Suppose the spouse of the primary earner in the household is considering joining the labor force. The spouse currently cares for

two children and, if employed, would earn $20 per hour for 40 hours per week. The cost of child care would be $10 per hour for 50 (not 40) hours per week. Assume that the marginal tax rate on work is 50%. Assume that child care is tax deductible and that child care at home is NOT imputed and taxed. What is the after-tax, after-child-care addition to family income of the spouse working each week?

Answer: -$100

Explanation:

Assuming that that child care is tax deductible and that child care at home is NOT imputed and taxed then we shall tax the earnings and deduct child care from it.

The couple makes $20 per week per 40 hour week.

= 20 * 40

= $800

Marginal tax rate is 50% so,

= 800 * 50%

= $400

After tax addition is $400

Childcare is $10 per hour for 50 (not 40) hours per week so,

= 10 * 50

= $500

After-Child-Care Contribution is,

= 400 - 500

= -$100

The after-tax, after-child-care addition to family income of the spouse working each week is -$100

Presented below are two independent situations.
rewona [7]

Answer: a)Interest expense for Year 2020=$46, 977.50 b) see explanation column

Explanation:

a) Amount of Note payable =  $550,000

Present Value  factor for 3 years at 12%

= PV = 1/(1+r) ^n  

1/ (1+ 12%)^3 =(0.892857143)^ 3 =  0.71178

Present value of Note for land at 2020 = $550,000  x  0.71176 = $391, 479

.136

Interest expense for Year 2020= $391, 479.136  x  12%= $46, 977.50

b) Face value of note = $5,000,000

Present value factor for 4 years at 10 % =

= PV = 1/(1+r) ^n  

1/ (1+ 10%)^4 =(0.909090909)^ 4 =  0.68301345

Present value of the note = $5,000,000 x 0.68301345= $3,415,067.28

Discount on note payable =$5,000,000 -$3,415,067.28 =$1,584,932.72

Journal to record amount of interest to report for 2020

Date   Account                        Debit                      Credit

Jan 2020   Cash                  $5,000,000

Discount on notes payable                             $1,584,932.72  

Notes payable                         $5,000,000

Evaluating your payoffs as gains or losses relative to an arbitrary baseline distorts your decisions and is a problem associated
7nadin3 [17]

The study of an agent's or individual's decisions is known as decision theory. The official decision-making process concludes with evaluation. Evaluating the consequences may assist the decision-maker in learning lessons that will help her make better decisions in the future.

  • Loss aversion is the correct answer because the general notion of the "loss-aversion" theory is that if an individual is provided with two equal alternatives, one of which is presented in terms of prospective profits and the other in terms of potential losses, the former option will be chosen.

  • Loss aversion is a cognitive bias or psychological phenomenon that explains why the agony of losing is twice as powerful psychologically as the pleasure of winning.

Therefore, representativeness, cognitive bias, and overconfidence are not factors relative to an arbitrary decision distortion. So, Loss aversion is the correct response to the question.
