Answer:

a) 7% or 0.07

b) 42% or 0.42

Explanation:

Let's begin by listing out the given information:

Population = 902,

Probability distribution

Strongly support = 0.16 or 16%,

Somewhat support = 0.26 or 26%,

Mixed feelings = ?,

Somewhat oppose = 0.14 or 14%,

Strongly oppose = 0.36 or 36%

Don't know = 0.01 or 1%

a) The summation of every probability of an event (survey) is 100% ⇒ Pr (survey) = 100%

Pr (survey) = Pr [strongly support + somewhat support + mixed feelings + somewhat oppose + strongly oppose + don't know]

100 = 16 + 26 + x + 14 + 36 + 1

To obtain the probability of the 'Mixed feelings' populace, we subtract the summation of all other probabilities from 1 or 100%

x = 100 - (16 + 26 + 14 +36 + 1) = 100 - 93

x = 7% or 0.07

∴ the probability of the 'Mixed feelings' populace is 7% or 0.07

b) Probability of a random adult supporting is given by the summation of the probabilities of the adults who strongly support & those who somewhat support

Pr (support) = Pr (strongly support) + Pr (somewhat support)

Pr (support) = 0.16 + 0.26

Pr (support) = 0.42 or 42%

∴ the probability that a randomly chosen adult supports the casino in Toronto is 42%

Year Ended Inventory year Cost index Inventory Amount

December 31 end costs (relative to base year) at year-end

2021 $340,000 1.02 $333,333

2022 350,000 1.06 $330,189

2023 400,000 1.07 $373,832

2024 430,000 1.10 $390,909

Explanation:

a) Data:

Year Ended Inventory year Cost index

December 31 end costs (relative to base year)

2021 $340,000 1.02

2022 350,000 1.06

2023 400,000 1.07

2024 430,000 1.10

b) The inventory at year-end costs is rebased using the cost index that is relative to the base year, by dividing the inventory costs by the cost index.

Annie is self-employed and has $58,000 in income from her business. She also has investments that generated dividends of $3,000

8090 [49]

First, you need to know the self-employment taxes:
The self-employment tax is 92.35%
Social security tax is 12.4% and Medicare tax is 2.9% = (15.3%)

Dividends and interest are not a part of the income.

58000 * 92.35% *15.3%
Turn the percentages into decimal form in order to multiply. You can do this by moving the decimals over twice or dividing each percentage by 100.

58000*.9235 * .153 = $8,195.

Annie's self-employment tax for the year is $8,195.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

It is cheaper to make the part in house.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Harrison Enterprises currently produces 8,000 units of part B13.

Current unit costs for part B13 are as follows:

Direct materials $12

Direct labor 9

Factory rent 7

Administrative costs 10

General factory overhead (allocated) 7

Total $45

If Harrison decides to buy part B13, 50% of the administrative costs would be avoided.

To calculate whether it is better to make the par in-house or buy, we need to determine which costs are unavoidable.

Unavoidable costs:

Factory rent= 7

Administrative costs= 5

General factory overhead= 7

Total= 17

Now, we can calculate the unitary cost of making the product in-house:

Unitary cost= direct material + direct labor + avoidable administrative costs

Unitary cost= 7 + 5 + 5= $17

It is cheaper to make the part in house.
