The correct option is : b. When volume increases, but at a nonconstant rate.
Explanation:
Curvilinear costs is a type of expense that <u>does not increase at a constant rate with the production volume.</u> It tends to have a sudden increase at low production volumes, then remains constant in the middle and then increases at high production volumes.
The curvilinear costs does not increase linearly with the production. Therefore, curvilinear cost is also called a nonlinear cost.
<u>Therefore, curvilinear costs always increase at a nonconstant rate with the increase in the production volume.</u>
Answer: $23.63 million
Explanation:
First and foremost, we can calculate the quarterly common stockholder dividend which will be:
= $0.25 × 1 Million
= $0.25 million
Then, the annual dividend to the common stockholders will be:
= $0.25 million × 4
= $1 million
The quarterly preferred stockholder dividend will be calculated as:
= $0.50 × 0.50 Million
= $0.25 million
We would then multiply $0.25 million by 4 to get the annual dividend attributable to the preferred stockholders which will be:
= $0.25 million × 4
= $1 Million
Total Dividend would then be:
= Annual dividend to common stockholders + Annual dividend to preferred stockholder
= $1 Million + $1 Million
= $2 Million
The value of the retained earnings balance at the end of the year will then be:
= Retained Earnings at the beginning of the year + Net Income – Dividend
= $23.45 + $2.18 - $2.00
= $23.63 million

For computational purposes, both the Mortgage interest as well as the miscellaneous itemized deducted qualify as deductions based on the Schedule A which is the regular tax purposes.
However, only Mortgage interest will be allowable itemized deduction because miscellaneous itemized deductions fall under the category of adjustments and as such do not qualify for deductions under the AMT which is the Alternative Minimum Taxable Income.
Based on the explanation, only $11,000 of mortgage interest qualifies.
