Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

a)Even at twice the original price, the marginal utility per dollar of the 20th train trip may be higher than the corresponding ratio for any other good that Ann might consume, in which case she would be perfectly rational not to alter the number of trips she takes.

After all, missing a trip would be to miss a whole day’s work.    

b.) meals.

The higher price of train tickets makes Ann poorer. The income effect of the price

increase is what leads to the reduction in the number of restaurant meals she eats.

Answer:

Pay recorded for September 29 is $2,100

Explanation:

Jeremy Ortiz is paid based on two sources of income. The first being the annual salary of $36,000 and the second is the commission on all the service contracts sold, which is 3%.

Since the pay period is of semimonthly (15 days), the annual salary would be divided by 24 instead of the regular 12 months. This would mean that salary of $1,500 ($36,000 / 24) would be recorded in the payroll register.

For the commission, the sales done during this semimonthly period was $20,000 of service contracts. The commission at 3% of all sales would be $600 ($20,000 x 3%).

Total pay recorded in the payroll register for the September 29 period would be $2,100 ($1,500 + $600).

castortr0y [4]

Answer & Explanation :

Bank Reconciliation Statement is prepared to reconcile (match) the differences between bank balance as per cash book & bank balance as per pass book, at end of an accounting period.  

The differences may arise because of following reasons :

  • Errors committed by firm or bank
  • Cheques paid but not collected, upto the last date (added in cash book, but not in bank balance)
  • Cheques issued but not yet presented for payment, upto last date (subtracted in cash book, but not in bank balance)
  • Direct expenses & direct incomes settled by bank (done in bank balance, but not in cash book)

BRS involves starting with balance as per any book - cash book or passbook. Then, the adjustments for mismatch are done, to arrive at correct balance as per the other book.
