Answer:

$24,000

Explanation:

From the time an asset is acquired until the time it is sold, an asset experiences a number of events which causes an increase or decrease of its total value. Th adjusted basis of a given asset, takes the base price of an asset and adjusts it for changes in value reflecting enhancements and or depreciation. For instance, a given asset purchased for $100, depreciates by $10 and has an improvement of $60 would have an adjusted basis of $100 - $10 + $60 = $150.

Now when Mary bought her furniture, the adjusted basis was $20,000. At the time of exchange, the fair market value of the furniture is $4,000 whereas Mary also gave $4,000 to the dealer in the transaction. This $4,000 changes the value ans is added to the previous adjusted basis of $20,000.

Mary's adjusted basis in the new furniture after the exchange is:

= $4,000 + $20,000

= $24,000

Solution:

Given that

The present value =∑ ⁿ t=1 cf/ (1 +r)t

where cf= cash flow

r =the required rate of return

t = the number of years

Now

The present value will be:

cf₁/(1+r)^1 + cf₂/(1 +)^2 + cf₃/(1+r)3 + cf₄/(1 +r)^4) + cf₅/(1 +r)^5 + cf₆/(1+r)^6

Hence,

cf₁, cf₂ cf₃ = 0 as the firm does not expect to pay dividend in the next three years
