Answer:

<h3>Cynthia and Dove Corporation</h3>

Any profits generated by Dove Corporation will be taxed to the corporation and also taxed to Cynthia as a shareholder whenever Dove distributes the profits as dividends. Taxing Dove and Cynthia creates a double taxation burden for both Dove and Cynthia. Dove Corporation does not get a tax deduction when it distributes dividends to Cynthia.  Furthermore, Cynthia cannot deduct any corporation loss when incurred.  These are unlike when the business was only a sole proprietorship.

mezya [45]

Answer:

under applied by $1,000.

Explanation:

The formula is shown below:

Predetermined overhead rate = (Total estimated manufacturing overhead) ÷ (estimated direct labor-hours)

= $101,998 ÷ 67,992 hours

= $1.50

Now we have to find the applied overhead which equal to

= Actual direct labor-hours × predetermined overhead rate

= 70,000 hours × $1.50

= $105,000

So, the ending overhead equals to

= Actual manufacturing overhead - actual overhead

= $106,000 - $105,000

= $1,000 under-applied

How much control does the government exert over businesses in a command economy, and what are some of the associated risks and d
siniylev [52]

The government has total control in a command economy, all production, investment, prices and incomes are determined by the government. A command economy is also known as a communist society because business owners do not have any control over their businesses. In a command economy, there are risks/disadvantages of running operations this way because there is a lack of competition and efficiency. When the government controls everything, there is less competition because pricing is set by the government. There is also less efficiency due to them waiting on the government to make their decisions.
