Given:

Annual Demand(D) = 200,000 × 12 = 2,400,000  units

Cost per order(S) = $500 per order

Holding cost(H) = 20% of Unit cost = $10 × 20% = $2

Unit cost =$10

Computation:

1)  Optimal Order size = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H} }

Optimal Order Size= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 2,400,000\times 500}{2} }

Optimal\ Order\ Size = 34,641 Units (Approx)

2)  Annual\ holding\ cost = (Optimal\ Order\ Size / 2) \times Holding\ Cost

Annual holding cost = (34,641 / 2) × 2

Annual holding cost = $34,641

3)  Number of Order per year = Annual demand / Optimal Order Quantity

Number of Order per year = 2,400,000 / 34,641

Number of Order per year = 69.2820646

Number of Order per year = 69 order (Approx)

4)  Annual variable transportation cost = Transportation per unit × Annual Demand

Annual variable transportation cost = $0.10 × 2,400,000

Annual variable transportation cost  = $240,000

5)  Annual Clerical Cost = Number of Order per year × Cost per Order

Annual Clerical Cost = 69.282 × $500

Annual Clerical Cost  = $34,641

Solution :

QBI           300000        W-2 wages      40000

Taxable    3814000      QBP                 10000

income

                                      W-2 limit

Phase                           greater of

out MFJ

Start          315000      50% of W-2       20000

Finish        415000    or 25% of W-2     10250

                                  + 2.5% of QBP

                                  Selected             20000     Being higher      As part 1

Taxable income above phase out

$\frac{381,400-315000}{100000}$        66%

Now applying gross deduction and phase out

Gross deduction        Being 20% of QBI      = 66000

Less : wage limit of QBI                                 - 20000

Phase out %                                                     x 66%

Phase out amount                                           30,360

Final deduction = gross deduction- phase out amount

                         = 66,000 - 30,360

                         = 35,640

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Under the periodic inventory system, the companies evaluate the COGS (Cost of goods sold) at the end of the accounting year or the fiscal period. And the details of the goods on hand which are not available, in this system.

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

(A) A wholly owned Subsidiary

Explanation:

A wholly owned subsidiary is a company that is completely owned by another company called the Parent/Holding Company. The parent company will hold all (100%) of the subsidiary's common stock.

A wholly owned subsidiary allows the parent company to diversify, manage, and possibly reduce its risk.

Some of the disadvantages of a wholly owned subsidiary include the possibility of multiple taxation, lack of business focus, and conflicting interest between subsidiaries and the parent company if not properly managed.

In 1924, the famous novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote an article for the Saturday Evening Post entitled ?How to live on $36,000
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

$4,267,059

Explanation:

to determine the equivalent amount of money between 1924 and 2008, we must divide the 2008 CPI by the 1924 CPI, and then multiply by $36,000:

= (2015 / 17) x $36,000 = 118.53 x $36,000 = $4,267,059

The consumer price index measures the weighted price of basket of goods . It is useful for calculating inflation and comparing how the purchasing value of the US dollar has decreased in time. Basically what this shows us, is that $1 in 1924 would purchase the same amount of goods as $118.53 in 2008.
