Answer:

Dear U.S. president

As an economist, I personally agree with raising the minimum wage, 7 dollars an hour is very low, and does not reflect gains in worker's productivity.

However, raising it to 15 dollars an hour could be too high, since it would be higher than the minimum wage of the state of California, which is currently 14 dollars an hour, and California is one of the states with the highest cost of living.

For this reason, I propose raising the minimum wage to 10 dollars an hour, a moderate solution. This is a level that reflects workers' productivity better, at the time that protects many sectors of the economy from having to lay off workers due to a hike in labor costs.

Sincerely, random economist.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

$9,744

Explanation:

In the case of the annual  IRS depreciation deduction, the time period for each category assets are different. Like for commercial real estate, the time period is 39 years, for residential real estate, it would be 27.5 years.

The computation is shown below:

= (Purchase value of professional office center × remaining percentage) ÷ (applicable time period)

= ($475,000 × 80%) ÷ (39 years)

= ($380,000) ÷ (39 years)

= $9,744

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Dr Cash     $3,100,000

Cr Bonds payable            $3,100,000

Explanation:

Since the bonds were issued at face value of $1000 each,the cash proceeds received from the entire issue of 3,100 bonds can be computed thus:

Cash proceeds=$1000*3,100=$3,100,000

The cash proceeds imply that cash inflows have increased by $3,100,000, as a result cash account should be debited with $3,100,00o while the same amount is credited to bonds payable since an increase in  debt obligation should be a credit entry.

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

out-of-pocket

Explanation:

In Accounting, costing is the measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.

Cost pool is simply the amount of money spent by a firm on a particular activity.

Generally, an activity-based costing uses numerous cost pools such as manufacturing cost or customer services and numerous cost drivers such as direct labor hours worked, number of changes used in engineering department, etc.

Generally, an out-of-pocket cost requires that an individual or business outlay their future cash-flow and it must be relevant for current and future decision making.
