Answer:

$1,200

Explanation:

Given that

Purchase of a customer delivery van = $50,000

discount rate = 20%

Present value of future cost savings = $51,200

Yield = 20%

Based on the above information, as per the net present value the initial cost of the equipment should not be more than the present value of cash inflows  i.e. $51,200

= $51,200 - $50,000

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

b. $5,600

Explanation:

A cash basis taxpayer will report revenues and expenses when they are actually collected or paid for. The business transaction is not directly related to the moment that the payment occurs (unlike accrual accounting).

in this case, Ralph should report all the income related to monthly rental payments = $5,000 (Nov. 2008 - Oct. 2008) + $600 (the three last months of rent) = $5,600. Security deposits are not considered rental revenue, so they should not be reported as such.

Anna35 [415]

Answer: a. is not subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a lower interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government

Federal income taxes are the taxes that are used in the provision of national programs like settling national debt, infrastructural development, national defense, law enforcement etc.

If an individual owns bonds that are issued by the city of Sacramento, California, it should be noted that the interest that is earned each year on these bonds is not subject to federal income tax and so these bonds pay a lower interest rate than otherwise comparable bonds issued by the U.S. government. Comparable bonds that are being issued by the United States government pay an higher interest.

kirill [66]

Answer:  To increase sale by 10%, the seller must lower the price of the good by 12.5%.

Explanation: Price elasticity of demand measures the responsiveness of quantity demanded to a change in the price. Since, demand and price for a normal good are negatively related to each other, price elasticity is also negative. It can be calculated using,

e_{d}=\frac{Precentage change in quantity demanded}{Percentage change in price}  -0.8=\frac{10}{Percentage change in price}  Percentage change in price = -\frac{10}{0.8}  Percentage change in price = -12.5

Therefore, to increase sale by 10%, the seller must lower the price of the good by 12.5%.
