Answer:  government taxes on products or services entering a country that primarily serve to raise prices on imports.

Explanation:

Tariffs are known to be taxes which the government of a particular country charges on goods and services which are imported into the country from other countries. It is a form of trade protection which the government uses in protecting local companies. Thus, the government imposes taxes on imported goods in order to make the prices of the goods high so that citizens can buy local or domestic goods and as a result encourage domestic companies to produce more of the local goods.

kondaur [170]

Answer:  a)The decision tree is attached as a document to this question.

b)$140000

Here is the complete question:

. A manager is trying to decide whether to buy one machine or two. If only one is purchased and demand proves to be excessive, the second machine can be purchased later. Some sales will be lost, however, because the lead time for purchasing this type of machine is 6 months. In addition, the cost per machine will be lower if both are purchased at the same time. The probability of low demand is estimated to be 0.20. The after-tax net present value of the benefits from purchasing the two machines together is $90,000 if demand is low and $180,000 if demand is high.

If one machine is purchased and demand is low, the net present value is $120,000. If demand is high, the manager has three options. Doing nothing has a net present value of $120,000; subcontracting, $160,000; and buying the second machines, $140,000.

a. Draw the decision tree for this problem.

b. Use the decision tree to determine how many machines the company should buy initially and give the expected payoff for this alternative.

Explanation:

Concepts and reason

The expected value of perfect information (EVPI)= EPPI - EP

(EPPI) =expected payoff with perfect information

(EP)= maximum expected payoff  computed under uncertainty.

Fundamentals

The expected payoff = P₁X₁ + P₂X₂ +....PnXn,

The formula for the expected payoff is, E(X) = ΣxΡ(x)

Suppose you have a set of corresponding probabilities for playing your pure strategies = Pn

where the probabilities must all be greater than or equal to zero and they all sum to one.

b) the values at node 4 = $120000, $140000 and $160000

EV =maximum(node4)

=max($120000, $140000 , $160000)

=$140000

expected payoff at node 4 = $140000

Tronnes Corporation's net income last year was $1,750,000. The dividend on common stock was $2.60 per share and the dividend on
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

  • The price-earnings ratio is closest to:

B. 11.54

Explanation:

To find the Price-Earning Ratio first, it's necessary to deduct from the Net Income the part corresponding to Preferred Stock,

which is , $1,750,000 - (100,000*2,5= $250,000) = $1,500,000

Then we calculte the Earning/Share Ratio : $1,500,000/300,000 = 5

Finally with the Market Price of shares, we can calculate the Price Earnings Ratio ; $57,70 / $5 =  11,54

Shares of Common stock outstanding    300.000   780.000  

Shares of Preferred stock outstanding    100.000   250.000  

NET INCOME Available   1.500.000  

The market price    57,70  

Price–Earnings Ratio   11,54  

Earnings/Share Ratio   5,00  

NET INCOME  $ 1.750.000

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

 Deductible Interest is $11,250

Explanation:

Compute at the amount of $750,000 the interest Amy could deduct as follows:

Since the interest on loan secured by home could be deduct on the first $750,000 borrowing amount. Hence,

 Deductible Interest = Interest Paid × ($750,000 / Loan Secured by income)

 Deductible Interest = $12,000 × ($750,000 / $800,000)

 Deductible Interest = $11,250

Hence, the Amy could deduct interest on borrowing $11,250

The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis​ (BEA) has recently adopted a new approach to calculate real GDP and real GDP growth to cor
pashok25 [27]

One of the features of the new approach is​ that, now BEA uses the geometric average of fixed weight indexes and uses two base years to calculate the growth rate of real GDP between two consecutive years.

Explanation:

In both actual and nominal GDP, the U.S. Economic Analysis Department results. It estimates the real United States. GDP is a fixed base year annual rate. Imports and international sales from American businesses and people are exempt.

GDP reflects the degree to which the economy generates production. Global warming is not generated and not part of GDP. The effect of environmental damage is not measured accurately. The loss should not be included in GDP and the calculation of environmental damage has not been accepted.

On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible. What entry should be recorded on February
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

On February 1, a customer's account balance of $2,700 was deemed to be uncollectible.

The entry to be recorded on February 1 to record the write-off assuming the company uses the allowance method is:

Debit Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $2,700; credit Accounts Receivable $2,700.

Explanation:

Using the allowance method, every bad debt entry is first reflected in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts before it is taken to the bad debt expense account.

The entries above reduce the Accounts Receivable account by the amount of the write-off and reduces the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts by the same amount.  Any recovery of written off debt is also treated in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and the Accounts Receivable account in revised order.  This method is unlike the direct write-off method.  With the direct write-off method, the Accounts Receivable is credited with the amount of the write-off and the write-off is expensed in the Bad Debts Expense account directly.
