5 0

Since the problem doesn’t give the choices for these questions. I will be giving you the factors that affect the elasticity:

1. Labor costs as percent of total costs – when labor expenses have a high share in total costs then labor demand is more elastic.

2. Easiness and cost of factor substitution – when the firm can substitute rapidly and effortlessly between labor and capital inputs.

3. Price elasticity of demand for the final output produced – if the business is working an extremely competitive market where the final demand of the product is elastic and as a result the demand for labor is more elastic.

Zenon Inc. has the following taxable income: U.S. source income $ 1,900,000 Foreign source income 240,000 Taxable income $ 2,140

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The income tax is $81,600

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to compute the foreign tax income for Zenon Inc assuming the foreign source income does not qualify as FDII

To compute this, we employ a mathematical approach.

Mathematically,

The income paid by Zenon Inc = Foreign credit Tax limitation * Foreign source income/taxable income

We identify the parameters in the equation as follows;

Foreign tax limitation = Taxable income * tax rate

Where the tax rate for the US is 34% or simply 0.34

Foreign tax limitation = 0.34 * 2,140,000 = $727,600

Foreign source income = $240,000

Taxable income = $2,140,000

Income paid = 727,600 * 240,000/2,140,000 = $81,600

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Option D All of the above statements are correct.

Explanation:

The solution of the issue is software integration and making flow of information on timely basis across the company. The recommended solutions given in the question are correct because:

Establishing a lockbox arrangement is similar to having a single company bank account. This means that the company will have a confirmation from the bank that the payment is received by the bank from customers.
The remittance advice sent with payment helps to solve the misunderstanding, assist in recording transaction to keep the system updated and provides resistance to fraudulent practice.
The mailroom personnel who require mailing of trade receivable balance which the customers owe to company and trade payable balance which the company owes to suppliers. This avoids the company paying illegitimate amounts and receiving the amounts which the customers actually should pay to the company.

So all of the statements are correct.
