Answer:

From number of month to be 9, training would be cheaper in gym A than in gym B.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of months when option containing gym A becomes cheaper than option of gym B, we first need to form cost equations for both and equate them.

Let x be the number of months.

The cost of gym A is = 40 + 15x

The cost of gym B = 20x

40 + 15x = 20x

40 = 20x - 15x

40 = 5x

x = 40/5

x = 8

So, the cost for both options will be equal when the number of months is 8. From number of month to be 9, training would be cheaper in gym A than in gym B.

A rich donor gives a hospital $100,000 one year from today. Each year after that, the hospital will receive a payment 5% larger
wariber [46]

Answer:

D) $779,843.27

Explanation:

The present value of this donation = Donation in Year 1/(1+ discount rate)^9 + Donation in Year 2/(1+ discount rate)^8 + ….. + Donation in Year 2/(1+ discount rate)^1

= $100,000/(1+9%) + $100,000*(1+5%)/(1+9%)^2 +$100,000*(1+5%)^2/(1+9%)^3…. +$100,000*(1+5%)^9/(1+9%)^10 = $779,843.27

Or we can easily input in excel and generate NPV as file attached; in which the formula is NPV(discount rate, cash inflow year 1 : cash inflow year 10) = (9%, 100000,100000*(1+5%)….,100000*(1+5%)^9) = $779,843.27

Radda [10]

Answer:

The total payroll tax expenses is   $3139.5

See the prepared journal in the explanation below.

Explanation:

Before it is presented on a general journal, the calculation is done below;

1. Payroll tax expenses:

FICA Social Security taxes = 6.2% * 2300 * 10

                                             = 0.062 * 2300 * 10

                                            = $1,426

FICA Medicare taxes  =  1.45% * 2300 * 10

                                    = 0.0145 * 2300 * 10

                                    = $333.5

FUTA taxes  =  0.6% * 2300 * 10

                      = 0.006 * 2300 * 10

                    =$138

SUTA taxes = 5.4% * 2300 * 10

                    = 0.054 * 2300 *10

                    = $1242

Total payroll tax expenses = $1,426 + $333.5 + $138 + $1242

                                             = $3139.5

Date         General Journal                             Debit            Credit

Jan. 31      Payroll tax expense                       $3139.5
