Jackson, a self-employed taxpayer, uses his automobile 72% for business and during 2019 drove a total of 16,400 business miles. Information regarding his car expenses is listed below.
|
What is Jackson's deduction in 2019 for the use of his car if he uses:
If required, round your answers to nearest dollar.
a. The actual cost method?
$
b. The automatic mileage method?
$
c. What records must Jackson maintain?
Keeping a written or electronic log of miles driven, the dates the
automobile was used, the location of travel, and the business
purpose is enough evidence for the . If
the is used, keeping copies of receipts, canceled
checks, and bills in addition to a mileage log is sufficient.
Records and logs should be kept contemporaneously (e.g., updated
weekly or daily).

Zoe is testing to see if UCI students are more stressed out than
the normal
person is. The mean stress level of the average person is 50 with a
known
standard deviation of 10. Amy is going a two-tailed test with α =
.10. The null
hypothesis is μ = 50. What precisely is μ the mean of?
The average UCI student commutes 6.3 miles to school, with a
known standard
deviation of five miles. Amy believes that social science majors
are different from
the average UCI student. She gets a sample of six social science
majors and
asks them how far they commute. They answer 4, 13, 11, 7, 15, 10.
Do a z-test
to see if Amy’s belief is true. Please calculate the z-statistic
for this data.
Now, for the above question, state the critical value, and come
to a conclusion
about Amy’s belief. Let α = .01. Make it a two-tailed test.
What is the p-value for the experiment in questions 13 and 14?
Answer to
four digits past the decimal point, such as .3264.

(a) A commercial 737 jet transporting 143 passengers and 5 crew members from Kansas City to Baltimore burned 11,800 lbs. (about 1700 gallons) of Jet A fuel en route. Jet A fuel is kerosine based, consisting primarily of CnH2n+2 hydrocarbons, with n = 6 to 16, so the carbon: hydrogen ratio is close to 1:2. During this flight, how much CO2 was released into the atmosphere? Assume the combustion of the fuel was complete, so all the fuel was burned to form CO2 and H2O. Give both the mass of CO2 produced (in kg and lb) and the volume it would occupy at 298 K, 1 atm.
(b) How much CO2 would be released into the atmosphere is those passengers and crew made the trip instead, in pairs, in hybrid cars at 40 miles per gallon. Assume the density of the gasoline is 0.75 kg/L and that carbon and hydrogen dominate the composition in a ration of 1:2. The road trip is 1082 miles.
Note: This is in the complete problem as written in the textbook, in a chapter about gas laws (both ideal and nonideal).

(Part a - 8 points) Formulate and list the linear program for the above problem to minimize the total student-miles traveled per day. You do NOT need to solve your listed linear program.
(Part b - 2 points) If Capedot High School will be closed to conserve the school system’s resources and its budget, how will you efficiently revise your linear program to cope with this school closing?

Tom's Truckers purchased a new truck for $160,000. The company expected the truck to last 5 years or 100,000 miles, with an estimated salvage value of 120,000 at the end of that time. In the first year, the truck was driven 24,000 miles.
* As the account for Tom, you can depreciate this truck using the
a.) Double declining balance or the
b.) Units of production method.
* Which method of depreciation will allow the largest write-off in the first year ( show work)?
* How much greater would the depreciation expense be using this method?
2. A cargo van purchased by Tiger's Transport should last 5 years. The purchase price was $120,000. The trade-in value is $10,000.
* Using the double declining balance method, calculate the accumulated depreciation at the end of year 2. Round the declining balance rate to 4 decimal places, and all dollar amounts to the nearest cent.
3. Barb is a 47 year old female and wants to purchase $209,000 in straight life insurance. If the rate per thousand from the chart shows rate per thousand of $18.29, how much would the life insurance cost her?

Is there a Prius version? Did you know that the average Boeing 747 airplane uses approximately 1 gallon of fuel per second? Given the speed of the airplane, that means it gets 5 gallons to the mile. No, not 5 miles to the gallon, 5 gallons to the mile. You may be questioning why such a horribly inefficient machine is allowed to exist, but you’ll be happy to find out that, because this airplane hold 568 people, it averages about 0.01 gallons per person – (100 miles per gallon per person).
Your job is to design (pseudocode) and implement (source code) a program that asks the user for a distance the plane has to fly (i.e. the length of the trip) and also asks the cost of jet fuel (which is currently $1.80 per gallon). The program should then calculate the total fuel charges to make the trip. Next, ask the user how many people will fly, as well as the average cost of a ticket. Finally, print the total profit made (or lost) and the average gas mileage per person.

Also PLEASE PROVIDE BELL SHAPED CURVE** That is the part I struggle with the most.
The airlines industry measures fuel efficiency by calculating how many miles one seat can travel, whether occupied or not, on one gallon of jet fuel. The following data show the fuel economy, in miles per seat for 17 randomly selected flights on Delta and United. Assume the two population variances for fuel efficiency for the two airline are equal.

On May 31, 2016, Sandals report purchased a truck at a cost of $160,000. before placing the truck into service, The company spend $2,500 painting it, $500 replacing tires, and $5,000 overhauling the engine. The truck should remain in service for 5 years and have a residual value of $7,500. The truck’s annual mileage is expected to be 15,000 in each of the first two years and 10,000 miles in the next three years. In deciding which depreciation method to use, the general manager request depreciation schedule for each of the depreciation methods (straight line, unit-of production, and double – declining-balance). work out each depreciation in the depreciation schedule. pass all transaction in the journal entry. journal entry must be included. show working out for each depreciation.
work out the unit of production depreciation in the depreciation schedule. should work out based off the following information listed below
Miles 60,000
Cost 165,000
Residual value 7,500
Depreciable amount $165,000 - $7,500 = $157,500
Depreciation per unit 157,500 / 60,000 = 2.63
