Answer:

D) Both A. and B. are true.

A) The schedule provides no information as to whether Jurisdiction M's tax is horizontally equitable.
B) Jurisdiction M's tax is vertically equitable.

Explanation:

When we are talking about horizontal equity of a tax, we are talking about how the tax base is measured and the ability that taxpayers have to pay the tax. There is nothing here about tax base or taxpayers' ability to pay.

On the other hand, vertical equity deals with the tax rate structure. In this case, the tax rate is progressive, meaning that it increases as the taxpayers' income increases. Progressive taxes are vertically equitable.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Explanation:

The options to the question are:

a. describe the bottom line of the policy changes at the beginning of the memo.

b. include an apology at the end of the memo stating the inconveniences that could be caused due to the new policy.

c. present the rationale for the new policies at the memo's beginning.

d. highlight controversial issues, which could arise after the new policies have been implemented, in the memo.

From the question, we are informed that Rubina is the director of procurement at Baines Corporation and that she plans to send a memo to the employees in her department outlining some changes in the company's personnel policies as she believes that most of the employees will view the changes favorably.

Since she is of the opinion that most of the employees will view the changes favorably, she can describe the bottom line of the policy changes at the beginning of the memo. This is because she believes the memo will get a favourable audience. In a situation whereby she is not sure if it will be favourable, in the begining of the memo, she may have to offer and apology and tell them the rationale behind the memo before going into further details.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Beckman noncontrolling interest in subsidiary income $10,520

Calvin Machine (net of accumulated depreciation) $71,200

Explanation:

To calculate noncontrolling interest in subsidiary's income;

Revenue $65,550

Expenses $39,250 (29,250 + $6,800 + $3,200)

Net Income $26,300

Noncontrolling percentage = 40%

NonControlling Income = $10,520

Depreciation of Machine = $\frac{Fair value of Machine - Book value}{estimated useful life}$

$\frac{78,000 - 10,000}{10 years}$ = 6,800 per annum

Amortization of trade secrets = $\frac{Fair Value Total - Machine value}{Useful life}$

Amortization of trade secrets = $\frac{90,800 - 78,000}{4 years}$

= 3,200

Riley obtains permission from Saga Company to use the firm's game app on Riley's smartphone, tablet, and other mobile device. Bu

77julia77 [94]

Answer:

A License

Explanation:

Riley obtains permission from Saga Company to use the firm's game app on Riley's smartphone, tablet, and other mobile device. But Riley does not obtain ownership rights in the app. This is a license. When any organization gives its rights to another firm under this type of contract, the ownership rights always remain with the parent company and licensee can't have ownership rights in any way, they can use only the name and products of that parent company to the customers, but ownership held with the parent company. For example, when Burger King and Pizza Hut gives the right to make and sell their products all over the world, the ownership rights are always reserved with the Burger King and Pizza Hut.

(a) What amount should be deposited in a fund at the end of each quarter at 7% compounded quarterly so that there will be enough

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

(a) The deposit should be <u>$168.06 </u>quarterly.

(a) The deposit should be <u>$145.32 </u>quarterly.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

An investor needs $11,000 in 19 years.

(a) What amount should be deposited in a fund at the end of each quarter at 7% compounded quarterly so that there will be enough money in the fund?

(b) Find the investors quarterly deposit if the money is deposited at 9.4% compounded quarterly.

The explanations to the answers are now given as follows:

(a) What amount should be deposited in a fund at the end of each quarter at 7% compounded quarterly so that there will be enough money in the fund?

Since the amount should be deposited in a fund at the end of each quarter, the formula for calculating the Future Value (FV) of an Ordinary Annuity is used as follows:

FV = M * {[(1 + r)^n - 1] / r} ................................. (1)

Where,

FV = Future value of the amount needed in 19 years = $11,000

M = Quarterly deposit = ?

r = Quarterly interest rate = 7% / 4 = 0.07 / 4 = 0.0175

n = number of quarters the deposits will be made = 11 * 4 = 44

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M, we have:

11,000 = M * {[(1 + 0.0175)^44 - 1] / 0.0175}

11,000 = M * 65.4531536741798

M = 11,000 / 65.4531536741798

M = $168.06

(b) Find the investors quarterly deposit if the money is deposited at 9.4% compounded quarterly.

We make use of equation (1) in part (a) as follows:

Where,

FV = Future value of the amount needed in 19 years = $11,000

M = Quarterly deposit = ?

r = Quarterly interest rate = 9.4% / 4 = 0.094 / 4 = 0.0235

n = number of quarters the deposits will be made = 11 * 4 = 44

Substituting the values into equation (1) and solve for M, we have:

11,000 = M * {[(1 + 0.0235)^44 - 1] / 0.0235}

11,000 = M * 75.6957891651599

M = 11,000 / 75.6957891651599

M = $145.32
