Ms. Z has decided to invest $75,000 in state bonds. She could invest in State A bonds paying 5 percent annual interest or in Sta

te R bonds paying 5.4 percent annual interest. The bonds have same risk , the interest from both is exempt from federal income tax. Because Ms. Z is a resident of State A , she would not pay State A's 8.5 percent personal income tax on the State A bond interest, but she would pay this tax on the State R bond interest .Ms. Z can deduct any State tax payments in the computations of her federal taxable income , and her federal marginal rate is 33 percent. Should Ms. Z invest in the State A or State R bonds?

Ms. Z should opt for investing in State A. Explanation: The calculation for coupons from State A equals (1 - 0.33) * 0.05 * 75000, which totals to 2512.5. Meanwhile, the coupons from State R calculate to (1 - 0.33 - 0.085) * 0.054 * 75000, resulting in 2369.25. Therefore, the more advantageous investment lies within State A.

soldi70 [3635]

Answer:

d. If processed further, the company stands to gain $12 for each unit.

Explanation:

To make the decision, we begin by evaluating the costs and profits associated with each option on a per unit basis.

Profit from the unassembled product is calculated as follows:

Profit = 135 - 60 = $75 for each unit

Profit from the assembled product totals:

Profit = 174 - 60 - 27 = $87 for each unit

Thus, the difference in profit stands at 87 - 75 = $12/unit once assembled.

Accordingly, the company should continue processing further, resulting in an added $12 gain for every unit sold.

Hope that helps.

harina [3808]
$4,800 Explanation: The calculation for the increased annual cash inflow is detailed below: Savings from the new machine's annual maintenance costs = $15,000 - $6,000 = $9,000 Net maintenance savings = $9,000 × (1 - 0.4) = $5,400 Reduction in depreciation due to acquiring new equipment = ($60,000 ÷ 10) - ($45,000 - 10) = $6,000 - $4,500 = $1,500 Tax implications from decreased depreciation = $1,500 × 0.4 = $600 Net annual cash inflow associated with new machinery = Net maintenance savings - Tax impact = $5,400 - $600 = $4,800. Hence, this process yielded the computed additional annual cash inflow.

No, this arrangement violates the AICPA Code of Conduct. The firm's fee is entirely contingent upon the success of their work, whereas the Code permits compensation based on effort but not solely on outcome. Since there is no guaranteed fee unless tax credits are awarded, this opens the door to potential misconduct by the firm. To prevent such risks, the Code disallows fees that depend exclusively on the achievement of tax credits.
