Answer:

Reduction in Tax Needed = $ 13.33

Explanation:

Tax Multiplier shows magnitude of change (decrease) in income due to tax change (rise) .

Tax Multiplier = ΔY / ΔT = - MPC / (1- MPC)

Given : Change in Income needed [ΔY] = 40

MPC = 0.75

Putting in formula ;

40 / ΔT  = - 0.75 / (1- 0.75)

40 / ΔT = - 0.75 / 0.25

40 / ΔT  =  - 3

ΔT = - 40/ 3

ΔT = - 13.33

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Periodic payment = $3,881.88 (Approx).

Explanation:

Given:

Present value of annuity = $36,500

Rate = 6.5% = 0.065

Number of payment = 15

Computation:

Present\ value\ of\ annuity = periodic\ payment[\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} ]

36,500 = periodic\ payment[\frac{1-(1+0.065)^{-15}}{0.065} ]\\\\36,500 = periodic\ payment[\frac{1-(1.065)^{-15}}{0.065} ]\\\\36,500 = periodic\ payment[\frac{1-0.388826524}{0.065} ]\\\\36,500 = periodic\ payment[\frac{0.611173476}{0.065} ]\\\\36,500 = periodic\ payment[9.40266886 ]\\\\periodic\ payment = 3,881.87658

Periodic payment = $3,881.88 (Approx).

Almost every other business in this universe now relies upon group thinking rather than individual approach to anything.

It has several advantages, some of them are pointed out below:

o) Equality bias, when there are group discussion, this means that everyone has a part of say in the final decision and that leads to equality bias, which is beneficial.

o) More alternatives are generated, it is a fact that when an individual takes a decision, he/she is neglecting a lot of other options to explore which could be a lot beneficial for the business.

o) More acceptance of the final decision, Since the final decision taken is with the approval and consent of everyone, there is a possibility that the final decision will be more acceptable.

o) Lastly, It creates Synergy, synergy is the idea that a decision as a whole is better than in parts.

TarHeel Corporation reported pretax book income of $1,026,000. During the current year, the net reserve for warranties increased
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Effective accounting tax rate =  17.61%

Explanation:

given data

Pre Tax book income = $1,026,000

Reserve for warranties = $101,300

Tax depreciation = $206,500

Deduction inform of dividends received = $55,200

to find out

accounting effective tax rate

solution

we assume here tax rate is 21 %

So Taxable income will be here as  

Taxable income = [ $1,026,000 + $101,300 ] - [ $206,500 + $55,200 ]

Taxable income = $1,127,300 - $261,700

Taxable income = $865,600

Tax @21% = $865,600 × 21%

Tax  = $181,776

Effective accounting tax rate will be

Effective accounting tax rate = \frac{181776}{1026000}  

Effective accounting tax rate =  17.61%

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Activity Rate for Setup = $18

Explanation:

Given

Activity Total Activity-Base Usage Budgeted Activity Cost

Setups 10,000 $180,000

Inspections 24,000 $120,000

Assembly (dlh) 80,000 $400,000

Activity Rate is calculated by: Budget Activity Cost/Activity Base Usage

Where Activity Base (for Setup) = 10,000

Budget Activity Cost = $180,000

So, Activity Rate for Setup = $180,000/10,000

Activity Rate for Setup = $18

Hence, the calculated activity Rate for setups is $18
