Explanation and answer:
If if the possible outcomes are xi, and the corresponding probability is pi, where i is one of the N events, then the expectation [E] is given by
[E] = sum (xi*pi)
In the given case, n= frequency of the event, N=50=total number of events
i n xi pi n*xi*pi
1 40 0 40/50 40*0*40/50 = 0
2 8 20 8/50 8*20/50 = 3.20
3 1 100 1/50 1*100/50 = 2.00
4 1 500 1/50 1*500/40= 10.00
Total (expected gross winning) = 15.20
Person has already paid $10,
so the expected net winning = 15.20 - 10 = 5.20
Answer:
$5,000= ending inventory
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Gross margin is normally 40% of sales.
Sales= $25,000
beginning inventory= $2,500
purchases= $17,500
First, we need to determine the cost of goods sold:
COGS= 25,000*0.6= 15,000
Now, using the following formula, we can calculate the ending inventory:
COGS= beginning inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending inventory
15,000= 2,500 + 17,500 - ending inventory
5,000= ending inventory

Answer:
regressive
Explanation:
A regressive tax is basically a tax whose rate increases as your income decreases. Generally you do not need to increase the marginal tax rate of lower income levels, all you need to do is have a flat tax that taxes everyone with the same amount. E.g. everyone pays $2,000 as income taxes. $2,000 per person represents 10% of the first household's income, but it only represents 2.7% of the fourth household's income.
On the other hand, progressive taxes increase as the income level of the taxpayers increases.
Answer:
b. increase expenses by $12,900
Explanation:
The final balance of Store Supplies were 19,350, but the actual year-end store supplies inventory were 6,450. That means that from all purchase 12,900 (19,350 – 6450) were used during the accountable year, therefore, those were expenses that should be recognized.
The adjusting entry is: Debit supplies expense for 12,900 and credit supplies for an equal amount.
