The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act passed in December, 2017, eliminated any personal exemptions ($4,050 per preson) but increased the sta

ndard deduction to $12,000 for single filers and $24,000 for joint filers beginning in 2018 compared to $6,350 and $12,700 respectively in 2017. Ignoring any other changes made by the new tax law (and there are other important changes such as expansion of a child tax credit), what would the threshold for having any taxable income for a family of two adults and three dependent children be in 2018 compared to 2017? (Hint: the threshold in 2017 was the standard deduction for a married couple with five personal exemptions.)

Question 2: Allocating costs using ABC You have an ABC system with three pools number of cost driver units total cost in the poo
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>To calculate the activities rates, we need to use the following formula on each pool:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

Pool 1= 20,000/10,000= $2 per direct labor dollar

Pool 2= 15,000/50= $300 per setup

Pool 3= 10,000/200= $50 per hour

<u>Now, we can allocate costs to each product:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

Product A:

Pool 1= 2*4,000= 8,000

Pool 2= 300*20= 6,000

Pool 3= 50 *50= 2,500

Total allocated costs= $16,500

Product B:

Pool 1= 2*6,000= 12,000

Pool 2= 300*30= 9,000

Pool 3= 50 *150= 7,500

Total allocated costs= $28,500

12345 [234]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": Increase output and hire more workers.

Explanation:

According to the supply law, if the price increases so will the quantity supplied and if the price decreases the same will happen with the quantity supplied. We could say that the relationship between price and quantity supplied is directly proportional.

In the example, <em>as the price of coal increased so will the quantity supplied</em>. <em>If there is to be more supply the output should be higher which is likely to be interpreted in a need for more employees</em>.
