Answer:

Check the following calculations

Explanation:

1.  Received an order for 1,000 units

Cost per unit = $46

now

Incremental revenue per widget = $43

Incremental cost per widget: =( Direct material + Direct Labor + Vairable manufacturing overhead) =

$7 + ($15 × 2) + $4 = 41

Incremental profit per unit = 43 - 41 = $2

Total incremental profit = $2 × 1,000 = $2,000

Kasten can make an extra $2,000

2.  Cost to buy per widget = $39

Cost to make per widget: = ( Direct material + Direct Labor + Vairable manufacturing overhead) =

$7 + ($15 × 2) + $4 = 41

Incremental savings per widget if purchased =41 - 39 = $2

Total incremental savings if purchased = $2 × 10,000 = $20,000

Thus we can say  Kasten will save $20,000 if it buys instead of makes

VladimirAG [237]

Answer and explanation:

Althea is covered by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (<em>EEOC</em>). The EEOC is an agency of the federal government of the United States that enforces federal laws regarding discrimination of <em>race, sex, age, religion, ethnicity, national origin or impairment</em>. Althea was fired with the excuse that it is not "appropriate" for an African American deejay to play music on a white Christian music station. This is reason enough to sue the radio station for discrimination.

Rhonda has an adjusted basis and an at-risk amount of $25,600 in a passive activity at the beginning of the year. She also has a
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

a) Ending adjusted basis and at-risk amount $ 0

(b)The current passive loss is $12,000. Because $7,500 of the loss is used to reduce

the at-risk amount to $0, $4,500 is suspended under the at-risk rules ($12,000 − $7,500 = $4,500).

(c) The $7,500 loss that is not limited by the at-risk rules is subject to the passive loss

rules. Because the taxpayer has not generated any passive income during the year, this $7,500 current-year passive loss is suspended. Therefore, the total suspended passive loss carried forward to subsequent years totals $9,000 ($7,500 current-year suspended loss + $1,500 prior year suspended loss).

Suppose your employer offers you a choice between a $ 4 comma 600 bonus and 200 shares of the company stock. Whichever one you c
Virty [35]

Answer:

a. Suppose that if you receive the stock​ bonus, you are free to trade it. Which form of the bonus should you​ choose? What is its​ value?

I would choose the stock bonus because the current market price = 200 x $64 = $12,800 which is much higher than $4,600 (cash bonus)

b. Suppose that if you receive the stock​ bonus, you are required to hold it for at least one year. What can you say about the value of the stock bonus​ now? What will your decision depend​ on?

Even if you are required to hold the stock for one year, the price difference with the cash bonus is too great = ($12,800 - $4,600) / $4,600 = 178% higher. Since you are employed by the company, you should know if the company is doing well or not, and the probable future stock price.

Only if something catastrophic happened to the company would make the cash bonus more attractive.

e). The impact of computers on our lives is comparable to the impact of the industrial revolution.

f). The amount of money and time I spend on computer games <u>is</u> more than I can afford.

Explanation:

Subject-verb agreement is described as the grammatical rule according to which the subject, as well as, the verb must agree with one another in number. As per the rules, if the subject(noun or noun phrase) is singular, it will take a singular verb while if the subject is plural(noun or noun phrase), it will carry a plural verb.

According to this rule, <u>the first and third sentence fails to follow this agreement</u>. The first sentence inadequately carries a plural verb 'were' with the singular noun ('The statement') and similarly, the third sentence wrongly employs plural verb 'have' with the singular noun 'the use.' The other sentences are grammatically appropriate as the verbs and noun phrases agree in number.
