On December 17, 2010, the Wilmington, North Carolina StarNews carried an Associated Press report headlined "13 million get unexpected tax bill from Obama tax credit". The report said that
The Internal Revenue Service reported that the average tax refund was $2,892 in the 2010 filing season, up from $2,663 in 2009. However, the number of refunds dropped by 3.5 percent to 93.3 million.
What was the percentage increase in the average tax refund from 2009 to 2010?
$2,892 - $2,663= 229 ÷ $2,663= 0.08599324% was the percentage increase from 2009 to 2010.
How many refunds were there in 2009 and in 2010? (Use the information given in the problem to find your answer.)
c. The number of refunds decreased while the average refund increased, so you need some arithmetic to decide how the total dollar amount refunded changed from 2009 to 2010. Find that change in both absolute and percentage terms
You are the warehouse manager for Discovery Kitchen Supplies. On a Sunday in May, you receive a phone call from the owner. He states that the entire building and contents were destroyed by fire. For the police report and the insurance claim, the owner has asked you to estimate the value of the lost inventory. Your records, which luckily were backed up on the hard drive of your home computer, indicate that at the time of the fire, the net sales to date were $654,300 and the purchases were $290,400. The beginning inventory on January 1 was $329,700. For the past three years, the company has operated at a gross margin of 20%. Use the gross profit method to calculate your answer. Round your answer to the nearest dollar.$
