<span>The federal government could avoid creating a new federal agency for collecting the tax. The federal government would have to create a new collection system for a national VAT. A national VAT would be less likely to cause jurisdictional conflict between the federal government and the states because states do not depend on VAT as a source of revenue.</span>

Answer:Yield to maturity is 9.59%;  After tax cost of debt =7.672%

Explanation:

 A)   Yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

Where C – Interest payment    = $90

FV – Face value of the security

= $1000

PV – Present value/curent market value = $960

t – years it takes the security to reach maturity= 10 years

imputing the values and calculating,

yield to maturity ={ C + (FV-PV)/t} /  {(FV +PV)/2}

= $90 + (1000-960)/10} / 1000 + 960 /2

$90 + 4= $94 /980= 0.0959

therefore Yield to maturity is 9.59%

B)   After tax cost of debt =    Yield To Maturity  x (1 - tax rate)

=9.59% x (1-20%)= 9.59% x (1-0.2 )= 9.59% x 0.8 =

9.59 % x 80%=7.672%

The quantity of coffee sold fell sharply last month, while the price remained the same. Five people suggest various explanations
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Sam: Supply decreased, but demand was perfectly elastic.

Explanation:

Sam is right because the only possible explanation is that the demand is perfectly elastic and the supply decreased. When the price elasticity of demand is perfectly elastic, the demand curve is completely horizontal. Since the price of coffee remained the same, that means that the quantity demanded will decrease only if the supply of coffee decreased.

The following events took place at a manufacturing company for the current year:
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: $25,369.50

Explanation:

GIVEN THE FOLLOWING :

Purchased direct material = $97,000

(2) Incurred labor costs as follows: (a) direct, $58,000 and (b) indirect, $15,600.

(3) Other manufacturing overhead was $109,000, excluding indirect labor.

(4) Transferred 80% of the materials to the manufacturing assembly line.

(5) Completed 65% of the Work-in-Process during the year.

(6) Sold 85% of the completed goods.

(7) There were no beginning inventories.

Ending work in process inventory is calculated by;

(Beginning inventory + 0.8(direct material purchased) + direct Labor + (indirect labor + other manufacturing overhead)) × percentage Work in process

($0 + (0.8×97000) + 58000 + (15600+109000))×0.65

=($0 + $77,600 + $58,000 + 124600)×0.65 = $169,130

Ending WIP Inventory = (100-85)% × $169,130

0.15 × $169,130 = $25,369.50
