The gaol of a country with a healthy economy is to have _____ equal to zero

1 answer:

6 0

New payoffs after subsidy:

"Ayres Services acquired an asset for $80 million in 2021. The asset is depreciated for financial reporting purposes over four y

Zepler [3.9K]

a. The cumulative temporary book-tax difference for the depreciable asset are as follows:

December 31, 2021 = $60 million

December 31, 2022 = $40 million

December 31, 2023 = $20 million

December 31, 2024 = $0

b. The balance to be reported in the deferred tax liability account are as follows.

December 31, 2021 = $15 million

December 31, 2022 = $10 million

December 31, 2023 = $5 million

December 31, 2024 = $0

Explanation:

Note: See the attached excel file for the calculation of cumulative temporary book-tax difference for the depreciable asset and the balance to be reported in the deferred tax liability account for December 31 of years 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 in bold red color.

In the attached excel file, the following formula are used:

Cumulative Temporary differences at December 31 of the current year = Cumulative Temporary differences at December 31 of the previous year + (Depreciation on the tax return at December 31 of the current year - Depreciation on the income statement at December 31 of the current year)

Balance to be reported in deferred tax liability account at December 31 of the current year = Cumulative Temporary differences at December 31 of the current year * Tax rate

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

(g) Between 0 and -S7.5k because residents can substitute to other products

Explanation:

Data given in the question

Increase in price of typical soda = 10 cents

Total consumed = 150,000 sodas [er day

Dropped quantity = 75,000 sodas

So by considering the above information, the per day compensating variation of the tax varies from 0 and - 7,500

Since the sugar sweetened sodas is treated as a normal goods. Moreover, people can substitute the other goods also if there is an increase in a price of the good

The -7,500 is come from = (-75,000 × 0.10)

The options are as follows

(a) Greater than -$15k because soda is a luxury good with income (b) -$15k because that is the old consumption level times the value of the tax (c) Between -S7.5k and -$15k because soda is a luxury good elasticity > 1 with income elasticity >1 (d) Between -$7.5k arti -$15k because residents can substitute to other products (e) -$7.5k because that is the new consumption level times the value of the tax ()-$7.5k because that is the change in consumption times the value of the tax (g) Between 0 and -S7.5k because residents can substitute to other products (h) Between 0 and -$7.5k because because beverages are typically necessity goods with 6) Nothing because there was no effect on income G) It is impossible to say without knowing consumers' marginal rate of substitution income elasticity less than 1

UNO [17]

Answer: $252

Explanation:

GDP is calculated by summing up the value of final goods and services in a country within a period. This means that intermediate values are not included and this is done to avoid double counting.

The GDP contribution here therefore will be the value of the meals created;

= 50 * 5.04

= $252
