Answer:

The answer is A) $2,000

Explanation:

According to the IRS Publication 525 (2018), Taxable and Nontaxable Income

<em>"</em><em><u>If you receive tangible personal property (other than cash, a gift certificate, or an equivalent item) as an award for length of service</u></em><em> or safety achievement, you generally can </em><em><u>exclude its value from your income</u></em><em>. However, the amount you can exclude is limited to your employer's cost and </em><em><u>can’t be more than $1,600</u></em><em> ($400 for awards that aren’t qualified plan awards) for all such awards you receive during the year. Your employer can tell you whether your award is a qualified plan award. Your employer must make the award as part of a meaningful presentation, under conditions and circumstances that don’t create a significant likelihood of it being disguised pay." </em>

Ed has to include the $2,000 he received as income but the $250 watch can be excluded.

daser333 [38]

Answer:

Price will increase by $277.58

Explanation:

Market rate of Interest of a zero coupon bond can be determined by following formula

Market Rate of Interest = [ ( F / P )^(1/30) ] - 1

4.25% = [ ( $5000 / P )^(1/30) ] - 1

0.0425 + 1 = ( $5000 / P )^1/30

( 1.0425 )^30 = (( $5000 / P )^1/30)^30

3.4856 = $5000 / P

P = $5,000 / 3.4856

P = $1,434.46

Now Calculate the change in Price

Change in price = $1,434.46 - $1,156.88 = $277.58

Price will increase by $277.58

Stolb23 [73]

Answer :

a) Economic Production Quantity = 1,612 monitors

b) Number of setups = 1.4

c) Total cost = $972.12 per year

Explanation :

As per the data given in the question,

a) Economic Production Quantity = sqrt((2 × annual demand × set up cost) ÷ carrying cost × (1 - daily demand ÷ daily production))

=sqrt((2 × 2,250 × $350) ÷ $0.80 × (1 - 35 ÷ 140))

= 1,620.19

= 1,621 monitors

b) Number of setups = Annual demand ÷ Economic production quantity

= 2,250 ÷ 1,621

= 1.3880

= 1.4

c) Formula of Total cost = Carrying cost + Annual setup cost

Carrying cost=(Economic production quantity ÷ 2) × Carrying cost × (1 - daily demand ÷ daily production)

= (1,612 ÷ 2)× $0.80 × (1 -35 ÷ 140)

= $486.30

Annual setup cost = (Annual demand ÷ Economic production quantity) × setup cost

= (2,250 ÷ 1,621) × $350

= $485.812

So, Total cost = $486.30 + $485.812

= $972.12 each year

We simply applied the above formulas
