Answer:

the three of them could be held personally liable:

  • I. John
  • II. John's manager
  • III. The CEO, who in this specific case we assume could have prevented the crime.

Explanation:

John committed forgery and possibly fraud by forging clients' signatures on documents held by the company. His boss ordered him to do so, so he is also responsible for John's actions. John can even try to put all the blame on his boss alleging that he was forced to forge the signatures. The CEO of the firm is also responsible because the forged documents had to serve someone's illegal purposes, and the CEO probably was the one that needed them or knew about what was going on and didn't do anything to stop it.

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

B) $9,500, 000

Explanation:

The tax basis for Ted's estate is $9,500,000, ans since it falls under the current federal estate tax exemption($11,400,000), his wife and children do not have to pay any estate taxes.  If Ted's family sells the assets before the six month alternate valuation is effective, then their tax basis will be the same as Ted's estate ($9,500,000).

diamong [38]

Answer:

Check the explanation as follows.

Explanation:

a) If it is invested in US

Current= $40 million

Interest rate= 0.28% p.m

Interest for 1 month= $40 million*0.28%= $0.112 million

Interest for 3 months= $0.112*3= $0.336 million

Total value after 3 months= $40 million+$0.336 million = $40336000.

Ivest in Great Britain for 3 months @ 0.32%

Interest per month= 25.56 million*0.32% *3 = 0.245376

Total Pounds after 3 months= Pound 25.805376

Convert into $= 25.805376/0.642 = $40195289.7156
