I'd say True because when planning you have to be organized about it
c. demand for that good is more elastic than if you spent a smaller portion of your income on the good.
Demand elasticity is the change in demand as the price changes - aka price has a big effect on demand.
Think about if the cost of a candy bar doubles from $1 to $2. This is a big increase but $2 isn't a huge portion of your income so it isn't a huge deal and you will probably keep buying. Now imagine if your car payment doubles from $350 to $700. Because this is such a big portion of your income, you will probably look to trade it in for a cheaper car.
Answer:
If we assume that the company does not have any required rate of return or discount rate associated to the lease payments, then the company should lease the equipment because the differential revenue will be higher ($214,200 ˃ $207,000).
Explanation:
the differential revenue if the equipment is leased:
total lease payments - associated costs = $290,000 - $75,800 = $214,200
the differential revenue if the equipment is sold:
selling price - sales commission = $230,000 - $23,000 = $207,000
If we assume that the company does not have any required rate of return or discount rate associated to the lease payments, then the company should lease the equipment because the differential revenue will be higher. The problem is that in the real world this never happens since the company should discount the lease payments since one dollar today is worth more than one dollar tomorrow. Since we are not given any discount rate, we must assume it is 0.
Answer:
Murphy Company
The year in which Murphy recognizes the income is year 2.
Explanation:
As a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company reports income and deductions in the year that they are actually paid or received. Similarly, as a cash basis taxpayer, Murphy Company deducts expenses in the year the expenses are paid off, which is not necessarily the year they were incurred. The income for services of $9,000 rendered to a customer, for which payment was received on January 3, year 2, will be recognized in year 2 and not in year 1 when the services were performed.
