Answer:

It is not economically rational for Daniel to enroll in the course

Explanation:

Increase in income = $23,000 - $18,000 = $5,000

i = 10% = 0.1

NPV = -(18,000 + 1,000) + 5,000/(1.1)^1 + 5,000/(1.1)^2 + 5,000/(1.1)^3

NPV = -17,000 + (4545.45 + 4132.22 + 3756.74)

NPV = -17,000 + 12,434.41

NPV = -4,565.59

Conclusion: Since NPV is Negative. Therefore, it is not economically rational. So the answer is NO.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

a) Is Santhosh required to increase his withholding or make estimated tax payments this year to avoid the underpayment penalty?

  • No he is not required to make any payments or increase his withholdings because this year's withholdings already represent a 133% increase with respect to last year's tax liability. If the withholdings for the current are over 100% last year's tax liability, then the taxpayer doesn't need to make any further adjustments in order to avoid underpayment penalties.

b) By how much, if any, must Santhosh increase his withholding and/or estimated tax payments for the year to avoid underpayment penalties?

Units transferred out                       37,500 EUP                 37,500 EUP

<u>Units of ending work in process      2,000 EUP                    1,200 EUP</u>

<u>Equivalent units of production          39,500 EUP                38,700 EUP</u>

<u>Total costs                                       $454,250                   $239,940 </u>

<u />

Costs per EUP

                                                Direct Materials           Conversion

                                $454,250/ 39,500 EUP         $239,940/38,700 EUP

                                     =  $ 11.5 per EUP                        = $6.2 per  EUP

Dividing the costs with EUP gives cost per EUP.

Costs Accounted For

Units Transferred Out $ 663750

Materials = $ 11.5 * 37500=$  431250

Conversion= $ 6.2 * 37500=$ 232500

Total = $ 663750

Work In Process Ending $ 30440

Materials = $ 11.5 * 2000=$  23000

Conversion= $ 6.2 * 1200=$ 7440

Total = $ 30440

Now adding the costs of Transferred out units and the ending work in process inventory equals the total of the costs added.

$ 663750+$ 30440 = $454,250 + $239,940

$ 694190 = $ 694190

explain the difference between a change in quantity demanded and a change in demand. Provide a real world example of a factor th
Zina [86]

Answer:

A change in quantity demanded is caused by a change in price only. That is, when price rises quantity demanded falls vise versa

A change in demand occurs when there is a shift in the demand caused by a change in other determinates of demand other than price such as change in income, change in taste and fashion, demographic changes etc.

Explanation:

Real word example of change in demand :

Changing Tastes or Preferences

From 1990 to 2020, the per-person consumption of chicken by Americans rose from 48 pounds per year to 85 pounds per year, and consumption of beef fell from 77 pounds per year to 54 pounds per year, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Changes like these are largely due to movements in taste, which change the quantity of a good demanded at every price: that is, they shift the demand curve for that good, rightward for chicken and leftward for beef.

Simply put it this way> Change in quantity demanded : Price change, quantity demanded change

Change in Demand: Price doesn't change but quantity demanded changes as a result of change in other determinates of demand examples the change in preference
