Answer: $3,500

Explanation:

The American Opportunity Tax Credit is a credit offered by the IRS for educational expenses paid on qualified students in their first 4 years of tertiary education.

The credit offered stands at a 100% of the first $2,000 paid per student. Afterwards this drops to 25% for the next $2,000.

To be able to claim the full credit however, some income conditions must be met. The most relevant to this question is that your Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) should be $80,000 or less if filing singularly or $160,000 or less if jointly signing as a married couple.

That means that Kyle and Alyssa qualified for 100% of this credit.

They get to claim $1,000 on Jane.

For Jill they get to claim the first $2,000 and then 25% of the next $2,000,

= 25% * 2,000

= $500

= 500 + 2,000

= $2,500

They get to claim $2,500 on Jill.

Total of $3,500 for both Jane and Jill.

Answer:

The after-tax cost is $23,940

Explanation:

For computing the after-tax cost, first we have to compute the present value which is shown below:

Present value = Bill payment × marginal tax rate

                       = $38,000 × 37%

                       = $14,060

So, after tax value would equal to

= Bill payment or Pre tax value - Present value

= $38,000 - $14,060

= $23,940

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1) $0.27 per loaf of bread

2) $0.28 per loaf of bread

3) 3.7%

Explanation:

current production = 1,800 loaves per month

current labor expense = $8 per hour

constant utility cost = $800

ingredients per loaf = $0.40

multi-factor productivity = total output / (labor + materials + overhead)

current multi-factor productivity = 1,800 loaves / ($5,120 + $800 + $720) = $0.27 per loaf of bread

new output level = 1,800 x 1.35 = 2,430 loaves

new multi-factor productivity = 2,430 loaves / ($6,912 + $800 + $972) = $0.28 per loaf of bread

% increase = ($0.28 - $0.27) / $0.27 = 3.7%

Exercise 5-8 Equivalent Units; Cost per Equivalent Unit; Assigning Costs to Units-Weighted-Average Method [LO5-2, LO5-3, LO5-4]
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

1. Calculate the first production department's equivalent units of production for materials and conversion for May.

  • materials = 275,000 + 50,000 = 325,000
  • conversion = 275,000 + 12,500 = 287,500

2. Compute the first production department's cost per equivalent unit for materials and conversion for May.

  • materials = $169,000 / 325,000 = $0.52
  • conversion = $253,000 / 287,500 = $0.88

3. Compute the first production department's cost of ending work in process inventory for materials, conversion, and in total for May.

  • materials = 50,000 x $0.52 = $26,000
  • conversion = 12,500 x $0.88 = $11,000
  • total = $37,000

4. Compute the first production department's cost of the units transferred to the next production department for materials, conversion, and in total for May.

  • materials = 275,000 x $0.52 = $143,000
  • conversion = 275,000 x $0.88 = $242,000
  • total = $385,000

Explanation:

Beginning WIP 70,000 units

materials $56,100

conversion $16,400

Ending WIP 50,000 units

100% completed for materials (50,000 EU)

25% completed for conversion (12,500 EU)

units started 255,000

total units transferred out 275,000

materials cost added during the period = $112,900

conversion cost added during the period = $236,600
