Imagine that your mother is 62 years old and planning to retire at 66. If she puts $6,000 into a Roth IRA at the age of 62 and it grows to $8,000 by the time she retires at 66, can she withdraw the full $8,000 without paying any taxes?
A. Yes.
B. No.
Answer: B. No.
Explanation:
A Roth Individual Retirement Account allows for one to be able to withdraw amounts without paying taxes in their retirement. There are several requirements for this to be possible though.
One of them is that the person should have owned the account for at least 5 years. The mother in this scenario had only owned the account for 4 years and so will not qualify for tax free withdrawals.
Dog Kennel uses tenant-days as its measure of activity; an animal housed in the kennel for one day is counted as one tenant-day. During March, the kennel budgeted for 3,100 tenant-days, but its actual level of activity was 3,120 tenant-days. The kennel has provided the following data concerning the formulas used in its budgeting and its actual results for March: Data used in budgeting: Fixed element per month Variable element per tenant-day Revenue - $ 34.00 Wages and salaries $ 2,000 $ 7.00 Food and supplies 1,000 13.50 Facility expenses 7,500 2.50 Administrative expenses 6,000 0.10 Total expenses $ 16,500 $ 23.10 Actual results for March: Revenue $ 104,372 Wages and salaries $ 28,500 Food and supplies $ 44,025 Facility expenses $ 14,900 Administrative expenses $ 7,090 The revenue variance for March would be closest to: Multiple Choice $1,708 F $1,708 U $1,028 U $1,028 F

The sequence of events that results in a new equilibrium interest rate, after the Fed makes the change you selected, may be described as follows:
Because there is ______________ money in the financial system, the quantity of interest-bearing financial assets such as bonds demanded _____________, which means that bond issuers __________________ sell the bonds. This process continues until the new equilibrium interest rate is achieved.
Answer:
Following are the responses to the given question:
Explanation:
Due to the increased amount of currency in the banking sector, the amount of interest-bearing economic stocks and bonds has reduced, because when interest rates fall and bond demand rises or vice versa, the interplay between bond yields and bond prices grows In this case, bond demand will decline, implying, therefore, corporate bonds must increase interest for issue debt still. It is because, whereas if bond rates increase, the price of the bond will drop, that will lead to an increase in the consumption for bonds.

You are to receive a cash flow of $1,500 two years from now. Once received, you will invest the money and earn a 10.5% return. What is the value of the investment in year 5?
Answer:
$2,471.17
Explanation:
The value of the investment in 5 years time from the day of investment is known as the Future Value.
The Future Value is calculated by compounding the Principle Amount (amount invested) using the effective interest rate.
We can determine the Future Value using a Financial Calculator as follows :
PV = - $1,500
PMT = $0
P/YR = 1
N = 5
I = 10.5%
FV = ??
The Future Value (FV) is $2,471.17
Thus,
the value of the investment in year 5 is $2,471.17

Based on the marginal principle, would it make sense to for a business to expand their hours of operation if they project $1,500 of additional revenue per week, however they also project increase expenses of $1,000 for salaries, $150 for utilities and $50 for misc. expenses. No, because they will lose $300 per week Yes, because they will net $300 per week Yes, because they will gain $1,500 of revenue per week No, because they will incur $1,200 of expenses per week.
Answer:
Yes, because they will net $300 per week
Explanation:
According to the marginal principle, production can be increased if marginal revenue would exceed marginal cost. It means that the venture would be profitable
Marginal cost is the increase in cost as a result of increasing output by one unit.
total marginal cost = 1000 + 50 + 150 = 1200
Marginal revenue is the increase in revenue as a result of increasing output by one unit.
Marginal revenue exceeds marginal cost by (1500 - 1200) 300. Thus, hours of operation can be increased
If the best surgeon in town is also the best at cleaning swimming pools, then according to the theory of comparative advantage, this person should split his time evenly between being a surgeon and cleaning swimming pools. pursue the activity he enjoys more. specialize in being a surgeon because its opportunity cost is lower. specialize in cleaning swimming pools because it is more labor-intensive.
Answer:
tspecialize in being a surgeon because its opportunity cost is lower
Explanation:
A person has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other people.
Implicit cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives
What the surgeon would give up to pratice as a surgeon would be lower compared than if he decided to specialise in cleaning pools
thus he should specialize in being a surgeon because its opportunity cost is lower
The multiplier effect of changes in government transfers is: greater than the multiplier effect of a change in government spending. impossible to determine. less than the multiplier effect of a change in government spending. zero because transfer payments do not affect aggregate demand.
Answer: less than the multiplier effect of a change in government spending.
Explanation:
The multiplier effect of government transfers refers to the measure by which the aggregate demand will increase by as a result of government transfers increasing.
This multiplier is less than the multiplier effect of a change in government spending. This is because government spending affects more people in the economy as it targets both companies and consumers. Government transfers on the other hand, target only welfare and unemployment payments amongst others so it cannot have the same effect as government spending.
The largest item of the Deferred Tax Liability for most companies is caused by:________.
a. providing the allowance for doubtful accounts for book purposes.
b. differences in inventory cost flow assumptions (FIFO vs. LIFO) for tax versus financial accounting purposes.
c. differences in depreciation methods (accelerated vs. straight-line) for tax versus financial accounting purposes.
d. amortizing bond premium or discount for tax purposes.
Answer: c. differences in depreciation methods (accelerated vs. straight-line) for tax versus financial accounting purposes.
Explanation:
A Deferred tax liability arises as a result of the tax authorities using a different accounting convention from the business. This leads to a situation where the company records more tax than the tax authorities do so the company will recognize the extra tax as a liability until it is paid.
The main cause of this is the difference in depreciation methods. The tax authorities use an accelerated method which would lead to a lower profit in early years which would translate to a lower tax. The company on the other hand would use straight line depreciation and calculate a higher tax. The difference is called the deferred tax liability.

= Revenue per pair - Total cost per pair
= Selling price of pair - (Variable cost + Additional stitching cost)
= 15 - (9 + 1)
= 15 - 10
= $5.00

If a company purchases equipment costing $5,100 on credit, the effect on the accounting equation would be:
Answer:
assets increase $5,100 and liabilities increase $5,100
Explanation:
Assets are the items that a company owns which can provide future economic benefit.
Liabilities are future sacrifices of economic benefits that an entity is obliged to make to other entities as a result of past transactions or other past events, hence Liabilities are what a person or company owe other parties.
If a company purchases equipment costing $5,100 on credit, the assets of the company will increase by $5100 as a result of acquiring an equipment. Also, the liability will increase by $5100 as a result of debt owed.

Suppose that Raphael, an economist from an AM talk radio program, and Susan, an economist from a school of industrial relations, are arguing Over saving incentives. The following dialogue Shows an excerpt from their debate:
Susan: I think it's safe to say that, in general, the savings rate of households in today's economy is much lower than it really needs to be to sustain an improvement in living standards.
Raphael: I think a switch from the income tax to a consumption tax would bring growth in living standards.
Susan: You really think households would change their saving behavior enough in response to this to make a difference? Because I don't.
The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to_____________ . Despite their differences, with which proposition are two economists chosen at random most likely to agree?
a. Rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
b. Immigrants receive more in government benefits than they contribute in taxes.
c. Having a single income tax rate would improve economic performance.
Answer:
a. Difference in values
b. a. Rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
Explanation:
The disagreement between these economists is most likely due to difference in values.
Economists are known to disagree a lot with each other and this is down to them having different values and perspectives with regards to several economic decisions. This is why there are different economic theories subscribed to by economists such as Keynesian and New Classical theories.
Despite these disagreements however, there are certain things they would always agree on and one of those is that rent ceilings reduce the quantity and quality of available housing.
The logic behind this is that imposing a rent ceiling would dissuade real estate investors from putting in more money to develop properties because the rent ceiling would limit the returns that they can get.
Supply of real estate would also fall because less investors would go into the market because they would fear being unable to recoup adequate returns on account of the rent ceiling.
Why does the Aggregate Demand Curve slope downwards?
a. GDP Effect
b. Exchange-RMC Effect
c. Turn-Rate Effect
d. Substitution Effect
e. Interest-Rate Effect
f. Marginal Effect
g. Wealth Effect
Answer:
b. Exchange - RMC Effect c. Interest-Rate effect d. Wealth effectExplanation:
When the exchange rate of the country falls, goods denominated in that currency will become cheaper and this would have the effect of making exports cheaper. Exports therefore rise with lower price levels.
A lower interest rate will mean that more companies will take loans to invest. Investment is a component of Aggregate demand so when investment increases, so does AD.
When prices are lower in the economy, the Aggregate Demand will increase because people will be able to afford more goods and services. This is the wealth effect.

A company purchased a computer system on January 2, 2010 for $1,600,000. The company used the straight-line depreciation method with an estimated useful life of 6 years and a residual value of $130,000. The company prepares financial statements at December 31. Assume the company decides to sell the computer system on July 1, 2012 for $1,000,000. Which of the following is not true concerning the journal entry(ies) required on July 1 is not correct?
a. The Equipment asset account must be credited for $1,600,000 to record the sale.
b. The loss on the sale is $12,500.
c. Accumulated Depreciation is debited for $612,500 in the entry to record the sale.
d. The depreciation expense must be recorded for 6 months, January 1 to July 1.
Answer: b. The loss on the sale is $12,500.
Explanation:
The value of the equipment on the date it was sold is:
= Cost price - Accumulated depreciation
Accumulated depreciation = Depreciation * Number of years of service
Depreciation = (1,600,000 - 130,000) / 6 years useful life
= $245,000
Number of years of service is 2.5 years because the asset was sold on July 1, 2012.
Accumulated depreciation = 245,000 * 2.5
= $612,500
Value at date of sale:
= 1,600,000 - 612,500
= $987,500
Gain (loss) on sale = Selling price - Value at date of sale
= 1,000,000 - 987,500
= $12,500
The $12,500 is a gain not a loss.
