Answer:
D. -4/5
Explanation:
Given that
Wage rate = $20 per hour
Cost of capital = $25 per hour
Recall that,
Slope of isocost = -(w/r)
Where,
W = wage rate
r = rental cost of capital.
Thus,
Slope of isocost curve
= -(20/25)
= -0.8 or -4/5
Note that, the negative of the ratio is the price of the two inputs. Also isocost is a line showing the various combinations of inputs which cost the same amount.
Answer:
The rate of growth of their dividend is 6.30%.
Explanation:
This problem requires us to calculate the growth rate at which the dividend will grow. The market value of share and market rate of return is also given in the problem. So we can easily calculate it using market valuation formula.
MV = D(1+G%)/ke
39.86 = 1.2 (1+G%)/(9.5%-G%)
G = 6.30%
The last one will be the answer
Answer:
C) None of the $5,000 should be included in gross income.
Explanation:
During 2016, Sarah's itemized deductions (other than the stolen silverware) were only $2,000. If Sarah wanted to deduct the stolen silverware, she could have taken a casualty loss = $6,000 - $100 - $3,000 = $2,900. Her total itemized deductions would equal $2,000 + $2,900 = $4,900.
But during that year, Sarah should have opted for a standard deduction of $6,300 which is higher than her itemized deductions. That means that Sarah didn't claim any deduction for her silverware, so any money received from the insurance company should not be included in her gross income.
