Answer:

Variable cost per unit= $1.048

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Highest activity cost= $151,000

Highest activity units= 86,300

Lowest activity cost= $125,000

Lowest activity units= 61,500

<u>To calculate the variable cost under the high-low method, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)

Variable cost per unit=  (151,000 - 125,000) / (86,300 - 61,500)

Variable cost per unit= $1.048

Tony borrows $1300 at an annual interest rate of 6.0%. He receives the loan on the first day of the current month and will make
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Tony will pay interest of $6.50 as part of the first loan payment.

Explanation:

Amount of Loan = $1300

Annual Interest  = 6%

Monthly interest rate = 6% / 12 = 0.5%

Monthly Loan Payment = $57.62

Monthly installment is compromised of the interest payment on the due balance and the principal payment.

Interest payment in first installment = $1300 x 0.5%

Interest payment in first installment = $6.50

Principal portion of first installment = $57.62 - $6.50

Principal portion of first installment = $51.12

Suppose you invest $100,000 in a mutual fund for 10 years. The fund earns 6% pretax per year, makes no annual distributions (and
Setler [38]

Answer:

a) Fund         pre-tax Amount $  179,084.77

b) Funds       after-tax                     $  163,267.82

c) Dividends after-tax amount :     $  159,813.27

Explanation:

We calcuale the future value of the fund at 6% annual rate over a 10-years period:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 100,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.06000

100000 \: (1+ 0.06)^{10} = Amount

Amount 179,084.77

after taxes, as this were held for a longer period will be considered long term gain and taxes at 20%:

179,084.77 - 100,000 = 79,084.77 capital long-term gain subject to taxation

79,084.77 * (1-0.20) = 63,267.82

Now we add the 100,000: 163,267.82

Alternative scenario:

6% less 20% dividends tax after-tax return on dividends:

0.06 x (1 - 0.2) = 0.048

We calcualte the future value using this rate:

Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount

Principal 100,000.00

time 10.00

rate 0.04800

100000 \: (1+ 0.048)^{10} = Amount

Amount 159,813.27
