Answer:

Close the $2,500 to Cost of Goods Sold.

Explanation:

Underapplied Overhead bis the portion of actual factory overhead cost that was not allocated to units of production. Since overhead cost do not contribute directly to production they need to be allocated to units produced. For example rent paid is $300 and goods produced was 50. The allocated amount per unit produced will be 300/50= $6 per unit.

When overhead is underapplied there is descrepancy between the standard amount allocated and the actual overhead cost. In this case a sum of $2,500.

To remedy this we need to close the $2,500 to Cost of Goods Sold.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer: 2016= $13,000; 2017= $25,000

Explanation:

for 2016

Income to be recognised in 2016 for 12 months term=  Total proceeds x  period of service provided (july -december )/ Total contract term

Income to be recognised in 2016= 14,000 x 6months /12months

= 14,000 x 1/2= $7,000

Income to be recognised in 2016  for 24 months term= Total proceeds x  period of service provided (july -december )/ Total contract term

Income to be recognised in 2016= 24,000 x 6months /24months

= 24,000 x 1/4= $6,000

income to be recognized in taxable income in 2016= $7,000 + $6,000= $13,000

for 2017

Income to be recognised in 2017 for 12 months contract term=  Total proceeds x   remaining period of service provided from jan. to june 2017 / Total contract term

Income to be recognised in 2017= 14,000 x 6months /12months

= 14,000 x 1/2= $7,000

Income to be recognised in 2017 for 24 months contract term=  Total proceeds x   remaining period of service provided  fromjuly 2016 -dec 2017/ Total contract term

Income to be recognised in 2016= 24,000 x (24-6) 18months /24months

= 24,000 x 3/4= $18,000

income to be recognized in taxable income in 2017= $7,000 + $18,000= $25,000

Robert is a single taxpayer who has AGI of $145,000 in 2019; his taxable income is $122,000. What is his federal tax liability f
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

His tax liability for 2019 (due April 2020) is $23,359.50

Explanation:

Since Robert s a single filer, he falls under the fourth tax bracket: income between $84,201 to $160,725. His marginal tax rate is 24%, and his total taxes due are as following:

<u>tax rate</u>         <u>earnings</u>                          <u>taxes due</u>

10%            $0 – $9,875                        $987,50

12%         $9,875 – $40,125                  $3,630

22%        $40,126 – $85,525                $9,988

24%        $85,526 – $122,000              $8,754

                    total                              $23,359.50      

*Option C is the closest one, but it used the 2018 tax brackets, not the 2019.

If the company is using the payback period method and it requires a payback of three years or less, which project(s) should be s
algol [13]

Answer: Project X

Explanation:

The Payback period is the amount of time it would take for the cash inflows accruing from an investment to payoff the cost of the investment.

Project X has a constant cashflow of $24,000 for 3 years and a cost of $68,000 for the Payback period is;

= 68,000/24,000

= 2.83 years

Project Y has an uneven cash flow with a cost of $60,000. Payback is calculated as;

= Year before payback + Amount left to be paid/cashflow in year of payback

Year before payback = 4,000 + 26,000 + 26,000

= $56,000

This means that the third year is the year before payback.

60,000 - 56,000 = $4,000

Payback period = 3 + 4,000/20,000

= 3.2 years

Based on a Payback period of 3 years, only Project X should be chosen as it pays back in less than 3 years.

You are choosing between these four investments and you want to be​ 95% certain that you do not lose more than 8.00% on your inv
borishaifa [10]

Answer: B. Corporate Bonds and T-Bills

Explanation:

As you want to be 95% certain, this would require a 95% confidence interval.

With the given returns and standard deviations, the range of returns expected will be computed by;

Upper limit = Return + 2*SD

Lower limit  Return - 2*SD

Stocks

Upper Limit = 18.37% + 2 (38.79%)

= 96.0%

Lower Limit = 18.37% - 2 (38.79%)

= -59.2%

S&P 500

Upper Limit = 11.84% + 2(20.01%)

= 51.9%

Lower Limit =  11.84% - 2(20.01%)

= -28.2%

Corporate Bonds

Upper Limit = 6.47% + 2(6.98%)

= 20.4%

Lower Limit = 6.47% - 2(6.98%)

= -7.5%

T-Bills

Upper Limit = 3.46% + 2(3.14%)

= 9.7%

Lower Limit = 3.46% - 2(3.14%)

= -2.8%

The lower limit show the lowest return achievable given a 95% confidence level.

<em>Only </em><em>Corporate Bonds</em><em> and </em><em>T-Bills</em><em> will give a minimum that is above 8% so they should be chosen. </em>

Mike has a car accident and Maria saves his life. To show his appreciation, Mike gives Maria a life estate in one of the homes h
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Jackie owns the property until Maria dies

Explanation:

In this specific scenario, Jackie owns the property until Maria dies. That is because, in common law and statutory law, a life estate also known as life tenancy is defined as the ownership of land for the duration of a person's life. Therefore since Mike granted life estate to Maria and not Jackie, the land is legally Maria's to do as she wishes up until the moment of her death. Once this comes to pass the land ownership is returned to Mike.
