<span>The highest risk portfolio would be one that is made up of 60% stocks, 30% mutual funds and 10% treasury bonds. A stock is when individuals hold shares or stocks in a company to help the financing but also receive financial benefits when the company does well. A mutual fund is an investment that many investors put money towards to invest in securities or stocks. A treasury bond is a fixed rate interest investment issued by the US Treasury. </span>

There is a lot of risks when investing in anything, because you pay a lot of money for something that may not be a wise idea, because in the end, you may lose a lot more than you get.

David Grange is married and claims 4 withholding allowances. If he is paid biweekly and earns $1,846 per period, use the percent

Trava [24]

Answer: $74.60

Explanation:

For people who are paid biweekly, 1 withholding allowance = $161.5

4 withholding allowances = $646

Earnings after deducting withholding allowance = $1,846 - $646

Earnings after deducting withholding allowance = $1,200

For a married person who is paid biweekly, the percentage applicable to David's pay bracket is 10% on the amount over the $454

That is, 10% on $746 ($1200 - $454)

=$74.60

pychu [463]

Answer:

Increase in income= $2,965.6

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Gruden Company produces golf discs which it normally sells to retailers for $7 each. The cost of manufacturing 23,600 golf discs is:

Materials $ 12,036

Labor 35,400

Variable overhead 23,128

Fixed overhead 47,200

Total $117,764

McGee Corporation offers Gruden $4.91 per disc for 4,930 discs. If Gruden accepts the offer, its fixed overhead will increase from $47,200 to $53,700 due to the purchase of a new imprinting machine.

Total variable cost= (12,036 + 35,400 + 23,128)= 70,564

Unitary variable cost= 70,564/23,600= $2.99

Increase in fixed costs= $6,500

Increase in income= (4930*4.91) - (4930*2.99) - 6500= $2,965.6

If you were to invest $3,500 in traditional IRA and a Roth IRA, after making adjustments for possible tax deductions, what would

patriot [66]

In a traditional IRA there is either an equal or near to equal contribution made by employer. So, if $3,500 is to be invested let's assume that another $3,500 to be invested by employer with a total contribution (of 3500+3500=7000) the net contribution would be the same as the total contribution, tax rate is not given. Let's assume tax assume tax slab of 28%. Traditional IRS-matching contribution from employer Net contribution-$3,500+3,500=7,000 Roth IRA Assumption-Tax bracket of 28% Net contribution= amount invested minus tax=$3500 minus (28% on 3500)= $3500- $980=$2520 Hence net contribution is not of taxes in case of Roth IRA Once the traditional IRA or Roth IRA is established, you decide to invest the proceeds in a mutual fund. Identify the type of mutual fund you would select.
