<span>Prefer the 6.1 percent tax-exempt investment.
Let's do the math and see why the tax-exempt investment is the better choice. For the 8.1% taxable investment, you get taxed at the rate of 28%. Which means that you only get to keep 100%-28% = 72% of your gains. So 0.72 * 8.1 = 5.832 which means your effective earning percentage is only 5.832% which is less than the 6.1% rate you get for the tax-exempt investment. Another consideration that wasn't taken into account for the question is the earnings on the taxable investment may push you up into a higher tax bracket. Which in turn increases the tax burden on your other investments. So the better choice here is the 6.1% tax-exempt investment even though that first glance the 8.1% investment looks higher.</span>

Answer:
salary prior to taxes and tax deductions.
Explanation:
A pay stub usually referred to as a pay slip or paycheck stub is the financial document that lists the amount of money an employee is paid. It is generally issued by the employers for each
pay period.
Pay stub gives a detailed information about total earnings of an employee for the pay period, tax deductions from the total as well as the net pay after deductions.
Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) is usually written on all pay stubs, which is an indication of an employee's contribution to Medicare and Social Security.
Answer:
$6.25 per ton of coal
Explanation:
the depletion base = purchase cost + restoration costs
- purchase cost = $20 million
- restoration costs = $6 million
depletion base = $26,000,000
depletion rate per ton of coal = (depletion base - salvage value) / estimated reserves = ($26,000,000 - $1,000,000) / 4,000,000 = $6.25 per ton of coal
The depletion rate follows the same concepts as depreciation of fixed assets, but instead of using a fixed asset, you are extracting materials and decreasing the value of the deposits.
