upon gives the customer 30% off of their purchase. Suppose they let a customer use both coupons and choose which coupon gets applied first. For this context, ignore sales tax.
Let f be the function that inputs a cost (in dollars) and outputs the cost after applying the "$15 off" coupon, and let g be the function that inputs a cost (in dollars) and outputs the cost after applying the "35% off" coupon.
a. Suppose acustomerwants to purchase asi 40 item and apply the si 5 of coupon first, and then the 35% or coupon How much will the item cost after applying the coupons?
b. Suppose a customer wants to purchase a S 140 item and apply the SI 5 off coupon first, and then the 35% or coupon Ure ction notation to represent how much the item will cost (dollars) after applying the coupons.

Answer:

16.25;

g(f(x)) ;

76 ;

f(g(x))

Explanation:

For 15 off

f(x) = x - 15

For 35% off

g(x) = (1 - 0.35)x = 0.65x

g(x) = 0.65x

A.)

For the $15 off coupon :

f(x) = x - 15

f(x) 40 - 15 = 25

For the 35% coupon :

g(x) = (1-0.35)x

g(x) = 0.65(25)

g(x) = 16.25

B.)

Applying $15 off first, then 35%

Here, g is a function of f(x)

g(f(x))

Here g(x) takes in the result of f(x) ;

For the $140 off coupon :

f(x) = x - 15

f(140) = 140 - 15 = 125

For the 35% coupon :

g(125) = (1-0.35)x

g(124) = 0.65(125) = $81.25

C.)

x = 140

g(x) = 0.65x

g(140) = 0.65(140)

g(140) = 91

f(x) = x - 15

f(91) = 91 - 15

f(91) = 76

D.)

Here, F is a function of g(x)

f(g(x))

f(x) = (0.65*140) - 15

Calculation of Minimum lease annual payments from (MLP)    

Year  MLP from lessor       Present value                   Present valur of

                  point of view    factor 8%                    cash flows

1                  $4,703                  1 /(1.08)=0925   $4,350.28

2                    $4,703                  1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 2=0.857 $4,030.47

3                   $4,703               1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 3=0.793  $3,729.48

4                 $4,703               1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 4=0.735  $3,456.71

5                   $4,703              1 /(1.08)^{\wedge} 5=0.680  $3,198.04

   

Total of Minimum

lease Payments  $23,515                                       $ 18,764.97

Add    

Unguaranteed

residual value(ugrv)  4000  1 /(1.08)^{\wedge 5}=0.680  $2,720.00

Asset to be recorded

in the books of lessor

(sum of mlp +ugrv)  $27,515                             $ 21,484.97

Here        

Gross Investment=$27515        

Lease receivable recorded in in the books of lessor(Phelps)(Mimum lease payments + Unguaranteed residual )value = $21484  $21,484      

Walsh (lessee) shoiuld be recorded the amount of present value of minimum lease payments + Guaranteed Residual value=$18764.97 as asset and liabilty            

b) In the books of phelps (lessor)        

2017.01.01  Lease Recievble from walsh ….Dr  $21,484      

                                 to Asset                              $21,484      

(Being Lease receivable recorded )        

In the books of Walsh (lessee)        

2017.01.01  Asset ac ……………Dr  $18,764        

         to Lease Liabilty(Lessor)               $18,764      

(Being the asset and liabilty recorded )                

2017.12.31  Depreciation ……Dr  3752        

                            to Asset                      3752        

(Beint Depreciation recorded charged during the year recorded 18764/5 provided for 5 years)

Here annual payment started from the at the beginning of year i.e annual lease payments start from 01.01.2018.

c)  If expected residual value of $4000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books. But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset I.e $18764+Present vlue of $4000     $18764+2720=21484

d)   If expected residual value of $3000 is guaranteed by walsh no changes will be made in classification of lease and there is no chages in asset recorded in Lessor books But changes will be made in the books of lessee as present value of guaranteed residual value should be added to asset    I.e $18764+Present vlue of $3000       $18764+$2040=$20804

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

$175,000

Explanation:

Depletion per Unit =$3500000 / 500000 = $7 per unit

25,000 units were sold during the year.

There are two ways of figuring depletion on mineral property.

1. Cost Depletion

2. Percentage Depletion

Generally, we must use the method that gives you the larger deduction.

Calculation of Cost Depletion:

Cost Depletion = Units Sold * Depletion Rate = 25,000 units * $7 per unit = 175,000

Calculation of Percentage Depletion:

Percentage Depletion = Gross Income from Property During the Year * Depletion Rate = 800,000 * 22% = 176,000

Percentage Depletion cannot be more than 50% of net taxable income from the property.

Percentage Limit = (Sales - Expenses ) * 50% = (800,000 - 500,000) * 50% = 300000*50% = 150,000

Thus Percentage Depletion is limited to $150,000

Thus, the deduction is $175,000 (Higher to Cost or Percentage Depletion)

Advice from most financial advisers states to spend no more than 28% of one's gross monthly income for one's mortgage payment, a
Lena [83]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For the maximum amount that spend each month on mortgage payment is

= Gross annual income ÷ total number of months in a year × mortgage payment percentage

= $39,600 ÷ 12 months × 28%

= $924

b. . For the maximum amount that spend each month on total credit obligatons

= Gross annual income ÷ total number of months in a year × mortgage payment percentage

= $39,600 ÷ 12 months × 36%

= $1,188

c. Now the maximum amount spend for all other debt is

For monthly mortgage

= $924 × 70%

= $646.8

And, for mortgage debt

= $1,188 × 70%

= $831.60
