Explanation:

When the percentage of tax on the taxable income increases with the increase in the income of a person, it is called as the Progressive Tax. Its name suggests that as the income progresses, the tax also progresses. More the income, more the tax and vice versa. There are three main types of taxes, one is Proportional Tax, other is Progressive and the last one is Regressive tax. Out of these three, this progressive tax is the one which increases with the increase in the taxable income of the taxpayer.

Only one commercial bank in the banking system has an excess reserve, and its excess reserve is $400,000. This bank makes a new

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

money supply will increase by 2,400,000

Explanation:

the expansion f the money supply will be:

the money multiplier will be:

1/reserve ratio = 1/0.125 = 8

300,000 x 8 = 2,400,000

The reasoning for the multiplier effect is the following:

once the money is received, it will be used, and the person who receive the cash will deposit their proceeds.

This amount, can generate a new loan for, the remainder after subtracting the required reserve.

300,000 - 12.5% = 262,500

And this, once used will also end in a deposit. This opens the posibility for another loan, after reducing the reserve

262,500 - 12.5% = 229,687.5‬

This can be reapeat again and again and the limit for this is the formula state above:

multiplier effect = 1/reserve ratio

Alla [95]

Answer:

Check Explanation.

Explanation:

Note that the amount are in millions(dollar).

Year one: the sales of Mini Mochi Munch = $ 8.8 million = 8.8, sales of other products = $ 1.7 million. Hence, the gross profit = (8.8 × 38%) + (8.8 × 23%) = 5.368.

The selling, general and administrative expenses = 4.9 and the depreciation is zero.

Then, the EBIT = the gross profit -selling, general and administrative expenses - Depreciation.

EBIT = 5.368 - 4.9 - 0 = 0.468.

Less income tax at 38% = 0.17784.

incremental earnings= EBIT - Less income tax at 38%.

incremental earnings = 0.468 - 0.17784.

Year two: the sales of Mini Mochi Munch = $ 6.8 million = 6.8, sales of other products = $ 1.7 million. Hence, the gross profit = (6.8 × 38%) + (6.8 × 23%) = 4.148.

The selling, general and administrative expenses = 0, and the depreciation is zero(0).

Then, the EBIT = the gross profit -selling, general and administrative expenses - Depreciation.

EBIT = 4.148 - 4.9 - 0 = −0.752.

Less income tax at 38% = −0.28576.

incremental earnings= EBIT - Less income tax at 38%.

incremental earnings = −0.752 - −0.28576 = −1.03776.
