The probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns is within $16 of the population mean is:
= 56%
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Population mean (preparation fee for 2017 federal income tax returns) = $273
Population standard deviation of preparation fees = $100
Mean price for a sample of 30 federal income tax returns = $257 (which is within $16 of the population mean)
z = (x-μ)/σ
z = standard score
x = observed value
μ = mean of the sample
σ = standard deviation of the sample
Z = ($273 - $257)/$100
= 0.16
Using the z-table
P = 0.5636
Answer:
$63,000
Explanation:
The computation of cases of cola were completed and transferred to Finished Goods Inventory during January is shown below:-
Completed and transferred to finished goods inventory is
= Case of cola as on Jan 1 work in process + completed & transferred out - ending work in process as on Jan 31
= $5,000 + $65,000 - $7,000
= $63,000
Hence, the number of cases of cola is $63,000
Answer:
The answer is 6.72%
Explanation:
Calculating the imputed rate from a discount bond as follows:
( 1 + i )^n = FV / PV
( 1 + i )^3 = FV / PV, here FV= 1000 and PV= 727.25
so putting values in equation we have:
( 1 +i )^3 = 1000 / 727.25
( 1 + i )^3 = 1.375
solving for i
( 1 + i) = 1.375^1/3
( 1 + i ) = 1.112
i = 0.112 before tax rate
0.112 * (1 - tax rate) = after tax interest rate
0.112 * .60 = 0.0672 = 6.72%
thus the expected after tax cost of this debt issue is 6.72%
Answer:
Option (a) is correct.
Explanation:
Given that,
Dividend pay in year 7, D7 = $2 per share
Growth rate of dividend, g = 2.2 percent per year
Required return, ke = 16 percent
Present value of the future dividend at year 6:
= D7 ÷ (ke - g)
= $2 ÷ (0.16 - 0.022)
= $14.49
Therefore, the present value of dividend now is as follows;
= Present value of the future dividend at year 6 × (1 + ke)^{-6}
= $14.49 × (1 + 0.16)^{-6}
= $5.95
