Answer:

$523,800

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Cost price by buyer = $525000

Selling price by seller = $485000

Sales tax = 8%

Unknown:

The lowest selling price by the seller = ?

Solution:

To solve this business problem, we must understand that the price the seller would be will to part with will be his selling price and the percentage of sales tax incurred in the procurement.

This will be the minimum and least profitable estimated amount the seller is willing to sell at.

   Lowest selling price = selling price by seller + amount of sales tax incurred

Sales tax amount = selling price x sales tax percentage

                             = $485000 x \frac{8}{100}

                              = $38800

Lowest selling price = $485000 + $38800 = $523,800

George bought a car for $26,500. he made no down-payment and financed the entire amount on a 5-year term with a monthly payment
pentagon [3]
Given:
Principal, P = 26500
term=5 years
Monthly payment, A = 695

Question: Find interest rate

Solution:
Unless there is a table available, there is no explicit formula to calculate interest.  However, the interest rate can be solved for using the formula to calculate the monthly payment, as follows.

A=\frac{P(i*(1+i)^{n})}{(1+i)^{n}-1}
Substituting 
P=26500
i=monthly interest rate to be found
A=monthly payment=695
n=5*12=60 months
A=\frac{26500(i*(1+i)^{60})}{(1+i)^{60}-1}
Rearrange to give successive estimates of i by
I(i)=(695/26500)*((1+i)^60-1)/(1+i)^60
Try initial estimate of i=0.02  (2% per month)
I(0.02)=0.0182
I(0.0182)=0.01736
I(0.01736)=0.01689
....
Eventually we get the value to stabilize at i=0.016265, or
Monthly interest = 1.6265% (to four decimal places)

Which of the following is not a goal of federal economic policy? full employment growth a high savings rate Keynesian economics
Ivan

Answer:

high savings rate

Explanation:

High savings rate is not a goal of federal economic policy. The goal of federal economic policy is to achieve full employment, economic growth and stable prices.

However 'high savings rate' is achieved when interest rates are increased in order to fight inflation and achieve 'stable prices' because people keep their money in the banks to take advantage of the benefit of earning interest BUT this is not always the case because 'higher interest rates' works against full employment by making it too costly for firms to borrow for investments which will definitely create jobs.

Alex_Xolod [135]

The journal entry required to close the Drawing account is debit to Income Summary account and a credit to Drawing account.

Option a) is correct.

<h2>What is  Income Summary account ?</h2>

An income summary is a temporary account that is used to net the closing entries from all the revenue and expense accounts at the conclusion of the accounting quarter. The final balance is regarded as a gain or loss. The company made a profit for that year if the net balance of the income summary is a credit balance, and a loss for that year if the net balance is a debit balance.

It lists all earnings and costs related to both operational and non-operating operations. It is also known as a revenue and expense summary as a result.

Lisa [10]

Answer:

   To Accumulated Amortization- Leasehold improvements $11,500

(Being the expenses for the first year is recorded)

Explanation:

The journal entry is as follows

Amortization expense $11,500

   To Accumulated Amortization- Leasehold improvements $11,500

(Being the expenses for the first year is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

= Incurred expenses ÷ remaining life

= $23,000 ÷ 2

= $11,500

While recording this transaction we debited the amortization expense as the expenses account is increased while at the same time the accumulated amortization should be credited as it decreased the value of the asset
