Carlos is a hard-working college senior. One Saturday, he decides to work nonstop until he has answered 100 practice problems fo

r his physics course. He starts work at 8:00 AM and uses a table to keep track of his progress throughout the day. He notices that as he gets tired, it takes him longer to solve each problem.
Time Total Problems Answered
8:00 AM 0
9:00 AM 40
10:00 AM 70
11:00 AM 90
Noon 100
Use the table to answer the following questions.

The marginal, or additional, gain from Carlos’s second hour of work, from 9:00 AM to 10:00 AM, isproblems.

The marginal gain from Carlos’s fourth hour of work, from 11:00 AM to noon, isproblems.

Later, the teaching assistant in Carlos’s physics course gives him some advice. "Based on past experience," the teaching assistant says, "working on 25 problems raises a student’s exam score by about the same amount as reading the textbook for 1 hour." For simplicity, assume students always cover the same number of pages during each hour they spend reading.

Given this information, in order to use his 4 hours of study time to get the best exam score possible, how many hours should he have spent working on problems, and how many should he have spent reading?

a. 1 hour working on problems, 3 hours reading
b. 2 hours working on problems, 2 hours reading
c. 3 hours working on problems, 1 hour reading
d. 4 hours working on problems, 0 hours reading

Flura [38]

Answer:

$18,000

Explanation:

Given data  for Taylor Company;

Salaries payable at the beginning of 2015 (end of 2014) = $18,000

Salary expense during the year (2015) = $50,000

Salaries paid during the year = $50,000

Salary payable at end of year (2015) = ?

Let the salary payable at end of year= S

Using the formula

Salaries payable at the beginning of the year + Salary expense during the year - Salaries paid = Salary payable at end of year

$18,000 + $50,000  - $50,000  =S

S = $18,000

Salaries payable as at December 31, 2015 is $18,000.

A manufacturer of triaxial accelerometers wants to have $2,800,000 available 10 years from now so that a new product line can be
melomori [17]

Calculation of equal amount to deposit each year to get the future amount:


It is given that a manufacturer of triaxial accelerometers wants to have $2,800,000 available 10 years from now. So we can say that Future value is $2,800,000. We are also given that the deposit rate is 6% per year.

In order to find out the equal amount to deposit each year we need to calculate the annuity using the future value of annuity formula as follows;

Annuity = Future value of annuity / FV of $1 annuity

FV of $1 annuity (at 6% rate for 10 years) is 13.18079


Hence,

Annuity =2,800,000 / 13.18079 = 212,430.36

Hence , equal amount to deposit each year is $212,430.36

disa [49]

Answer:

Deferred tax asset = $402,500

Explanation:

given data

Income before income taxes = $3,300,000

Taxable income= $4,450,000

tax rates 2016 = 35%

tax rates 2017 = 30%

solution

first we will take here difference between Income before income taxes and Taxable income that is

= Taxable income -  Income before income taxes  

= $4,450,000 - $3,300,000

= $1,150,000

we can say now taxable income is the higher income than income before income tax

so we get here Deferred tax asset that is

Deferred tax asset = 35% of $1,150,000  

Deferred tax asset = $402,500
