Geneva needs additional capital to launch her business but does not want to share management responsibility with partners. Neith
Talja [164]

Answer:

The answer is: C) S corporation

Explanation:

Geneva should choose an S Corporation. In my opinion she should do it because corporate income, losses, deductions, and credits are passed through to its shareholders, while it can be managed like a normal corporation.

If she chooses a Limited Liability Partnership she would still have to share management responsibility with her partners and C Corporations are heavily taxed. If she had enough money she could start a sole proprietorship business, but she doesn't have enough money.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

c. $33.33 per housekeeping hour

Explanation:

The housekeeping department's activity rate is how much each housekeeping hour costs.

This question can be solved by a simple rule of three.

27000 hours cost $900000. How much does 1 hour cost?

27,000 hours - $900,000.

1 hour - $x.

27000x = 900000

x = \frac{900000}{27000}

x = 33.33

So the correct answer is:

c. $33.33 per housekeeping hour
