Answer:

(c) $5

Explanation:

Remember, To calculate marginal cost, we divide the change in production costs by the change in quantity.

In this example, the change in production cost is $200 (for hiring an additional worker) while the change in quantity of taco is 40 (increase in marginal productivity).

The marginal cost= $200/40

we get $5 as the marginal cost.

ololo11 [35]

In 2016, Saratoga Company had the following financial data: Operating income $320,000 Interest received $50,000 Interest paid $90,000 Dividend received $100,000 Dividend paid $150,000 Dividend of $100,000 was received from Findlay Inc. which is one of the companies that Saratoga company invest. As of the end of 2016, Saratoga Company owns 35% of Findlay, Inc.

Using the corporate tax rate table given below, what was the company’s tax Liability (just federal corporate income tax) for the year 2008?

335,000 - 10,000,000 34% 113,900 + .34x(inc>335,000)

Answer:

$78,200

Explanation:

From the given information:

Operating income = $320,000

Interest received = $50,000

Interest paid = $90000

Dividend received = $100000

Dividend paid        = $150,000

Therefore:

Saratoga Company Total Income = Operating income + Interest Received + Dividend Received  - Interest Paid - Dividend paid

Saratoga Company Total Income = $320,000 + $50,000 + $100,000 - $90,000 - $ 150,000

Saratoga Company Total Income = $470000 - $ 240000

Saratoga Company Total Income =  $230,000

According to the table given ;

The table tax percentage = 34 %

= $230,000  × 0.34

= $78,200

arsen [322]

Answer:

The NPV of the project is -$68,870

Explanation:

- We have the cash flows from the investment and its timing as listed below:

+ Year 0 : - (Initial Machine investment cost + working capital) = -$573,000;

+ Year 1 - Year 8, each year: Labor and other cost reduction = $117,000;

+ Year 9: Labor and other cost reduction + Working capital recovery = 117,000 + 3,000 = $120,000.

- Thus, net present value of the project is all the above cash flows discounted at required rate of return 18%, calculated as followed:

-573,000 + [ (117,000/0.18) / ( 1 - 1.18^-8) ] + (120,000/1.18^9) = -$68,870.

- So, the answer is NPV of the project is -$68,870.

Your mortgage is a 30-year fixed at 8% on $150,000. You are considering refinancing at 3.5% fixed for 30 years. The bank charges
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Option A,4 months

Explanation:

Closing fees =1.5% of the mortgage

mortgage amount is $150,000

closing fees =$150,000*1.5%=$2250

The mortgage monthly payment can be computed using the pmt formula in excel as follows:

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

rate is the rate per month which is 3.5%/12=0.002916667

nper is 30 years multiplied by 12 =360

pv is the amount of mortgage which is $150,000

fv is the sum of the interest on mortgage and mortgage amount which is unknown

=pmt(0.002916667 ,360,-150000,0)= 673.57  

the final answer=closing fees/monthly payment=$2250 /$673.57  = 3.34  months

The closest option is 4 months
