Answer:

a. Regular annual salary = $29,500

b. Sales commission = $13,750

c. Total annual earnings = $43,250

Explanation:

a. Regular annual salary is constant and fixed = $29,500

b. Sales commission for sales above $150,000 to $200,000 = 8.5%

On sales above $200,000 Sales commission = 10%

Actual Sales for the year = $295,000

Sales Commission

= $200,000 - $150,000 = $50,000 \times 8.5% = $4,250

+ $295,000 - $200,000 = $95,000 \times 10% = $9,500

Total commission = $4,250 + $9,500 = $13,750

c. Total annual earnings =  Annual salary + Total commission

= $29,500 + $13,750 = $43,250

Final Answer

a. Regular annual salary = $29,500

b. Sales commission = $13,750

c. Total annual earnings = $43,250

On June 1, 2018, Dirty Harry Co. borrowed cash by issuing a 6-month noninterest-bearing note with a maturity value of $480,000 a
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Ans. the carrying value of the note as of September 30, 2018 is $404,006

Explanation:

Hi, the note was issued to mature in 6 months, and 4 months had passed, therefore there are still 2 months left for the note to mature, in other words, this works just as a non-coupon bond which you price in terms of its discount rate and the time remaining for this instrument to mature.

With that in mind, what we need to do is to find the time remaining for the bond to mature, so remember that it was issued on June,1 2018, and in order to facilitate our calculations, we say: "From June 1 to June 30, there is a month..." Now our date will match its maturity, so we just count months until September 30 and we found out that the result is 4 months, it means that this note has 2 months until it matures.

The formula to use is as follows.

Value(Sep.2018)=\frac{IssuingValue}{(1+Disc.Rate)^{n} }

Where n is the months to its maturity.

Everything should look like this:

Value(Sep.2018)=\frac{480,000}{(1+0.09)^{2} }=404,006

Best of luck.

Lawrence Reed in his article "The Role of Incentive" states that the best way to curb pollution and misuse of resources is to?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Like the title of the article states, all economy relayed choices are the results of an incentive or disincentive a potential polluter faces. He gave the example of the Lake Erie, stating that is highly reasonable (although highly unethical) it is polluted, as it is financially efficient to simply dump garbage in the lake, rather than invest in a recycling or waste management system. He also added, that since the lake is a public good, no one will look at the pollution as a serious concern, since it isn't owned by anybody.

All of this implies that a structured, incentive system has to be created in order to curb pollution.

Last year, Kaylor Equipment had $15,900 of sales, $500 of net new equity, dividend payments of $75, an addition to retained earn
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

$1,135.05

Explanation:

Given:

Sales = $15,900

Net new equity = $500

Dividend payments = $75

Retained earnings = $418

Depreciation = $680

Interest expense = $511

Tax rate = 21% = 0.21

Now,

Net income = Retained earnings + Dividend payments

= $418 + $75

= $493

Profit before tax = Net income ÷ ( 1 - tax rate )

= $493 ÷ ( 1 - 0.21 )

= $624.05

Therefore,

Earnings before interest and taxes

= Profit before tax + Interest expense

= $624.05 + $511

= $1,135.05

Casey has ​$1 comma 000 to invest in a certificate of deposit. Her local bank offers her 2.50​% on a​ twelve-month FDIC-insured
frutty [35]

Answer:

the risk premium = return of the deposit - risk free deposit return

risk premium = 5.2% - 2.5% = 2.7% or $27 for a $1,000 CD

Besides the investment risk, Casey must also consider the inflation rate and taxes. The inflation rate lowers the real interest earned by Casey: real interest rate = nominal interest rate - inflation rate. And she must also find out how the return from the non-financial institution is taxed, if it can be taxed as capital gains or regular income.
