Answer:
When a taxpayer has an underpayment of estimated tax or fall behind on his/her tax prepayment, then he/she is required to pay a penalty on Form 2210. This penalty is called underpayment penalty.
According to the tax laws, Mr. P and Ms. S can avoid an underpayment penalty if their withholding's and estimated tax payments equal or exceed one of the following two safe harbors:
- 90 percent of current tax liability ($200,000 x 90% = $180,000)
- 110 percent of previous year tax liability (110% x $170,000 = $187,000)
From the above calculation, it is clear that Mr. P and Ms. S's withholding's ($175,000) do not equal or exceed the amount of two safe harbors. So, they need to increase their withholding's or make estimated payments to avoid underpayment penalty.
If Mr. P and Ms. S increase their withholding's by $5,000 or make estimated payments of $1,250
per quarter ($5000/4), they can avoid the underpayment penalty.
Mr. Paula and Simon average gross income is greater than $150,000, so 110% is taken.

As the options aren't given I define each concept
Answer: $54,000 per production run
Explanation:
As we are dealing with the decision of whether or not to process the good further, the irrelevant cost would be the cost of producing product B from input R.
This is because this cost has already been incurred to produce product B and so is a sunk cost. Sunk costs are irrelevant to the decision to process further.
30,000 units of B were made from 90,000 units R so the cost of B is:
= 30,000 / 50,000 * 90,000
= $54,000

Answer:
B. The difference between what was actually incurred and overhead applied.
Explanation:
This could be simply as the difference of what was actually incurred and overhead that was been applied or it could be the difference between the amount that would be absorbed into the cost/unit of the actual units of a certain commodity been produced, and the actual cost of the fixed overheads.
This could be seen in a certain number of labor hours taken to manufacture a an amount of product, as it may differ significantly from the standard or budgeted number of hours of the work been done.
Answer:
The total investment in the economy is $50 million
Explanation:
The following equation is used to calculate the GDP: GDP = C + I + G + (X – M) or GDP = private consumption + gross investment + government investment + government spending + (exports – imports)
Using this formula we can determine the amount of investment.
Investment = 500 (GDP) - 300 (private consumption) - 150 (government spending) = $50.
