Answer:

Mary's income:

  • salary = $117,000
  • dividend income = $13,500
  • interest on bonds = $5,700
  • long term capital gains = $21,000 - $6,000 = $15,000
  • short term capital gains = $11,000 - $7,400 = $3,600

Mary's adjusted gross income:

  • taxable income = $117,000 + $13,500 + $5,700 + $3,600 = $139,800
  • capital gains = $15,000

Mary's exemption + itemized deduction = $4,000 + $7,500 = $11,500

  • since the exemption plus the itemized deductions are lower than the standard deduction, Mary should use the standard deduction ($12,200 > $11,500).

*since we are not given the table containing the tax bracket, I will use the current 2019 tax brackets:

A) taxable income = $139,800 - $12,200 = $127,600 + $15,000 (capital gains 15%)

federal tax liability = [$14,382.50 + 24% x ($127,600 - $84,200)] + ($15,000 x 15%) = ($14,382.50 + $10,416) + $2,250 = $24,798.50 + $2,250 = $27,048.50

B) Mary's marginal tax rate is 24%

C) Mary's average tax rate = $24,798.50 / $127,600 = 19.43%

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

Option "D" is correct.

Explanation:

Option "D" is correct because When a person or member dissociates then the person loses the right to manage, losses the right to act, ceases from their duty of loyalty, ceases from the duty of care immediately if any event occurs after dissociation and the member has the right to find their interest. Therefore, from the given options it can be seen that the duty of care remains intact when only to that event that had occurred before the dissociation.

A 2-year maturity bond with face value of $1,000 makes annual coupon payments of $80 and is selling at face value. What will be
il63 [147K]

Solution:

Annual coupon payment of the bond is $80

At the beginning of the year, remaining maturity period is 2 years.

Price of the bond is equal to face value, i.e. the initial price of the bond is $1000.

New price of the bond = present value of the final coupon payment + present value of the maturity amount.

New price of the bond = $\frac{80}{1+r} +\frac{1000}{1+r}$

where, r is the yield to maturity at the end of the year.

Substitute 0.06 for r in the above equation,

Therefore new price of the bond is  = $\frac{80}{1+0.06} +\frac{1000}{1+0.06}$

                                                           = $\frac{1080}{1.06}$

                                                           = $ 1010.87

Calculating the rate of return of the bond as

$\text{rate of return}=\frac{\text{coupon+new price-old price}}{\text{initial price}}$

                     $=\frac{80+1018.87-1000}{1000}$

                     = 0.09887

Therefore, the rate of return on the bond is 9.887%

                                                                    ≈ 10 %
