Answer:

Loss of $2,000

Explanation:

In this scenario, we have the following information:

• The adjusted cost basis: $8,000 (the amount paid by the donor)

• The fair market value: $5,000  

• The sold amount: $6,000

Parrot’s basis in the land is $8,000, as same basis the donor had.  

So when he sells it, he must report loss of $2,000 on the sale.

A stock's price fluctuations are approximately normally distributed with a mean of $104.50 and a standard deviation of $23.62. Y
denpristay [2]

Answer:

$ 74.23

Explanation:

We are given the following:

mean, μ = $ 104.50

standard deviation, σ = $ 23.62

Using the z-score table, we have

P(Z < z) = 10%  (since we are evaluating lowest 10% of values)

hence P(Z < z) = 0.10

P(Z < -1.282 ) = 0.10

z = -1.282  (this evaluates to 0.1 on the z-score table)

Using z-score formula,

x = z *σ + μ

substituting the values,

x =- - 1.282 * 23.62 + 104.50

= 74.23

The most for the stock is $ 74.23

Riggs Company purchases sails and produces sailboats. It currently produces 1,300 sailboats per year, operating at normal capaci
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The president of Riggs has missed something.

She should make the Sail instead of buying because its cheaper to manufacture than purchasing it outside.

Explanation:

<u>Cost of Manufacturing the Sails:</u>

Direct materials        $93

Direct Labor              $83

Total                         $173

The president of Riggs has included the $90 overhead  based on $78,000 of annual fixed overhead that is allocated using normal capacity in the cost of manufacturing the sail which is incorrect.

Riggs Company is operating at 80 % of full capacity, hence utelizing the 20% excess capacity would not expand its fixed costs.

Thus said the current fixed cost are irrelevent for this decison and would be incurred whether or not Riggs Company utilizes the excess capacity

<u>Conclusion:</u>

The cost of making the sail is $173 which is lower than the cost of buying them at $ 258.

I would advise The president of Riggs to make the sail by utilizing the excess capacity since its cheaper than purchasing it outside.
