Answer:

Government should tax consumers of sugary drinks, rather than sellers.

Explanation:

If government levies tax on sellers; Sellers might share the tax burden wholly, partially or none with the buyers.

Such tax burden share depends on inelasticities of demand & supply - if demand is more inelastic, more burden is on buyers & if supply is more inelastic, more burden is on sellers.

So in case : demand is relatively more elastic & supply more inelastic, more tax burden will be borne by sellers. Hence, despite of tax - there will be less or no change (rise) in buyer's price & therefore it won't be effectively reducing quantity of sugar drinks consumed

If the tax is on buyers, it will directly effect their demand & consumption of sugary drinks.

Answer:

The impact of the tax will be the same regardless of who pays the tax

Explanation:

Prices will adjust so that the impact on consumers and producers will be the same regardless of who officially pays the tax.

Answer:

A- Financial leverage

Explanation:

The use of debt is called FINANCIAL LEVERAGE because it involve the use of debt or borrowed money rather than equity when an asset is purchased with the hope that the profit gain after deducting tax from the equity holder transaction will be higher than the borrowing cost.

Financial leverage is based on the used of borrowed money or debt to acquire an additional assets which will cause the returns on the owner's cash investment to be amplified.

The return on equity is increased through leverage leading to the excess amount of the financial leverage to increases the risk of failure, since it will becomes more difficult to repay back the debt or borrowed money.

Financial leverage is measured as the ratio of total debt to total assets meaning the greater the amount of debt , the greater the financial leverage.

Answer:

A. financial leverage.

Explanation:

Financial leverage refers to the use of debt in order to buy more assets. This is measured by comparing the ratio of total debt to total assets. This means that, as the proportion of debt to assets increases, so does the amount of financial leverage. As a very large amount of debt can be hard to pay, an excessive amount of financial leverage can greatly increase the risk of failure.

Explanation:

The four different approaches for calculating operating cash flows are given as follows:

1.Operating cash flow=Earning before tax+ Depreciation expense – Tax expense

=($124,000-$58,000-$12,700)+$12,700-[($124,000-$58,000-$12,700)*34%]

=$53,300+$12,700-$18,122

=$47,878

2.Operating cash flow=Sales-expenses other than depreciation-Tax expense

=$124,000-$58,000-[($124,000-$58,000-$12,700)*34%]

=$124,000-$58,000-$18,122

=$47,878

3.Operating cash flow=(Sales-expenses other than depreciation)*(1-tax rate)+tax rate*depreciation

=($124,000-$58,000)*(1-0.34)+0.34*$12,700

=$43,560+$4,318

=$47,878

4.Operating cash flow=Net income+depreciation

=Sales-costs-depreciation-tax expense+depreciation

=$124,000-$58,000-$12,700-$18,122+$12,700

=$47,878

The question is incomplete, the option include:

Explanation:

1. In 2019 the number of finished units with internal faults = $400,000 completed units * 0.05 = $20,000.

2. In 2020 the number of finished units with internal faults = $20,000* (1 -0.1) = $18,000.

3. In 2020, the projected cost of internal failure= $18,000 * $80= $1,440,000;

4. In 2019 the expense of internal failure= $20,000 * $80 = $1,600,000.

5. Projected shift in the cost of internal failure = $1,600,000 - $1,440,000 = decrease of $160,000

The projection of internal failure costs is calculated by comparing the current costs at a 5% failure rate with the costs after a reduction of the failure rate to 4.5% due to new inspection equipment.

The question concerns the projection of internal failure costs for Verizon Manufacturing Company after implementing recommendations from Quality-is-Free Consultants, Inc. To calculate the change in internal failure costs, first identify the current internal failure rate and cost. With a failure rate of 5% and an average internal failure cost of $80 per unit, the current internal failure costs can be calculated. If the implementation of the new inspection equipment reduces this rate by 10%, the new failure rate would be 4.5%. The expected change in total internal failure costs is thus the difference between the initial total internal failure costs and the new projected costs after implementing recommendations.

Answer:

A. increase

B. decrease

C. no change

D. no change

Explanation:

The long-run aggregate supply (LRAS) curve is the curve used to show how aggregate supply varies with changes in demand in the long run.

Let me explain each of the choices one after the other;

A. The mandatory retirement age in Wonkaland is abolished; this leads to an increase in long run supply because more people will be in the workforce, and more workers mean more production and more supply.

B. Wonkaland's main export is candy. Candy from this country increases in popularity as consumers all over the world want to buy Wonkalandian candy;  an increase in demand from all over the world will cause number of supply to drop long term, because, lesser number of products will be distributed among a larger number of people.

C. Since candy from Wonkaland has become an international sensation, factories in Wonkaland double the number of candy making machines; initially as described in B above, the supply decreases, but if number of candy making machines are doubled, the supply that has decrease begins to rise again until it reaches its original point, hence causing no chance in the LRAS, because it s assumed that the new machines are used to satisfy the external demand.

D.The top candy companies in Wonkaland chose to relocate their means of production to other countries around the world; in the case of relocation, there will be no change in overall supply because the change is only in location and not in production capabilities, but locally, the supply might decrease in the place where they relocated from.

Answer:

The correct answer is "Both machining cost would be allocated to Assembly and maintenance cost would be allocate"

Explanation:

Under direct technique for designation, the expenses of administration divisions,  

- are not distributed to another help office, and  

- are distributed straightforwardly to the various offices.  

In view of over, the cost distribution that WOULD NOT OCCUR under direct strategy is  

Choice #4: Both machining cost would be designated to Assembly and support cost would be apportioned to Human Resources.  

This is on the grounds that:-  

- Machining cost would not be assigned to Assembly office as both are creation divisions.  

- Maintenance cost would not be apportioned to Humar asset as both are administration divisions.

To find the maximum APR for a loan of $29,800 to be repaid in 78 monthly installments of $510, you can use an APR calculator. However, the actual APR will depend on specific loan terms like whether the loan is compounded monthly or annually.

In this case, you are basically looking for the Annual Percentage Rate (APR) for a loan of $29,800 that you want to repay in 78 monthly installments of $510 each. Unfortunately, without additional information, such as whether the loan is compounded monthly or annually, it's impossible to provide a specific APR. However, you can use an APR calculator, which are readily available online, to find the highest APR you could afford given the specified loan amount, loan term, and monthly payment. Just remember that the lower the APR, the less you'll pay in interest over the life of the loan.

The highest APR that you could afford to make the $510 monthly payment over 78 months for a $29,800 loan is approximately 9.5%.

To find the highest Annual Percentage Rate (APR) that you could afford for a motorcycle loan, given that you can pay $510 per month over a 78-month loan term, we can use the formula for calculating monthly loan payments:

[tex]\[ P = \frac{r \times PV}{1 - (1 + r)^{-n}} \][/tex]

Where:

- ( P ) is the monthly payment ($510 in this case).

- ( r ) is the monthly interest rate (APR divided by 12 months).

- ( PV ) is the present value or loan amount ($29,800 in this case).

- ( n ) is the number of months (78 months in this case).

We want to find the highest APR, which means finding the highest monthly interest rate ( r ) that allows us to make the $510 monthly payment over 78 months. We can solve this equation for \( r \) using numerical methods like trial and error or using financial calculators or spreadsheets.

Let's set up the equation and solve for ( r ):

[tex]\[ 510 = \frac{r \times 29800}{1 - (1 + r)^{-78}} \][/tex]

Using numerical methods, we can find that the highest APR that you could afford to make the $510 monthly payment over 78 months for a $29,800 loan is approximately 9.5%.

Answer:

a.  82%

Explanation:

From the question, the R-squared of 0.81871, or 82% approximately reveals the level of variability in Dealer List Prices that is explained by Dealer Invoice prices.

In econometric and statistical analysis, R-squared statistic shows the percentage of variation or variability in the dependent variable that is explained by or accounted for by the explanatory variables in a model. Thus, if the explanatory power of the model is high (e.g. 80%), it implies that the included explanatory variables are good predictors of the dependent variable.

In this question, Dealer List Prices which is the dependent variable is therefore explained by 82% by Dealer Invoice prices which is the explanatory or independent variable.  

The 82% which is high also shows that Dealer Invoice prices are good predictors of Dealer List Prices.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": voidable.

Explanation:

Voidable contracts are those that cannot be enforced because one or the two parties involved are not legally eligible to go on in such an agreement. Reasons to void a contract include but are not limited to failure to disclose material facts, legal incapacity to enter a contract or inconsistent contractual terms.

Thus, Bob's contract to purchase a car is voidable since he is legally incapable of signing agreements due to his age (17 years old).

Answer:

Explanation:

a. A temporary increase in government purchases would result in a  reduction in savings, which would, in turn, lead to the implementation of higher taxes by the government so as to match prices and wages.

This would: make output to remain unchanged, real interest to increase and current price level to increase as well.

b. A reduction in expected inflation would lead to an increment in the demand for real money, as people do not expect inflation to increase for a while. Thus, more demand creates a reduction in the price level. Everything else remains unchanged. This would: make output remain unchanged, real interest remain unchanged and the current price level to decrease.

C. A temporary increase in labor supply would make more people have jobs and therefore more people can save. If more people save the interest rates are liable to decrease therefore money demand will increase. This would: make output to increase, real interest to decline and current price level to decrease.

d. An increase in the interest rate paid on money will lead to a higher demand for money. With an unchanged nominal money supply and higher money demand, the price would decline but everything remains unchanged. This would make: output remain unchanged, real interest remains unchanged and the current price level decrease.

Answer:

$85,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Shares sold = 50,000 shares of $3 par common stock for $5

Buys back = 10% of its common shares outstanding for $7 per share

Total equity on December 31 = $300,000

Balance in stockholder's equity without retained earnings:

= Beginning balance in stockholder's equity + Increase in stockholder's equity - Decrease in stockholder's equity

= $0 + (50,000 × $5) - (50,000 × 10% × $7)

= $250,000 - $35,000

= $215,000

Retained earnings on December 31:

= Total equity at December 31 - Balance in stockholder's equity without retained earnings

= $300,000 - $215,000

= $85,000

Answer:

$2,500 from AGI

Explanation:

Given:

Adjusted Gross income = $40,000

Amount of interest pay = $3,800

According to the federal law of deduction from income tax, passed out students can take a deduction from their annual AGI payment up to $2,500, but to avail, this deduction students income must be under in specified range.

Modified Adjusted Gross income under this law must be less than $80,000.

Final answer:

The amount and classification of Leslie's student loan interest education deduction depends on her modified AGI. If her modified AGI is $40,000 or less, she can claim a deduction for up to $2,500 of student loan interest paid during the year.

Explanation:

The amount and classification of Leslie's student loan interest education deduction would depend on her modified AGI. If her modified AGI is $40,000 or less, she can claim a deduction for up to $2,500 of student loan interest paid during the year. However, the deduction is reduced if her modified AGI is between $40,000 and $70,000, and completely phased out if her modified AGI is $70,000 or more.

In this case, since Leslie's modified AGI is $40,000, she would be eligible to claim the full deduction of $3,800, as her modified AGI is below the phase-out threshold. This deduction can help reduce her taxable income and potentially lower her tax liability.

Explanation:

Leasing a new office requires an immediate payment of $ 24,000 (in year 0), plus $ 24,000 per year at the end of each of the next 10 years, which would be a total of $ 240,000 in 10 years, with a fee Discount of 14 percent, would be 240,000 x 0.14 = $ 33,600 in those 10 years, which would be $ 3,360 annually, which subtracted from the $ 24,000 annually would be a total of: $ 20,640.

The answer is: $ 20,640 every year.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. an oligopoly.  

Explanation:

An oligopoly is a market structure where there are few relevant competitors and each of them has some capacity to influence the price and amount of equilibrium.

In the oligopoly, competitors have market power, but at a lower level than in the case of monopoly. This, since, instead of having only one bidder, there is a small group of companies.

This means that although each of the companies has an influence on the market price and quantity (they do not take it as given), the freedom to choose the level of these variables is limited by the existence of other competing firms. A special case of oligopoly is the duopoly, where there are only two bidders.

Answer: b. An oligopoly

Explanation: An oligopoly is an economic condition in which a small number of sellers exert control over the market of a commodity. The firms in an oligopoly collude, to either restrict output or fix prices and sometimes both, in order to achieve above normal market returns, higher than that of a competitive market. None of the firms however can keep the others from having significant influence. Now firms in an oligopoly set prices of goods and services collectively or under the leadership of one firm. They do not take prices from the market. Thus, if one automobile company raises the prices of its trucks by a certain amount, other automobile companies in the industry are likely to follow by raising prices by a similar amount.

Answer:

Operating Income= $110,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Robusta Coffee Importers sold 6,000 units in October at a sales price of $35 per unit. The variable cost is $ 15 per unit. The monthly fixed costs are $10,000.

The operating income is the difference between the contribution margin and the fixed costs:

Contribution margin= selling price - unitary variable cost

Operating income= Total contribution margin - fixed costs

OI= 6,000*(35 - 15) - 10,000= $110,000

Operating income earned in October is $110,000, calculated as total revenue minus total variable costs and fixed costs.

To calculate the operating income earned in October, we need to determine the total revenue and the total expenses.

Step 1:

Calculate total revenue:

Total revenue = Sales price per unit * Number of units sold

Total revenue = $35/unit * 6,000 units = $210,000

Step 2:

Calculate total variable costs:

Total variable costs = Variable cost per unit * Number of units sold

Total variable costs = $15/unit * 6,000 units = $90,000

Step 3:

Calculate total fixed costs:

Total fixed costs = $10,000

Step 4:

Calculate operating income:

Operating income = Total revenue - Total variable costs - Total fixed costs

Operating income = $210,000 - $90,000 - $10,000

Operating income = $110,000

Therefore, the operating income earned in October is $110,000.

b. Cost of setup labor.  

B. Cost of setup Labor: It includes salaries that are been paid to all workers working as full time and part time  

While the number of wages and the number of employees wage requirements vary by cost controls, their industries and the center on achievment of their best results with possible lower labour costs.

As any  leader of the company knows the things related to it that, the most important and biggest cost of doing any sort of  business is often labor. Cost of labor setup, which may account for as 70% of almost total business costs which include wages of the employees,their benefits, payroll and all other taxes related to them.  

Any HR professionals spend only  their 15% of time managing the labor costs. Engaging new employees, hiring new and efficient workers and developing them over their course of their career are always top of mind for HR professionals.

So, the most important point here is the cost labors setup.
