Answer:
$284,000
Explanation:
Movements in the retained earnings account are as a result of the payment of dividend and the addition of the income or loss for the year.
Given that
Baxter generated revenues = $40,000
incurred expenses = $24,000
purchased equipment = $10,000 and
paid dividends = $4,000
Net income/(loss) = $40,000 - $24,000
= $16,000
Retained Earnings at September 30, 2012
= $272,000 + $16,000 - $4,000
= $284,000
Answer:
A Subjective performance evaluation is more feasible when evaluating jobs that cannot easily be evaluated by numbers, in finding problems such as ethical errors that objective evaluation cannot identify and in identifying the rate of achievement of work goals that cannot be recorded in an objective evaluation.
Explanation:
Though Objective evaluation has been the more favored form of evaluation for valid reasons, there are still situations where subjective performance evaluation does a better job in the workplace.
Some jobs for example, the job of an attorney, cannot easily be objectively evaluated. In this situation, it falls on the employer to evaluate the performance of the employee by using measurements like team play, professionalism and client service.
In objective analysis, some ethical approaches are overlooked and the achievement of the set goal is the major criterion for ratings. This affords employees the opportunity to use unethical means to achieve set targets and the objective performance evaluation skips it, leaving them safe and with high ratings. In subjective performance ratings however, the employer having the power to rate employers, could expose these unethical behaviors faster and actions, taken on them.
In the workplace, certain goals are set in overall goals, as a method to achieving the overall set target. In an objective performance rating, an employee could bypass these and still appear to have achieved the overall goal. An objective evaluation will miss this but a subjective evaluation could pick this out and make rating each employee based on these soft goals and overall goal achievable.
Answer:
The effective rate of protection for the U.S. steel industry is approximately 17.5%
Explanation:
Mathematically, the effective rate of protection is calculated as follows;
e = (n-ab)/(1-a)
where n is the nominal tariff rate on the final product , a is the ratio of the value of the imported input to the value of the finished product and b is the nominal tariff rate on the imported input
Mathematically;
a = value of iron ore/value of steel = 100,00/500,000 = 1/5 = 0.2
From the question, we can see that nominal tariff rate for steel n = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15
The nominal rate for iron ore b = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05
So we substitute all of these into the equation of e above
e = {0.15-0.2(0.05)}/(1-0.2) = (0.15-0.01)/0.8 = 0.14/0.8 = 0.175 which is same as 17.5%
Answer:
9,315
Explanation:
The 83(b) election of the IRC which allows the employe of restricted stock to pay taxes on the fair market value at the time were granted.
It applies when the stocks are subject to vesting
The 83(b) election becomes useful when the employee has confidence that market value will increase and thus, saving taxes in the future.
If the market price decrease over the years or the company files for bankrupcy, the taxpersons will have pay income taxes for a worthless amount.
Also, if he leaves the company before esting the shares, it would had pay taxes for shares it won't receive.
So, resuming: under election 83(b) we use granted time value
1,035 x 9 = 9,315
