Answer:

A. The interest rate is 4 percent.

B. The amount of money supplied is 200 bilion dollars and the equilibrium quantity demanded is 200 bilion dollars.

Explanation:

A. To answer this questions you use the table below. The first column is the interest rate. The second column is the quantity of money demanded as an asset at each rate. The third column is the quantity of money demanded for transactions, which is independent of the interested rate. The fourth column is the actual (total) quantity of money demanded at each interest rate, which is the sum of columms 1 and 2. The fifth column is the quantity of money supplied at each interest rate. You wil find the equilibrium interest rate by equating the quantity supplied with the quantity demanded, which occurs at the interest rate of 4 percent.

B. It also follows from the answer above that the equilibrium quantity of money supplied is 200 bilion dollars and the equilibrium quantity demanded is 200 bilion dollars. You can decompose the quantity demanded into its separate components, where the amount of money demanded for transactions is 150 billion dollars and the amount of money demanded as an asset is 50 billion dollars.

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$60

Explanation:

An individual buys stock at $40 per share. Many years later, the individual dies when the market value is $60. The estate distributes the shares to a beneficiary when the stock is worth $70. Therefore the cost basis to the beneficiary is

The cost basis by definition is usually equal to the fair market value of the property or asset at the time of the decedent's death or when the actual transfer of assets was made.

However for the purpose to be served to reduce the tax due on the inheritance, we have chosen to opt for the fair market value of the property or asset at the time of the decedent's death which is $60

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

warrant expense 51,000 debit

          cash                       6,000 credit

          warranty liability 45,000 credit

--to record warrant-related accounts--

interest payable 16,667 debit

interest expense  3,333 debit

          cash                  20,000 credit

--to record interest expense for the loan and installment--

Manufacturing Facilities 5,192,772  debit

              Cash                    5,000,000 credit

              Restoration Liability 192,772 credit

-- to record the payment to contractor--

Explanation:

Warranty: the additional expected expense are considered warranty laibility

Loan: we previously recorded accrued interest from March 1st to Dec 31th

That is: 200,000 x 10% x 10/12 months = 16,667 payable

At February 28th we recognize the last two month of interest

200,000 x 10% x 2/12 months = 3,333 expense

in total we have 16,667 + 3,333 = 20,000 cash outlay

Facility: the asset should add to all the cost necessary to acquire it:

As the conversion into community center is mandatory it is part of the cost:

present value of the 500,000 in ten years:

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  $500,000.00

time  10.00

rate  0.10000

\frac{500000}{(1 + 0.1)^{10} } = PV  

PV   192,771.6447

Total cost:

5,000,000 cashg + 192,772 liability = 5,192,772
