Answer:

Company ABC and Emily, a single filing taxpayer

The maximum amount excludable from Emily's gross income for the dependent care expenses, which Emily can report on her tax return is $3,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations for Emily:

Dependent care flexible spending arrangement deduction = $4,500

Fair market value of the on-site dependent care used = $700

Form W-2 reported dependent care assistance = $5,200

Maximum amount excludable from Emily's gross income for the dependent care expenses Emily can report on her tax return is $3,000.

b) According to the IRS records, Emily can exclude or deduct dependent care benefits provided by a dependent care benefit plan, an amount not exceeding $3,000 if one qualifying person was cared for or $6,000 if two or more qualifying persons were cared for.  Since the number of persons cared for is not disclosed, it is assumed that Emily cared for only one qualifying person.  Therefore, $3,000 is the maximum she is allowed to deduct.

Achieving high product quality lowers operating costs because of the effect of quality on:___________.
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Option C, corporate-level planning, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Option C, “corporate-level planning” is the correct answer because it is the corporate planning according to which every employee has to work. If the quality of planning is good then the firm will produce higher output with lower operating cost and if the planning is not good or suitable then the firm can increase the productivity but operating cost may go very high. Therefore, option C is right.

Growth of GDP = (DGP of Current/recent period - GDP of Prior period) / DGP of Prior period

In this question prior period is quarter 10 and current /recent period is quarter 11.

So, formula will be

Growth of GDP = (DGP of quarter 11 - GDP of quarter 10) / GDP of quarter 10

As we need to calculate the real GDP growth the formula will be as follow

Growth of real GDP = (Real DGP of quarter 11 - Real GDP of quarter 10) / Real GDP of quarter 10

Growth of real GDP = ($5,252 billion - $4,954 billion) / $4,954 billion

Growth of real GDP = $298 billion / $4,954 billion

Growth of real GDP = 6.02% = 6%

Perez Company reported the following data regarding the product it sells: Sales price $ 56 Contribution margin ratio 25 % Fixed
suter [353]

Answer:

Contribution margin ratio = 1 - variable cost ratio

                                          = 25%

(a) Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{fixed\ costs}{contribution\ margin}

Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{350,000}{0.25}

                                            = 1,400,000

 Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{Break\ even\ in\ dollars}{sales\ price}

 Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{1,400,000}{56}

                                           = 25,000

(b) For profit of $42,000,

sales=\frac{Profit+fixed\ cost}{contribution\ margin\ ratio}

sales=\frac{42,000+350,000}{0.25}

               = 1,568,000

In\ units=\frac{sales}{sales\ price}

In\ units=\frac{1,568,000}{56}

                    = 28,000

(c) variable cost = sales price × variable cost ratio

                           = $56 × 75%

                           = $42

New contribution margin = \frac{New\ sales\ price-variable\ cost}{New\ sales\ price}

New contribution margin = \frac{70-42}{70}

                                          = 0.4

                                          = 40%

New\ Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{fixed\ costs}{contribution\ margin}

New\ Break\ even\ in\ dollars=\frac{350,000}{0.4}

                                                        = $875,000

New\ Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{New\ Break\ even\ in\ dollars}{New\ sales\ price}

New\ Break\ even\ in\ units=\frac{875,000}{70}

                                                    = 12,500

elixir [45]

Answer:

The amount of raw materials transferred to work in process is $98,000.

Explanation:

Given that, at the beginning of its business operations, Fortune Company had a raw material inventory of $ 16,000 and that, during the business year, it acquired another quantity of raw materials for $ 92,000, the total of raw materials in the company's stock had a total value of $ 108,000 (16,000 + 92,000).

Now, if at the end of the balance the value of the raw materials was $ 10,000, the amount of raw material that was incorporated into the production process was a value of $ 98,000 (108,000 - 10,000).
