Answer: Yes

Explanation:

The $785,000 was material because it meets both the quantitative and qualitative factors for materiality. Quantitatively, it is more than 10% of the net income of the company ($7.7million) and qualitatively, it showed a relaxed attitude of management towards accounting misstatements.

Some factors other than quantitative considerations that can be used to determine the materiality of the amount in question are:

  • Effect on changing loss to profit or profit into loss .
  • Effect of management’s compensation .
  • Effect on the public/shareholders/share prices .
  • Possibility of fraud or conflict of interest .
  • Attitude of management to accounting misstatements .

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Optimal package size = 4 units

Optimal package price = $20

Explanation:

P = 8 - 1.5Q and C(Q) = 2.0Q, MC = 2

To obtain optimal package size, we put

Price is equal to the marginal cost, P = MC

8 - 1.5Q = 2

     1.5Q = 6

          Q = 6 ÷ 1.5

              = 4

Therefore,

Optimal package size = 4 units

Hence,

Optimal package price:

= 0.5[8 - 2] × 4 + 2 × 4

= 12 + 8

= $20

Kyle and Alyssa paid $1,000 and $4,000 in qualifying expenses for their two daughters Jane and Jill, respectively, to attend the
denis-greek [22]

Answer: $3,500

Explanation:

The American Opportunity Tax Credit is a credit offered by the IRS for educational expenses paid on qualified students in their first 4 years of tertiary education.

The credit offered stands at a 100% of the first $2,000 paid per student. Afterwards this drops to 25% for the next $2,000.

To be able to claim the full credit however, some income conditions must be met. The most relevant to this question is that your Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) should be $80,000 or less if filing singularly or $160,000 or less if jointly signing as a married couple.

That means that Kyle and Alyssa qualified for 100% of this credit.

They get to claim $1,000 on Jane.

For Jill they get to claim the first $2,000 and then 25% of the next $2,000,

= 25% * 2,000

= $500

= 500 + 2,000

= $2,500

They get to claim $2,500 on Jill.

Total of $3,500 for both Jane and Jill.
