Answer:

A. Unaffected

B. Unaffected

C. Understated

D. Overstated

Explanation:

C. Understated.

Understated balance is one that is reported as having a lesser balance than it actually does. example of what could cause the situation in which cash is understated is that when check is written on the disbursing bank on the last day of December with a credit to cash, and an associated debit to some expense account so as to decrease reported profits and taxes be it (direct or indirect tjaxes) for the year.

Another example is when a utility bill that is suppose to be paid by the last day of the month but failed to record the expenses, under the accrual basis of accounting, the company should recognize the expenses now even though the bill is not yet due. Until the bill is recorded, the utilities payable is understated

d. Overstated.

An overstated balance is an account balance that is reported as having a greater balance than it actually does, example of such situation is that in which an employee has misappropriated funds during the year, and draw a check transferring funds to the account with the shortage so as to cover the shortage. As of December 31, the shortage is replaced, with no reduction as yet recorded in the account on which it is drawn.

In second example of understated, expense account is understated and because of this net income is overstated.

Answer:

Straight line:

2014 $ 65,250

2015 $ 87,000

2016 $ 87,000

2017 $ 21,750

units-of-output method:

2014 $ 108,750

2015 $ 79,750

2016 $ 58,000

2017 $ 14,500

dobule declining method

2014 135,000

2015 45,000

2016 15,000

2017 9,000

Explanation:

Straight line:

(cost - salvage value) / useful life

(270,000 - 9,000)/3 = 87,000 per complete year

First year: from April 1st to December 31th

87,000 x 9/12 = 65,250

Second and third year are complete year thus, 87,000

fourth year: from Jan 1st to March 31th:

87,000 x 3/12 = 21,750

units-of-output method:

(cost - salvage value) / unit of output

261,000 / 18,000 = 14.5 per hour

We multiply each year hours by this rate

7,500 x 14.5 = 108,750

5,500x 14.5 = 79,750

4,000x 14.5 = 58,000

1,000 x 14.5 = 14,500

double declining

we multiply by twice the rate of of straight line:

1/3 x 2 = 2/3 we depreciate this amount of the carrying vbalue per year

Last year we adjust to obtain the residual value

Year Beginning Rate Dep expense Carrying value

2014 270,000 0.50 135,000 135,000

2015 135,000 0.67 90,000 45,000

Lump-sum taxes are rarely used in the real world because:_______________

labwork [276]

Answer:

c. lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because they take the same amount of money from both poor and rich.

Explanation:

To understand this question, you have to first understand what lump-sum taxes are.

Lump-sum taxes are a system of taxes where everybody pays the same amount of tax no matter their economic status, or their actions. Basically, lump-sum taxes take the same amount of money from the rich and the poor, hugely increasing the burden on the poor and lessening that of the rich.

As an example, a lump-sum tax of $100 would require everybody to pay $100. To a person earning, say $120, that would be a huge hit, and be a huge burden on his normal life. However, to a rich person who earns, say, $10000, that would be much more easier for the rich person.

Hence, lump-sum taxes are often viewed as unfair because of the unfair advantage the rich have over the poor in tax-paying.

Hope this helped!

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The strategy the investor should follow is to short 26 contracts of September Mini S&P 500 futures.

Explanation:

Provided information;

Amount of shares of a certain stock =50,000

The market value per share = $30

Portfolio value= P = 50,000 × 30 = $1,500,000

Beta of stock β = 1.3

current Index futures price = 1,500

Multiplier = $50

Futures Value A = 1,500 × 50 = $75,000

The formula used in calculating the number of contracts =

Number of contracts N = (β × P) ÷ Future values

N = (1.3 × $1500000) ÷ $75000

N = $1950000 ÷ $75000

Number of contracts N = 26

The strategy the investor should follow is to short 26 contracts of September Mini S&P 500 futures.

A law enforcement agent is in charge of getting a writing sample from an uncooperative suspect. the agent puts the suspect in a

zmey [24]

According to my opinion, what the agent did wrong is that he asked him to write the answers of the questions two more times because when we write again and again the same thing our handwriting changes.And what the agent did right is that he influenced him to compose all that he says as he directs the data to the suspect because in this way they can see whether the handwriting matches it or not.
