In 2019, Martin had two employers during the year. Both employers withheld Social Security tax from his wages in the amounts of $4,314.05 and $4,274.75. What amount can Martin claim as a credit against his income tax when he files his income tax return

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$1241.80

Explanation:

From the given information:

the social security taxes withheld by both employers are $4314.05 and $4274.75 respectively.

Let's recall that the maximum amount the IRS can also withhold from wages is $7347.00.

Therefore;

the required amount that can be claimed as a credit is:

= $4,314.05 +  $4,274.75 - $7347.00

= $1241.80

Answer 2

Answer:

$349

Explanation:

1) 4,314.05 + 4,274.75 = 8,588.80

2) Social security withheld max: 132,900 * 6.2% = 8,239.80

3) 8,588.80 - 8,239.80 = 349

Answers

Answer:

$13.55

Explanation:

The contribution margin per unit is computed as;

= Selling price - (Direct materials + Direct labor + Variable manufacturing overhead + Sales commission + Variable administrative expense)

= $28.10 - ($7.50 + $3.85 + $1.55 + $1.05 + $0.60)

= $28.10 - $14.55

= $13.55

Therefore , the contribution margin per unit is $13.55

Answers

Answer: $65000

Explanation:

For the month of April, the conversion cost that was incurred would be calculated as:

Beginning inventory of Direct Materials = $18000

Add: Purchase = $32000

Total cost of Direct Materials available = $50000

Less: Ending inventory of Direct Material = $15000

Therefore, Direct material used:

= $50000 - $15000 = $35000

Add: Direct labor = $30000

Conversion cost incurred = $35000 + $30000 = $65000

1. Friedman distinguishes between the two concepts that (a) businesses really do act in ways to maximize profit and (b) businesses have a moral responsibility (or, as he puts it, a social responsibility) to act to maximize profit. How does he defend the latter position? (See both the Friedman and Sandbu readings)

Answers

Explanation:

Friedman defends the position that companies have a social responsibility to act to maximize profit, in the sense that, the primary function of companies is to generate profit. The author goes against the growing opinions in society that companies must have social responsibility, that is, they need to create a positive and sensitive corporate image to please political and society interests and counter or even soften the words and actions its central purpose, which is profit generation. For him, social responsibility cannot be politicized in order to be an obligation of companies, as it limits freedom and interests arising from the business.

a) %change in nominal GDP = [(105 - 100) / 100] * 100 = 5%

%change in real GDP = [(99 - 100) / 100] * 100 = -1%

b) GDP deflator is = [Nominal GDP / Real GDP]. %change in GDP deflator = [(106.06 - 100) / 100] * 100 = 6.06%

Manufacturing activities consist of materials, production, and sales activities. The materials activity consists of the purchase and issuance of materials to production. The production activity consists of converting materials into finished goods. At this stage in the process, the materials, labor, and overhead costs have been incurred and the schedule of cost of goods manufactured is prepared. The sales activity consists of selling some or all of finished goods available for sale. At this stage, the cost of goods sold is determined.

From the list below, select the items that are classified as a materials activity.

Assume the smart watch industry is a perfectly competitive industry that uses a specialized input. If this industry experiences an increase in demand, we might expect that in the long run: Multiple Choice neither input nor output prices will increase. both input and output prices will increase. only input prices will increase. only output prices will increase.

Answers

Answer:

Option B, both input and output prices will increase

Explanation:

Since the demand far smart watches is increasing, the price of watches will escalate to cater the opportunity cost. With the rising demand for smart watch, the demand for specialized input will also increase. Considering the growth in demand for specialized input, its cost shall also escalate to take the benefit of opportunity. Along with raw material, variable costs such as transportation, manpower, electricity etc.  will also increase both in input (bringing raw material and producing final product) and output (export of the final product)

In nut shell, both the input and output price will increase.

A review of Parson Corporation's accounting records found that at a volume of 90,000 units, the variable and fixed cost per unit amounted to $8 and $4, respectively. On the basis of this information, what amount of total cost would Parson anticipate at a volume of 85,000 units

Answers

Answer:

Total cost= $1,040,000

Explanation:

For 90,000 units:

Unitary variable cost= $8

Unitary fixed cost= $4

First, we need to calculate the total fixed cost:

Total fixed cost= 4*90,000= $360,000

Now, we can determine the total cost for 85,000 units:

Total cost= 85,000*8 + 360,000

Total cost= $1,040,000

Suppose the United States is currently producing 100tons of hamburgers and 45tons of tacos and Mexico is currently producing 20tons of hamburgers and 25tons of tacos. If the United States and Mexico each specialize in producing only one good​ (the good for which each has a comparative​ advantage), then a total of nothingadditional​ ton(s) of hamburgers can be produced for the two countries combined ​(enter a numeric response using an​ integer)

Answers

Answer: 50 additional tons of hamburgers

Explanation:

United States opportunity costs:

Hamburger opportunity cost = 45/100 = 0.45 tons of tacos

Taco opportunity cost = 100/45 = 2.22 tones of hamburgers

Mexico opportunity cost:

Hamburger opportunity cost = 25/20 = 1.25 tons of tacos

Taco opportunity cost = 20/25 = 0.8 tones of hamburgers

US should specialize in Hamburger production because they have a lower opportunity cost.

If both countries combined production of hamburgers then the total would be:

= 100 + 20

= 120 tons of hamburgers

There is missing information on this question which is the US production of hamburgers when it produces 0 tacos. We shall assume that number to be 170 tons of hamburgers.

The total additional tons produced would be:

= US tons when producing only hamburgers - Combined hamburger production

= 170 - 120

= 50 additional tons of hamburgers

a. $208,400
b. $405,500
c. $440,800
d. $201,500

Answers

Answer:

Direct material used= $183,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Direct Materials Purchased 171,000

Direct Materials Inventory, Beginning 18,000

Direct Materials Inventory, Ending 6,000

To calculate the direct material used, we need to use the following formula:

Direct material used= beginning inventory + purchases - ending inventory

Direct material used= 18,000 + 171,000 - 6,000

Direct material used= $183,000

Prove:

cost of goods manufactured= beginning WIP + direct materials + direct labor + allocated manufacturing overhead - Ending WIP

cost of goods manufactured= 30,000 + 183,000 + 55,000 + 112,000 - 40,000

cost of goods manufactured= $340,000

Derek will deposit $9,359.00 per year for 18.00 years into an account that earns 4.00%, The first deposit is made next year. He has $18,418.00 in his account today. How much will be in the account 49.00 years from today

Answers

Answer:

FV= $904,322.05

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the future value of the 18 deposits 19 years from now. Also the value of the $18,418 19 years from now.

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= annual deposit= 9,359

n= 18

i= 0.04

FV= {9,359*[(1.04^18) - 1]} / 0.04

FV= $240,015.42

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 18,418*(1.04^19)

FV= $38,803.95

Total FV= 240,015.42 + 38,803.95= $278,819.37

Finally, the value of the account for the remaining 30 years:

FV= 278,819.37*(1.04^30)

FV= $904,322.05

None of Betserai's friends bothered to save their money, either. Rupert was Betserai's American pen pal and heard of Betserai's story and was extremely confused. He was taught that Zimbabwe was one of the poorer countries in the world, or at the least substantially poorer than the United States. Which statement best explains this phenomenon?
A. A country's wealth is based on the amount of money in circulation.
B. Zimbabwe was in the midst of an incredible economic boom, substantially increasing the wealth of all its citizens.
C. Rapid rises in price levels made the Zimbabwean dollar near worthless in terms of purchasing power.
D. All of these statements could explain what happened in Zimbabwe in 2008.

Answers

Answer:

C. Rapid rises in price levels made the Zimbabwean dollar near worthless in terms of purchasing power.

Explanation:

As in the given situation it is mentioned that 10 year old boy has the bill of billion dollar this represented that the country really printed the bill of billion dollar. It means that the attempt is to be done in order to print a currenct note of higher denomination that also represent that the country would increased such level also at the same time a big amount is required to purchased the goods and services.

Also the high denomination values would not consist of actual value as they have purchasing power i.e. negligible

Answer:

$4,355.26  

Explanation:

The net present value is the present value of future cash flows expected from the project minus the initial investment outlay

initial investment outlay=working capital investment = -$10,000

Years 1-5 cash inflow=$2,000

Year 6 cash inflow=normal cash inflows+release of working capital

Year 6 cash inflow=$2,000+$10,000=$12,000

the present value of a future cash flow=cash flow/(1+r)^n

n is 1 for year cash inflow 2 for year 2 cash inflow, 3 for year 3 cash inflow and so on

NPV=-$10,000+$2,000/(1+10%)^1+$2,000/(1+10%)^2+$2,000/(1+10%)^3+$2,000/(1+10%)^4+$2,000/(1+10%)^5+$12,000/(1+10%)^6

NPV=$4,355.26

The chart below gives prices and output information for the country of Utopia. Use this information to calculate real and nominal GDP for both years. Use 2001 as the base year.
Year 2000 2001
Price Quantity Price Quantity
Ice Cream $7.00 600 $3.00 400
Blue Jeans $70.00 20 $20.00 90
Laptops $300.00 5 $300.00 5
2000 nominal GDP = $_________
2001 nominal GDP = $_________
2000 real GDP = $_________
2001 real GDP = $_________

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

As we know that

Nominal GDP = Sum of (Present Year Price × Present Year Quantity)

And,  

Real GDP = Sum of (Base Year Price × Present Year Quantity)

Now

(a) Nominal GDP, 2000 is

= $[(7 × 600) + (70 × 20) + (300 × 5)]

= $4,200 + $1,400 + $1,500

= $7,100

(b) Nominal GDP, 2001 is

= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]

= ($1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500)

= $4,500

(c) Real GDP, 2000 is

= $[(3 × 600) + (20 × 20) + (300 × 5)]

= $1,800 + $400 + 1,500

= $3,700

(d) Real GDP, 2001 is

= $[(3 × 400) + (20 × 90) + (300 × 5)]

= $1,200 + $1,800 + $1,500

= $4,500

Marge owns land and a building (held for investment) with an adjusted basis of $75,000 and a fair market value of $250,000. The property is subject to a mortgage of $400,000. Because Marge is in arrears on the mortgage payments, the creditor is willing to accept the property in return for canceling the amount of the mortgage.
a. How can the adjusted basis of the property be less than the amount of the mortgage?
b. If the creditor's offer is accepted, what are the effects on the amount realized, the adjusted basis, and the realized gain or loss for Marge?

Suppose a city block was going to be used for a parking lot in both New York City and a small town. The opportunity cost would be multiple choice 2 lower in New York City because the alternative uses of the city block are more varied. lower in a small city because the alternative uses of the city block are more varied. greater in New York City because the alternative uses of the city block are more valuable. greater in a small city because the alternative uses of the city block are more valuable.

Answers

Answer:

c. The opportunity cost would be greater in New York City because the alternative uses of the block are more valuable.

Explanation:

Value of piece of land would be much higher in New York City in comparison to a small town.

This means that if a piece of land is used for parking lot in the New York City then the alternative use of such land would be more valuable in comparison to the utilization of similar piece of land in a small town.

Higher the value of alternative uses, higher would be the opportunity cost. So, the opportunity cost would be greater in New York City because the alternative uses of the block are more valuable.

Answer:

1. The correct category for each of the following items:

Cash In/Income:

Personal income

Business Income

Cash Out/Expense:

Cost of business trip = variable

State tax liability = fixed

Clothing purchases = variable

2. For example, your mortgage would be considered a fixed expense, because the total amount does not vary.  Conversely, grocery bills would be considered variable, because the actual amount is not fixed but varies.

Explanation:

Variable cost or expense has a fixed cost per unit, with the total amount varying, depending on the units or quantities consumed.  Fixed cost does have a fixed total amount within the relevant range, but the cost per unit varies.
