Answer:
Net pay is $1,201.80
Explanation:
The salary is $58,640 annually
The semi monthly gross salary will be ($58,640 / 24) = $2,443.33
The deductions will be:
Social security 6.2% = $151.49
Medicare 1.45% = $35.42
3% contribution to 401k = $73.30
Section 125 Plan = $25
Advance repayment ($1,650 / 2) = $825
Taxable Income is $2,443.33 - $73.30 - $25 = $2,345.03
Federal Income Tax 1.6% = $37.52
State Income Tax 4% = $93.80
Net pay is ($2,345.03 - $37.52 - $93.80 - $151.49 - $35.42 - $825) = $1,201.80

Explanation:
A firm has the choice of investing in one of two projects. Both projects last one year. Project 1 requires an investment of $11,000 and yields $11,000 with a probability of 0.5 and $13,000 with a probability of 0.5. Project 2 also requires an investment of $11,000 and yields $5,000 with a probability of 0.5 and $20,000 with a probability of 0.5. The firm is capable of raising $10,000 of the investment required through a bond issue carrying an annual interest rate of 10 percent.
a. Assuming that the investors are concerned only about expected returns, which project would stockholders prefer? Why?
b. Which project would bondholders prefer? Why?
Answer:
a. Assuming that the investors are concerned only about expected returns, stockholders would prefer Project 2. It yields more returns with the high risk variability attached to the better yield of $20,000.
b. Bondholders would prefer Project 1. It yields good returns with moderate risk variability. Bondholders are generally risk-averse. They avoid risk wherever possible.

Explanation:
Here is the full question :
ee Hint Haiti is a very poor country. Singapore is much smaller geographically and has far fewer people, but it is roughly 70 times richer in terms of per capita GDP. Supposing the following statements are true, which one might explain why Haiti is a little closer to Singapore in terms of standard of living than the official statistics suggest? Choose one: O A Health standards in Singapore exceed those in Haiti. O B. Singapore is much more livable in terms of pollution than Haiti. OC. There is more underground market activity in Singapore than in Haiti. O D. Haiti has more nonmarket production than Singapore.
Per capita GDP = GDP / population
If Haiti has more non market activities, the bulk of its economic activities would not be captured in the GDP. This would lead to Haiti having a smaller GDP than Singapore

You want to buy a car, and a local bank will lend you $20,000. The loan would be fully amortized over 6 years (72 months), and the nominal interest rate would be 9%, with interest paid monthly. What is the monthly loan payment? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest cent. $ What is the loan's EFF%? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
1. $360.51
2. 9.38%
Explanation:
1. Calculation for What is the monthly loan payment
Based on the information given we would be
Using TVM financial calculator to find the monthly loan payment
PMT = [PV = $20,000, FV = 0, N = 72 months, I = 0.09/12]
PMT = $360.51
Therefore the monthly loan payment will be $360.51
2. Calculation for the loan's EFF%
EFF%= (1 + 0.09/12)^12 - 1
EFF% = 9.38%
Therefore the loan's EFF% will be 9.38%
A manager is trying to decide whether to purchase a certain part or to have it produced internally. Internal production could use either of two processes. One would entail a variable cost of $17 per unit and an annual fixed cost of $200,000; the other would entail a variable cost of $14 per unit and an annual fixed cost of $240,000. Three vendors are willing to provide the part. Vendor A has a price of $20 per unit for any volume up to 30,000 units. Vendor B has a price of $22 per unit for demand of 1,000 units or less, and $18 per unit for larger quantities. Vendor C offers a price of $21 per unit for the first 1,000 units, and $19 per unit for additional units.
A. If the manager anticipates an annual volume of 10,000 units, which alternative would be best from a cost standpoint? For 20,000 units, which alternative would be best?
B. Determine the range for which each alternative is best. Are there any alternatives that are never best? Which?
TC for 10,000 units TC for 20,000 units
Int. 1: $ Int. 1: $
Int. 2: $ Int. 2: $
Vend A $ Vend A $
Vend B $ Vend B $
Vend C $ Vend C $
Answer:
A. If the manager anticipates an annual volume of 10,000 units, the alternative that would be best from a cost standpoint is Vendor B.
Again, for annual volume of 20,000 units, Vendor B is the best choice.
B. For Process I, it is best within the range of 20,555 and 200,000
For Process 2, the best range is 200,000 and above
Vender A, there is no best range
Vender B, the best range is 1 to 20,555
Vender C, there is no best range
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Internal Process 1 = $17Q + $200,000
Internal Process 2 = $14Q + $240,000
Vendor A = $20Q up to 30,000 units
Vender B = $18Q
Vender C = $21*1,000 + $19(Q-1,000)
Calculation of total cost under each alternative:
Internal Vender A Vender B Vender C
Process 1 Process 2
Cost of production:
Variable cost per unit $17 $14 $20 $18 $19
For 10,000 Units:
Fixed costs $200,000 $240,000 0 0 $21,000
Variable cost 170,000 140,000 $200,000 $180,000 $171,000
Total cost $370,000 $380,000 $200,000 $180,000 $192,000

Decorative Concrete produces a concrete overlay for residential and commercial concrete flooring. Customers have complained that one of the products results in excessive cracking. The likelihood the company will incur a loss on this product is probable and the amount of the loss is estimated to be somewhere between $1.1 and $4 million.
1. Should this contingent liability be reported, disclosed in a note only, or both? To be reported To be disclosed Both2. What loss, if any, should Decorative Concrete report in its income statement?3. What liability, if any should Decorative Concrete report in its balance sheet?4. What entry, if any should be recorded in the journal?
Answer:
Decorative Concrete
1. This contingent liability should be disclosed in a note only.
2. Decorative Concrete should not report any loss in its income statement, yet.
3. Decorative Concrete should not report any liability in its balance sheet, yet.
4. No entry should be recorded in the journal.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Estimated loss = $1.1 and $4 million
Loss is probable but the loss cannot be reasonably estimated
b) Decorative Concrete cannot reasonably estimate the loss that may arise from the contingent liability. Therefore, it should only disclose the future event in a note to the financial statements. Accounting rules specify that Decorative Concrete should record this event as a contingent liability in its accounts when it is probable that the future event will occur and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. At that time, a specific amount of loss will be recorded (debit) and a specific liability established (credit) in advance of the settlement. In this Decorative's case, only one condition is met.

We should note that the underground activities are not added to the gross domestic product of countries. This, therefore leads to a reduction in the GDP of such countries. In this case, there'll be an understatement of the GDP of the Arab countries.
Western Electronics (WE) is reviewing the following data relating to a new equipment proposal: Net initial investment outlay After-tax cash inflow from disposal of the asset after 5 years $10,000 Present value of an annuity of $i at 128for 5 years Present value of $1 at 128 in 5 years $50,000 3.605 0.567 WE expects the net after-tax savings in cash outflows from the investment to be equal in each of the 5 years. What is the minimum amount of after-tax annual savings oncluding depreciation effects) needed to make the investment yield a 12% return (rounded to the nearest whole dollar)?
$13,889.
$12,297
$8,189.
$11,111
$15,678
Answer:
$12.297
Explanation:
From the given information:
The required amount for the after-tax annual savings to yield a return of 12% can be calculated as follows:
The Present value PV of future salvage value, after tax is:
= $10000 × 0.567
= $5670
From the original outlay of investment which is = $50000
The net amount to be recovered in terms of the present value = $50000 - $5670
= $44330
Finally, the required amount for the after-tax annual savings = [tex]\dfrac{\$44330}{3.605}[/tex]
= $12.297
A company that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used 6 workers, who together produced an average of 90 carts per hour. Workers receive $15 per hour, and machine cost was $40 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by $11 per hour, while output increased by 5 carts per hour.
Comment on the changes in productivity according to the two measures. (Round your intermediate calculations to 3 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.)
1. Labor productivity is increased or decreased by what %?
2. Multifactor productivity is increased or decreased by what %?
Answer: Hope this help. Please mark me brainliest :)
Explanation:
a.
Before: 90 ÷ 6 = 15.00 carts per worker per hour.
After: 96 ÷ 5 = 19.20 carts per worker per hour.
b.
Before: $14 x 6 = $84 + $40 = $124; hence 90 ÷ $124 = 0.73 carts/dollar cost.
After: $14 x 5 = $70 + $51 = $121; hence 96 ÷ $121 = 0.79 carts/dollar cost.
c.
Labor productivity increased by 28.00% (4.20/15.00).
Multifactor productivity increased by 8.22% (0.06/0.73).
