Answer:

Wealthy's tax bill stand reduced by $168,000

Explanation:

These donations amount for complete deduction.

Income before deduction = $3,000,000

Tax rate = 42%

Therefore tax before deduction = $3,000,000 \times 42% = $1,260,000

Since the donation is completely deductible:

Income after deduction = $3,000,000 - $400,000 = $2,600,000

Tax thereon:

$2,600,000 \times 42% = $1,092,000

Reduction in tax paid = Tax paid without donation - Tax paid after donation

= $1,260,000 - $1,092,000 = $168,000

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Shut down

$1650

$1500

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterised by many buyers and sellers of homogeneous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.  

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit.  If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.  

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.  

in the shut run, a perfect competition should shut down if average variable cost is greater than price. this is the case for this firm $10 is greater than $8.

total fixed cost = average fixed cost x quantity produced = $11 x 150 = $1650

Total variable cost = average variable cost x quantity produced = $10 x 150 = $1500

v = 301000 + 960 t^{2}

while it is adjusted for inflation at:

v \times e^{-0.05t}

so the complete formula for value is:

\frac{301000 + 960 t^{2}}{e^{0.05t}}
