2. Calculation to determine what Olaf and Anna should include the loss on the return, because the tax savings is greater.
Based on the information given in a situation where Olaf and his wife apply the loss to the prior year which means that rate of 22% will be use for the benefit of the loss
Taxable income = ($145,000 − $61,900)
Taxable income = $ 83,100
Calculation for when Loss is taken on the PRIOR year's return:
Tax savings=(22% × $61,900)
Tax savings= $ 13,618
In a situation where the loss is been applied to the current year which means that the rate of 24 % will be use for the benefit of the loss
Taxable income = ($225,000-$49,900)
Taxable income= $ 175,100
Calculation for the loss is taken on the CURRENT year's return:
Tax savings= (24% × $49,900)
Tax savings =$ 11,976
Therefore based on the above calculation Olaf and his wife Anna should include the loss on the PRIOR YEAR'S return reason been that the tax savings is $1,642 ($13618 − $11976) greater.

How does risk influence the rate of interest?
Answer:
Interest rate risk directly affects the values of fixed income securities. Since interest rates and bond prices are inversely related, the risk associated with a rise in interest rates causes bond prices to fall and vice versa. Interest rate risk affects the prices of bonds, and all bondholders face this type of risk.

Item 5 Required information Skip to question Current Time 0:00 / Duration 6:35 1x The Science Institute has three departments: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. The institute's controller wants to estimate the cost of operating each department. He has identified several indirect costs that must be allocated to each department including $43,000 of indirect salaries, $4,500 of office supplies, and $36,500 of office rent. There are 500 students in the biology department, 200 in chemistry and 300 in physics (1,000 total students as the allocation base). The amount of cost that should be allocated to the Chemistry Department is
Answer:
$16,800
Explanation:
Calculation to determine The amount of cost that should be allocated to the Chemistry Department is
First step is to calculate the Cost to be allocated
Cost to be allocated = $43,000 + $4,500 + $36,500
Cost to be allocated= $84,000
Second step is to calculate the Allocation base
Allocation base = 500 + 200 + 300
Allocation base = 1,000 total students
Third step is to calculate the Allocation rate using this formula
Allocation rate = Cost to be allocated ÷
Allocation base
Let plug in the formula
Allocation rate= $84,000 ÷ 1,000
Allocation rate = $84 per student
Now let calculate the Allocation to Chemistry Department
Allocation to Chemistry Department = $84 per student x 200
Allocation to Chemistry Department = $16,800
Therefore The amount of cost that should be allocated to the Chemistry Department is $16,800
On January 1, 2021, Bombay Corporation signed a five-year noncancelable lease for equipment. The terms of the lease called for Bombay to make annual payments of $180,000 at the beginning of each year for five years with title passing to Bombay at the end of this period. The equipment has an estimated useful life of 7 years and no salvage value. Bombay uses the straight-line method of depreciation for all of its fixed assets. Bombay accordingly accounts for this lease transaction as a finance lease. The lease payments were determined to have a present value of $750,578 at an effective interest rate of 10%.

In 2022, Cullumber should record interest expense of:______
Answer:
In 2022, Cullumber should record interest expense of $57,057.80.
Explanation:
The interest expense can be calculated using the following formula:
Interest expense = (Present value of lease payments - Annual payments at the beginning of each year) * Effective interest rate .................... (1)
Where:
Annual payments at the beginning of each year = $180,000
Present value of lease payments = $750,578
Effective interest rate = 10%
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
Interest expense = ($750,578 - $180,000) * 10% = $57,057.80
Therefore, Cullumber should record interest expense of $57,057.80 in 2022.
Economic costs of unemployment
Consider a hypothetical economy in which potential output is $200 billion and the natural rate of unemployment is 4%. The current unemployment rate is 5.6%. Since the unemployment rate is greater than the natural rate of unemployment, the economy's actual GDP will be______ potential GDP.
According to Okun's law, the economy's GDP gap is billion. The burden of an increase in the economy-wide unemployment rate can differ widely across regions and across different groups of people. For example, in the United States, the jobless rate among workers with only a high school diploma has tended to be________ than the jobless rate among college graduates.
Answer: less than; higher
Explanation:
Since the unemployment rate is greater than the natural rate of unemployment, the economy's actual GDP will be less than potential GDP.
...the jobless rate among workers with only a high school diploma has tended to be higher than the jobless rate among college graduates.
When the economy is at its natural rate of unemployment, it means that the economy is producing at potential GDP. If however, the unemployment rate is more than this natural rate, it means that the economy is facing a downturn which is causing companies to not employ as much labor. Actual GDP is therefore lower than Potential GDP.
Workers with more specialized skills will usually feel the impact of an increase in unemployment less those with more general skills will. For this reason, college graduates will see less unemployment than those with only a high school diploma.
A firm began the construction of its new manufacturing facility in January of 20x2. The following expenditures were made on construction in that year: Jan. 1 $40,000 Mar. 1 120,000 Oct. 31 96,000 Debt outstanding the entire year: 6%, $60,000 construction loan 4%, $90,000 note payable not related to construction 6%, $90,000 note payable not related to construction Compute interest to be capitalized using the weighted average method.
a. $6,720
b. $12,600
c. $8,400
d. $8,190
Answer:
d. $8,190
Explanation:
Firstly, average accumulated expenditures is ;
= $40,000 + $120,000 ( 10/12) + $960,000 (2/12)
= $156,000
The rate
= ($3,600 + $3,600 + $5,400) / $240,000
= 0.0525
Therefore, Interest capitalized is
= (0.0525) × $156,000
= 8,190
The Federal Reserve buys $38.00 million in Treasury securities. If the required reserve ratio is 30.00%, and all currency is deposited into the banking system, and banks hold excess reserves of 10%, then the maximum amount the money supply can increase is $_______ million.
Answer:
$95 million
Explanation:
When the Feds buys securities, it is an expansionary monetary policy
Expansionary monetary policy : these are polices taken in order to increase money supply. When money supply increases, aggregate demand increases. reducing interest rate and open market purchase are ways of carrying out expansionary monetary policy
Required reserves is the percentage of deposits required of banks to keep as reserves by the central bank
Required reserves = reserve requirement x deposits
Excess reserves is the extra that it kept by banks
Money supply = deposit / total reserves
total reserves = 30 + 10 = 40%
total increase in money supply = $38 / 0.4 = $95 million
What is an easement? What is it called when an easement is obtained against the consent of the landowner? What type of easement can be created by two adjacent landowners where one of them is “landlocked” by the other landowner?
Answer:
1. An easement is the right given to a person by law to utilize a particular part of another person's land.
2. When an easement is obtained against the consent of the landowner it is known as Prescriptive easement.
3. An easement that is created by two adjacent landowners where one is landlocked by the other landowner is called Easement appurtenant.
Explanation:
An easement is the lawful right of a person to use another person's property. Ingress, egress, and drainage are common reasons why an easement might be needed. When a piece of land does not have access to a roadway, then an easement might be required.
Prescriptive easement occurs when a land has been used by another person who is not the legal owner for up to twenty years without the consent/knowledge of the original owner of the land.
Easement appurtenant occurs for example when a person cannot access his own land with passing through another person's land. An easement by necessity can be created in such situations to solve the problem.
If the United States imports more than it exports, then Group of answer choices the supply of dollars is likely to exceed the demand in the foreign exchange market, ceteris paribus. one can infer that the U.S. dollar would be under pressure to depreciate against other currencies. the supply of dollars is likely to exceed the demand in the foreign exchange market, ceteris paribus, and one can infer that the U.S. dollar would be under pressure to depreciate against other currencies. none of the options
Answer:
the supply of dollars is likely to exceed the demand in the foreign exchange market, ceteris paribus.
Explanation:
A deficit can be defined as an amount by which money, falls short of its expected value.
In Financial accounting, deficit is usually as a result of revenue falling below expenses or expense exceeding revenue at a specific period of time.
For instance, if in a country liabilities exceeds assets or import exceeds export there would be a deficit in the financial account of the country.
This is simply as a result of a country having to import more goods and services than it is exporting to other countries in trade.
Generally, a deficit on the current account is because the value of goods and services exported is lower than the value of goods and services being imported in a particular country.
If the United States imports more than it exports, then the supply of dollars is likely to exceed the demand in the foreign exchange market, ceteris paribus (all things being equal) because it is not selling its goods and services to other countries.
Farris Corporation, which has only one product, has provided the following data concerning its most recent month of operations: Selling price $108 Units in beginning inventory 0 Units produced 8,900 Units sold 8,500 Units in ending inventory 400 Variable costs per unit: Direct materials $ 17 Direct labor $ 59 Variable manufacturing overhead $ 5 Variable selling and administrative expense $ 9 Fixed costs: Fixed manufacturing overhead $133,500 Fixed selling and administrative expense $ 8,700 What is the net operating income for the month under absorption costing
Answer:
Net operating profit= 441,800
Explanation:
The absorption costing method includes all costs related to production, both fixed and variable. The unit product cost is calculated using direct material, direct labor, and total unitary manufacturing overhead.
First, we need to calculate the unitary production cost:
Unitary production cost= 17 + 9 + 5 + (133,500/8,900)
unitary production cost= $46
Now, the income statement:
Sales= 8,500*108= 918,000
COGS= (391,000)
Gross profit= 527,000
Total selling and administrative expense= (8,700 + 9*8,500)= (85,200)
Net operating profit= 441,800

Robin is granted 1,500 shares of restricted stock from her employer when the stock is trading at a fair market value of $25 per share. She is anticipating significant appreciation and wishes to minimize her future tax burden. As a result, she makes a Section 83(b) election. Assuming she is in the 35% marginal income tax bracket, how much income tax that will be due on this transaction in the year of election
Answer: $13125
Explanation:
Firstly, we should note that in section 83(B), tax is being paid based on the stock's fair market value. Therefore, the income tax that will be due on this transaction in the year of election will be:
= Number of shares × Price × Tax rate
= 1500 × $25 × 35%
= 1500 × $25 × 0.35
= $13125

Fischer Company has outstanding 8,000 shares of $100 par value, 5% preferred stock, and 50,000 shares of $1 par value common stock. The company has $328,000 of retained earnings. At year-end, the company declares and pays the regular $5 per share cash dividend on preferred stock and a $1.80 per share cash dividend on common stock. What is the total dividends paid by Fischer Company
Answer:
The appropriate solution is "$130,000".
Explanation:
The given values are:
No. of common shares outstanding
= 50,000
Dividend per share
= $1.80
No. of preferred shares outstanding
= 8,000
Dividend per share
= $5
Now,
The total dividend on common shares will be:
= [tex]No. \ of \ common \ shared \ outstanding\times Dividend \ per \ share[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
= [tex]50,000\times 1.80[/tex]
= [tex]90,000[/tex] ($)
The total dividend on preferred stock will be:
= [tex]No. \ of \ preferred \ shares \ outstanding\times Divided \ per \ share[/tex]
On substituting the values, we get
= [tex]8,000\times 5[/tex]
= [tex]40,000[/tex] ($)
Hence,
The total dividend paid by company will be:
= [tex]Total \ dividend \ on \ common \ shares +Total \ dividend \ on \ preferred \ stock[/tex]
= [tex]90,000+40,000[/tex]
= [tex]130,000[/tex] ($)
Thus the above is the correct answer.
If equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market the deadweight loss will equal the sum of consumer surplus and producer surplus. the deadweight loss will be the same as the opportunity cost of the last unit of output sold. the deadweight loss will be maximized. there is no deadweight loss.
Answer:
there is no deadweight loss.
Explanation:
In a perfect competition, there are many buyers and sellers of homogeneous products, and there is free entry and exit in the market.
This simply means that, in a perfectly competitive market, there are many buyers and sellers (price takers) of homogeneous products (standardized products with substitute) and the market is free (practically open) to all individuals or business entities that are willing to trade all their goods and services.
Generally, a perfectly competitive market is characterized by the following features;
1. Perfect information.
2. No barriers, it is typically free.
3. Equilibrium price and quantity.
4. Many buyers and sellers.
5. Homogeneous products.
Examples of a perfectly competitive market are the Agricultural sector, e-commerce and the foreign exchange market.
Hence, if equilibrium is achieved in a competitive market then, there is no deadweight loss i.e a loss of economic efficiency due to a lack of balance in competing economical influences for goods or services.
On average, your firm receives 65 checks a day from customers. These checks, on average, are worth $39.90 each and clear the bank in 1.5 days. In addition, your firm disburses 38 checks a day with an average amount of $89.50. These checks clear your bank in 2 days. What is the average amount of the collection float? $2,473.80 $3,401.00 $3,890.25 $5,101.50 $6,802.00
Answer:
$3,890.25
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the average amount of the collection float
Using this formula
Collection float =Average Checks received ×Average checks worth×Bank checks clearing numbers of days
Let plug in the formula
Collection float =65 x $39.90 x 1.5 days
Collection float = $3,890.25
Therefore the average amount of the collection float will be $3,890.25
Assume you gave up a $60,000 per year job at an accounting firm to start your own tax preparation business. To simplify, assume your tax personal obligations are the same whether you run your own firm or work for another firm. If your revenue during the first year of business is $75,000, and you incurred $5,000 in expenses for equipment and supplies, how much is your accounting profit
Answer:
Accounting profit= $70,000
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
If your revenue during the first year of business is $75,000, and you incurred $5,000 in expenses for equipment and supplies, how much is your accounting profit
The accounting profit does not include the opportunity cost of leaving the accounting job. In this case, the accounting profit is:
Accounting profit= revenue - costs
Accounting profit= 75,000 - 5,000
Accounting profit= $70,000
1. The federal government is considering selling tracts of federally owned land to private developers and using the revenues to provide aid to victims of an earthquake in a foreign country. How would this policy affect the levels of federal revenues, expenditures, and deficits under a cash accounting system
Answer:
The responses to this question can be defined as follows:
Explanation:
In a currency system, its current amount of the debt is influenced by the cash financial statements, and sales will rise by amount and revenue would be compensated by spending increases on foreign aid. The financial accounting system must realize that its government sold a well-established resource and increased the overall scarcity.
Its capital account weakness relates to an undistorted added money from the currency exchange that would offset a decrease throughout the estimate of the benefits of Congress and lead to an increase in the utilization of the shortfall quickly.
Organizations with low turnover and satisfied employees tend to perform better. On the other side of the coin, organizations have to act when an employee's performance consistently falls short. Based on these concepts, organizations may distinguish between involuntary and voluntary turnover, recognize their effects on the organization, develop measures to encourage top performers to stay, and develop ways to manage the separation process fairly. Any organization wants to retain good performers and encourage or force low-performing employees to leave. There are two types of employee turnover. Involuntary turnover occurs when the employer requires employees to leave, often when they would prefer to stay. This action may potentially result in lawsuits and violence. Voluntary turnover occurs when employees initiate the turnover, often when the organization would prefer to keep them. These employees may retire or leave to work with different organizations. Both types of turnovers are costly because of subsequent needs to recruit, hire, and train replacements.
