Answer:
ME should make the investment because it results in not only higher market share but also a $24,000 increase in profits.
Explanation:
Currently ME's marketing expenditures represent 25% of the industry's marketing expenditures and it matches his market share. Using the competitive parity approach, three additional market share points should cost $120,000 ($40,000 for each point) and should increase gross profits to a total of $1,344,000 ($144,000 increase). The difference between incremental revenue and incremental expenses = $144,000 - $120,000 = $24,000.
Answer:
a. Adjusted Gross income is calculated as;
= Wages + Interest - Deduction
= 41,000 + 700 - 5,000
= $36,700
b. The couple will pick their Standard deduction in 2019 because its more than the itemized deduction.
Standard deduction for couples in 2019 = $24,400
c. I assume you mean their 2019 taxable income which is;
= Adjusted Gross income - Standard deduction
= 36,700 - 24,400
= $12,300
<em>Note; As of 2018 there are no more personal deductions. </em>
