Answer:

(B) Hire the firefighter if the cost of the new firefighter is less than $75,000.

Explanation:

The city should hire the Firefighter only if the cost of new firefighter is less than $75,000.

Since $5 x 15000 residents = $75, 000.

Therefore it is still beneficial to hire a new firefighter if the cost is less than $75, 000

Mutual fund

A Mutual Fund is an investment vehicle made up of a pool of funds collected from numerous investors for the purpose of investing in securities such as stocks, bonds, money market instruments and similar assets. Mutual Funds are operated by professional fund managers, who invest the fund's capital and attempt to produce capital gains and income for the investors.  

One of the main advantages of Mutual Funds is they give small investors access to professionally managed, diversified portfolios of equities, bonds and other securities. Each shareholder, therefore, participates proportionally in the gain or loss of the fund.​

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Debit income summary $30,00

Explanation:

Closing entries are used to move balances from temporary accounts to permanent baccounts so that a business can recognise income or loss made during an accounting period.

2/3 profit and loss is for Dana, that is (2/3)* 30,000= $20,000

1/3 of profit is assigned to Emile that is (1/3)* 30,000= $10,000

So the close out entries will be

A debit to income summary of $30,000

A credit to Dana of $20,000

A credit to Emile of $10,000
