Lelechka [254]

Answer:

$0.013

0.010724

Explanation:

Given that :

Mean, m = 36500

Standard deviation, s = 5000

Refund of $1 per 100 mile short of 30,000 miles

A.) Expected cost of the promotion :

P(X < 30,000)

Using the Zscore relation :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

Zscore = (30000 - 36500) / 5000

= - 6500 / 5000

= - 1.3

100 miles = $1

1.3 / 100 = $0.013

b. What is the probability that Grear will refund more than $50 for a tire?

100 miles = $1

$50 = (100 * 50) = 5000 miles

Hence, more than $50 means x < (30000 - 5000) = x < 25000 miles

P(x < 25000) :

(25000 - 36500) / 5000

-11500 / 5000

= - 2.3

P(z < - 2.3) = 0.010724 (Z probability calculator)

It is the custom for paper mills located alongside the Layzee River to discharge waste products into the river. As a result, ope
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

D) The supply of the output from the hydroelectric power plants to increase

Explanation:

The externality here is a negative one where the hydroelectric plants has to bear the cost of pollution as the paper mills operates.

Correcting means to make the paper mills pay for the external costs of their production and compensate the power plant for the additional cost that incurred as they have to clean up the water.

As the cost of production reduces, the power plant will be more willing to supply electricity at similar prices, ie. their supply curve will shift to the right. It will intersect with the demand curve of the consumers at a point with higher quantity (and maybe lower price)

In other words, they will supply more electricity.

g100num [7]

  Credit Accumulated depreciation  $1,340

2. Debit Interest expense  $275

   Credit Accrued Interest  $275

3. Debit Supplies expense  $450

4. Debit Unearned Service revenue  $3,100

   Credit Service revenue  $3,100

5. Debit Salaries expense  $900

   Credit Accrued Salaries  $900

Explanation:

Depreciation is the systematic allocation of the cost of an asset to the income statement over the estimated useful life of that asset.

It is determined as the depreciable value of the asset over the estimated useful life of the asset where the depreciable value is the difference between the cost and salvage value of the asset

Mathematically,  

Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/Estimated useful life

It is recorded by debiting depreciation and crediting accumulated depreciation.

When interest is incurred as an expense but yet to be paid, it will be accrued for by Debiting Interest expense and crediting accrued Interest. The same applies to salaries incurred but yet to be paid.

When Supplies is purchased, Debit supplies and credit Cash/Accounts payable. As Supplies are used up, debit supplies expense (with the amount used) and Credit Supplies account.

Amount of supplies used up = $550 - $100

= $450

When a fee is received in advance for a service yet to be rendered, the revenue for such fee is said to be unearned. The entries required are

Debit Cash account and Credit Unearned fees or deferred revenue.

As the service is performed and the revenue is earned, debit Unearned fees and credit revenue.

Earned revenue = $4,000 - $900

= $3,100

ella [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is $300,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:

First we calculate the difference in depreciation,

So, difference in depreciation = $5,500,000 - $3,700,000 = $1,800,000

As, Depreciation is for 3 years,

So, depreciation per year = $1,800,000 ÷ 3 = $600,000

Now, we can calculate the deferred income tax liability as follows:

Deferred income tax liability = $600,000 × 20% + $600,000 × 15% + $600,000 × 15%

= $120,000 + $90,000 + $90,000

= $300,000
