$6 million home theater


Well wonder no more. Pictured is a home theater owned by Jeremy Kipnis, a music engineer/producer. It's got 39 separate speaker units and 36 amplifiers.

He plans to sell similar systems to other rich folks like Lucas and Spielburg, but for right now he's the only one that's gone so crazy.

Quanto custa a gasolina

PREÇO DA gasolina (reais):
Gasolina ("A") 800ml (pura, vendida pela Petrobrás) = R$ 0,80
Álcool Anidro 200ml (20% misturado à gasolina) = R$ 0,24
TOTAL = R$ 1,04 / Litro

+

CIDE - PIS/COFINS (Imposto Federal) = R$ 0,44
ICMS(Imposto Estadual) = R$ 0,64
TOTAL DE IMPOSTOS (104% do Preço Bruto) = R$ 1,08 / Litro

TOTAL (CUSTO + IMPOSTOS) = R$ 2,12

+

LUCRO DA DISTRIBUIDORA (Média por Litro) = R$ 0,08
FRETE (Média por Litro) = R$ 0,02
LUCRO DO POSTO (Média por Litro) = R$ 0,25

FINALIZANDO:
VALOR NA BOMBA COM IMPOSTOS = R$ 2,47
VALOR NA BOMBA SEM IMPOSTOS = R$ 1,39

Portanto, se você consome 200 litros de gasolina por mês, o bolo fica dividido assim:

· DONO DO CARRO (Você, no caso...) GASTA: = R$ 494,00
· DONO DO POSTO GANHA: = R$ 50,00
· DONO DO CAMINHÃO GANHA: = R$ 4,00
· PETROBRÁS GANHA: = R$ 16,00
· GOVERNO GANHA: = R$ 216,00

Deveríamos comemorar a "auto-suficiência" em roubo também!
