Answer:

In simple words, it is hard for governments to break he monopolies as generally as these entities are generally protected by some kind of legal or social convention. A monopoly of an entity that has strategic importance for the nation could be harmful in long run. Also if an individual owns a monopoly due to some patent right etc. then breaking that up will be seen as social injustice.

Answer:

reconciliate balance $ 22,388,675‬

Explanation:

bank statement:                18,835

deposits in transit           100,740

                                 22,376,200

outstanding check

  10189                            (56,710)

  10192                            (15,365)

  10193                           (22,650)

  10194                            (12,375)

Adjusted balance:  22,388,675‬

checkbook balance: 22,385,105

      interest earned           4,020

      ATM card fees              (450)

  Adjusted balance:  22,388,675

Notes: For each statement we adjust for the unknown information.

The bank is unaware of the outstanding check and the deposit in transit.  So we adjust for these concepts.

The company has no knowledge of the ffes and interest earned until receiving the bank statement so we must adjust for that amount.

diamong [38]

Answer:

a. This is a realized income. Amount to be included in his gross income is $0.

b. This is a realized income. Amount to be included in his gross income is $0.

c. This is a realized income. Amount of gift of bond to include in Glady's gross income is $0. Amount of interest from the bonds to be included in his gross income is $0.

d. This is NOT a realized income. Amount to be included in his gross income is $0.

Explanation:

a. A gift of $30,600 from Grady’s grandfather. Amount to be included?

The $30,600 is categorized as a realized income. However, no part of the total amount of any gift will be included in the gross income.

Therefore, amount to be included Glagy's gross income is $0.

b. 680 shares of GM stock worth $282 per share inherited from Grady’s uncle. The uncle purchased the shares for $82 each, and the shares are worth $287 at year-end. Amount to be included?

This amount of inheritance is categorized a realized income. However, they are not to be included as part of the gross income.

Although the there is an increase in the share value from $82 to $287, but the increased value will still not be included in the gross income because it has not been realized.

Therefore, amount to be included Glagy's gross income is $0.

c. A gift of $53,000 of Ford Motor Bonds. Grady received the bonds on October 31, and he received $1,590 of semiannual interest from the bonds on December 31. Amount to be included for gift motor bonds? Amount to be included for interest from the bonds?

This gift of bond is categorized as a realized income. However, they are not to be included as part of the gross income.

The amount of interest that accrued till October 31 will not be included in the gross income because it is considered as part of the gift as it was an interest that accrued when the bond gift was given.

The $530 [i.e ($1,590 / 6 months) * 2 months] that accrued from November 1 to December 31 (i.e. 2 months) will be taxed because it accrued after the day the gift was given. But this is an accrued interest that has not been received. It will therefore not be included in the gross income but it will be taxed when it is received.

The amount of gift of bond = $53,000 + [($1,590 / 6 months) * 4 months] = $53,000 + $1,060 = $54,060.

Amount of accrued interest from the bonds = ($1,590 / 6 months) * 2 months = $530.

However, amount of gift of bond and interest from the bonds to be included in Glady's gross income is $0.

d. A loan of $7,200 for school expenses from Grady’s aunt. Amount to be included?

A genuine loan does not fall under the category of a realiszed income. However, there are situations whereby a loan can be a a disguised gift. Under this situation, the loan would be considered as a gift and then becomes a realized income. However, the value of the gift will not be included in the gross income.

For this qustion, the loan is considered a genuine loan and it not a realized income. Therefore, the amount to be included Glagy's gross income is $0.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

$774 unfavorable

Explanation:

The computation of the direct material quantity variance is shown below:

= Standard Price × (Standard Quantity - Actual Quantity)

= $8.60 × (1,910 kilograms - 2,000 kilograms)

= $8.60 × 90 kilograms

= $774 unfavorable

Since it is unfavorable as it derives that actual quantity is more than the standard quantity and in the case of favorable, the actual quantity is less than the standard quantity
