Which of the following is an expense of this period? Multiple Choice Costs of items paid for in this period but used up next per
OleMash [197]

Answer: Costs of items used up this period but paid for next period

Explanation:

Period Expenses for the period are transactions that should be expensed because they were used in the current period.

Therefore if a period cost is not used in the period, it is not considered a period cost even if the company pays for it in the current period which also means that if a period cost for the period is not paid in the current period but in the next one, it is still a period cost for the current period.

From the above therefore, the period cost is the cost of items used up in this period but paid for in the next one.

The land purchased might look like the obvious choice but it is not because Assets are capitalised and not expensed.

You will receive annual payments of $800 at the end of each year for 12 years. The first payment will be received in Year 3. Wha
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Option (d) $5,549.96

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Annual payments = $800

Time, n = 12 years

Discount rate, r = 7% = 0.07

Now,

PV2 = Annual payments × ((1 - (1 + r)⁻ⁿ)) ÷ r ) × (1 + r)

=  $800 × ( (1 - ( 1 + 0.07)¹²)) ÷ 0.07) × (1 + 0.07)

PV2 = $6,354.15

Therefore,

Present value today = PV2 ÷ (1 + r )²

= $6,354.15 ÷ (1 + .07)²

or

= $5,549.96

Hence,

Option (d) $5,549.96

Most goods in the economy are _____.(A) a natural monopolies. (B) public goods.(C) common resources. (D) private goods.
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

(D) private goods.

Explanation:

Goods is a material that, in economic theory, satisfies people's wishes and provides usefulness. Goods and services are different. In economic theory all goods are considered material, but in reality such goods as information (or information) are non-material goods. For example, although Apple is a tangible asset among other commodities, news is related to non-material class goods and can only be perceived through tools such as Computer and Printing. Material goods such as apples differ from non-material goods as information in terms of the impossibility of a person to keep the other physically, while the former occupies a certain physical area. Intangible goods differ from services in the sense that they are transferable or sold. Price elasticity also differentiates the types of goods. Elastic goods are commodities where there are major changes in quantities due to small changes in the price and, therefore, relate to the family of substitute goods; For example, consumers will prefer to buy pencils, such as pencil shields. Intangible goods are few and no substitutes, such as racing tickets, artist's original work, and medical supplies such as insulin. Complementary goods are more elastic than substitutes. It depends on which commodity is substituting or complementary to other goods.

Private goods are both excludable and rival in consumption. Most goods in the economy are private goods. A private commodity or goods is a product to be purchased for consumption and prevents the consumption of another by one person. In other words, when there is competition between people for the sake of good, good is something special or private, and consuming good prevents one from consuming it.

An employee earns $5,750 per month working for an employer. The FICA tax rate for Social Security is 6.2% of the first $128,400
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

$4838.5

Explanation:

We can calculate the amount of net pay for the employee for the month of January by deducting all the monthly expenses from the employee's monthly salary which is $5,750.

Wages Per Month                                 $5,750

Less:

Federal Income Taxes Withheld         $208

FICA Social Security                             $356.5

FICA Medicare                                      $83

Health Insurance                                  $176

Retirement Plan                                 $88

Net Pay for the employee                 $4838.5

Woeking

FICA(social security) = 5,750 x 6.2% = 356.5

FICA(Medicare) = 5750 x 1,45% = 83
