Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": FICA.

Explanation:

FICA (Federal Insurance Contributions Act) tax is a mandatory deduction taken from employees' payment to cover elder American's Social Security and Medicare. It is a 12,4% deduction financed by two parts: half of that amount is taken from the worker's paycheck and the other half is paid by the employer.

At a farmerâ€™s market, a basket of strawberries costs $20 and a basket of peaches costs $18. On Saturday, 23 baskets were sold

nlexa [21]

Based on the calculation done, there are 15 baskets of peaches.

x + y = 23 ..... i

20x + 18y = 430 ...... ii

From equation i, x = 23 - y ..... iii

Put equation iii into ii

20x + 18y = 430

20(23 - y) + 18y = 430

460 - 20y + 18y = 430

2y = 30

y = 30/2 = 15

x + y = 23.

x + 15 = 23

x = 23 - 15 = 8

A cylindrical can that has a capacity of 20 m3 will be made. The metal used to build the top costs $10 per square meter while th

Alchen [17]

The dimensions of the cylinder can be used to minimise cost of manufacture.

<h3>How to we find minimised cost?</h3>

Let's ignore the metal's thickness and assume that the material cost to manufacture is precisely proportionate to the surface area of a perfect cylinder.

A=2πr(r+h)

Given that V=1000=r2h and h=1000=r2, we can write

A=2πr(r+1000πr2)

A=2πr2+2000r−1

By setting the derivative to zero, we may determine the value of r that minimises A:

A′=4πr−2000r−2

0=4πr−2000r−2

2000r−2=4πr

2000=4πr3

r=500π−−−√3

r=5.419 + cm

h=1000πr2=10.838 + cm

The can with the smallest surface area has a volume of 1000 cm 3 and measures 5.419+ cm in radius and 10.838+ cm in height. The can has a surface area of 553.58 cm 2. Given a constant volume, the cylinder with diameter equal to height has the least surface area.

Can surface area (cm2) versus. radius (cm), where capacity = 1000cm 3.

You are given the following information for Watson Power Co. Assume the company’s tax rate is 23 percent. Debt: 8,000 5.7 percen

____ [38]

Answer:

the company's WACC is 10.04%

Explanation:

Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) is the minimum return that a project must offer before it can be accepted. It shows the risk of the company.

Capital Source Market Value Weight Cost Total Weight

Debt $8,400,000 27.71% 4.389 % 1.22%

Common stock $24,190,000 71.17% 12.2% 8.68%

Preferred stock $1,400,000 4.12% 3.5% 0.14%

Total $ 33,990,000 100.00% 10.04%

Calculation of Market Value and Cost of Debt

Market Value = 8,000×($1,000×105%) = $8,400,000

Cost of Debt = interest × (1 - tax rate)

= 5.7% × ( 1-0.23)

= 4.389 %

Calculation of Market Value and Cost of Common stock

Market Value = 410,000× $59 = $24,190,000

Cost of Common stock = Risk free Rate + Beta × Market Premium

= 4.5% + 1.10× 7%

= 12.2%

Calculation of Market Value and Cost of Common stock

Market Value = 17,500× $80 = $1,400,000

Cost of Preferred stock = 3.5%

Calculation to determine what The amount reported on Sun Angel's 2020 year end balance sheet for Estimated Warranty Liability is:

Estimated Warranty Liability=(1%+3%*$184,743,795)-$5,179,626

Estimated Warranty Liability=$7,389,752-$5,179,626

Estimated Warranty Liability=$2,210,126

Therefore The amount reported on Sun Angel's 2020 year end balance sheet for Estimated Warranty Liability is:$2,210,126
