wth. The existing road is now unsafe, and improving it is not an alternative. Alternate new route locations are designated as East and West. The initial investment by government highway agencies will be $3, 950,000 for East and $5, 500,000 for West. Annual highway maintenance costs will be $120,000 for East and 590,000 for the shorter location West. Relevant annual road user costs, considering vehicle operation, time end route, fuel, safety, mileage, and so on, are estimated as $880,000 for East and only $690,000 for West. Assume a 20 year service life and i = 7 %. C

Ira Lisetskai [31]
The budget is $4,240.

There are 164 kittens and 24 puppies.
Let
x = amount spent on each kitten
y =  amount spent on each puppy.

The cost for each puppy is twice a much as that for a kitten. Therefore
y = 2x                  (1)

The available amount is $4,240, therefore
164x + 24y = 4240          (2)

Substitute (1) into (2).
164x + 24(2x) = 4240
212x = 4240
x = $20
y = 2x = $40

Answer: $40 for each puppy.

You think that in 15 years it will cost $214,000 to provide your child with a 4-year collge education. Will you have enough if y
prisoha [69]

Answer:

You will not have enough.

Explanation:

The rate of the investment is compounded, so the value at year 1, will be the value at year 0, increased in a 4%. Then, the value at year 2 will be the value at year 1, increased in other 4%, that's equal to the value at year 0 increased twice at 4%.

So, the formula to calculating the value at year 15 is 75,000*(1.04)^15 = 135,070.63. THen, it will not be enough. You have to invest at least 214,000/1.04^15 = 118,826.20 at year 0, at a rate of 4%.

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

A. A credit to Child Care Fees Earned of $4,500.

Explanation:

The journal entry to record this given transaction is shown below:

Cash A/c Dr $4,500

       To Child Care Fees Earned A/c $4,500

(Being the fees earned is recorded)

Since the payment is received that means cash balance is increased so we debited the cash account and credited the child care fees earned account.

The monthly fee is $9,000 but we have to compute for 15 days, so it would be

= $9,000 ÷ 2

= $4,500

Michelle operates a food truck. Indicate the amount (if any) that she can deduct as an ordinary and necessary business deduction
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A. $80

B. $795

C. $0

Explanation:

Only expenses that can be directly attributed to the business are deductible.

Personal expenses will not be deductible.

A. Here the only deductible amount is the legal fees of $80. The speeding will not be charged to the business because it was as a result of personal negligence. The legal fees affect the business because the speeding related to a business asset.

B. Only the amount paid to reserve a spot will be deductible because it relates to expenses for the business to make profit. The money she spent on her children is a personal expense.

C. There is no deductible here. These activities were of a personal nature and in no way related to the operations of the business of operating the food truck.
