Sally’s parents deposited $15,000 into a college savings account on her third birthday. The account had an interest rate of 9.6%
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The correct option is yes,the $15,000 will double each 7.5 years.In 15 years ,it will double twice.

Explanation:

The 72 rule stipulates that the number of years it would take an investment to achieve accumulate a certain amount- future value, can be computed by dividing 72 by the interest rate earns by the investment

N, the number of years=72/9.6

                                      =7.5 years

Invariably,in 7.5 years' when Sally would have been 10.5 years(3 years now+7.5 years) the investment would have doubled.

By another 7.5 years when Sally would have been 18 years(10.5 years +7.5 years), the investment would have doubled twice.

The 72 rule is fast-track approach to calculating the duration of an investment.

Marketing Docs prepares marketing plans for growing businesses. For 2017, budgeted revenues are $1,500,000 based on 500 marketin
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Contribution margin per marketing plan = Sales - Variable cost

                                                                   =  $3,000 - $2,000

                                                                   = $1,000

A.

(1) Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{Fixed\ cost}{contribution\ margin\ per\ marketing\ plan}

Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{400,000}{1,000}

Break even in marketing plan = 400

(2) Break-even in dollars:

= Break-even in marketing plan × Average rate per plan

= 400 × 3,000

= 1,200,000

(3) Margin of safety = Actual sales - Break-even sales in dollars

                                = 1,500,000 - 1,200,000

                                = 300,000

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{Margin\ of\ safety}{Actual\ sales}

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{300,000}{1,500,000}

                                             = 20%

B.

(1) Contribution margin per marketing plan = Sales - Variable cost

                                                                   =  $4,000 - $2,000

                                                                   = $2,000

Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{Fixed\ cost}{contribution\ margin\ per\ marketing\ plan}

Break-even\ in\ rooms=\frac{400,000}{2,000}

Break even in marketing plan = 200

(2) Break-even in dollars:

= Break-even in marketing plan × Average rate per plan

= 200 × 4,000

= 800,000

(3) Margin of safety = Actual sales - Break-even sales in dollars

                                = 1,500,000 - 800,000

                                = 700,000

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{Margin\ of\ safety}{Actual\ sales}

Margin\ of\ safety\ ratio=\frac{700,000}{1,500,000}

                                             = 47%

Therefore, option (a) would achieve the margin of safety ratio more than 45%.

Compute the cost assigned to ending inventory using (a) FIFO, (b) LIFO, (c) weighted average, and (d) specific identification. F
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Closing Units =  (710 units - 490 units)= 220 units

a) FIFO : closing inventory = $14,040

   Mar 18 purchase 20 *$62 =$1,240

  Mar 25 purchase 200 *$64 = $12,800

b) LIFO : closing inventory = $12,780

Mar 1 opening = 90 * $52 =$4,680

Mar 18 purchase = 110 * $62 = $6,820

Mar 25 purchase = 20*$64 =1,280

c) Weighted Average Method (WAM) :

WAM= (Opening cost + purchases cost)/(opening units +units purchased)

       = ($7,800+$14,250)/(150+250) = $55.125 cost before Mar 9 sale

WAM(after the first sale) = ($4,961.25 +$6,820 + $12,800)/(90+110+200)

                                        = $61.45

Closing Inventory = $61.45*220 =$13,519

d) Specific Identification :Closing Inventory = $13,070

Mar 01 opening = 60 *$52 =$3,120

Mar 5 Purchase = 30*$57 =$1,710

Mar 18 Purchase = 40*$62 =$2,480

Mar 25 Purchase = 90*$64 =$5,760

Explanation:

The Question is incomplete. I have provided the missing part of the question below.

Date Activities Units Acquired at Cost Units Sold at Retail

Mar. 1  Beginning inventory  150 units  $52.00/unit    

Mar. 5  Purchase  250 units  $57.00/unit    

Mar. 9  Sales      310 units  $87.00/unit

Mar. 18  Purchase  110 units  $62.00/unit    

Mar. 25  Purchase  200 units  $64.00/unit    

Mar. 29  Sales      180 units  $97.00/unit

     Totals  710 units   490 units

fiasKO [112]

Complete Question:

Jon is a cash-basis taxpayer and has adjusted gross income of $40,000 in 2018. During the year he incurred and paid the following medical expenses.

Drugs and medicines prescribed by doctors $300

Health insurance premiums $750

Doctors' fees $2,250

Eyeglasses $75

How much medical expense can he deduct as itemized deduction?

Answer:

Jon

Medical expense that Jon can deduct as itemized deduction:

= $375

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Adjusted gross income = $40,000

Incurred medical expenses:

Drugs and medicines prescribed by doctors $300

Health insurance premiums $750

Doctors' fees $2,250

Eyeglasses $75

Total  = $3,375

Under Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), the medical expenses which can be deducted as an itemized deduction on the federal income tax return are only to the extent that they exceed 7.5% of adjusted gross income (AGI).

7.5% of $40,000 = $3,000

Therefore, Jon can itemize deduction of $375 in medical expense.
