Answer:
b. $150
Explanation:
Standard deduction refers to deduction available to an individual at a flat rate say 30%.Whereas in itemized deductions, an individual can claim deductions at different rates on different items.
Usually itemized deductions are more beneficial to an individual and in case tax saving in these cases exceeds total standard deductions, itemized deductions should be preferred.
In the given case, contribution of $1000 to church shall amount to a deduction. Since the tax rate applicable to the individual is 15%, the savings in tax shall amount to 15% of $1000 i.e $150.
Answer: 20 seats
Explanation:
The optimal number of business travellers will be the mean of Poisson distribution i.e 20, since the number of business travellers follows Poisson distribution. Which means that the probability that there will be 20 business travellers will be higher than all other numbers.
Therefore 20 seats must be assigned to business travellers to maximize the revenue.
Answer:
(A) $731,250
Explanation:
The formula to compute the break-even point in sales dollars is shown below:
= (Fixed expenses or Fixed cost) ÷ (Contribution ratio)
where,
Contribution ratio = Contribution margin ÷ sales
= $208,000 ÷ $650,000
= 0.32 or 32%
And, the fixed expense is $234,000
Now put the values to the above formula
So, the value would equal to
= $234,000 ÷ 32%
= $731,250
E S ( elasticity of supply ) = .5 ( supply is inelastic: E S < 1 )
The formula is:
E S = Δ Q / Δ P * P / Q,
where: Δ Q is the change in quantity, Δ P is change in price, P is initial price and Q is initial quantity.
.5 = Δ Q / 25 * 50 / 100,000
Δ Q = .5 * 25 * 100,000 / 5
Δ Q = 25,000
Quantity at the new price: Q ( new ) = 100,000 + 25,000 = 125,000
