Answer: $39,500

Explanation:

Service Cost for the year = Ending PBO - Opening PBO - Interest cost + Benefits paid

<u>Opening PBO</u>

Opening PBO is the amount that the interest was charged on.

Discount rate of 10% came out to be $7,500.

The opening balance = 7,500/10%

= $75,000

Service Cost = 112,000 - 75,000 - 7,500 + 10,000

Service Cost for the year = $39,500

Suppose the marginal propensity to consume is equal to 0.75. If the government lowers tax rates and tax revenue falls by $100 mi
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

$100; $75

Explanation:

Given that:

  • Tax revenue falls by 100 million dollars
  • marginal propensity to consume (MPC) is 0.75.

Due to the fall in tax revenue, disposable income will increase by the same amount, that is, $100 million.

Consuption spending will initially increase by $75 million, as shown below:

= MPC × tax revenue fall

= 0.75 × $100,000,000 = $75,000,000

VLD [36.1K]

Explanation:

Differential Analysis

                                                          Make            Buy

Manufacturing Cost per bottle         $ 67

Purchasing Cost per bottle                                  $35

Freight per bottle                                                  $ 5

<u>Fixed Costs                                                            $ 22   </u>

<u>Total                                                   $ 67              $62   </u>

<u />

The company should buy the bottles from the  outside source because the manufacturing costs are higher than the purchasing costs and the fixed costs.

The fixed costs are the irrelevant costs that will continue whether bottles are manufactured or purchased.

The following transactions occur for the Hamilton Manufacturers.
Radda [10]

Answer:

The answer is stated below:

Explanation:

The accounting equation is as follows:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

Analyzing the transactions:

1. The service is provided to customer on account, which result in increase in assets and the stockholders' equity

So,

Assets        =   Liabilities        +  Stockholders' equity

+ $4,000    = $0                     +  +$4,000

2. The equipment is purchased by signing a note, which result in increase in liability and also increase in the assets.

So,

Assets        =   Liabilities        +  Stockholders' equity

+ $10,500  =   +$10,500         + $0

3. Paid for the advertising, which result in decrease in cash as well as decrease in the equity of the company.

So,

Assets        =   Liabilities        +  Stockholders' equity

- $1,200    = $0                        +  -$1,200
