The mean and the median are closely related concepts. The median is the numerical value separating the higher half of your data from the lower half. You can find the median by arranging all of the observations from lowest value to highest value and picking the middle value (assuming you have an odd number of observations). Although the mean and median are closely related, the difference between the mean and the median is sometimes of interest. Suppose country A has five families. Their incomes are $10 comma 00010,000, $20 comma 00020,000, $30 comma 00030,000, $41 comma 00041,000, and $49 comma 00049,000. Country A's median income is $ 3000030000, and its mean income is $ 3000030000.(Round your responses to the nearest dollar.) Suppose country B also has five families. Their incomes are $10 comma 00010,000,$20 comma 00020,000, $30 comma 00030,000, $41 comma 00041,000, and $149 comma 000149,000. Country B's median income is $ 3000030000, and its mean income is $ nothing. (Round your responses to the nearest dollar.)

What are the forecasted levels of the line of credit and special dividends? (hints: create a column showing the ratios for the current year; then create a new column showing the ratios used in the forecast. also, create a preliminary forecast that doesn’t include any new line of credit or special dividends. identify the financing deficit or surplus in this preliminary forecast and then add a new column that shows the final forecast that includes any new line of credit or special dividend.) now assume that the growth in sales is only 3%. what are the forecasted levels of the line of credit and special dividends?

Lo.2, 3, 9 lori, who is single, purchased 5-years class property for $200,00 and 7-years class property for $420,000 on may 20, 2018. lori experts the taxable income derived form the business (without regard to the amount expensed under ⧠179) to be about $550,000. lori has determined that she should elect immediate ⧠179 expensing in the amount of $520,000, but she doesn’t know which asset she should completely expense under ⧠179. she does not claim any available additional first-year depreciation. a. determine lori’s total cost recovery deduction if the ⧠179 expense is first taken with respect to the 5-year class asset. b. determine lori’s total cost recovery deduction if the ⧠179 expense is first taken with respect to the 7-year class asset. c. what is your advice for lori? d. assume that lori is in the 24% marginal tax bracket and that she uses ⧠179 on the 7-year asset. determine the present value of the tax savings from the depreciation deductions for both assets. see appendix g for present value factors, and assume a 6% discount rate. e. assume the same facts as in part (d), except that lori decides not to use ⧠179 on either asset. determine the present value of the tax savings under this choice. in addition, determine which option lori should choose. f. present your solution to parts (d) and (e) of the problem in a spreadsheet using appropriate microsoft excel formulas. e-mail your spreadsheet to your instructor with a two-paragraph summary of your findings.
