Answer both parts of the following question. a. The San Francisco Chronicle reported that the toll on the Golden Gate Bridge was raised from $2 to $3. Following the toll increase, traffic fell by 5 percent. Based on this information, calculate the arc price elasticity of demand. Is demand elastic or inelastic
Answer:
The answer is "0.1".
Explanation:
Formula:
[tex]\text{Elasticity}= \frac{\% \text{volume changes in demand}}{ \% \text{price rise}}[/tex]
Calculating the value of price percent:
[tex]= \frac{(3-2)}{2} \times 100 \\\\= \frac{1}{2} \times 100 \\\\= \frac{100}{2} \\\\=50 \%[/tex]
Calculating the value of quantity change: [tex]= -5 \%[/tex]
Calculating the value of elasticity:
[tex]= \frac{-5}{50} \\\\ = \frac{-1}{10} \\\\= -0.1[/tex]
Through this convention, the environmental signal is decreased and elasticity =0.1 is achieved until conductivity. Whose comparatively in elasticity is not as high as 1.
As the use of the Internet grows around the world, there must be as easy an exchange of ideas and information as possible between countries. One important issue is opt-in versus opt-out. In general, European websites have opt-in policies while U.S. websites have opt-out policies. Opt-in means customers must ask to be involved in data collection and marketing while opt-out companies automatically include customers in data collection unless the customer specifically asks not to be included. Europeans believe it is unethical to invade someone's privacy. Americans are not nearly as protective of their right to privacy. What ethical factor is illustrated by this example
Answer: Societal culture and norms
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the ethical factor that is illustrated by this example is "societal culture and norms".
Culture simply refers to the way of life with regards to certain group of people. It has to do with the ideas, attitudes and the values that such people have in the group.
With culture, one can be able to make a distinction between rights from wrongs. Therefore, Europeans believing it is unethical to invade someone's privacy and Americans are not nearly as protective of their right to privacy has to do with societal culture and norms.

Compute the 2020 tax liability and the marginal and average tax rates for the following taxpayers. Click here to access the 2020 tax rate schedule. If required, round the tax liability to the nearest dollar. When required, round the average rates to four decimal places before converting to a percentage (i.e. .67073 would be rounded to .6707 and entered as 67.07%). a. Chandler, who files as a single taxpayer, has taxable income of $94,800.
Answer:
Tax liability:
Chandler is in 85,525 - 163,300 bracket.
Liability is:
= 14,605.50 + (24 % * (94,800 - 85,525))

= $16,832
Marginal Tax rate = 24%
Marginal tax rate for 85,525 - 163,300 bracket is 24%.
Average tax rate:
= Tax liability / Taxable income
= 16,832 / 94,800
= 17.76%

Jordan plans to add a porch to her house. The new 16' 18' porch will cost an average of $27 por square foot. Jorden also plans to have a 15' sidewalk poured. The cost of the sidewalk will be an additional gas per foot. The gate on the parch will cost $500.00 extra. What will the total cost be?
Question is incomplete as the cost of the sidewalk is not given :
Assume the sidewalk cost an additional $6 per foot.
Answer:
$8366
Explanation:
Given that :
Size of porch = 16 by 18 feets
Area of porch = (16 * 18) = 288 ft²
Cost per ft² = $27
Cost of porch = ($27 * 288) = $7,776
Sidewalk = 15feets
Cost per foot = $6
Cost of sidewalk = ($6 * 15) = $90
Cost of gate = $500
Total cost :
(cost of porch area + side walk + gate)
($7776 + $90 + $500) = $8366
Kindly note that the cost pwr foot of sidewalk was erroneously excluded and the value employed for the cost was only assumed.

Explanation:
Before prorating the manufacturing overhead costs at the end of 2016, the Cost of Goods Sold and Finished Goods Inventory had applied overhead costs of $57,600 and $21,000 in them, respectively. There was no Work-in-Process at the beginning or end of 2016. During the year, manufacturing overhead costs of $75,000 were actually incurred. The balance in the Applied Manufacturing Overhead was $78,600 at the end of 2016. If the under- or overapplied overhead is prorated between Cost of Goods Sold and the inventory accounts, how much will be the Cost of Goods Sold after the proration
Answer: $60238
Explanation:
First and foremost, we need to calculate the over applied overhead which will be the difference between the actual overhead and the applied overhead. This will be:
= $78600 - $75000
= $3600
Then, the portion allocated to the cost of goods sold will be:
= $3600 × $57600 /($57600 + $21000)
= $3600 × $57600/$78600
= $3600 × 0.7328
= $2638
Therefore, the cost of Goods Sold after the proration will be:
= $57600 + $2638
= $60238
A project has been assigned a discount rate of 12 percent. If the project starts immediately, it will have an initial cost of $480 and cash inflows of $350 a year for three years.

Answer: $0.70
Explanation:
The value of the option to wait would be calculated thus:
Year Cash flow PVF at 12% PV
0 $-480 1.000 $(480.00)
1 $350 0.893 $312.50
2 $350 0.797 $279.02
3 $350 0.712 $249.12
Then, the Net present value will be:
= 312.50 + 279.02 + 249.12 - 480.00
= $360.64
Year Cash flow PVF at 12%. PV
0 $-1.000 1.000. 0
1 $-520 0.893 $(464.29)
2 $385 0.797 $306.92
3 $385 0.712 $274.04
4 $385 0.636 $244.67
Net present value = $361.34
The value of the option to wait would then be calculated as:
= $361.34 - $360.64
= $0.70
Two new software projects are proposed to a young, start-up company. The Alpha project will cost $530,000 to develop and is expected to have annual net cash flow of $60,000. The Beta project will cost $170,000 to develop and is expected to have annual net cash flow of $18,000. The company is very concerned about their cash flow. Calculate the payback period for each project. Which project is better from a cash flow standpoint
Answer: See Explanation
Explanation:
The payback period for both projects would be calculated as:
Alpha Project
Cost = $530,000
Annual net cash flow = $60,000
Payback period = Cash / Annual net cash flow
= $530,000 / $60,000
= 8.83
Beta Project
Cost = $170,000
Annual net cash flow = $18,000
Payback period = Cash / Annual net cash flow
= $170,000 / $18,000
= 9.4
We can see that Alpha Project is better as the payback period is lesser than Beta project
During the month of March, Harley's Computer Services made purchases on account totaling $45,500. Also during the month of March, Harley was paid $11,000 by a customer for services to be provided in the future and paid $37,900 of cash on its accounts payable balance. If the balance in the accounts payable account at the beginning of March was $78,300, what is the balance in accounts payable at the end of March
Answer:
$85,900
Explanation:
The balance in the account payable at the end of March is computed as;
= Beginning balance of account payable + purchase made - paid amounts of its account payable balance
= $78,300 + $45,500 - $37,900
= $85,900
Please note that the amount for services to be provided in the future is not in anyway related to account payable, thereby must be excluded.

What is the connection between psychology and mathematics?
The area of psychology known as mathematical psychology is concerned with using mathematical and computational models to analyze and forecast human behavior. Memory, attention, problem-solving, perception, decision-making, and motor control are typical areas of interest.
Psychologists can interpret data and gain a better understanding of the brain with math. Therefore, having these skills is essential if you want to be as productive as possible at work. Though they usually focus on a person's behavior and thought processes, therapists can benefit from having a basic understanding of math. Students who understand math will do better in their science classes because math is closely related to the subjects they study.
Thus, the ideal selection is option C.

The Internal Revenue Service Department of Tax Regulations writes regulations in accord with laws passed by Congress. On average, the department completes 300 projects per year. The Wall Street Journal reported that, as of October 11, 1997, the number of projects "on the Department’s plate" was 588. Nevertheless, the department head claimed that average time to complete a project was under six months. Do you have any reason to disagree? Why or why not?
Answer:
The IRS's claim (that the average time it takes to complete a project is < 6 months) is wrong. It takes the Department 23.52 months to complete a project.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of projects "on the Department’s plate" (I) = 588 Projects
Average projects completed per year (R) = 300 Projects
Therefore, the flow time (the average time to complete a project by the department), T, = I / R
= 588 / 300 = 1.96 years = 1.96 X 12 = 23.52 months
b) The steps to calculate flow time (the amount of time a flow unit spends in a business process from beginning to end) are given as:
1. The number of projects handled over a period of time.
2. Let R = the number of units produced / duration of time period .
3. Compute the average inventory (I).
4. Compute flow time T =I/R.

On December 30, 2005, Bart, Inc. purchased a machine from Fell Corp. in exchange for a non-interest bearing note requiring eight payments of $20,000. The first payment was made on December 30, 2005, and the others are due annually on December 30. At date of issuance, the prevailing rate of interest for this type of note was 11%. Present value factors are as follows:
Period Present value of ordinary annuity of 1 at 11% Present value of annuity in advance of 1 at 11%
7 4.712 5.231
8 5.146 5.712
On Bart's December 31, 2005 balance sheet, the note payable to Fell was:
a. $114,240
b. $104,620
c. $94,240
d. $102,920
Answer: c. $94,240
Explanation:
On December 31, 2005, one payment has already been made which would mean that only 7 payments are left. As the first of these remaining 7 will be paid the year after, this is an ordinary annuity.
Note payable value = Present value of seven $20,000 payments
= 20,000 * Present value of ordinary annuity of 1 at 11% for 7 years.
= 20,000 * 4.712
= $94,240

Explanation:
Calculation for What was the change in net working capital during the year
First step is to calculate the Cash flow from assets
Cash flow from assets = $16,380 + 6,740
Cash flow from assets= $23,120

During 2020, Mike's current FICA taxable is $2,700 and will not change for the remainder of the year. As of the 48th pay, he had earned $134,400 as FICA taxable income (he had a bonus earlier in the year). Determine the amount of FICA taxes to be withheld from the next three payroll periods.
Answer:
Social Security:
Week 49 = $167.4
Week 50 = $37.20
Week 51 = $0
Medicare Tax:
Week 49 = $39.15
Week 50 = $39.15
Week 51 = $39.15
Explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. But I have found similar question on the internet and in that question we are asked to assume the Tax Caps 2020. So, we will solving this question accordingly.
Solution:
According to 2020 slabs Social Security W/H, the upper limit is $137,700, after this amount employer will not withhold social security tax.
On the other hand, there is no limit for Medicare Tax.
According to the question, we know that, Mike's Pay period per amount = $2700.
And, until 48th pay, he has earned $134,400
So,
For week 49, the amount of 2700 will be added to the net amount.
$134,400 + $2700 = $ 137,100
Hence, it does not breach the upper limit so, it will be taxed to $2700 only.
%6.2 x 2700 = $167.4
For Week 50, now the net amount is $ 137,100, and further $2700 will definitely breach the upper limit by $600.
$ 137,700 - $137,100 = $600
So, the $600 will be taxed for 6.2%
6.2% x $600 = $37.20
For week 51, there is clear breach of the upper limit, so according to the 2020 slab for social security, there will be no social security tax over the limit of $137,700. Hence, it will be 0.
Now, for Medicare Tax:
There is no limit.
And 1.45% on the FICA.
FICA earned per period = $2700
Hence,
1.45% x $2700 = $39.15 for each week.
So,
Social Security:
Week 49 = $167.4
Week 50 = $37.20
Week 51 = $0
Medicare Tax:
Week 49 = $39.15
Week 50 = $39.15
Week 51 = $39.15
