Answer:
Simplified Employee Pension IRA (SEP)
Explanation:
Simplified employee pension IRA is most suitable for this client because it is easy to set up and operate. Most importantly it requires a maximum of 20% of the contributor's income. The amount required is capped at $54,000.
In this case 20% of the employee's income is 0.20 * 200,000 = $40,000
So this is a right fit.
Roth IRA will not work because maximum contribution is $5,500
Traditional IRA will also not work because it requires a maximum contribution of $5,500 or when it is a 401(k) plan a maximum of $18,000. It is also expensive to set up and operate as it is designed for big companies.

Brian Hickey uses his credit card in August to purchase the following college supplies: books for $425, your long bus pass for $175, food service meal ticket for $450, and season tickets to the basketball games for $125,. On September 1, he uses 650 of his financial aid check to reduce the balance. The issuing bank charges 1.2% interest per month and requires full payment within 36 months. Brian had a previous balance is zero and he makes no other purchases with his card. What is the minimum payment due September 1, and what is the balance due on October 1?
Answer:
Brian Hickey
a. Minimum due on September 1 is:
$510.90
b. Balance due on October 1 is:
$516.13
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Purchases in August:
Books = $425
Long bus pass = 175
Meal ticket = 450
Basketball games = 125
Total purchases = $1,175
Interest rate = 1.2% per month
Interest accrued 14.10
Total in debt $1,160.90
September 1:
b) Debt reduction 650.00
Balance = $510.90
Interest accrued 6.13
Ending Balance $516.13
c) The credit card interest is calculated on the remaining debt after each transaction. This interest is then added back to the debt to obtain the balance due. If Brian Hickey does not carry out any other transaction with his credit card, the debt will continue to increase by 1.2% compounded monthly until the expiration of the 36-months period.
IP Company has a preliminary cash balance of $25,000 and an agreement with the bank that it will keep a minimum balance of $20,000. IP Company has a beginning loan balance of $12,000.
The ending loan balance is:________.
Answer: $7,000
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that IP Company has a preliminary cash balance of $25,000 and an agreement with the bank that it will keep a minimum balance of $20,000 and that IP Company has a beginning loan balance of $12,000.

= $32,000 - $25,000
= $7,000
The federal gas tax has been stuck at 18.4cents¢ a gallon since 1993. Today, Americans are driving fewer miles, and vehicles have become more fuel-efficient. Less gas consumption means less gas-tax revenue to repair the nation's roads. Source: Bloomberg News, July 17, 2014 Would a tax per mile driven by more efficient or less efficient than a tax per gallon of gasoline? Which tax would be more regressive? Explain your answers.
Answer:
1. A Tax per mile driven would be more efficient than a tax per gallon of gasoline.
2. A tax per gallon of gasoline is more regressive. The tax is based on a fixed dollar per gallon since 1993. instead of being based on a percentage per the price of gasoline per gallon. With the current rate, the price of gasoline per gallon may even be less than the tax. One can then ask, "what is the purpose of the tax?" Is the tax a road tax or a per gallon use tax?
Explanation:
When the federal gas tax remains at 18.4 cents per gallon for a very long period, the tax can be described as regressive as it does not take into consideration the trend that Americans are driving fewer miles, and vehicles have become more fuel-efficient. This means that the gas tax is not fit for purpose. If its purpose is to generate revenue for road repairs, then instead of a gallon tax, government should institute a road use tax.
Pauley Company needs to determine a markup for a new product. Pauley expects to sell 15,000 units and wants a target profit of $22 per unit. Additional information is as follows:
Variable product cost per unit $19
Variable administrative cost per unit 11
Total fixed overhead 13,500
Total fixed administrative 21,000
Using the variable cost method, what markup percentage to variable cost should be used?
Answer:
81%
Explanation:
Calculation for the markup percentage to variable cost that should be used
Using this formula
Markup percentage=[(Target profit + Fixed overhead costs + Fixed administrative costs) / Total variable costs
Let plug in the formula
Markup percentage=[($22*15,000 units)+$13,500+$21,000]/$30×15,000)
Markup percentage=($330,000+$13,500+$21,000)/$450,000
Markup percentage=$364,500/$450,000
Markup percentage=0.81*100
Markup percentage=81%
Calculation for Total variable costs
Variable product cost per unit $19
Variable administrative cost per unit $11
Total variable costs =$30
Therefore the markup percentage to variable cost that should be used will be 81%
Suppose taxi fares from Logan Airport to downtown Boston is known to be normally distributed and a sample of seven taxi fares produces a mean fare of $22.31 and a 95% confidence interval of [$20.5051, $24.2091]. Which of the following statements is a valid explanation of the confidence interval.
A) 95% of all taxi fares are between $20.51 and $24.21.
B) We are 95% confident that a randomly selected taxi fare will be between $20.51 and $24.21.
C) The mean amount of a taxi fare is $22.31, 95% of the time.
D) We are 95% confident that the average taxi fare between Logan Airport and downtown Boston will fall between $20.51 and $24.21.
Answer: D) We are 95% confident that the average taxi fare between Logan Airport and downtown Boston will fall between $20.51 and $24.21.
Explanation:
The Confidence interval allows one to speculate between which values the average of a population will be. In a 95% confidence interval, this means that we are 95% certain that the average value of a variable will be between the higher and lower limits set by the interval.
The 95% confidence interval here has an upper limit of $24.2091 and a lower limit of $20.5051 for taxi fares from Logan Airport to downtown Boston. This means that with a 95% certainty, the taxi charge from Logan Airport to downtown Boston will be between these 2 charges so you can expect to pay an amount between them.
Discuss three major factors that contribute to an employee's decision to join a union. Discuss the five reasons that have contributed to the trend of decline in unionization g
Answer:
The answer is below
Explanation:
Three major factors that contribute to an employee's decision to join a union.
1. Greater Bargaining Power
As an individual employee, it can be difficult to negotiate for wage increase or better working condition generally. However, being a member Union, together the group can negotiate and demand for what they feel is right for their members. In a rare occasion, the threat of a strike by a Union is a great tool to bargain well with the employer.
2. Minimize Discrimination
As a Union, it is easier to demand for equality in terms of wage, working condition, promotion, leave etc. Unlike individual employee, who may be facing discrimination from his or her supervisor as to employee related issue. Union can ensure the management used the right policies that seek for equality among all its employees without favoritism or discrimination.
3. Sense of Security
An employee may join the Union on the basis that, Union can save them against abrupt dismissal or other types of work insecurities including accident, injury, illness etc.
Also, Union can help secure retirement benefits and ensure the management improve on the employees' welfare generally.
Five reasons that have contributed to the trend of decline in unionization
1. Irrelevance appearance of the Union:
Many workers believe that Union is not necessary because in the time of economic boom, getting wage increase and other working benefits can be gotten be individual employee and not necessarily through a Union, and at the same time, during economic downturn, unions often times don't have the capacity to protect their members from layoffs, wage and benefit reductions and tougher working conditions.
2. Poor Image of the Union:
Many employers and employees tend to view union with negativity, in the sense that, often times, their demands can be unreasonable, and are characterized by issue of labor racketeering, mob influence and embezzlement.
3. Unions are Seen as Political:
For some employees, they believe that Union tend to use their money or Union dues to support a political candidate. This in turn has made some employees who are neutral, not wanting to join the Union.
4. Reliance on goverment:
Many employees now believe that, government, not Union gives better form of security and voice to air their opinions. These includes pensions, healthcare, protection.
5. Global competition and deregulation in Unionized industries:
Since most of the companies or industries that have union has been deregulated, this has increased its competition, there by, making the need for union not really necessary, because with or without Union, one may still faces sack.

Annabelle owns an Italian ice shop. If she decided to expand the size of her shop so that she could sell more Italian ices, how would she know if she is experiencing economies of scale in the long run
Answer:
her long-run average cost of selling each Italian ice decreases.
Explanation:
Economies of scale is when a firm produces more units of goods or services on a much larger scale, with very little input cost(average cost). Invariably, this implies that the production units of a firm increases as it grows while having a decreased input costs.
A firm will experience economies of scale in the long run if it's average total costs(cost per unit required for production which remains the same irrespective of output) decreases as it increases its scale of production.

Pattison Corporation is a service company that measures its output by the number of customers served. The company has provided the following fixed and variable cost estimates that it uses for budgeting purposes. Fixed Element per Month Variable Element per Customer Served Revenue $5,500 Employee salaries and wages $46,300 $1,000 Travel expenses $ 500 Other expenses $32,500 When the company prepared its planning budget at the beginning of May, it assumed that 20 customers would have been served. However, 17 customers were actually served during May. The activity variance for "Travel expenses" for May would have been closest to:
Answer:
Pattison Corporation
Activity Variance for "Travel expenses" for May would have been closest to:
$1,500 Favorable
Explanation:
Data and Calculations:
Fixed Element Variable Element per
per Month Customer Served
Revenue $5,500
Employee salaries
and wages $46,300 $1,000
Travel expenses $ 500
Other expenses $32,500
The Travel Expenses Activity Variance = Actual cost minus budgeted cost
= $8,500 - $10,000
= $1,500 Favorable
Actual travel expenses = ($500 x 17)
= $8,500
Budgeted travel expenses = ($500 x 20)
= $10,000
Pattison Corporation's activity variance for Travel Expenses for the month of May is the difference between the actual travel expenses and the budgeted travel expenses. The budgeted expenses are based on budgeted number of customers served in May while the actual expenses are based on actual number of customers served in May.
Harvey’s Hardware is thinking about starting a line of lawnmowers to serve its customer base in the summer. The lawnmowers would be priced at $100 and Harvey the manager believes that they would sell 3 units. They have the following estimated costs.
Units Produced Labor Cost Total cost
0 0 100
1 50 150
2 100 200
3 200 300
4 350 450
What is the marginal cost of producing the third unit?
a. $400
b. $300
c. $200
d. $100
Answer:
Harvey's Hardware
Marginal cost of producing the third lawnmowers:
d. $100
Explanation:
Harvey's marginal cost for producing the third unit of lawnmowers is the additional cost that resulted when the total cost increased from $200 to $300. However, it can be deciphered from the case that the marginal cost for Harvey, which it is supposed to be a variable cost, is traceable to the direct labor costs. This implies that the fixed cost element for Harvey in the production of the lawnmowers has been relatively fixed at $100. It does not vary with the volume of production, while the direct labor costs vary with the volume of lawnmowers produced by Harvey.

7.. Getaway Travel Company reported net income for 2021 in the amount of $50,000. During 2021, Getaway declared and paid $2,000 in cash dividends on its nonconvertible preferred stock. Getaway also paid $10,000 cash dividends on its common stock. Getaway had 40,000 common shares outstanding from January 1 until 10,000 new shares were sold for cash on July 1, 2021. A 2-for-1 stock split was granted on July 5, 2021. What is the 2021 basic earnings per share
Answer:Earnings per share fOR 2021= 0.53
Explanation:
Earnings per share =Total earnings available to shareholders(Net income - preferred dividends )/Weighted Average Outstanding shares
Net income = $50,000
preferred dividend= $2,000
Total earnings available to common shareholders = $50,000 - $2000= $48,000
using a 2-1 stock spilt , outstanding shares= 40,000 x 2 + 10,000 x 6/12(jan- 1st july ) x 2 = 80,000 + 10,000 = $90,000
Earnings per share = $48,000/ $90,000 =0.53

Which of the following promises is subject to the "strict performance" standard? Assume that performance of the promise is not an express condition of the promisee's duty to perform. cousrse hero
Answer:
A promise to deliver a deed
Explanation:
The term, 'strict performance' is used to describe a contract between two parties. A contract is an agreement between two parties, and it is legally binding. When discharging contracts involving services, 'substantial performance' is required. For example, if I tell a painter to paint my house blue except for the kitchen and storeroom which should be painted white, and he does accordingly but failed in painting the kitchen white, he has performed substantially even though there was a minor breach. The consequences of which would be borne by him.
'Strict performance' is required in contracts where the terms are stated in express terms and the standards are very high. A 'deed' is such a contract because it is a document specifying the legal rights of a person or the ownership of a property. It requires the signatures of the two parties. Therefore, strict performance and adherence to the contractual deed are required.
Gilley Co. had 200,000 shares of common stock, 20,000 shares of convertible preferred stock, and $1,000,000 of 10% convertible bonds outstanding during 2015. The preferred stock is convertible into 40,000 shares of common stock. During 2015, Gilley paid dividends of $.90 per share on the common stock and $3.00 per share on the preferred stock. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 45 shares of common stock. The net income for 2015 was $600,000 and the income tax rate was 30%.
Diluted earnings per share for 2015 is:_____________ (rounded to the nearest penny)
Answer:
Gilley Co.
Diluted earnings per share for 2015 is:_____________ $1.68
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of common stock shares = 200,000
Number of convertible preferred = 40,000
Number of convertible bonds = 45,000 ($1,000,000/$1,000 x 45)
Total shares = 285,000
Earnings = $600,000
Income tax (180,000)
Net Income $420,000
Plus preferred dividend = $60,000
Adjusted net income = $480,000
EPS = $480,000/285,000
= $1.68
b) After deducting income tax expense to arrive at the income after tax, then add the dividends of preferred stockholders before arriving at the adjusted net income for computing the earnings per share.
Each year, public schools are rewarded with bigger budgets for achieving a rating of "excellent" or "recommended" and are punished for rating "needs improvement." These ratings are based on meeting thresholds on a broad set of measures such as attendance rates, graduation rates, standardized test scores, SAT scores, and so on. True or False: This funding structure incentivizes schools to seek out and serve lower-performing students. True False
Answer:
Each year, public schools are rewarded with bigger budgets for achieving a rating of "excellent" or "recommended" and are punished for rating "needs improvement." These ratings are based on meeting thresholds on a broad set of measures such as attendance rates, graduation rates, standardized test scores, SAT scores, and so on. True or False
This funding structure incentivizes schools to seek out and serve lower-performing students. True False
Explanation:
The funding structure is meant to encourage public schools for improved performance in all the performance measures. These performance measures are the means to judge whether proper application is being achieved with the funds provided by the government to such schools. They also encourage healthy competition among public schools when followed judiciously. Since they have some internal and external benchmarks, the performance measures are like a balanced scorecard for performance evaluation.

If a company has the following data, is the budget variance favorable or unfavorable? Budgeted Sales $10,000 Actual Sales. $8,000
Answer:
$2,000 unfavorable
Explanation:
The computation of the budget variance is shown below:
Budget variance is
= Budgeted sales - actual sales
where,
Budgeted sales is $10,000
And the actual sales is $8,000
Now placing these values to the above formula
So, the budget variance is
= $10,000 - $8,000
= $2,000 unfavorable
Since the actual sales is less than the budgeted sales so the same is to be unfavorable else it is favorable
True or false: At 2019 year-end, a government has $25,000 of outstanding encumbrances. The 2019 Budgetary Comparison Scheduled will include the $25,000 whether or not the encumbrances lapse at year-end.
Answer:
True.
Explanation:
The 2019 Budgetary Comparison Schedule will include the $25,000 whether or not the encumbrances lapse at the year-end, either as outstanding encumbrances or settled encumbrances. These $25,000 encumbrances are budget reservations of appropriations so that they can be used to settle specified expenditures in the future. The purpose of making these reservations is to signal that the expenditures have been earmarked so that their cash allocations are not used for other purposes.
A company incurs $4,050,000 of overhead each year in three departments: Ordering and Receiving, Mixing, and Testing. The company prepares 2,000 purchase orders, works 50,000 mixing hours, and performs 1,500 tests per year in producing 200,000 drums of Goo and 600,000 drums of Slime. The following data are available: Department Expected use of Driver Cost Ordering and Receiving 2,000 $1,200,000 Mixing 50,000 1,500,000 Testing 1,500 1,350,000 Production information for Goo is as follows: Department Expected use of Driver Ordering and Receiving 400 Mixing 20,000 Testing 500 Compute the amount of overhead assigned to Goo. $2,760,000.
Answer:
$1,290,000
Explanation:
Goo:
Ordering and Receiving = 400 / 2,000 = 20%
Mixing = 20,000 / 50,000 = 40%
Testing = 500 / 1,500 = 33.33%
allocated overhead costs:
Ordering and Receiving = 20% x $1,200,000 = $240,000
Mixing = 40% x $1,500,000 = $600,000
Testing = 33.33% x $1,350,000 = $450,000
total allocated overhead costs = $1,290,000
