<h3>What is Federal Reserve Banks?</h3>

While the Board of Governors is a sovereign government agency, the Federal Reserve Banks are set up like private companies. Member banks hold stock in the Federal Reserve Banks and earn profits.

Vlada [557]

Answer:

4. reject both Project A and Project B.

their NPV are negative so are not profitable.

Explanation:

We have to calculate the present value of the projects at their return rate

<u>Project A</u>

Present value of the cash flow - investment = net present value

$\frac{21,000}{(1.12)^{1} } = PV$

$\frac{49,000}{(1.12)^{2} } = PV$

$\frac{12,000}{(1.12)^{3} } = PV$

-75,000 + PV 21,000 + PV 49,000 + PV 12,000

-75,000 + 18,750 + 39062.5 + 8,541.36 = -8646.14

<u>Project B</u>

Present value of the cash flow - investment = net present value

-70,000 + PV 15,000 + PV 18,000 + PV 41,000

$\frac{15,000}{(1.135)^{1} } = PV$

$\frac{18,000}{(1.135)^{2} } = PV$

$\frac{41,000}{(1.135)^{3} } = PV$

-70,000 + 13215.86 + 13972.71 + 28041.18 = -14770.25

On February 24, 2020, Allison's building, with an adjusted basis of $2,986,000 (and used in her trade or business), is destroyed

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

As a calendar-year taxpayer, Allison must make the new investment by December 31, 2020 to qualify for the nonrecognition election.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Adjusted basis of building = $2,986,000

Insurance reimbursement = $3,881,800

Gain from loss = $895,800 ($3,881,800 - $2,986,000)

Investment in new building = $3,493,620

Purchase of stock = $388,180 ($3,881,800 - $3,493,620)

b) Allison is expected to make the election for the nonrecognition of the gain from loss in his Federal Tax return in the taxable year in which the gain with respect to the loss of the building is realized. The return must set forth the computation of the gain and other required details.

Anni [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (B).

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Purchased office supplies = $4,500

Supplies on balance account (in beginning) = $200

Supplies remaining (in end of month) = $180

So, To calculate supplies used in February we use following method:

Supplies Used = Supplies in Beginning + Purchased office supplies - Supplies in Ending

= $200 + $4,500 - $180

Supplies Used = $4,520

Hence, the amount of supplies USED during February was $4,520.
