a. $7,000

b. $8,200

c. $28,200

d. $32,200

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Sylvia will report $28,200 on her tax return.

Option C) $28,200 is the correct Answer

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Combined Income =   ( 4,000 × 8 ) + ( 2000 × 3) = 32,000 + 6,000 = 38,000

Sylvia Separate Income = ( 2000 × 4 ) + ( 200 × 12/2) = 8000 + 1200 = 9,200

Now, the Income that Sylvia will report is;

⇒ (38,000 / 2) + 9200

= 19,000 + 9,200

= 28,200

Therefore Sylvia will report $28,200 on her tax return.

Option C) $28,200 is the correct Answer

The country of Micronesia is currently experiencing a recessionary gap. The size of the recessionary gap is $500 billion. If the marginal propensity to consume is .8, how much will the government need to spend to get the economy to full employment? brainly

Answers

Answer:

The appropriate solution is "100 billion".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Recessionary gap (Total change),

= $500

Marginal propensity consume (MPC),

= 0.8

Now,

Multiplier will be:

= [tex]\frac{1}{1-MPC}[/tex]

On putting the value of MPC, we get

= [tex]\frac{1}{1-0.8}[/tex]

= [tex]5[/tex]

As we know,

⇒ [tex]Total \ change=Government \ spending's \ increase\times Multiplier[/tex]

⇒ [tex]Government \ spending's \ increase=\frac{Total \ change}{Multiplier}[/tex]

On substituting the values, we get

⇒                                                       [tex]=\frac{500}{5}[/tex]

⇒                                                       [tex]=100 \ billion[/tex]

Compute the amount of Coaches and Carriages' net income (or loss) for 2016 assuming that no dividends were paid and the owners made no additional contributions during the year.

Answers

Answer:

1. 2016 -$1,000

2017 $35,000

2.-$1,000

3. $45,000

Explanation:

1. Computation for  the changes in Coaches and Carriages owners’ equity during 2016 and 2017

First step is to calculate owner equity for 2015, 2016 and 2017

Using this formula

Stockholders equity=Assets-Liabilities

Let plug in the formula

2015 Stockholders equity=$25,000-$12,000

2015 Stockholders equity=$13,000

2016 Stockholders equity=$79,000-$76,000

2016 Stockholders equity=$12,000

2017 Stockholders equity=$184,000-$137,000

2017 Stockholders equity=$47,000

Now let Compute for  the changes in Coaches and Carriages owners’ equity during 2016 and 2017

Change in stockholders’ equity during 2016

Using this formula

Changes in stockholders’ equity during 2016 =2016 Stockholders equity-2015 Stockholders equity

Let plug in the formula

Changes in stockholders’ equity during 2016 =$12,000-$13,000

Changes in stockholders’ equity during 2016 =-$1,000

Change in stockholders’ equity during 2017

Using this formula

Changes in stockholders’ equity during 2017=2017 Stockholders equity-2016 Stockholders equity

Let plug in the formula

Changes in stockholders’ equity during 2017 =$47,000-$12,000

Changes in stockholders’ equity during 2017=$35,000

Therefore the changes in Coaches and Carriages owners’ equity during 2016 is -$1,000 and 2017 $35,000

2. Computation for  the amount of Coaches and Carriages’ net income (or loss) for 2016 assuming that no dividends were paid and the owners made no additional contributions during the year.

Using this formula

2016 Coaches and Carriages’ net income (or loss) = Carriages owners’ equity during 2016-Dividend

Let plug in the formula

2016 Coaches and Carriages’ net income (or loss) = -$1,000-$0

2016 Coaches and Carriages’ net loss= -$1,000

Therefore the amount of Coaches and Carriages’ net income (or loss) for 2016 assuming that no dividends were paid and the owners made no additional contributions during the year will be -$1,000

3. Computation for the amount of Coaches and Carriages’ net income (or loss) for 2017 assuming that dividends paid during the year amounted to $10,000 and no additional contributions were made by the owner

Using this formula

2017 Coaches and Carriages’ net income =Ending Stockholders equity- Beginning Stockholders equity +Dividend

Let plug in the formula

2017 Coaches and Carriages’ net income = $47,000-$12,000+$10,000

2017 Coaches and Carriages’ net income=45,000

Therefore the amount of Coaches and Carriages’ net income (or loss) for 2017 assuming that dividends paid during the year amounted to $10,000 and no additional contributions were made by the owner will be $45,000

Your grandparents deposit $2,000 each year on your birthday, starting the day you are born, in an account that pays 7% interest compounded annually. How much will you have in the account on your 21st birthday, just after your grandparents make their deposit

Answers

Answer:

The money you will have is $98020.

Explanation:

It is given that grandparents deposit $2,000 each year on birthday and the account pays 7% interest compounded annually also the time is 21 years.

we will use the compound interest formula  [tex]A=P (1 + \frac{r}{100})^{t}[/tex].

For the first birthday the amount after 21 yr will be:

[tex]A=2000(1+\frac{7}{100})^{21}[/tex]

Similarly for the second birthday amount after 20yr will be:

[tex]A=2000(1+\frac{7}{100})^{20}[/tex]

likewise, the last compound will be:

[tex]A=2000(1+\frac{7}{100})^1[/tex]

The total value of such compounding would be :

[tex]\text {Total amount}=2000(1+\frac{7}{100})^{21}+2000(1+\frac{7}{100})^{20}...2000(1+\frac{7}{100})^{1}[/tex]

[tex]\text {Total amount}=2000[(1+\frac{7}{100})^{21}+(1+\frac{7}{100})^{20}...(1+\frac{7}{100})^{1}][/tex]

[tex]\text{Total amount} \approx 2000(48.01)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Total amount} \approx 96020[/tex]

The total amount just after your grandparents make their​ deposit  is:

≈($96020+2000)

≈$98020

Hence, the money you will have is $98020.

The charter of a corporation provides for the issuance of 112,000 shares of common stock. Assume that 54,000 shares were originally issued and 13,500 were subsequently reacquired. What is the number of shares outstanding

Answers

Answer:

40,500 shares

Explanation:

Calculation for the number of shares outstanding

Using this formula

Number of shares outstanding=Originally issued -Reacquired shares

Let plug in the formula

Number of shares outstanding=54,000 shares-13,500 shares

Number of shares outstanding=40,500 shares

Therefore the number of shares outstanding will be 40,500 shares

A bond fund manager is seeking to increase portfolio returns by selling the short-term bond in his portfolio and using the proceeds to invest in long-term bonds. He argues that since the new bonds would have the same rating as the ones sold, such strategy would enable higher return without increase risk. Discuss the strategy.

Answers

Answer:

He is wrong.

Explanation:

In order to understand this, bonds are basically loans that private individual or funds give to companies, in order to help them with cash or pay debt, they are paid in certain specifications at a certain timeframe, the problem is that interest rate is fixed, so if the market interest rate goes up, the fund is losing money having invested in that company at a lower interest rate, that is why right now it sounds smart to get a longer-term bond, instead of a short term, but in reality that's cash that you will have frozen with that company and in the meantime interest rates probably would go up.

A labor-intensive process has a fixed cost of $338,000 and a variable cost of $143 per unit. A capital-intensive (automated) process for the same product has a fixed cost of $1,244,000 and a vari-able cost of $92.50 per unit. How many units must be produced and sold at $197 each for the auto-mated process to be preferred to the labor-intensive process

Answers

Answer:

the 17,941 units should be produced and sold

Explanation:

The computation of the number of units that should be generated and sold is shown below:

Let us assume the number of units be n

Now as we know that

Total labor cost = variable cost + fixed cost

So the equations are

For labor intensive = $33,8000 + 143 n

And

For capital intensive = $1,244,000 + $92.5n

It could be written as

$1,244,000 + $92.5 n  <  $338,000 + $143 n

After solving it

n> 906,000÷ 50.5

n>17941

And,

$1,244,000 + $92.5 n < 197 n

After solving it

n>$1,244,000 ÷ 104.5

n>11,904

So the highest is 17,941

Therefore the 17,941 units should be produced and sold
