Answer:
Capital gain tax = $1,540.
Explanation:
As per the data given in the question,
For stocks of A
Profit = (selling price - purchasing price) × units
= ($19 - $23) × 200
= -$800
For stocks of B
Profit = ($57-$41) × 600
= $9,600
Total profit = profit for stock A + profit for stock B
= -$800 + $9,600
= $8,800
Therefore, capital gain for both year = $8,800
Tax rate = 35%
Capital gain tax = Capital gain × Tax rate
= $8,800 × 35%
=$3,080
As share holds for more than a year,
So, Capital gain tax = $3,080 ÷ 2 = $1,540.
Answer: mean monthly income = $5000
====================================================
Explanation
In any normal distribution, the median and mean are the same value.
-------------
The proof is as follows:
If mean > median was the case, then the distribution would be skewed to the right (ie positively skewed). The right tail is pulled longer than the left tail. But this would contradict the symmetrical nature of the normal distribution. So mean > median must not be the case.
If mean < median, then the distribution would be skewed to the left (negatively skewed). Visually this pulls the left tail longer than the right tail. Like in the previous paragraph, this contradicts the symmetrical nature of the normal distribution. So mean < median must not be the case.
Since mean > median cannot be true, and neither can mean < median, this must indicate mean = median.
-------------
So in short, any symmetrical distribution always has mean = median and they are at the very center of the distribution.
Answer: $92,880
Explanation:
The Gross Profit can be calculated by simply removing the cost from the sales amount.
It is stated that the additional processing will yield 10,000 bags of Premium Green and 3,600 bags of Green Deluxe, which can be sold for $7.55 and $5.55 per bag.
Sales figure is therefore,
= (10,000 * 7.55) + (3,600 * 5.55)
= 75,500 + 19,980
= $95,480
Subtracting the cost to get,
= 95,480 - 2,600
= $92,880
The total gross profit would is $92,880.
Answer:
b. The slope of the budget constraint is the same for each woman.
Explanation:
Budget Line is the combination of two goods that a consumer can buy, given prices & money income (all spent).
Equation : p1x1 + p2x2 = m ;
where p1 & p2 are price of good 1 & 2 , x1 & x2 are quantities of good 1 & good 2 , m = money income
- Abby's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 80
- Bobbi's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 60
- Deborah's Budget Line : 5I + 8N = 40 [ I = Icecream, N = Novel ]
Slope of Budget Line represents change (sacrifise) of a good needed to get change (gain) of other good, given same prices & income.
Slope = ΔY/ΔX = Px / Py
Since prices are same for each woman, price ratios & hence the slope of budget line will also be same for all of them.
