Answer:

so savings = $2200

bonds = $4400

and mutual fund = $3400

Explanation:

given data

received bonus = $10,000

savings account paying = 4.5% per year

bonds paying = 5%

mutual fund that returned = 4%

income from these investments = $455

to find out

How much did the worker place in the government bonds

solution

we consider amount invested for 4.5 % is = x

and hen his investment in bonds is = 2x  for 5%

and rest is  10000- x  - 2x

that is = (10000- 3x ) for 4%

so

interest equation will be here

0.045 x + 0.05 (2x) + 0.04 (10000-3x) = 455

solve we get

x = 2200

so savings = $2200

bonds = $4400

and mutual fund = $3400

Giving the following information:

Units= 40,000

The manufacturing cost:

Direct materials $ 75,000

Direct labor 120,000

Variable overhead 45,000

An outside supplier has offered to sell the component for $12.75.

Vest Industries can rent its unused manufacturing facilities for $45,000.

We will take into account only the differential costs.

<u>Make in -house:</u>

Total cost= 75,000 + 120,000 + 45,000= $240,000

<u>Buy:</u>

Total cost= 40,000*12.75 - 45,000= $465,000

If the company buys the component, income will decrease by $225,000.

Barkoff Enterprises, which uses the high-low method to analyze cost behavior, has determined that machine-hours best explain the
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

The utilities cost associated with 1,110 machine hours will be $10,505.

Explanation:

High Low method is a way to calculate the variable and fixed cost element of total cost using lowest level of activity and its cost and highest level of activity and its cost.

In this example The Highest activity of Machine hour is in the month of May and Lowest  activity is in February.

Using high low method:

Variable cost =  ( Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost ) / ( Highest activity - Lowest activity )

Variable cost =  ( Cost in May - Cost in February ) / ( Machine hours in May - Machine Hours in February)

Variable cost =  ( $9,625 - $8,360 ) / ( 950 - 720 )

Variable cost =  $1,265 / 230

Variable cost =  $5.50 per machine hour

Fixed Cost = $8360 - ( 720 x $5.5) = $8360 - $3960 = $4,400

Utility cost of 1110 units = $4,400 + ( 1,110 x 5.5 ) = $4400 + $6,105 = $10,505

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

a. What amount of taxable dividend income, if any, does Madison recognize in 2009?

Madison doesn't have to recognize any income because she is not getting any. Only after Madison decides to sell his stocks will he recognize any taxable income if she makes a gain.

b. What is Madison's income tax basis in her new and existing stock in Badger Corporation, assuming the distribution is non-taxable?

Madison current basis is $100 per stock, and after the stock dividend it will be $100 / 1.1 = $90.91 per stock

c. How would you answer questions a and b if Madison was offered the choice between 1 share of stock in Badger for each 10 shares she owned or $100 cash for each 10 shares she owned in Badger?

then the cash dividend would be $10 per stock, which results in $10 x 1,000 = $10,000 taxable income. Her basis in the stock will remain not change.
