Suppose two types of consumers buy suits. Consumers of type A will pay $100 for a coat and $50 for pants. Consumers of type B wi
n200080 [17]

Answer:

The firm will not sell any bundle, the amount of bundle to be sold will be zero.

Explanation

Solution

Since firm sells at $25 each for coats and pants, then If consumer wants to purchase both Pant and Coat, the customer will have to pay 25 + 25 = $50.

Also, If consumer purchase Pant and Coat as a Bundle then, he will pay 150. From the question stated we can conclude  that  their is a form of interest to pay for Pant and Coat for Both consumers are higher than 25.

However, they will have to pay an amount less for 1 coat and 1 pant if they buy this in a separate way instead of a  Bundle.

We can say, that type of consumers (both) will not buy the pants and coat as a bundle, but will want to buy them separately.

Therefore, any bundle will not be sold by firm. the amount of Bundle sold will be known as a zero Bundle

Andru [333]

Answer:

$135000

Explanation:

Given: Outstanding cumulative preferred stock of 10000 shares of 8% at $100

            Dividend paid= $375000.

Now, calculating preferred stock.

Preferred stock= (10000 shares\times $100\times 8\%)= \$ 80000

∴ Preferred stock= $80000

Cumulative dividend paid to shareholder= (80000\times 2 + 80000) = \$ 240000.

∴ Cumulative dividend paid to shareholder= $240000

Next, computing the amount of dividends will common stockholder receive.

Total dividend paid= $375000.  

Dividend received by common stockholder= (\textrm {Total dividend paid - cumulative dividend paid})

⇒ Dividend received by common stockholder= (375000-240000)= \$ 135000

∴ $135000 dividend will be received by common stockholder.

Corporation Q, a calendar year taxpayer, has incurred the following Section 1231 net gains and losses since its formation in 201
sp2606 [1]

Answer: $4,000 is ordinary income. No Capital gain

Explanation:

In 2017 and 2018, total Section 1231 losses are:

= 3,300 + 3,100

= $6,400

The Section 1231 gain in 2019 falls below the combined losses from the previous years of 2017 and 2018 so will not be counted as a capital gain as those losses are not yet being recaptured.

The entire $4,000 is therefore ordinary income.
