<u>Explanation</u>:
“Oligopoly” is a market structure in which only some sellers offer similar or identical products. This means only small group of companies are dominating one specific segment of the market. In case any new company tries to enter the same segment, it is difficult for it get established as there are certain barriers created by the existing companies of that segment.

Answer:
Overhead= $3,212
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sigma Corporation applies overhead costs to jobs based on direct labor cost.
Job W, which is still in process at year-end, shows charges of $2,700 for direct materials and $4,400 for direct labor.
Job V:
$6,300 for direct materials.
$8,500 for direct labor.
$6,205 for overhead on its job cost sheet.
First, we need to calculate the overhead rate.
Overhead rate= 6205/8500= $0.73 per direct labor dollar
Job W:
Direct labor= 4,400
Overhead= 4,400*0.73= $3,212
Answer:
The double-exempt bond is the preferred investment because it has a higher after-tax return Tax benefit .
Explanation:
Calculatation of the after-tax return on both bonds
1)The double-exempt bond does not pay state or federal income taxes.
After-tax return =
Before-tax return = 4.9%
2)The tax-exempt bond is the state income taxes, but not federal in which the states can decide whether to tax their bonds or not.
Interest Income (100,000 * 5%) 5,000
Less: State taxes at 10% (5,000* 10%) (500)
Tax benefit from deduction of state taxes on federal return (500 * 35%) 175
After-tax Income 4,675
After-tax return = 4,675/100,000 = 4.675%
Therefore the double-exempt bond is the preferred investment because it has a higher after-tax return Tax benefit .
Hence the state income tax will be deductible on Juan’s federal tax return and Juan’s federal taxable income will be lower or lesser by $500 which will produces tax savings at his federal marginal tax rate of $500 * 35% = $175.
