Answer:

(Decrease, Increase)

Explanation:

When the government formulates and implements policies aimed at increasing equality, the society will experience a reduction in the level of efficiency. For example, an increase in income tax on wealthiest Americans, and redistribution of the tax revenue to the poorest Americans would may discourage the wealthy from taking more income-generating activities which create jobs, this is not optimal. At the same time, this policy would reduces the peoples’ incentive to work hard to earn their own money.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The Customer Lifetime Value of firm A amounts to $41,405. Hence, the correct option is 3

Explanation:

The formula to compute the Customer Lifetime Value of firm A is:

Customer Lifetime Value of firm A = Average annual sales × Average Profit Margin × Uniform series PW ( Present Worth) factor

= $55,000 × 15% × 5.0188

= $41,405

where

Average annual sales is $55,000

Average Profit Margin is 15%

We need to find out this:

The formula to compute this:

Uniform series PW factor = ( 1 + i%) ^ n - 1 / i % × ( 1 + i%) ^ n

                                          = ( 1 + 15%) ^ 10 - 1 / 15% × ( 1 + 15%) ^ 10

                                          = (1.15 ^ 10 -1) / (0.15 × 1.15 ^10)

                                          = 5.0188

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

Beginning Raw Materials 8,000

Purchases                      133,000

Ending Raw materials       (10,100)

Used into production      130,900

Beginning WIP     5,400

cost added   416,900

total cost  422,300

ending WIP   (20,400)

COGM          401,900

Beginning FG        70,000

COGM               401,900

goods available    471,900

ending FG       (25,500)

COGG               446,400

Overhead 18,000 udnerapplied

Sales             652,000

COGM          (464,400)  - (446,400 + 18,000)

Gross Profit   187, 600‬

S&A               (145,000)

Net income     42,600

Explanation:

We work the following reasoning:

the beginning inventory are the materials at hand at the beginning then we add up the purchases and compare with ending ivnentory. The difference was used into production.

Same thinking applpies to how to calculate for cost of goods manufactured and cost of goods sold.

side calculation:

cost added during the period:

mateirals used + direct labor + applied overhead

Overhead:

actual   223,000

applies 205,000

as the cost were higher we will adjust to increase overhead by 18,000 It was underapplied

This will increase the COGS in the income statement.

<u>Net income: </u>

we will calculate the net income by subtracting the COGS and the expenses from the sales revenues.
