Which of these people will be eligible for a tax deduction?

2 answers:

7 0

Interest from banks and dividends are both forms of income, which is taxed. But when you give to charities, you can actually *deduct* it from your taxes.
Let's say you have a stock that gives dividends. That means every month, or six months, etc (depending on the type of dividend) you get paid a certain amount. Sort of like a salary for having the stock.

"tax deductible" means that it can be *deducted* from your amount of taxes owed.

Perez Company reported the following data regarding the product it sells: Sales price $ 56 Contribution margin ratio 25 % Fixed

suter [353]

Answer:

Contribution margin ratio = 1 - variable cost ratio

= 25%

(a) $Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{fixed\ costs}{contribution\ margin}$

$Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{350,000}{0.25}$

= 1,400,000

$Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{Break\ even\ in\ dollars}{sales\ price}$

$Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{1,400,000}{56}$

= 25,000

(b) For profit of $42,000,

$sales=\frac{Profit+fixed\ cost}{contribution\ margin\ ratio}$

$sales=\frac{42,000+350,000}{0.25}$

= 1,568,000

$In\ units=\frac{sales}{sales\ price}$

$In\ units=\frac{1,568,000}{56}$

= 28,000

= $56 × 75%

= $42

New contribution margin = $\frac{New\ sales\ price-variable\ cost}{New\ sales\ price}$

New contribution margin = $\frac{70-42}{70}$

= 0.4

= 40%

$New\ Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{fixed\ costs}{contribution\ margin}$

$New\ Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{350,000}{0.4}$

= $875,000

$New\ Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{New\ Break\ even\ in\ dollars}{New\ sales\ price}$

$New\ Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{875,000}{70}$

= 12,500

The Securities and Exchange Commission is an example of a _____.

galben [10]

Answer:

(A). Federal Administrative Agency

Explanation:

The Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC) is an independent federal government agency responsible for protecting investors, maintaining fair and orderly functioning of the securities market.

The Securities and Exchange Commission was created in 1934 to help restore investor confidence in the wake of the 1929 Stock Market Crash.

The SEC is allowed to bring only civil actions, either in federal court or before an administrative judge.

Most of the administrative agencies are under the supervision of the President. Since SEC is an independent body, the President exercises limited power and control over it. But he does play a major role in influencing the activities of such independent bodies.

Thus, The Securities and Exchange Commission is an example of a Federal Administrative Body i.e option (A).

Management at Gordon Electronics is considering adopting a bonus system to increase production. One suggestion is to pay a bonus

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

<u><em>4,099 units or more</em></u>

Explanation:

The cumulative distribution of a random variable X that follows a normal distribution is given by the area undear the "bell curve" and the values are given by the corresponding table for the standard normal distribution.

The standardized value of the variable X is called Z and is calculated with the formula:

$Z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$

Where:

$\mu=mean=4,000$

$\sigma=standard\text{ }deviation=60$

You read the Z-value for which the probability is greater than or equal to 5% in the table for the values of the area to the right of Z. Using probability = area under the curve ≥ 5%, the Z-value is 1.645 (interpolating between p = 0.0495, Z = 1.64 and p = 0.0505, Z = 1.65).

Substituting in the formula for Z:

1.645 = (X - 4,000) / 60

X= 60 × 1.645 + 4,000 = 4,098.7 ≈ 4,099

Hence, the bonus will be paid on 4,099 units or more.
