Answer:
13.44%
Explanation:
Debt to total assets = Total Debt / Total Assets
45% = Total debt / $230,000
Total Debt = $230,000 x 45% = $103,500
As we know
Assets = debt + Equity
$230,000 = $103,500 + Equity
Equity = $230,000 - $103,500 = $126,500
Return on Equity is the measure of financial performance which can be calculated by dividing net income for the year by total shareholder's equity.
Return on equity = Net income for the year / Shareholders equity
ROE = $17,000 / $126,500 = 0.1344 = 13.44%
Answer:
The first is a $2,370,000 note payable which matures June 30, 2023.
The second is a $5,580,000 bond issue which matures September 30, 2024.
annual sinking fund payments of $2,570,000 in each of the years 2022 through 2026.
Year Amount of long term debt Working
2021 $0
2022 $2,570,000
2023 $4,940,000 = $2,570,000 + $2,370,000
2024 $8,150,000 = $,2,570,000 + $5,580,000
2025 $2,570,000
2026 $2,570,000
Long term debt is debt that must be paid in a period of time longer than one year. Debts that are due in less than one year are classified as current debts or liabilities. That is why there is no long term debt for 2021 (current year).
Answer:
a. Partnership XYZ's recognized gain (loss)
- recognized gain = fair market value - basis = $180,000 - $50,000 = $130,000
b. Bob's taxable gain (income)
- Bob's taxable income = $130,000 x 50% = $65,000
c. Bob's basis in the property
- Bob's new basis = $180,00 x 50% = $90,000
d. Bob's basis in the partnership
- Bob's basis in the partnership = $40,000 + $65,000 = $105,000
Answer:
B) Good economists must possess a rare combination of gifts.
Explanation:
Economics is a social science that focuses on studying scarcity. Since all resources are scarce, economics tries to determine how to allocate resources more efficiently in order to produce the most possible benefits. We are all economists whether we like it or not. When we spend our money (scarce resource) we try to get the largest benefit out of it, the same applies to our time. We decide to study for a test and get a good grade, or simply take a very long nap.
The problem with economics and all social science, is that they are not exact. There is no possible way a scientific research can be done that includes all the economy, there are simply too many billions of transactions and different combinations that it is impossible to do it. Some microeconomics studies can be carried out but only considering a single company or industry and few factors.
Economists must base their research upon past events and develop models that can predict future events. Sadly but true, even meteorologists have a higher percentage of correct predictions than economists.
The few good economists must be very good at math, history, politics, philosophy, psychology, developing abstract ideas and make them concrete ideas, and last but not least must be able to explain all of this to others and convince them.
The problem with applying economic models to the real world are the changing expectations of the general public (psychology and philosophy). One of my teachers had a great saying, "the mouth is the most sensitive organ in your body, but your pocket is by far the most sensitive part".
