Answer:

The amount of these state income tax refund is included in gross income in 2016 is $1,100

Explanation:

The computation of the income tax refund is shown below:

= Itemized deductions - standard deduction

= $13,700 - $12,600

= $1,100

Since we have to find out the refund amount which would be included in the gross income so we consider the amount of the deductions which is given in the question. The other information which is given in the question is not relevant. Hence, ignored it

The amount recovered would be adjusted to that particular year only it would not be carried forward.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Simple random sampling gives each member in the entire population an equal opportunity to be included in the sample. The technique removes bias in the selection procedure. It applies where a small number would adequately represent the entire population.

The procedure described in this case is a deviation of simple random sampling. It is stratified random sampling.

In stratified random sampling, the population is first divided into subgroups based on shared characteristics. The researcher uses simple random sampling to select representatives of each group in the sample population.  The techniques ensure each group is fairly represented in the research.  

Subdividing vehicles by their make is creating strata or subgroups.

The manager of the bank where you work tells you that the bank has $300 million in deposits and $255 million dollars in loans. I
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The bank is holding $19.5 million in excess reserves.

Explanation:

If the bank has $300 million is deposits and the reserve ratio is 8.5% then the bank needs to have minimum reserves of 8.5% of 300 million so the minimum reserves are 0.085*300 million = 25.5 million

How ever the actual reserves of the bank is the difference between deposits and loans. The deposits are 300 million and loans are 255 million so the actual reserves are 300 million-255 million= $45 million

Excess reserves is the difference between the actual reserves and the minimum reserves so 45 million - 25.5 million = 19.5 million.
