Answer: $1091.61
Explanation:
From the question, we are told that fifteen years ago, Mr. Fairhold paid $50,000 for a single-premium annuity contract and that this year, he began receiving a $1,300 monthly payment that will continue for his life and based on his age, he can expect to receive $312,000. The amount of each monthly payment is taxable income to Mr. Fairhold goes thus:
Based on the question, Mr Fairhold will have a tax free return of the $50,000 paid. The exclusion ratio will be the investment divided by the expected return. This will be:
= $50,000/$312,000
= 0.1603
Since he received monthly payment of $1,300 and exclusion ratio is 0.1603, the tax free return on investment will be:
= $1,300 × 0.1603
= $208.39
Taxable annuity payment will now be:
= $1300 - $208.39
= $1091.61
Answer:
a. positive, so Joan considers hamburger to be an inferior good.
Explanation:
Income elasticity is a microeconomic concept that aims to measure the sensitivity of demand in the face of income changes. To calculate the Income elasticity , a formula is used that divides the observed percentage change in quantity (Q) by the percentage change in price income (P): Elasticity = ▲ Q / ▲ P
The percentage change in quantity (▲ Q) and the percentage change in price (▲ P) are calculated by the difference in quantity / price in the two periods divided by the quantity / price of the first period.
▲ Q = (60 -50/60) = 0,16
▲ Q = (40.000 - 30.000/40.000) = 0,25
Elasticity = ▲ Q / ▲ P = 0,16/0,25 = 0,64
Therefore, the elasticity is positive.
This good is considered inferior, because according to microeconomic theory, inferior goods are those whose demand increases when consumer income decreases. This is the opposite of the normal good, which has its demand increased when income increases.
Answer:
$664,000
Explanation:
The computation of the budgeted total manufacturing cost is shown below:
Budgeted total manufacturing costs is
= Fixed cost + Variable cost
= $24,000 + ($16 × 40,000 linear feet of block)
= $24,000 + $640,000
= $664,000
We simply added the fixed cost and the variable cost so that the total budgeted manufacturing cost could come
