Answer:

The correct answer is A. A secondary effect of an increase on yacht tax rates would be the laying off of hundreds of poor and middle-class yacht makers as the wealthy spend their money elsewhere.

Explanation:

The tax increase of a certain product necessarily increases the final price of that product, that is, when the tax rate is raised, the amount of money necessary to buy said good rises.

In turn, according to the law of demand, the higher the price, the lower the quantity demanded of the product. In other words, this tax increase would produce a drop in the demand for yachts.

If demand falls, the income of producers and sellers of the product falls. This is where production is affected, since small and medium producers will have greater difficulties to cope with the drop in sales, often incurring losses that would lead to having to close the business.

If Bob and Judy combine their savings of $1,260 and $975, respectively, and deposit this amount into an account that pays 2% ann
Andrew [12]

Answer:

The account balance after 4 years will be $2,420.

Explanation:

First we need to add Bob and Judy's amount to find the total amount that will be deposited. (1260+975)=2,235.

Now we will break up the annual interest into monthly interest because it will be compounded monthly. 2/12=0.166.

Then we will break up the 4 years into months also because the interest is compounded monthly. 4*12=48

Now we use the formula for compound interest

Final amount = Principal*(1+R)^N

Principal = 2,235

R= 0.166% or 0.00166

N= 48

We put these values into our formula

2,235*(1+0.00166)^48

=2,420

svp [43]

Answer:

The amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 5 is $5,200.

Explanation:

Work in process, April 30 = Balance + Direct material + Direct labor + Factory overhead - Cost of finished goods

                                            = $4,000 + 24,000 + 16,000 + 12,800 - 48,000

                                             = $8,800

Job No 5 = Work in process, April 30 = $8,800

Job No 5 = Direct material + Direct labor + Factory overhead

$8,800 = Direct material + $2,000 + $1,600 ($2,000 * 80%)

Direct material = $8,800 - $2,000 - $1,600

                         = $5,200

Therefore, The amount of direct materials charged to Job No. 5 is $5,200.

miskamm [114]

Answer:

Direct Materials = 340,000

Direct Labor       = 304,000

Explanation:

The concept of equivalent units measures the number of units to the extend of completion  of inputs added to outputs during the production.

The first step is to determine the units completed and transferred.

units completed and transferred = opening work in process + started during the year - closing work in process

                                                      = 90,000 + 250,000 - 60,000

                                                      = 280,000

then determine the equivalent units of production with respect to direct materials and conversion costs.

<u>Direct Materials</u>

Note : Materials are added in the beginning of the process thus 100 % in all categories.

units completed and transferred (280,000 × 100%) = 280,000

units of closing work in process (60,000 × 100%)    =   60,000

Total                                                                             =  340,000

<u>Conversion Cost</u>

units completed and transferred (280,000 × 100%) = 280,000

units of closing work in process (60,000 × 40%)    =     24,000

Total                                                                             =  304,000
