A company purchases merchandise with a catalog price of $30,000. The company receives a 40% trade discount from the seller. The

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

$17,820

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Catalog price of the merchandise = $30,000

Trade discount received = 40%

The amount of discount received = 40% of $30,000

= 0.4 × $30,000

= $12,000

Therefore,

Cost of Merchandise = Catalog price - Discount

= $30,000 - $12,000

= $18,000

also,

credit terms = 1/10, n/30

since, the payment was made within the discount period

1% of discount will be provided

thus,

amount of discount = 1% of cost of merchandise

= 0.01 × $18,000

= $180

hence,

Net cost of the merchandise

= Cost of merchandise - Discount on credit terms

= $18,000 - $180

= $17,820

Explanation:

Nigeria is the most populous black nation on earth and attracts a lot of tourist as well as investors at every point in time. During the 1970's, there was migration of people from other west African countries due to the economic stabilty and increasing economic expansion, thus making Nigeria a place to search for greener pasture within the continent. In the 1980's, there was an economic downturn that hit the country so hard that Nigerians started calling for the exit of fellow african nationals in the country. Most affected country then was Ghana and there was a slogan with tthe phrase 'Ghana-must-go'.

The phrase went on to become the name of the bags with which Ghanians left tthe country with.

N.B: look up Ghana-must-go bags on google.

Cheers.

natita [175]

Given:

Commission income = $180,000

Medical insurance = $10,000

Salary expense = $40,000

Medical insurance premium paid for himself = $7,000

Office rental expense = $30,000

Medical expenses paid for himself = 5,000

Computation of business income:

Business income = Total revenue - Total expenses

Business income = $180,000 - ($10,000 - $40,000 - $30,000)

Business income = $180,000 - $80,000

Business income = $100,000

Note: Self-incurred expenses are not included in business expenses.

Computation of AGI:

AGI = Business income - Deduction from schedule c

AGI = $100,000 - Medical insurance premium paid for himself

AGI = $100,000 - $7,000

AGI = $93,000

Therefore, option "B" is the correct answer to the following question.
