Answer:

c. $900

Explanation:

The computation of the earnings before taxes (EBT) is shown below:

= Sales - operating costs other than depreciation - depreciation expense - outstanding bonds × interest rate

= $10,000 - $7,250 - $1,250 - $8,000 × 7.5%

= $10,000 - $7,250 - $1,250 - $600

= $900

We ignored the state income tax rate of 25% and the rest of the items would be taken for the computation part

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The per-unit standards for direct labor are 2 direct labor hours at $15 per hour. If in producing 1800 units, the actual direct labor cost was $48000 for 3000 direct labor hours worked.

We need to calculate the total direct labor variance, using two formulas:

Direct labor efficiency variance= (SQ - AQ)*standard rate

Direct labor efficiency variance= (1,800*2 - 3,000)*15= $9,000 favorable

Direct labor rate variance= (Standard Rate - Actual Rate)*Actual Quantity

Direct labor rate variance= (15 - 48,000/3,000)*3,000= $3,000 unfavorable

Total direct labor variance= 9,000 - 3,000= $6,000 favorable

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

c. automatic fiscal policy 

Explanation:

Automatic fiscal policy are policies triggered automatically due to the state of the economy which causes either government spending or taxes to increase or decrease.

For example, if the economy is undergoing a downturn and real GDP falls, the amount paid as taxes would fall.

If the economy is booming and the real GDP rises, the amount paid as taxes would rise.

These are examples of automatic fiscal policies.

Discretionary fiscal policy is when the government purposely increases or reduces either its spending or taxes in response to the economic conditions.

I hope my answer helps you.

Alja [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

interest rates on a three-year bond =(int in year1+int in year2+int in year3)/n =  (3+4.5+6)/3 =4.8%

interest rates on a six-year bond = (3%+4.5%+6% +7.5%+ 9%+ 10.5%)/6 = 7.35%

interest rates on a nine-year bond = (3%+4.5%+ 6%+ 7.5%+ 9%+ 10.5%+ 13%+ 14.5%+16%)/9 =10.23%

So, int rate on a 3 year bond is 4.8%; on a 6 year bond is 7.35%; on a 9 year bond 10.23%
