salantis [7]

Answer:a)$195,500 b) $10,735 c)$6,900

Explanation

a)adjusted basis of Kevin’s Bluebird stock on December 31, 2020?

1,000 shares was bought for $115,000

Therefore it was bought at $115 per share

Also

750 shares was bought at $80,500 and therefore bought at 107.33 per share

So in total of 1750 shares, He spent $195,500 ($115,000+ $80,500)

b.On December 12, 2020,he bought shares at 107.33 per share

500 shares would be 500 x $107.33=$53, 665

Therefore, Kevin’s recognized gain or loss from the’ sale of Bluebird stock on March 1, 2021 would be

$64,400- $53, 665 = $10,735

c.Assuming he cannot identify the shares sold, then we can say they are sold on a FIFO ( first in first out) basis. So we would consider the shares bought on October 3, 2020

so we have that

500 x $115=$57,500

$64,400 - $57,500 = $6,900

A country with a relatively low level of real GDP per person is considering adopting two policies to promote economic growth.The

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The correct answer is the letter d. Neither the first nor the second.

Explanation:

GDP (gross domestic product) growth is influenced by various factors, consumption, investment, technology, external sector, etc. The policy of restricting foreign trade by placing barriers to trade has reduced GDP as it burdens one of the drivers of economic growth, for example by reducing exports to the rest of the world and thus GDP. Similarly, restricting foreign portfolio investment contributes to non-GDP growth, as foreign investments play an important role in increasing companies' capitalization, helping them to make more investments. Therefore, both economic policies are wrong.
