of the tax on a bottle of wine is $5 per bottle. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $3 per bottle, and the burden that falls on producers is $2 per bottle.
tax per bottle = $7 - $2 = $5consumers pay an extra $7 - $4 = $3 per bottleproducers pay $7 - $5 = $2 per bottle
True or False: The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been smaller if the tax had been levied on consumers.
b) False
The negative effect is the same regardless of who pays for it. Taxes create deadweight losses that affect both producers and consumers.
To avoid insolvency, regulators decide to provide the bank with $25 million in bank capital. However, the bad news about the mortgages is featured in the local newspaper, causing a bank run. As a result, $30 million in deposits is withdrawn. Show the effects of the capital injection and the bank run on the balance sheet. Was the capital injection enough to stabilize the bank
Answer:
1. With the bank run and capital injection, more cash was made available for the bank. There was increased demand on the bank to refund the deposits of customers.
2. The capital injection was not enough to stabilize the bank. At least additional $5 million was required to meet the demand of the customers.
Explanation:
A bank run occurs when a greater number of a bank's customers demand the withdrawal of their deposits. This event causes a spiral reaction that eventually leads to more customers withdrawing their deposits, resulting in the bank's collapse if no outside capital injection is made within the shortest period of time.
Barbara's Bakery purchased three new 7-year assets last year. She chose NOT to use Section 179 immediate expensing or take bonus depreciation. The furnishings were purchased for $15,000 in April, the equipment for $6,000 in July, and the appliances for $40,000 in November. Using the appropriate MACRS depreciation tables in the Appendix, what amount of depreciation expense is allowable in the current (second) year of ownership?
a) $16,806
b) $14,939
c) $16,163
d) $16,072
Answer:
$ 4,748
Explanation:
The depreciation expenses = [tex]$(\$ 15000 \times 17.85 \%) + (\$ 6000 \times 10.71 \%)+(\$ 40000 \times 3.57 \%)$[/tex]
[tex]$= \$ 2677.50 + \$ 642.6 + \$ 1428$[/tex]
= $ 4748
Generally we have use half year convention for assets that are purchased during the year but here we used the mid quarter as of more than the 40% of the assets are being purchased in last quarter of the year
[tex]$=\frac{\text{assets purchased in last quarter}}{\text{total assets purchased in the year}} \times 100$[/tex]
[tex]$=\frac{40000}{61000} \times 100$[/tex]
[tex]$=65.57 \%$[/tex] (it is more than 40%)
Thus we can use the mid quarter mars depreciation rates for the 7 years assets that are purchased this year.

If you are the Bhutanese student then I am sure this question came in 2017 BHSEC. Best of luck.
"Easton Company uses 2019: Date Activity Quantity Unit Price 5/1 Beginning Inventory 130 $11 5/5 Purchase 280 $13 5/15 Purchase 140 $15 5/25 Purchase 160 $17 Sales were 430 units at $25. Using the FIFO method, determine the dollar value of Ending Inventory for the month of May.”
Answer:
$4,520
Explanation:
The computation of the dollar value of the ending inventory using the FIFO method is as follows:
But before that the ending inventory is
= Beginning inventory + purchased units + purchased units + purchased units - sales units
= 130 units + 280 units + 140 units + 160 units - 430 units
= 280 units
Now the ending inventory is
= 160 units × $17 + (280 units - 160 units) × $15
= $2,720 + $1,800
= $4,520

Explanation:
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 excluded the deduction of alimony payment. This means that any alimony payment made to a spouse (if the divorce was settled after January 1, 2018) is not deductible anymore. nor it will be included in the gross income of the spouse that receives it. Basically, the IRS doesn't consider them anymore.

Sandra would like to organize LAB as either an LLC (taxed as a sole proprietorship) or a C corporation. In either form, the entity is expected to generate an 9 percent annual before-tax return on a $710,000 investment. Sandraâs marginal income tax rate is 37 percent, and her tax rate on dividends and capital gains is 23.8 percent (including the 3.8 percent net investment income tax). If Sandra organizes LAB as an LLC, she will be required to pay an additional 2.9 percent for self-employment tax and an additional 0.9 percent for the additional Medicare tax. LABâs income is not qualified business income (QBI) so Sandra is not allowed to claim the QBI deduction. Assume that LAB will distribute all of its after-tax earnings every year as a dividend if it is formed as a C corporation. (Round your intermediate computations to the nearest whole dollar amount.)
Required:
a. How much cash after taxes would Sandra receive from her investment in the first year if BAL is organized as either an LLC or a C corporation?
b. What is the overall tax rate on BALâs income in the first year if BAL is organized as an LLC or as a C corporation?
Answer:
Sandra
LAB LLC (taxed as a sole proprietorship)
Annual Income = $63,900
Additional self-employment tax (2.9%) = $1,853 (2.9% * $63,900)
Additional Medicare tax (0.9%) = $575
FICA Tax rate (7.65%) = $4,888
After-tax income $56,584
Tax expense = $7,316 ($63,900 - $56,584)
LAB (taxed as a C corporation)
After-tax income = $40,257 ($63,900 - $23,643)
Dividends and capital gains = $8,051.40 (20% excluding the 3.8%)
Income after dividends and capital gains $32,206
Tax expense = $31,694 ($63,900 - 32,206)
b. Overall tax rate on BAL's income:
1. Organized as an LLC
$7,316/$63,900 * 100
= 11.45%
2. Organized as a C Corporation:
$31,694/$63,900 * 100
= 49.6%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Expected annual before-tax return = 9%
Investment = $710,000
The annual return = $63,900 ($710,000 * 9%)
Marginal income tax rate = 37%
Income tax expense = $23,643 ($63,900 * 37%)
After-tax income = $40,257 ($63,900 - $23,643)
Dividends and capital gains = $8,051 (20% excluding the 3.8%)
Income after dividends and capital gains $32,206
