irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Hope's gross income = $5000 + $10,000 = $15,000

Explanation:

First, we need to highlight what are qualified education expenses especially for tax-free fellowships and scholarships.

Specifically, the qualified expenses that will be tax exempt will be

The tuition and fees which are requirements to go to an eligible school or institution

Other course related expenses required for courses in such institutions such as books equipment and supplies are also tax exempt.

<u>However, room and board, research travel and other expenses that are not required for courses in the institution are not tax free</u>

Based on this analysis:

Hope's initial earning on campus = $5000

However, $10,000 spent on room and board are not required for enrolment in the school, hence, it will be added to the earnings to make the gross income

Hope's gross income = $5000 + $10,000 = $15,000

In a new margin account, a customer buys 1,000 shares of ABC stock at $40 per share. The stock rises to $50 during the next week

Helen [10]

Answer:

C) $5,000

Explanation:

Since the price of the stocks first rose to $50, the account's equity was $50,000.

The SMA balance was = ($50,000 x 1/2) - $20,000 = $,5000

The SMA balance acts like a stabilizer and cannot be taken away even if the price of the stocks fall slightly. The price of stocks must fall 25% in order for the SMA to be withdrawn.

The investor's equity decreased = equity - margin requirement = $39,000 - $20,000 = $19,000, but the amount that the investor can borrow (SMA balance) will remain the same at $5,000.

Answer:

A) interest rate

Explanation:

Interest rate risk refers to the risk of purchasing a bond that offers a certain coupon and then the price of that bond changes due to changes in the market interest rate.

This can work in your favor, if the market interest rate decreases, you will have a bond that pays above market coupon, which will increase the market value of the bond. But if the market interest rate increases, the market value of your bond will decrease, and you will lose money. This is what happened to Albert, since the market interest rate increased, the value of Albert's bond decreased.
