Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": Shareholders who are risk averse may prefer some dividends over the promise of future capital gains.

Explanation:

A dividend is a cash distribution by a company to its shareholders out of the profits of a period. Capital Gain refers to the increase in the value of a capital asset or an investment upon sale. From the two of them, dividends are safer investments since they do not rely exclusively on the sales of an asset.  

Thus, a conservative investor is likely to choose dividends over the promise of capital gains.

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

A. = (15% X $2M) + (21% X $2M) = $720,000. Since there is no mechanism for mitigating double taxation, the branch profit will be taxed on the to tax rate of 15% and 21% which is $300,000 and $420,000.

B. The total tax for $2m branch profit if US corporations can remove foreign based profit from US taxation will be just the 15% x $2m = $300,000.

C.If they are allowed to take deductions for foreign income taxes, the total tax on the $2m branch profit will be (21% -15%) x $2m = $120,000.

Explanation:

D.1. If credit are allowed for foreign income tax paid, total tax will be ($2m - $300,000 been foreign tax paid) x 21% = $357,000

D.2.

If the charge foreign income taxes at 30% and US corporations can claim refundable credit for foreign income tax paid on foreign source income = ($2m - $300,000 been the foreign income tax paid) = $1 700,000 x 30% = $510,000

The demand for yak butter is given by 150 – 3pd and the supply is 3ps – 30, where Pa is the price paid by demanders and ps is th
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

1) Attached

2) 150-3p = 3p-30

3) P=30, Q=60

4) 150-3p = 3p-90

5) P=40 and Q=30

6) Ps=Pd+10

7) P=35, Q=45

8) P=45, Q=45

Explanation:

We can write the equation for the quantity demanded as:

Q_d=150-3p_d

And the equation for the quantity supplied as:

Q_s=3p_s-30

1) Attached

2) The equilibrium price can be calculated by making the quantity supplied equal to quantity demanded:

Q_s=Q_d\\\\3p-30=150-3p\\\\6p=150+30=180\\\\p=180/6=30

3) The equilibrium price is P=30.

The equilibrium quantity can be calculated as:

Q_s=150-3*30=150-90=60

The equilibrium quantity is Q=60.

4) The supply now becomes:

Q'_s=3p_s-90

The equation for the new equilibrium price is:

Q_d=Q'_s\\\\150-3p=3p-90\\\\6p=150+90=240\\\\p=240/6=40

Qd=150-3*40=150-120=30

5) The new equilibrium is at p=40 and Q=30

6) They will receive

p_s=p_d+subsidy=p_d+10

7)  In this case, the quantity supplied becomes:

Q_s=3p_s-90=3(p+10)-90=3p+30-90=3p-60

The new price equilibrium becomes P=35:

Q_s=Q_d\\\\3p-60=150-3p\\\\6p=150+60\\\\p=210/6=35

The quantity for this equilibrium is Q=45:

Q_d=150-3*35=150-105=45

8) Now, the equations for demand and supply are:

Q_s=3p-90\\\\Q_d=150-3(p-10)=150-3p+30=180-3p

The equilibrium price and quantity becomes:

Q_d=Q_s\\\\180-3p=3p-90\\\\6p=180+90\\\\p=270/6=45\\\\\\Q_d=180-3*45=180-135=45

Dr FICA tax (Medicare) expense 224.75

Dr FUTA tax expense 93

Dr SUTA tax expense 837

    Cr FICA tax (OASDI) payable 961

    Cr FICA tax (Medicare) payable 224.75

    Cr FUTA tax payable 93

    Cr SUTA tax payable 837

Explanation:

Since we are calculating only payroll taxes, the wages expense is not included in this journal entry.

total payroll for the 10 employees = 10 x $1,550 = $15,500

each employee has accumulated earnings of $1,550 x 3 = $4,650

Decko Industries reported the following monthly data: Units produced 52,000 units Sales price $ 33 per unit Direct materials $ 1
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

$1,275,000

Explanation:

The computation of the  contribution margin is shown below:

As we know that

Contribution margin = Sales - variable cost

or

Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit

And, the direct material per unit, direct labor per unit, and the  Variable overhead per unit are variable cost

So, if 50,000 units are sold, the contribution margin per unit is

= 50,000 × ($33 - $1.50 - $2.50 - $3.50)

= $1,275,000
