Answer:

True.

Explanation:

True, The given situation is true because the pleasure (utility) provided by Alpha is greater than the pleasure (utility) provided by the Beta. Therefore, a rational person will buy only that commodity which has a higher utility. Here, we can see the Alpha provides 10 units of utility or pleasure per dollar while Beta provides 8 units of utility or pleasure per dollars. So, only Alpha will be chosen.

Assume that the corporate tax rate is 34% and the personal tax rate is 30%. The founders of a newly formed business are debating
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

b. 23.8%

Explanation:

For computing the percentage difference, we have to compute the Pre-tax income of both corporations and the partnership

For corporations:

Pre-tax income = (1 - corporate tax rate) × (1 - personal tax rate)

                         = (1 - 0.34) × (1 - 0.30)

                         = 0.66 × 0.70

                         = 0.462 or 46.2%

For partnership:

Pre-tax income = (1 - personal tax rate)

                         =  (1 - 0.30)

                         = 0.70 or 70%

So, the difference would be

= 70% - 46.2%

= 23.8%

The computation of comprehensive income is shown below:-

Comprehensive income = Cash dividend + Unrealized holding gain
