Answer:

It should accept the special order at the price of $36 as the total marginal cost will be $28.5 (27 variable cost + 1.15 shipping cost).

Explanation:

Special orders are accepted only if marginal revenue increases the marginal cost. Marginal cost is the total cost incurred to fulfill any order.

In the given scenario, since the Company already has adequate capacity and it will not incur any additional fixed cost, therefore the order can be accepted by taking variable cost in to consideration.

Marginal Revenue               36

Less: Marginal Cost

Variable Cost                      (27)

Shipping Cost                   <u> (1.15)</u>

Total Profit from Order   <u> 7.85</u>

The answer is $6200.00

Based on https://taxfoundation.org/2014-tax-brackets/

The standard deduction single based on the source is $6200. Tax exemptions for singles are up to $52,800. The threshold on this tax is an annual salary of $254,200. Higher salaries would have higher tax deductions. Once a single tax holder enters $376,700 the person would no longer be included for higher exemption because of the gross compensation increase.

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

1. I feel like Pat's new strategy isn't ethical. Pat doesn't pay for the suits; he just buys them and then returns them. Pat benefits, but the store he gets the suits from doesn't. In fact, they are harmed from this transaction because they are unable to have the suit for others to buy while Pat has it. There could be consequences with this strategy. For example, the suit might be damaged, and Pat won't be able to return it. Another problem is that others might find out about Pat's strategy, and they might view them as unprofessional. This is a problem for Pat since the reason Pat wore those suits was to look professional.

2. The stores are harmed from this transaction. They are unable to sell the suits to other buyers. The stores lose potential customers, so the stores lose potential money.

3. The companies should record that Pat had bought the suit only to return it the next day, so that they can act accordingly when Pat or someone else comes back to "buy" a suit.
