Answer: 16 Banana's or 8 Apples

Explanation:

Budget constrain is a mathematical expression which shows us the quantity of goods that can be purchases at given prices and income. Since, income of the consumer is limited, he must allocate his consumption in a way that he can buy maximum goods at the given prices.

The budget constrain faced by the person is

1.50*Q_{A} + 0.75*Q_{B} \leq 12

If the person spends all his income on Apple's, he buys

\frac{12}{1.50}

= 8 Apples

If the person spends all his income on Banana's, he buys

\frac{12}{0.75}

= 16 Banana's

You are given the following information for Sookie's Cookies Co.: sales = $51,200; costs = $39,600; addition to retained earning
ipn [44]

Answer:

The depreciation expense for the company is $4615.

Explanation:

profit before depreciation and tax = (sales - cost) - interest expense

= ($51,200  - $39,600)  - $1,560  

= $10040

Addition to retained earnings = $2,320

dividends paid = $935

tax rate = 40 percent.

Addition to retained earnings = [(Profit before depreciation and tax - depreciation expense ) * (1- Tax)] - dividend paid

$2320 = [($10040 - depreciation expense)* (1 - 0.40)] - 935

$3255 = ($10040 - depreciation expense)* 0.60

$5425 = $10040 - depreciation expense

Depreciation expense = 10040 - 5425

                                      = $4615

Therefore, The depreciation expense for the company is $4615.
