Answer:

The value of x is 566.36

Explanation:

The value of x should be such that the present value of both Investments is the same when discounted at a rate of 11%. To calculate the present value, we use the following formula,

Present Value = CF 1 / (1+r)  +  CF 2 / (1+r)^2 + ... + CFn / (1+r)^n

Where,

  • CF represents Cash flow
  • r represents the discount rate

So, we equate both the present value of Investment A and B to calculate the value of x.

Present Value of A = Present Value of B

450/(1.11)  +  650/(1.11)^2  +  850/(1.11)^3 = 850/(1.11)  +  x/(1.11)^2  +  450/(1.11)^3

1554.472661  =  765.7657658  +  x/(1.11)^2  +  329.0361216

1554.472661  -  765.7657658  -  329.0361216  =  x/(1.11)^2

459.6707736 * (1.11)^2  =  x

x = 566.3603602 rounded off to 566.36

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

C+$64

Explanation:

The GDP measures the market value of all good and services produced in an economy (country or region) in a specific period of time. It is calculated by this formula:

GDP= Consumption (C)+ Investment (I)+ Government expenditure ()+ Net exports (exports-imports)

A lump-sum tax at all levels of GDP means that no matter what GDP value is, the tax will be the same amount. If the tax is collected by the government then the GDP will increase because the government expenditure is income ( most of them are taxes) minus expenses ( public investment in education, health, etc)

GDP= C+$34+$30+0

After tax, the equilibrium level of GDP will be C+$64

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

B) $9,500, 000

Explanation:

The tax basis for Ted's estate is $9,500,000, ans since it falls under the current federal estate tax exemption($11,400,000), his wife and children do not have to pay any estate taxes.  If Ted's family sells the assets before the six month alternate valuation is effective, then their tax basis will be the same as Ted's estate ($9,500,000).
