Answer:

<em>d. regressive tax.</em>

Explanation:

Because as we can see on the given statements that lower income people come to buy grocery than the higher income people, so the 10-cent fee for disposable bags will come under regressive tax, as we know that regressive tax is a tax in which is taken or collected largely from the lower income people than the higher income people.

<em>So, the correct option will be OPTION (d).</em>

A $200,000 loan amortized over 12 years at an interest rate of 10% per year requires payments of $21,215.85 to completely remove
lesya [120]

Answer:

loan balance after 12 years = $185409.8

Explanation:

Loan principal = $200000

interest = 10% of principal

amount paid yearly  = $21215.85

For 1st year

principal for the first year = $200000

required interest to be paid = 10% of 200000 = $20000

amount paid = $21215.85

Loan Balance after first year = (principal for first year) - (amount paid - 10% of principal ) = $198,784.15

For 2nd year

principal for the 2nd year = Loan balance after first year = $198,784.15

loan balance after 2nd year = 198784.15 - ( 21215.85 - 10% of 198784.15)

= $197568.30

same applies for the different years until the 12th year

using this formula :

Loan Balance after Nth year = [ Loan balance after (n-1) year - ( amount paid - 10% of loan balance after (n-1) year ) ]

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

$114,000

Explanation:

The computation of the residual income is shown below:

As we know that

Residual Income = Net operating Income - Average Operating assets × Required rate of return

where,

Net Operating Income is

= Sales Revenue - Variable Costs - Fixed Costs

= $500,000 - $300,000 - $50,000

= $150,000

And,

Average operating Assets is

= Net Operating Income ÷ Return on Investment

= $150,000 ÷ 0.25

= $600,000

So, the residual income is

= $150,000 - $600,000 × 6%

= $150,000 - $36,000

= $114,000
