Business

Goshia [24]3 years ago

The answer is 9%. According to the CBO, defense expenditure grew 9% yearly on average from fiscal year 2000-2009. Much of the costs for the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan have not been subsidized through regular arrogations bills, but over emergency supplemental appropriations bills.

In order to improve the cash flow of the company, neal emerald decided to postpone depositing all employment taxes a few months
jok3333 [9.3K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

No, it is not ethical.

The risks that Emerald faces by not upholding his responsibility for the collection and payment of employment taxes is that, first of all, this is not correct. He has an obligation, a moral and a fiscal obligation to report on time the employment taxes. That is why his actions are not ethical although he indeed does pay before he gets caught. That decision could be a business decision to buy some time and trying t fix other problems, but a true leader does not need to cover things with wrongdoings. What can of example is he showing to his employees?

Later on, on another occasion, he won't have the moral authority to demand ethical behavior from his employees. He is not setting an example.

Workco must have the following number of workers available during the next three months: month 1, 20; month 2, 16; month 3, 25.
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Total least possibe cost in three months is $4.800 + $2.800 + $4.000 = $11.600

Explanation:

Let us assume that Workco does not have the option to have less number of workers than 20, 16 & 25 in the first, second and third months respectively.

Month 1 : Since there are zero workers at the start, the cost of First month can easily be calculated as cost of hiring 20 workers and salary of 20 workers i.e (20*100)+(20*140) = $4800

Month 2 : Since number of workers required is less than month 1, workco has the option of firing maximum of 4 workers to bring down number of workers to 16. The decision of whether to fire the workers depend on 2 factors :

a) Cost of firing + Cost of hiring - If we see, cost of firing + hiring is ($50 + $100) = $150 which is greater than the salary of worker of $140/month

b) Number of workers required in 3rd Month - It is important to note that the number of workers needed in 3rd month is the highest i.e more than the 1st month also which effectively means that we will have to rehire all the workers fired in month two and then hire 5 more workers (Difference between number of workers in 1st and 3rd month).

Since cost of hiring + firing is more than the salary, it makes sense to not fire any worker in month 2.

Considering the above points, cost in month two is 20*140 = $2800

Month 3 : Nom of workers at the end of month two is 20 and requirement is 25. So Workco will have to hire 5 more workers costing him (5*100)=$500 and then pay salary to 25 workers (25*140)= $3500 taking the total cost in month 3 to $500 + $3500 = $4000

So, total least possibe cost in three months is $4800 + $2800 + $4000 = $11600

This is the story of Goodies Gift Shop in its third year of operation in Small Town USA. Amelia Goodies, the owner, runs the sho
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

1. Her return on investment is 20%

2. $40,000

Explanation:

1. We have Return on Investment = Net income from the Investment / The invested amount.

The net income is clearly stated in the Question which is the after-tax profit at $20,000.

The invested amount of Amelia is the amount she invested in Goodies Gift Shop which is illustrated as net worth ( owner's equity) at $100,000 in the Balance Sheet (Year 2).

As we have Return on Investment =  20,000/100,000 = 20%

2. We have the projected pre-tax profit = Projected margin - total overhead = 250K - 200K = $50,000

   The after-tax profit = pre-tax profit x (1- tax rate) = 50K x (1-20%) = $40,000
