Answer:

Hank

a. After-tax income if bill is sent in December

= $30,000 * 0.68 (1 - 0.32) = $20,400

Return on investment of $20,400 * 1.01% = $20,604

b. if bill is sent in January

= $30,000 * 0.65 (1 - 0.35) = $19,500

c. Hank should send the bill in December.

d. with marginal tax rate = 24% next year, after-tax income

= $30,000 * 0.76 (1 - 0.24) = $22,800

e. He should send his bill in January.

Explanation:

a) Data:

Value of legal services for a client = $30,000

Marginal tax rate = 32% this year and 35% or 24% next year

After-tax rate of return = 12%

b) The after-tax income represents the amount of Hank's revenue that remains after tax has been deducted or paid.  It is what belongs to Hank after the taxman has taken his cut.

kap26 [50]

Answer:

A. Multifactor productivity

Original Value of output 2500 un. x $200/un. = $500,000 Value of input 2500 un x $120/un. = $300,000 Multi-factor productivity $500,000/$300,000 = 1.67 Overtime Value of output 4000 un. x $200/un. = $800,000 Value of input 4000 un. x $144/un. = $576,000 Multi-factor productivity $800,000/$576,000 = 1.39 Multi-factor productivity (1.67 – 1.39) / 1.67 = 16.8% decrease

B. LABOR PRODUCTIVITY

Original Value of output 2500 un. x $200/un. = $500,000 Input = (100 people x 40 hr/person) = 4000 hours Labor productivity $500,000/4000 hr = $125/hr Overtime Value of output 4000 un. x $200/un. = $800,000 Input = (100 people x 72 hr/person) = 7200 hours Labor productivity $800,000/7200 hr = $111/hr Labor productivity ($125/hr – $111/hr) / $125/hr = 11.1% decrease

C.GROSS PROFITS

Original $500,000 - $300,000 = $200,000 Overtime $800,000 - $576,000 = $224,000

$24,000 increase

List and explain ten factors to consider in preparing family income​
aniked [119]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>1. Availability of Money:</em>

<em>The expenditure of a family depends upon the availability of money or total income of the family. It can afford to spend under various needs. In lower income group, families expenditure is more on food. Higher income group families spend more on recreation, education and luxuries etc.</em>

<em>2. The size and the composition of the family:</em>

<em>Expenditure depends upon the size and composition of the family. The size of the family means the number of adults and children. The more the mouths to eat the expenditure is more on food, clothing and shelter. With the growth of children, more will be spent on education and clothing. More will be spent towards transportation when the members go out of the house for work or study.</em>

<em>Composition of the family means the number of adults and children in the family. It also includes the number of males, females and old persons. For old persons, extra expenditure will be incurred towards health and medical expenses.</em>

<em>3. Stages of family life cycle:</em>

<em>Family life cycle plays an important role in spending money. At the beginning stage, most part of the family income is spent towards the establishment expenditure as a newly married couple starts their family life. In the expanding stage families need money for the children, their food, dress, education etc. Some families in the expanding stage spend more on purchasing durable household goods, furniture etc. In the contracting stage major expenditure is on wedding celebration of their children. During this stage, the family income is gradually reduced. So the expenditure should be cut short.</em>

<em>4. Occupation of the family members:</em>

<em>Sometimes expenditure of the family depends upon the occupation of the family members. In certain jobs, there are special benefits like free quarters, educational facilities for children, health and medical allowance, travelling allowance etc.</em>

<em>5. The needs and objectives of the family:</em>

<em>Expenditure will be done according to the needs and objectives of the family. For example, a family where young children are there, more will be spent for nutritious foods. Old people require health and medical expenses. Working women spend money for the servants as they do not find time to do the household work.</em>

<em>6. Resources:</em>

<em>Both human and material resources can make significant changes in the pattern of expenditure of a family. The abilities, skill, knowledge, interest, attitude and habits of the members of the family can be utilized for various purposes as supplementary income.</em>

<em>7. Locality of the family:</em>

<em>In rural areas more will be spent on food. But in urban areas the expenditure is more on education, recreation, transportation, accommodation etc.</em>

<em>8. Socio-economic status of the family:</em>

<em>The socio-economic status of the family is determined by its income, education level and occupation of the members. The higher the socio-economic status the expenditure will be more on interior decoration, higher education, club membership, accommodation, recreation etc. The total expenditure depends on the standard of living the family maintains.</em>

<em>9. Social and religious traditions:</em>

<em>Some families accept old and traditional values. So they spend more on marriages and religious festival.</em>

<em>10. Personal choice:</em>

<em>Expenditure depends upon the personal choice. For example, one person may have a liking for expensive perfumes and jewellery while another may have simple tastes. Expenditure is also affected by the measures taken in the family to make provision for the future like house building, higher education of children etc. The home-maker will be able to manage with her income by cutting out unnecessary and extravagant expenditure. “One must cut one’s coat according to his cloth.”</em>

<em />

<em>This saying is rightly proved in home management. Balancing of income and expenditure is the best way of money management. Whatever the income may be, the efficient management of money is a requisite for a happy, successful and peaceful family life.</em>

Alchen [17]

Answer:

12.88%

Explanation:

Angela's disposable income $2,368

monthly expenses including recreational expenses ($2,127)

net cash flow $241

after expenses are reduced by $64, her net cash flow will increase to $305

Angela's monthly savings rate = (net cash flow / disposable income) x 100 = $305 / $2,368 = 12.88%

A person's savings rate is how much money they save (do not spend) compared to their total disposable income.
