Answer: $0

Explanation:

Life insurance proceeds are generally considered to be tax exempt in order to ease the burden on the bereaved which means that Jason does not have to report any gross income from receiving this insurance proceeds.

If Jason does not collect all the proceeds at once however, and leaves some or all of it with the insurance company to accumulate interest, he will have to pay taxes on that interest.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

When there is no change in the beginning and ending units of inventory i.e the  units sold are equal to the units produced,the income under variable and absorption costing remains the same which is the condition in the given question.

Explanation:

If we have 80,000 units produced and sold then the income under both methods will be the same.

Manta Ray Company

Income Statement Variable Costing

Sales                $40*80,000=  $ 3200,000

Variable Costs $ 31*80,000=  $ 2480,000

Contribution Margin  $ 720,000

Less Fixed Costs $  $712,800

Gross Profit $ 7200

Manta Ray Company

Income Statement Absorption Costing

Sales                $40*80,000=  $ 3200,000

Variable Costs $ 31*80,000=  $ 2480,000

Fixed Costs $  $712,800

Gross Profit $ 7200

When there is no change in the beginning and ending units of inventory i.e the  units sold are equal to the units produced,the income under variable and absorption costing remains the same which is the condition in the given question.

If there is an increase in the inventory units ( ie. production is less than the Sales) the fixed manufacturing overhead cost is released from inventory and deducted from variable income.

Similarly when the inventory units decrease  ( ie. production is more than the Sales)  the fixed manufacturing overhead cost is deferred from inventory and added to variable income.

An employee quits her job where she has a balance of $10,000 in her qualified plan. The balance was paid out directly to the emp
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

$8,000, and she has to complete 60 days

Explanation:

Whenever money has to be taken out of the first plan, then it is the requirement of IRA to complete the rollover within 60 days, also the amount to be withheld is 20% this is in the case where the amount is directly paid o the concerned participant. Then the person concerned for such payment has to keep 20%

Here in the instance Total amount = $10,000

20% of such = $2,000

Thus, amount received from the administrator = 80% = $10,000 \times 80% = $8,000

The monthly demand q for a monopolist firm's product in a certain market (measured in 1000s of units) is related to the price pe
Gnesinka [82]

Answer: (b) -3.08

Explanation:

The relationship between the demand(q), price per unit product(p) and the disposable income,yd is given by the expression below;

q= 20ln(7yd-2p).

From the expression above, the marginal demand,

∂ q/∂ p is the differential of the equation of relationship between the demand, price and disposable income.

This involves considering the demand,q as the dependent variable and the price per unit product,p as the independent variable and the disposable income,yd is considered constant.

Therefore ,

∂ q/∂ p= (-40)÷(7yd-2p)

By substitution of

yd =$3000÷1000= $3

and p= $4

∂ q/∂ p= (-40)÷((7×$3)-(2×$4))

∂ q/∂ p= -40÷13= 3.08

Please see the attachment for knowledge on how ∂ q/∂ p was obtained.

In the Income-Expenditures model, it is assumed that investment is independent of the level of (current) income. This is:
____ [38]

Answer:

I'm not sure what this question is about, but the concept of the income expenditures model and its components is the following:

In the income (or aggregate) expenditures model, its author (Keynes) established certain assumptions in order to analyze how the economy works as a whole. His assumptions included that investment, government spending and net exports were all independent from income level.

When the economy is at equilibrium, total expenditures (GDP) = income level = consumption + government + investment + net exports

Another important assumptions are:

  • marginal propensity to consume (MPC) + marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 1
  • consumption = autonomous consumption + [MPC x (total income level - taxes)]

Savings = investment increase when disposable income increases or real GDP increases.

This model is used to explain the relationship between labor and production levels, and how they are affected by the economy's total expenditures. By increasing expenditures, the demand for labor and products/services will increase.

<u />

<u>1. Calculate the price of the car in a year from now.</u>

This is add the 4% on the current price:

<u />

<u>2. Calculate the amount of money that must be put aside to have $20,800 in a year:</u>

<u />

Use the formula of monthly compound interest, with 6% annual interest

  • r = 6% / 12 = 0.06/12 = 0.05
  • P(1 + 0.005)¹² = $20,800
  • P = $20,800 / (1 + 0.005)¹² = $19,591.63
