Answer: (E) none of the other choices

Explanation:

None of the options are correct in the above question.

The USA extends Most Favoured Nation Status to most countries in the world including Germany so that would not be a reason for the car's not to pass through customs.

The cars could indeed be a threat to national security. Just because they come from a safe country does not mean that they were not tampered with. They need to be properly inspected.

They are indeed a source of competition for US automakers but that would be no reason to stop them. Perhaps tariffs could be applied on them but they will not be stopped.

There is no provision in US Customs practices that prohibits the importation of used cars solely because they are used cars therefore it will not be a reason to halt the car's going through customs.

None of the options are therefore correct.

Mattel Inc.’s 2016 financial statements show operating profit before interest and tax of $519,233 thousand, net income of $318,0
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

22.38%

Explanation:

Given that,

Operating profit before interest and tax = $519,233

Net income = $318,022 thousand

Provision for income taxes = $91,720 thousand

Net non-operating expense before tax = $109,491 thousand

Mattel’s statutory tax rate for 2016 = 37%

Income before income tax:

= Net Income + Provision for income taxes

= $318,022 Thousand + $91,720 Thousand

= $409,742 Thousand

Effective tax rate:

= (Provision for Income taxes ÷ Income before tax) × 100

= ($91,720 Thousand ÷ $409,742 Thousand) × 100

= 0.2238 × 100

= 22.38%

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The $ 4 per machine hour is the contribution margin per machine hour for the Lowell​ Lamp.

Explanation:

Since in the question two lamps : Bed-ford lamp and Lowell lamp information is given .

Based on the information mentioned in the question, First we have to calculate the contribution margin per unit. Than we are able to calculate contribution margin per hour.

The computation for Lowell Lamp is given below

The contribution margin per unit = Sales per unit - variable cost per unit

                                                      = $38 - $22

                                                      = $16 per unit

Since, contribution margin per unit is  $16 per unit. So, now we calculate contribution margin per machine hour  which is equals to

Contribution margin ÷ machine hours for Lowell lamp

$16 per unit ÷ 4

= $ 4 per machine hour

Thus, the $ 4 per machine hour is the contribution margin per machine hour for the Lowell​ Lamp.

nydimaria [60]

If labor costs are 60 percent of production costs, then a 15 percent increase in wage rates would increase production costs by <u>9 percent.</u>

<h3>What are labor costs?</h3>

  • While indirect costs are related to labor costs, such as personnel who maintain industrial equipment, direct costs include wages for the employees who make a product, including those on an assembly line.
  • While indirect costs are related to support labor, such as personnel who maintain industrial equipment, direct costs include wages for the employees who make a product, including those on an assembly line.
  • The price of goods or services may fluctuate away from their genuine cost if labor costs are poorly allocated or evaluated, which could hurt earnings.
