Explanation:
The difference between buying shares and buying bonds are as follows:
1. Buying stock gives a person to own the company while buying a bond that provides a person to become a debt-holder of the company who can receive interest and get the entire amount in the future.
2. Purchasing stock gives an individual the voting right to elect the board of directors of a company. Buying bonds does not give voting rights to the bondholders.
3. Stock owners can receive the profit in the name of dividends. Bondholders do not receive any profit. Instead, they receive interest annually.
Parents can reduce their taxes by
using a child care tax credit. The government gives parents tax credit for each
child that they have. Unlike tax deduction and exemption, tax credit can be able
to reduce more in the parents’ tax bill. Tax deduction just tries to lower the
taxable income and not a reduction in other areas.
Answer:
3.45%
Explanation:
the real wage at the beginning of the recession (12/07) = nominal wage / price index Dec. 2007 = $17.70 / 2.1141 = $8.3721
the real wage at the end of the recession (6/09) = nominal wage / price index June 2009 = $18.53 / 2.14527= $8.6609
% change in real wage = [($8.6609 - $8.3721) / $8.3721] x 100 = 3.44955% = 3.45%
Due to the recession, the price index changed less than the nominal wages since the inflation rate was very low. It is normal that during recessions, specially severe ones, the inflation rate decreases or even turns negative (what happened in Europe in those years).
Answer:
1. Manufacturing overhead applied = Actual hours * Predetermined overhead rate
Manufacturing overhead applied = 13300 * $20
Manufacturing overhead applied = $266,000
From the question, Osborn Manufacturing actually incurred $275,000 of manufacturing overhead. Hence, the Manufacturing overhead is under-applied because the applied manufacturing overhead is less than the actual manufacturing overhead
Hence, Manufacturing overhead under-applied = $275,000 - $266,000
= $9,000
2. Since the applied manufacturing overhead is less than the actual manufacturing overhead, the gross margin would decrease by $9,000. The journal entry will use the under-applied manufacturing overhead for record.
