Answer:
The amount of tax on a case of Cola is ;
= Selling price - Producer gain
= 6 - 2
= $4
The burden that falls on consumers is;
= Current selling price - Previous selling price
= 6 - 5
= $1
The burden that falls on the producers is;
= Selling price less consumer tax - Producer gain
= 5 - 2
= $3
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on producers. <u>FALSE. </u>
Whether the tax is on the producer or on the consumer makes no difference because the quantity sold will be the same. The statement is therefore false.
Answer:
the variable cost ratio is 60 % (option d)
Explanation:
The variable cost ratio (VCR) represents the ratio of variable costs to sales. Therefore
VCR = (total variable costs)/(total sales)
since
total variable costs = variable costs * services provided = $21/hour * 12000 hours/year = $252000 /year
total sales = price of service * services provided = $35/hour * 12000 hours/year = $420000 /year
thus
VCR = ($252000 /year) / ($420000 /year) = 0.6 = 60 %
Economics in many cases is an exact science, but usually it is a practical one that has applications. Thus there are some practical goals that need to be answered with the use of economics and an easy to summarize form of them are the five fundamental questions of economics. 3 of the choices above are such fundamental questions; determining the way of production, the receiver of the production as well as the ways in which the economic system can change are of fundamental importance to the science of economics. The other 2 questions are: What products will be produced ? and How can we foster progress?
Choice d is a pretty important question too (that falls somewhat under a) but the fact that it mentions the government specifically makes it less general than the other propositions so it is not a fundamental question.
Answer: $8500
Explanation:
Since the total amount of estimated tax liability for 2018 is $18000 and the tax withholding is $9500$, then the balance tax payable for 2018 will be:
= $18000 - $9500
= $8500
Therefore, the minimum amount of total estimated tax that Randy must pay in 2018 in order to avoid a penalty for underpayment of estimated taxes will be $8500
Answer:
Correct Answer: The least likely question to be included in the ethic test is:
A) What Health-Tech employees will be affected by my actions?
Explanation:
This is because, it does not have a direct implication to the code of conduct expected by the Health-Tech's company when compared with others. <em>For example, seeing a fraud going on in the company, it is expected that the staff should report to the appropriate management staff irrespective of whether the action would affect the staff's friend or not.</em>
