Answer:

Javier owes money to the federal government based on his earnings.

Explanation:

Direct taxes are levied directly on the income of an individual or a business. Javier pays income tax on his earnings which is classified as a direct tax. Other examples of direct taxes include corporate tax and property tax.

All other options are examples of indirect tax as they are being levied on goods and services. Such taxes are usually included in the price. For e.g. General sales tax and value added tax.

The demand for salt is inelastic, and the supply of salt is elastic. The demand for caviar is elastic, and the supply of caviar
stellarik [79]

Answer:

<h2>In the case of the salt,the salt buyers would bear most of the tax burden and for caviar,the sellers would bear most of the tax burden.Hence,the correct answer is option b. or buyers of salt and the sellers of caviar.</h2><h2 />

Explanation:

In the case of salt,the supply is more elastic than the demand which implies that the salt sellers are relatively more responsive to salt price change in the market.Therefore,if any tax is imposed on them,it would basically translate into higher production cost for the sellers and due to price elasticity of supply,the sellers would pass the tax to the salt consumers who are comparatively less price sensitive.Now,since the consumer demand for salt is inelastic and the consumers are relatively price insensitive,the consumers won't perhaps mind paying a higher market price for salt including the extra tax.Hence,in this instance,the tax burden would fall on the salt buyers or consumers.

On the other hand,based on the same line of argument,the tax burden would fall on the sellers of caviars as the price elasticity of caviar supply is less than that of the caviar demand.In this case,the caviar sellers are less sensitive about changes in market price of caviars and thus,won't mind paying a relatively higher production cost/expense which is inclusive of the tax burden.Due to higher price elasticity of demand or price responsiveness,the cavier consumers would be reluctant to bear the tax burden and pass it onto the sellers.

A currency trader observes the following quotes in the spot market: 1 U.S. dollar = 122 Japanese yen 1 British pound = 2.25 Swis
andrezito [222]

Answer:

88.38

Explanation:

Given;

1 U.S. dollar = 122 Japanese yen

1 British pound = 2.25 Swiss francs

1 British pound = 1.63 U.S. dollars

Therefore,

2.25 Swiss francs = 1.63 U.S. dollars

1 US. dollar = 2.25/1.63 Swiss francs

1 US dollar = 1.38 Swiss francs

since

1 U.S. dollar = 122 Japanese yen then,

1.38 Swiss francs = 122 Japanese yen

1 Swiss francs = 122/1.38 Japanese yen

1 Swiss francs  = 88.38 Japanese yen

1 Swiss franc can be used to purchase 88.38 Japanese yen.

Each partner in a LLP is not liable for negligence or misconduct of another partner. In the event of business failure, the personal properties of partners in a LLP are protected against legal action. Moreover, taxation of partners’ earnings in a LLP is done only once, that is, on the firm’s profit.
