Answer:

Two Different MMMFs

The tax rate to produce identical yields is 16.67%

Explanation:

For Fund A & B to produce identical yields:

Fund's A yield of 5% must equal Fund B's 6% (1 - 0.28).

Therefore, 5% = 6% (1 - tax rate)

Let (1 - tax rate) be x.

That is 0.05 = 0.06x

x = 0.05/0.06 = 0.8333

Therefore, (1 - tax rate) = 0.8333

Tax rate = 1 - 0.8333

Tax rate = 0.1667

<u>Check: if 5% = 6% (1 - tax rate)</u>

0.05 = 0.06 (1 - 0.1667)

0.05 = 0.049998

0.05 = 0.05

The above calculation shows that if Fund B is taxed at 16.67% instead of 28%, it would have identical yields with Fund A.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

$33,000

To avoid penalties, if a taxpayer owes $1,000 or more in tax payments beyond withholdings, such taxpayer will need to have paid in for taxes the lesser of:  90% of the current year's tax ($50,000 x 90%) = $45,000, or  100% of the previous year's tax ($30,000 x 100%) = $30,000  

However, if the taxpayer had adjusted gross income in excess of $150,000 in the prior year, 110% of the prior year's tax liability is used to compute the safe harbor for estimated payments. (Previous year's tax $30,000 x 110% = $33,000).

Ups devices typically have capacities that may run up to __________ va.
Brut [27]
<span>Ups devices typically have capacities that may run up to  1000 va.

UPS (uninterrupted power supply) is designed so an electrical equipment could still provide an emergency source of power in case the main power input fails to do so. In order to fulfill this function, a UPS device requires a pretty high voltage capacity.</span>

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

(a) Current ratio = 2.88 : 1

(b) Acid test ratio = 2.03 : 1

(c) Accounts receivable turnover = 4.94 times

(d) Inventory turnover = 6.65 times

(e) Profit margin = 13.12%

(f) Asset turnover = 0.95 times

(g) Return on assets = 12.43%

(h) Return on common stockholders' equity = 14.62%

(i) Debt to assets ratio = 11.17%

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. See the attached pdf file for the complete question.

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

a. Current ratio

Current assets = Cash + Accounts receivable (net) + Inventory = $4,100 + $20,900 + $10,400 =

Current liabilities = Accounts payable = $12,300

Current ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities = $35,400 / $12,300 = 2.88 : 1

b. Acid test ratio

Acid test ratio = (Current assets – Inventory) / Current liabilities = ($35,400 - $10,400) / $12,300 = 2.03 : 1

(c) Accounts receivable turnover.

Net sales = $109,000

Average accounts receivable = (20,900 + 23,200) / 2 = $22,050

Accounts receivable turnover = Net sales / Average accounts receivable = $109,000 / $22,050 = 4.94 times

(d) Inventory turnover.

Cost of goods sold = $59,500

Average inventory = (10,400 + 7,500) / 2 = $8,950

Inventory turnover = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory = $59,500 / $8,950 = 6.65 times

(e) Profit margin.

Net income = $14,300

Net sales = $109,000

Profit margin = Net income / Net sales = $14,300 / $109,000 = 0.1312, or 13.12%

(f) Asset turnover.

Net sales = $109,000

Average total assets = ($110,100 + $119,900) / 2 = $115,000

Asset turnover = Net sales / Average total assets = $109,000 / $115,000 = 0.95 times

(g) Return on assets.

Net income = $14,300

Average total assets = ($110,100 + $119,900) / 2 = $115,000

Return on assets = Net income / Average total assets = $14,300 / $115,000 = 0.1243, or 12.43%

(h) Return on common stockholders' equity

Net income = $14,300

Common stockholders' equity = Common stock + Retained earnings = $74,500 + $23,300 = $97,800

Return on common stockholders' equity = Net income / Common stockholders' equity = $14,300 / $97,800 = 0.1462 = 14.62%

(i) Debt to assets ratio

Total liabilities = Accounts payable = $12,300

Total assets = $110,100

Debt to assets ratio = Total liabilities / Total assets = $12,300 / $110,100 = 0.1117, or 11.17%

Clybourne Cycle Shop has two retail departments referred to as Cycles and Clothing. Utility expense for a recent month totaled $
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

A) $1,200

Explanation:

The computation of the allocated amount to the clothing department is shown below:

= Total utility expense × Clothing Department square feet ÷ Total square feet

where,

Total square feet would be

= Clothing Department square feet + Cycles department square feet

= 600 + 900

= 1,500

And, the other items values would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $2,000 × 900 ÷ 1,500

= $1,200

What does compounding interest mean??
ivolga24 [154]
Compounding interest is interest on top of interest.

For example, say you put 100 bucks in the bank.
You get 10% interest compounded daily on that 100 bucks.

That means that you get 10% interest not only on those 100 bucks, but all the money you make after.

So your interest would go from 10% on 100 bucks, to 10% on 110 bucks and so forth.

I hope this helps and please press that ❤ under my reply, it really helps!
