Answer:

She should invest in a State of New York bond.

Explanation:

The return on a State of New York bond is 9.4%.

The return on a Surething Inc. bond is 12%.

Fergie has a 30% marginal tax.

A state tax will not be taxed. However, a corporate bond will be taxed.

After tax return will be

= 12\% -\ (12\% \times\ 30\%)

= 0.12\ -\ (0.12\ \times\ 0.3)

= 0.12 - 0.036

= 0.084

So, the return after tax will be 8.4%.

This is lower than the return on the state bond.

So, Fergie will invest in State bond.

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

$1,545,000

Explanation:

The formula to compute the cost of the building equal to

Rate of return = (Rental income - expenses) ÷ (cost of building )

where,

Rate of return = 8%

Rental income equals to

= ($600 × 4 units + $750 ×  4 units + $725 × 4 units + $800 × 4 units) ×  12 months

= $138,000

Total expense

= $1,200 ×  12 month

= $14,400

Now the cost of building would be

8% = ($138,000 - $14,400) ÷ (cost of building )

8% = $123,600

So, the cost of building equal to $1,545,000

At the beginning of the period, the Cutting Department budgeted direct labor of $52,350 and supervisor salaries of $42,150 for 3
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

$77,000

Explanation:

Direct Labor = $52,350 (Its varies with the number of Production hours). Hence, $52,350   for 3,490 hours

For 3,800 hours, (52,350/3,490) * 3,800 = $57,000

Supervisor Salaries = $20,000 (Since the Supervisor Salary is not an incremental cost, it is a fixed one). So, the Supervisor Salaries remain $20,000

Net budget (flexible) = $57,000 + $20,000

Net budget (flexible) = $77,000

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

product bundle

Explanation:

Product bundling is a sales promotion strategy that involves marketers offer a discount on two or more items sold together as a single item.  Complementary goods, or similar items are packaged and offered to consumers. Product bundling is also called package deals.

Product bundling may be targeted to a particular item on the bundle or both. Due to the discount offered, product bundling increases the revenues from the products on offer. It also can increase the market share for each of the products on offer. In this case, a haircut and a conditioning treatment are complementary services. Bundling them together encourages consumption for both.
