Answer:

b. 23.8%

Explanation:

For computing the percentage difference, we have to compute the Pre-tax income of both corporations and the partnership

For corporations:

Pre-tax income = (1 - corporate tax rate) × (1 - personal tax rate)

                         = (1 - 0.34) × (1 - 0.30)

                         = 0.66 × 0.70

                         = 0.462 or 46.2%

For partnership:

Pre-tax income = (1 - personal tax rate)

                         =  (1 - 0.30)

                         = 0.70 or 70%

So, the difference would be

= 70% - 46.2%

= 23.8%

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The total cost of producing a given level of output is:____.

d. minimized when the ratio of marginal product to input price is equal for all inputs.

Explanation:

With the above situation, the marginal cost (input price) = the marginal revenue (marginal product).  The producer can then maximize profit if it can lower its average total cost per unit below the marginal cost for producing one additional unit of its product.  In all cost situations, it is better for the producer to have the total revenue exceeding the total costs, at all times, but more especially with increasing production.

In a period of rising prices, the inventory method which tends to give the highest cost of goods sold value is First In, First Out (FIFO). This is because the more recent costs represent the higher (rising) net income and a higher (rising) inventory valuation costs.

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

the inventory should be recorded at $8,500

Explanation:

As we know that according to GAAP, the inventory should be recorded at a cost or net realizable value whichever is lower

So as per the question

Historical cost is $12,000

And, the net realizable value is

= Expected selling price - expected selling cost

= $9,000 - $500

= $8,500

So, the lower cost is $8,500

Hence, the inventory should be recorded at $8,500
