Tcecarenko [31]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  1. True
  2. True

Explanation:

The deadweight loss in the fifth year will indeed be higher in the fifth year than in the first because deadweight loss has been shown to increase with elasticity.

As demand becomes more elastic as a result of the oil becoming more expensive, tax revenue will decrease in future which means that tax revenue will be less in five years than in the first.

Proposal #2 would establish local collection centers throughout the region to decrease the time it takes to convert credit payme
mezya [45]

Answer: a. $120,000

b. $6,000

c. Yes

Explanation:

a. It is said that the collection centres would help reduce the collection time by 2 days and that every day $60,000 comes in.

If the proposal will reduce the amount of time taken to collect by 2 days then that means that the amount freed up is the amount that they would have collected in two days had it not been for the system.

That amount would be,

= $60,000 * 2

= $120,000

b. If they used this free up cash to pay off a debt that was accumulating 5% per year then the 5% will be saved.

The amount saved therefore is,

= 120,000 * 5%

= $6,000

By retiring a $120,000 that was accruing $6,000 a year, the proposal has enabled that $6,000 to be saved instead.

c. The cost of implementing this proposal is $5,200 per year and yet the savings it gives in interest is $6,000.

As the savings are higher than the cost, the number definitely suggest that the project should be implemented because it is more beneficial than it costs.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The answer of each requirement is given below.

A.) record the events under an accounting equation

Accounting equation is given below.

Asset = Equity + Liability

Land + Cash = Equity + liability

12,000 + 4000 = 10,000 + 6,000

16,000 = 16,000

B.) After all events have been recorded, Jones's obligations to creditors represent what percent of total assets

Percentage = 6,000/16,000*100 = 37.5%

C.) after all events have been recorded, Jones stockholders equity represents what percent of total assets?

Equity percentage = 10,000/16,000* 100 = 62.5%

D.) assume the debt is due. given that jones has $10,000 in stock holders' equity can the company repay the creditors at this point? why or why not

No, the company will not be able to pay debt as the company has acquired land of 12,000 dollars and has only 4,000 dollars in liquid form.

Hyundai is considering opening a plant in two neighboring states.
Svetach [21]

Answer:

a. What is the after state taxes profit in the state with the 10% tax rate?

after state tax profit = $1,015,000 x (1 - state tax rate) = $1,015,000 x 0.90 = $913,500

b.  What is the after state taxes profit in the state with the 2% tax rate?

after state tax profit = $960,000 x (1 - state tax rate) = $960,000 x 0.98 = $940,800

Unlike federal corporate taxes which apply to all US corporations regardless of where they operate, state corporate taxes vary a lot depending on the state. Some states do not collect any tax at all (6 states) while others charge taxes that vary from 2.5% to 12%.
