Light emitting diode (leds) light bulbs have become required in recent years, but do they make financial sense? suppose a typical 60-watt incandescent light bulb costs $.41 and lasts for 1,000 hours. a 15-watt led, which provides the same light, costs $3.20 and lasts for 12,000 hours. a kilowatt hour of electricity costs $.117. a kilowatt-hour is 1,000 watts for 1 hour. however, electricity costs actually vary quite a bit depending on location and user type. an industrial user in west virginia might pay $.04 per kilowatt-hour whereas a residential user in hawaii might pay $.25. you require a return of 9 percent and use a light fixture 500 hours per year. what is the break-even cost per kilowatt-hour? (do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 6 decimal places, e. g., 32.161616.)

Which of the following statements is correct? a major disadvantage of a partnership relative to a corporation is the fact that federal income taxes must be paid by the partners rather than by the firm itself. in a typical partnership, liability for other partners’ misdeeds is limited to the amount of a particular partner’s investment in the business.true in a limited partnership, the limited partners have voting control, while the general partner has operating control over the business, and the limited partners are individually responsible, on a pro rata basis, for the firm’s debts in the event of bankruptcy. partnerships have more difficulty attracting large amounts of capital than corporations because of such factors as unlimited liability, the need to reorganize when a partner dies, and the illiquidity of partnership interests.
