Answer:

6.85%

Explanation:

Mean = 575,234

Standard deviation = 10,245

Project will be successful when PV > 560,000

For not getting success, PV < 560,000

P (X < 560,000) = <em>P </em>(Z < (560,000-575,234)/10,245)

P (X < 560,000) = <em>P </em>(Z < -1.48697)

P (X < 560,000) = 0.0685

P (X < 560,000) = 6.85%

Therefore, the chance that the project will NOT succeed is 6.85%

Peking Palace Company reported the following: Standard quantity per unit 3 lbs. Standard price per pound $2.75 Actual pounds use
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

$577.5 favorable

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Standard quantity per unit 3 lbs

Standard price per pound = $2.75

Actual pounds used = 15,000 lbs

Actual price per pound = $2.90

Number of units produced = 5,070

Now,

The direct materials quantity variance is given as;

= | ( Actual quantity - Standard quantity ) | × Standard price

= ( 15,000 lbs - {Standard quantity per unit × units produced}) × $2.75

=  ( 15,000 lbs - { 3 × 5,070}) × $2.75

= | ( 15,000 lbs - 15,210 ) | × $2.75

= $577.5

Since,

Standard quantity is higher than the actual quantity

thus,

$577.5 favorable

Mccabe Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing. The following data pertain to its Assembly Departmen
Gemiola [76]

Answer and Explanation:

The computation of the equivalent units of production for both materials and conversion costs is given below:

For material

= Units completed + ending work in process × completion percentage

= 7,700 + 2,100 × 0.75

= 9,275 units

And, for conversion cost

= Units completed + ending work in process × completion percentage

= 7,700 + 2,100 × 0.25

= 8,225 units

In 2019, Laureen is currently single. She paid $2,800 of qualified tuition and related expenses for each of her twin daughters S
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Answers below

Explanation:

a) Laureen's AGI - $45,000

For 2 daughter - AOTC is - (2000*2child)+(800*25%+2child)

=4000+400

=4400

For Ryan - 1900

AOTC - 6300

Laureen lifetime learning credit - Eligible is 2000 (The amount of the credit is 20 percent of the first $10,000 of qualified education expenses or a maximum of $2,000 per return)

so in above case it is - 1200*20% =240 (Since AGI is below clip of 56000 he can claim same)

=6300+240 = 6540 is eligible deduction

b)

Since AGI is 95000

AOTC can't be calimed if AGI is above 90000 and hence AOTC is zero and Lifetime learning credit can't be claimed if AGI is above 56000.. Hence it is zero education credit

c)

For Daughter it is same as a above i.e. 4,400

For Ryan it is = 2000+(10000*25%) or maximum 4000

=2000+2500 or 4000

so 4000 is allowed

so AOTC total of 8400 and LLC of 240 so claimed is 8640
