Answer:

A. $1,300 "for AGI.

Explanation:

The computation of the deductible amount is shown below:

= Air fare to repair investment rental property + 50% × (Meals + tickets to a football game with hospital administrators)

= $1,000 + 50% × ($500 + $100)

= $1,000 + $300

= $1,300

For meals and tickets, 50% deduction is applicable whereas for the air fair full deduction is applicable

And, for investment in seminar no deduction is allowed

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

D. Interpretation: The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00

zeros: x = 3.586 and x = 6.414

Explanation:

We have been given the following daily profit function;

y=-6(x-5)^{2}+12

where y is the profit (in hundreds of  dollars) of a taco food truck

and x the price of a taco (in dollars)

The zeros of this profit function can be obtained by solving for x in the following equation;

0=-6(x-5)^{2}+12

These will simply be the x-intercepts of the profit function. That is the points where the profit function crosses or intersects the x-axis.

Therefore, an interpretation of the zeros of this function would be;

The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00

These zeros can be evaluated graphically. We first obtain the graph of the profit function as shown in the attachment below;

We then determine the x values where the graph crosses the x-axis. These values will represent the zeros of our profit function. From the graph, these points are;

x = 3.586 and x = 6.414

Amanda [17]
Sum of the year's digits is 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 +1 = 15 years. 
Depreciation base: 32,000 - 2,000 = 30,000
The depreciation applied in any year is the depreciation base times (number of years remaining divided by 15). The first year has the highest depreciation, and the fifth year has the lowest. 
Depreciation:
1st Year: Dep Base x 5/15
2nd Year: Dep Base x 4/15
3rd Year: Dep Base x 3/15
4th Year: Dep Base x 2/15 = 30,000 x 2/15 = 4,000
5th Year: Dep Base x 1/15

jeka94

Answer:

19.48 days

Explanation:

Calculation to determine How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year

First step is to determine the receivables turnover for the company using this formula

Receivables turnover = Credit sales / Receivables

Let plug in the formula

Receivables turnover = $6,842,109 / $365,061

Receivables turnover = 18.74 times

Now let determine l the day’s sales in receivables using this formula

Days’ sales in receivables = 365 days / Receivables turnover

Let plug in the formula

Days’ sales in receivables = 365 days / 18.74

Days’ sales in receivables = 19.48 days

Therefore How long did it take on average for credit customers to pay off their accounts during the past year is 19.48 days
