Answer: Decrease your take-home pay and decrease your federal income taxes in the current year. A 401k allows you to deduct earnings from your current income, and put that money in an account that cannot be opened until around retirement. The money put into a 401k, and the returns earned on that money through interest or investments, is not taxed as income until you take it out after retirement. This means that, when you put some of your earnings in a 401k, your take-home pay is lower for that year (you can't spend that money) and your income tax is reduced. 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Explanation:
If overhead is applied using traditional costing based on direct labor hours, the overhead application rate is:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
<u>For example:</u>
Total estimated overhead= $150,000
Allocation base= direct labor hours
Estimated Total number of direct labor hours= 10,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 150,000/10,000
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $15 per direct labor hour
 
        
             
        
        
        
Answer:
PV= $9,355.78
Explanation:
Giving the following information: 
If $ 9,000 is invested in a certain business at the start of the year, the investor will receive $ 2,700 at the end of each of the next four years.
Interest rate= 6%.
First, we need to find the final value
FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i
A= payment
FV= {2,700*[(1.06^4)-1]}/0.06= 11,811.46
Now, we calculate the present value:
PV= FV/(1+i)^n
PV= 11,811.46/1.06^4= $9,355.78
 
        
             
        
        
        
I'm am pretty sure the answer is b.
        
             
        
        
        
System revolving around the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. 
An economic system encompasses all of the production, distribution, and consumption within a society of goods and services. This definition is the most inclusive and holistic, whereas the other definitions describe part of an economic system, or another aspect of our socio-political and economic structures.
