Sanders Fashion Company enters into a lease arrangement with Highpoint Leasing for 5 years. Sanders agrees to pay 4% of its net sales as a variable lease payment. Sanders does not pay any fixed payments. Sanders is a highly successful company that has achieved over $1,000,000 in net sales over the last 7 years. Both Sanders and Highpoint forecast that net sales will be a much greater amount than $1,000,000 in subsequent years. As a result, it is highly certain that Sanders will make payments of at least $40,000 ($1,000,000 × 4%) each year. What is the lease payment amount Sanders should use to record its right-of-use asset?

Acompany is developing a new high­performance wax for cross country ski racing. in order to justify the price marketingwants, the wax needs to be very fast. specifically, the mean time to finish their standard test course should be less thanseconds for a former olympic champion. to test it, the champion will ski the course 8 times. the champion's times(selected at random) are 59.9 61.9 48.8 52.2 46.6 45.3 50.6 and 41.1 seconds to complete the test course. complete parts a and b below. a) should they market the wax? assume the assumptions and conditions for appropriate hypothesis testing are metfor the sample. assume=0.05. what are the null and alternative hypotheses? choose the correct answer below. b) suppose they decide not to market the wax after the test, but it turns out that the wax really does lower the champion'saverage time to less thanseconds. what kind of error have they made? explain the impact to the company of such anerror.

The 39 percent and 38 percent tax rates both represent what is called a tax "bubble." suppose the government wanted to lower the upper threshold of the 39 percent marginal tax bracket from $335,000 to $208,000. what would the new 39 percent bubble rate have to be? (do not round intermediate calculations. enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)
