Answer:

a) X = 14.7%

b) X = 140%

c) X = 10.76%

d) X = 5.83%

e) X = 40%

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a) Let the tax rate be = X%

then 0+(X × 10,000)÷100+(X × 130,000)÷100+(X × 240,000)÷100 = $56,000

100X+1,300X+2,400X = $56,000

X = $56,000÷3,800

= 14.7%

b) ((X × 10,000)÷100)× 4 = $56,000

400X = $56,000

X = 140%

c) ((X × 130,000)÷100)×4 = $56,000

5,200 X = $56,000

X = 10.76%

d) ((X × 240,000)÷100 )×4 = $56,000

9,600 X = $56,000

X = 5.83%

e) X× 0+(X × 10,000)÷100+(X × 130,000)÷100 = $56,000

1,400 X = $56,000

X = 40%

Masja [62]

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The efficient market hypothesis is a theory in modern financial economics which states that the share prices reflect all available information and alpha generation is impossible. Neither fundamental nor technical analysis can give excess returns which are also risk-free.

Share prices in an efficient market reflect all the information, both public and private. This information includes future predictions. All this information is widely available to all the investors and they correctly interpret this information and quickly adjust to it.

What is the major purpose of a bank reconciliation statement?
lara31 [8.8K]
Purpose of a bank reconciliation statement.
A bank reconciliation statement is used to compare your record to those of your bank to see if there is difference between the two sets of records. The ending balance of your version of cash records is known as the book balance while the bank`s version is known as bank balance. It is common for there to be a difference in the two balances. The results to the differences might be due to overdrawn bank account, bounced checks and overdraft fees. It is important for you to check the difference because there might be substantial variance between the amount you think you have and that the bank thinks you have. In some cases the bank may even elect to close down your account.
