Answer:
D. Interpretation: The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00
zeros: x = 3.586 and x = 6.414
Explanation:
We have been given the following daily profit function;
where y is the profit (in hundreds of dollars) of a taco food truck
and x the price of a taco (in dollars)
The zeros of this profit function can be obtained by solving for x in the following equation;
These will simply be the x-intercepts of the profit function. That is the points where the profit function crosses or intersects the x-axis.
Therefore, an interpretation of the zeros of this function would be;
The zeros are where the daily profit is $0.00
These zeros can be evaluated graphically. We first obtain the graph of the profit function as shown in the attachment below;
We then determine the x values where the graph crosses the x-axis. These values will represent the zeros of our profit function. From the graph, these points are;
x = 3.586 and x = 6.414
Answer:
A)
risk free rate = 8%
market rate = 15%
Xyrong's beta = 1.2
pays 40% of income in dividends
latest EPS = $10
ROE = 18%
k = 8% + (1.2 x 7%) = 16.4%
g = ROE x (1 - 40%) = 10.8%
div1 = [(40% x $10) x (1 + g)] = $4 x 1.108 = $4.432
stock price = $4.432 / (16.4% - 10.8%) = $79.14
B)
div0 = $4
div1 = $4.432
price0 = $103
price1 = $79.14 x (1 + g) = $79.14 x 1.108 = $87.69
holding period return = ($4.43 + $87.69 - $103) / $103] = -0.1056 or -10.56%
Answer:
$3,017
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much, expenses can the Spencers deduct
Airfare (one ticket) $1,300
(2,600/2)
Lodging $675
Meals $555 [($1,110/2)]
Less: 50% limit $278
$277 [$555-$278]
Registration fee ($580 − $120) $460
Car rental $305
Total $3,017
($1,300+$675+$277+$450+$305)
Therefore the expenses that Spencers can deduct will be $3,017
Answer:
$318,400
Explanation:
Cost of Goods Sold $325,000
Less: Inventory Opening January 1 ( $ 31,800)
Add;Closing Inventory $25,200
Cost of Goods Manufactured $318,400
The cost of goods sold are found out by adding opening stock and deducting closing stock from cost of goods manufactured.
In the given scenario we had to follow reverse order to reach out at amount of cost of goods manufactured.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
According to the IRS, nonbusiness bad debts are debts that don't fall into any of these three categories:
- Loans to clients, suppliers, distributors, and employees
- Credit sales to customers, or
- Business loan guarantees
In order for a nonbusiness bad debt to be deductible, it has to be worthless. Nonbusiness bad debts cannot be deducted partially unlike business bad debts. They are deducted as short-term capital losses.
In this case if the taxpayer was able to collect his nonbusiness bad debt then there is nothing to be deducted. The taxpayer must include both the $8,000 (short-term capital gain) and the $35,000 (taxable income) in his gross income.
