Answer:

(C) $72,000

Explanation:

The deduction for investment interest is limited to the amount of net investment income reported.

If Ramon elects to treat the net capital gain as investment income for purposes of computing the investment interest expense limitation, the deduction will be $72,000 ($34,500 interest + $37,500 net capital gain). If Ramon elects to include the capital gains as investment income, his $37,500 net capital gain will not qualify for beneficial alternative tax rate treatment.

Therefore, he must decide between the tax benefit of an additional deduction of $37,500 versus the benefit of the reduced tax rates applicable to net capital gain.

a job costing system involves the process of accumulating information about the costs associated with a specific production or service job service. This information may be required in order to submit the cost information to a customer under a contract where costs are reimbursed.

This involves the accumulation of the costs of materials, labor, and overheads for a specific job.

How to calculate job costing:

Total job cost= direct materials + direct labor + applied overhead

Calculate labor costs:

Determine how much it cost your organization to hire all workers who will work on the project. Multiple the pay per day rate by the number of workers you have estimate to have.

Calculate material costs:

Calculate the cost of all materials that will be used on the job.

Estimate applied overhead:

This is the most difficult to determine, you will need to determine the total overhead costs factoring into the project. This will include your rental expense for the office as well as administrative costs and depreciation of all equipment used.

Two workers have the job of placing plastic labels on packages before the packages are shipped out. The first worker can place 1
monitta

Answer:

The correct answer is: The second worker.

Explanation:

Productivity is an economic term describing the relationship between outputs as compared to inputs needed to produce those outputs. It is a measure of efficiency. Typically inputs are raw materials, labor, and capital assets. Outputs are generally expressed as either revenue or total units of finished goods.

In the example, a form to measure each worker's productivity is comparing how many plastic labels they can place per hour. Thus:

  • Worker 1: <em>1000 per 1/2 hour (30 minutes) </em>
  • Worker 1: <em>2000 per 1 hour  </em>

  • Worker 2: <em>850 per 1/3 hour (20 minutes)</em>
  • Worker 2: <em>2550 per 1 hour </em>

Then, the second worker is more productive.
