Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

Taxes on goods with INELASTIC demand curves will tend to raise more tax revenue for the government than taxes on goods with ELASTIC.

Goods with inelastic demand are insensitive to price. An increase price of the goods for example from an increase in tax on the goods will have no significant effect in the quantity demanded. Consumers will still buy it with an higher. So taxing this goods is a good source of revenue for the government.

Whereas goods with elastic demand are very sensitive to rice. Any slight increase in price will result in a significant decrease in quantity demanded. So government increasing tax on this good will be bad for its tax revenue because consumers won't be it

Igoryamba

Answer:

$48,200

Explanation:

Given:

Selling price of home = $140,000

Acquisition price = $45,000

Closing cost = $2,000

Cost of fireplace and family room = $35,000

Real estate commission = 0.07 × 140,000 = $9,800

Total adjusted basis  = 45,000 + 2,000 + 35,000 + 9,800

                                   = $91,800

Taxable gain = Selling price - adjusted basis

                      = 140,000 - 91,800

                      = $48,200

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The amount of dividends paid to common stockholders in 2021 $18000.

Explanation:

The cumulative preferred stock is the stock that accumulates dividends when the dividends are partially or not paid at all in a certain year. The dividends must be paid in the future.

The common stock holders are paid after the preferred stockholders are paid.

The preferred stock dividend per year = 400000 * 0.06 = $24000 per year

As the cash dividends paid in 2019 and 2020 are $20000 each,

The dividend outstanding on preferred stocks for 2019 is = 24000 - 20000 = $4000

Similarly, the dividends outstanding on preferred stocks for 2020 is = 24000 - 20000 = $4000

The total dividends outstanding at start of 2021 = 4000 + 4000 = $8000

Preferred dividend for 2021 = 24000

Total dividend on preferred stock = 24000 + 8000 = $32000

The amount of dividends that common stock holders will receive in 2021 = 50000 - 32000 = $18000

Countries are interconnected today as never before. From eating foods from different countries to singing along to songs perform
Nuetrik [128]
This is tough to answer in 3-5 sentences, and tends to also be a heavy identifier of your possible political leanings.  You'll have to apologize if some of mine leak out in the response, but this is a question we debate hotly more frequently than every 4 years.

In general, international trade can help increase the GDP and overall profits for US-based corporations.  However, if all we do is export, and we don't import, other countries don't look favorably upon that and may heavily tax our goods to counter this.

I believe we do need to be thoughtful about the amounts and kinds of international trade that we engage in.  For example, farming is always a hotly debated issue for international trade, in part because farmers in other countries with a dramatically lower cost of living OR farmers in countries with a favorable currency rate (exchange from their currency to our dollars gives them an advantage) can undercut our farmers here in the US, many of whom are already struggling.

There are also those who are worried that when we import produce from countries that have not outlawed pesticides we know are carcinogenic, for instance, this creates not only a disadvantage for US farmers, but also for consumers who may be concerned about health issues.

As another example of this, many countries outlawed import of US beef during the Mad Cow Epidemic.  We in turn also placed bans on importing beef from the UK.  

These are examples of why it's important to be thoughtful about trade, but there are certainly many others, including decline in production jobs within the US that have left cities like Detroit a ghost town (this was formerly the hub of our automotive industry production).
