they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $1,300 from corporate bonds. Marc contributed $3,300 to an individual retirement account, and marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $2,300. Marc and michelle have a 10-year-old son, matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, marc and michelle are allowed to claim a $2,000 child tax credit for matthew. Marc and michelle paid $7,600 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $6,665 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the course of the year

Answer:

Since we are not given any specific year, I will use the 2020 tax schedule:

Marc and Michelle's gross income = Marc's and Michelle's salaries + interest from corporate bonds = $70,400 + $14,400 + $1,300 = $86,100

they should choose the standard deduction since it is higher than their itemized deductions = ($24,400)

<u>contribution to IRA = ($3,300)</u>

Marc and Michelle's taxable income = $58,400

Marc and Michelle's tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($58,400 - $19,750)] = $6,613

Alimony payments are not longer tax deductible and interests on municipal bonds is not taxable.

Since their income tax withholdings exceed their tax liability, they should get a refund for $6,665 - $6,613 = $52

Also, since they are allowed a $2,000 child tax credit, but they do not owe any more taxes, they are entitled to a $1,400 refund.

Total refund for 2020 = $1,452.

Wheeler Company can produce a product that incurs the following costs per unit: direct materials, $11.00; direct labor, $25.00,
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

$3.20 per unit

Explanation:

In this question, we have to compare the cost between two cases

In the first case, the total cost per unit would be

= Direct materials per unit + direct labor per unit + overhead cost per unit

= $11 + $25 + $17

= $53

In the first case, the total cost per unit would be

= Purchase price + overhead cost

= $48.55 + $17 × 45%

= $48.55 + $7.65

= $56.20

So, the difference would be

= $56.20 - $53

= $3.20 per unit

Fowler is expected to pay a dividend of $1.81 one year from today and $1.96 two years from today. The company has a dividend pay
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

$77.34

Explanation:

The computation of the current stock price is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

EPS for year 2 = Dividend at year 2 ÷ Payout Ratio

= $1.96 ÷  0.40

= $4.90

Now  the price at year 2 is

Price at year 2 ÷ EPS at year 2 = PE ratio

Price at year 2 ÷ $4.90 = 18.95

Price at year 2 = $92.855

Now finally the current stock price is

= Dividend at year 1  ÷ (1 + rate of interest) + Dividend at year 2 ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^2 + Price at year 2 ÷ (1 + rate of interest)^2

= $1.81 ÷ 1.119 + $1.96 ÷ 1.119^2 + $92.855 ÷ 1.119^2

= $77.34

d. If consumers expect the price of small autos to fall in the near future, they will hold their money to buy autos when their price fall. This will cause the current demand to fall.  

e. When the price of gasoline drops it will become cheaper to use autos. This will lead to an increase in demand for autos.
