Answer:

Account Balance in margin account:

Investment = $6,000 (100 x $60)

The customer's account will first increase with an unrealized gain of $2,000 ($80 - 60 x 100) on the next day.  It will then decrease with an unrealized loss of $2,000 ($80 - 60 x 100) on the day after.  This cancels the earlier unrealized gain.

Explanation:

The customer's investment will now show a balance of $6,000 with a contra account showing a debt of $3,000 for the balance of the Regulation T margin account.  According to investopedia, "A margin account is a brokerage account in which the broker lends the customer cash to purchase stocks or other financial products.  The loan in the account is collateralized by the securities purchased and cash, and comes with a periodic interest rate."

Brut [27]

Answer: Variable ... Fixed

Explanation:

In the short run, Variable Inputs or costs are known as those which can be changed and their quantities can be varied. In this scenario, the employees that Cho's uses can be varied and so are the Variable Inputs.

Similarly, those costs that cann ot be changed or varied in the short run are rightly known as Fixed Inputs. Cho's Kitchen cannot take more than 3 ovens and also she has already signed a lease for them. These costs cannot be changed and so make the oven a Fixed Input.

It is worthy of note that in the long term, all Costs are considered Variable.

Gray is a 50% partner in Fabco Partnership. Gray's tax basis in Fabco on January 1, year 4, was $5,000. Fabco made no distributi
arsen [322]

Answer:

$21000

Explanation:

To determine Gray’s tax basis  for a 50% interest in the Fabco Partnership, The interest is increased by the partner’s  distributive share of all partnership items of income and decreased by the partner’s distributive share of all loss and  deduction items.

Gray’s beginning basis = $5,000  

Gray’s 50% distributive share of ordinary  income = 50% × $20000 = $10000

Gray’s 50% tax-exempt income= 50% × $8000 = $4,000 and  

portfolio income = 50% × $4000  = $2,000

Therefore, the ending basis of  Gray’s Fabco partnership interest = $5000 + $10000 + $4000 + $2000 = $21000

serg [7]

Answer:

$5.952

Explanation:

For the computation of expected price of the competitor's stock first we need to find out the P/E ratio of a firm which is shown below:-

P/E ratio of a firm = Stock price ÷ Earning per share

= $14.26 ÷ $1.15

= $12.4

Price of competitor's stock = P/E ratio of a firm × Earning per share

= $12.4 × $0.48

= $5.952

Therefore for computing the expected price of the competitor's stock we simply applied the above formula.
