The overall system of taxation in the United States is progressive. By a progressive tax system, we mean that the percentage of income an individual pays in taxes tends to increase with increasing income. Not only do those with higher incomes pay more in total taxes, they pay a higher rate of taxes.

Jabiru Corporation purchased a 20% interest in Fish Company common stock on January 1, 2013 for $300,000. This investment was ac

Vesna [10]

Answer:

$280,950

Explanation:

As for the information given:

Closing balance of investment on 31 December 2015 = $440,000

Now the following adjustments need to be made to calculate the balance as on 1 August 2016

Add: Share of income from Jan to Jul 2016 = $4,000 $\times$ 7 months $\times$ 20% = $5,600

Less: Dividend Received = $20,000 $\times$ 20% = $4,000

Less: Amortization of patent = $6,000/12 $\times$ 7 = $3,500

= $440,000 - $1,900 = $438,100

Since Jabiru sold half of its investment, thus, value of its half of the investment shall be:

$438,100/2 = $219,050

Sale value = $500,000

Thus, gain amount = $500,000 - $219,050 = $280,950

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The answer is: Following the expected value criterion the investor should choose indistinctively between the conservative or neutral alternatives.

Explanation:

The formula we use to calculate the expected return value of the different alternatives is:

ERV = ∑ (expected return x probability of occurrence)

The conservative alternative has an expected return value of of 4.5%

ERV Conservative = (6% x 25%) + (4% x 75%) = 4.5%

The neutral alternative also has an expected return value of of 4.5%

ERV Neutral = (12% x 25%) + (4% x 75%) = 4.5%

The aggressive alternative has an expected return value of of -1%

ERV Aggressive = (20% x 25%) + (-8% x 75%) = -1%

The break-even quanity for a certain kitchen appliance is 6000 units. The selling price is $10 per unit, and the variable cost i

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The correct answer is $36,000.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Break even quantity = 6000 units

Selling price = $10 / unit

So, Sales cost = 6,000 × $10 = $60,000

Variable cost = $4 / unit

So, total variable cost = 6,000 × $4 = $24,000

So, we can calculate the fixed cost by using following method:

Fixed cost = Sales cost - Variable cost

By putting the value,

Fixed cost = $60,000 - $24,000

= $36,000.

Hence, the fixed cost is $36,000.
