Margaret [11]

Answer:

$26,898.25

Explanation:

Jenna'a taxable ordinary income = $126,000 - $6,100 (standard deduction) - $3,900 (personal exemption) = $116,000

ordinary income taxes = $17,891.25 + [($116,000 - $87,850) x 28%] = $25,773.25

capital gains taxes = $7,500 x 15% = $1,125

total tax liability = $25,773.25 + $1,125 = $26,898.25

In a certain economy, the components of planned spending are given by:

viktelen [127]

Answer:

B) 790-700r

Explanation:

Aggregate Expenditure is the expenditure by all the sectors of economy. By Households = Consumption (C), By Firms = Investment (I), By government = Govt spending (G) & tax leakages (T), By Rest world = Next Exports (NX).

Autonomous Expenditure is the level of expenditure in economy, which doesn't depend on level of Income = Y.

AE = C + I + G + NX

[500 + 0.8 (Y-150) - 300r] + [200 - 400r] + 200 + 10

500 + 0.8Y - 120 - 300r + 200 - 400r + 210

500 - 120 + 200 + 210 - 300r - 400r + 0.8y

790 - 700r + 0.8y

As, it can be seen that the part of AE = '790 - 700r', excluding '0.8y' : is not dependent on Income Y. So, it is Autonomous Expenditure

Madison Corporation sells three products (M, N, and O) in the following mix: 3:1:2. Unit price and cost data are: M N O Unit sal

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

The answer is 629,000.

Explanation:

For each unit of M sold, the price is 7 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 4;

For each unit of N sold, the price is 4 and the cost is 2, so the contribution margin is 2;

For each unit of O sold, the price is 6 and the cost is 3, so the contribution margin is 3;
With the mix, 1 unit of sale contributes (contribution per mix) 3*M+1*N+2*O = 3*4+1*2+2*3 = 20

For covering the 340,000 of fixed costs, you have to sale 340,000/20 units. That's equal to 17,000 units.

Each unit of sales is equal to (price per mix) 7*M+4*N+6*O = 7*3+4*1+6*2 = 37. So, with 17,000 units, the total sales will be 17,000 * 37 = 629,000.

Part b

0.6 or 60 %

Part c

Break-even sales (units) = 8,000

Break-even sales (dollars) = $1,920,000

Part d

See attachment

Part e

Margin of safety in dollars = $960,000

Margin of safety in percentage = 33.3 %

Part f

Operating Leverage = 3.00

Explanation:

Income Statement :

Sales - Expenses = Income

Note : I have separated Variable and Fixed Expenses

Contribution Margin ratio :

Contribution Margin ratio = Contribution ÷ Sales

= $1,728,000 ÷ $2,880,000

= 0.6 or 60 %

Break-even sales ( units and dollars) :

Break-even sales (units) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution per unit

= $1,152,000 ÷ $144.00

= 8,000

Break-even sales (dollars) = Fixed Costs ÷ Contribution margin ratio

= $1,152,000 ÷ 0.60

= $1,920,000

Margin of safety in dollars and as a percentage of sales :

Margin of safety in dollars = Expected Sales (dollars) - Break-even sales (dollars)

= $2,880,000 - $1,920,000

= $960,000

Margin of safety in % = (Expected Sales - Break-even sales ) ÷ Expected Sales

= $960,000 ÷ $2,880,000

= 33.3 %

Operating leverage

Operating Leverage = Contribution ÷ Earnings Before Interest and Tax

= $1,728,000 ÷ $576,000

= 3.00

The answer would be the Doppler Radar

The Doppler Radar used some sort of microwave signal to analyze the motions that happened by checking how much the motion altered its frequency. Doppler Radar is most commonly used in weather forecast or meteorology unit
