<span>The economic factor that helped create the Great Depression the most is the allowance of people to buy stocks on a margin. Buying on the margin is simply borrowing money from the brokerage to buy the stock. This allows people to buy more stock than they can afford to. When they get lucky and it pays out all is good, but when the stocks they pick tank, they are left with far more debt than they can affor.</span>

Kevin purchases 1,000 shares of Bluebird Corporation stock on October 3, 2020, for $115,000. On December 12, 2020, Kevin purchas
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.

c. Capital contribution to cover deficiency:

                                                            Turner      Roth      Lowe

Contribution to cover deficiency     $3,000    $12,000    $15,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                                            Turner      Roth      Lowe

Income and loss sharing ratio:               1                4             5

Assets before liquidation = $130,800

Liabilities = $82,000  

Capital balances                                 $2,900   $14,200   $31,700

Cash received from sale of assets = $52,000 ($82,000 - $30,000)

Loss from sale of assets = $78,800 ($130,800 - $52,000)

Loss sharing ($78,800)                      $7,880    $31,520   $39,400

Contribution to cover deficiency       $3,000      $12,000   $15,000
