Alvis corporation reports pretax accounting income of $580,000, but due to a single temporary difference, taxable income is only $385,000. at the beginning of the year, no temporary differences existed. required: 1. assuming a tax rate of 40%, what will be alvis’s net income? 2. what will alvis report in the balance sheet pertaining to income taxes?

David consumes two things: gasoline (g) and bread (b). david's utility function is u(g, b) = 10g^0.25 b^0.75. use the lagrange technique to solve for david's optimal choices of gasoline and bread as a function of the price of gasoline, p_g, the price of bread, p_b, and his income m. with recent decrease in the price of gasoline (maybe due to external shock such as shale gas production) does david increase his consumption of gasoline? for david, how does partial differential g/partial differential p_g depend on his income m? that is, how does david's change in gasoline consumption due to an increase in the price of gasoline depend on his income level? to answer these questions, find the cross-partial derivative, |partial differential^2 g/partial differential m partial differential p_g.
