Answer:
total savings using CFL light bulbs = $47.09
Explanation:
We can compare the costs of 8,000 hours of lighting:
incandescent light bulbs
- you need 8 incandescent light bulbs to generate 8,000 hours of lighting = 8 x $0.70 = $5.60
- they will consume a total of 150 watts x 8,000 hours = 1,200 kWh x $0.05 per kWh = $60
- total cost = $5.60 + $60 = $65.60
CFL light bulbs
- you need one CFL light bulb to generate 8,000 hours of lighting = $5.71
- it will consume a total of 32 watts x 8,000 = 256 kWh x $0.05 = $12.80
- total cost = $5.71 + $12.80 = $18.51
total savings = $18.51 - $65.60 = -$47.09
Solution:
(1) Maximum possible $25,000 deduction before phase-out
(2) Maximum deduction phase-out is $22,500
[($145,000 AGI - 100,000) × 0.5]
(3) Current year overall loss $2,500 (1) - (2)
(4) Rental loss in current year $8,000
(5) Current year leasing deficit of 2,500 dollars, Lesser of (3) or (4)
Passive loss carry forward $5,500 (4) - (5)

Clearly this isn't a discrimination case, as Rob has a robust background with the company (15 years). Although their work output may be the same, Rob's experience justifies the higher pay.
This is one form of efficiency wage theory, holding that higher wages lead to increased employee productivity. This way, Rob gets an incentive for staying with the company.
