Which is not one of the five fundamental questions?

1 answer:

7 0

Economics in many cases is an exact science, but usually it is a practical one that has applications. Thus there are some practical goals that need to be answered with the use of economics and an easy to summarize form of them are the five fundamental questions of economics. 3 of the choices above are such fundamental questions; determining the way of production, the receiver of the production as well as the ways in which the economic system can change are of fundamental importance to the science of economics. The other 2 questions are: What products will be produced ? and How can we foster progress?
Choice d is a pretty important question too (that falls somewhat under a) but the fact that it mentions the government specifically makes it less general than the other propositions so it is not a fundamental question.

Data given in the question

Purchase value of the patent = $175,000

Legal fees = $5,000

The Remaining life of the patent = 13 years

Provide realistic examples of each of the risk response strategies for both negative and positive risks

VLD [36.1K]

A positive risk response produces provides positive strategies to achieve a positive goal while a negative risk response provides negative strategies to achieve a negative goal. There are four ways four strategies that produces a response risk; enhance, exploit, accept and share. The type of response risk will vary in the accept part.

An example of a positive risk is when you are given a project in class and you are to finish it in four months. Being a hardworking person that you are, you wanted to finish it in one month and so you find methods to compress your time schedule and achieve your goal.

Let us take the example from the above mentioned before for an example of a negative risk. So instead of four months, since you do not like working or the fact that maybe you don't like the project, you passed your project in six months. What you just did is lounge around the corner and did nothing to just improve the project.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

I will use the 2020 tax schedule since recovery rebate credit applies to 2020:

Marc and Michelle's gross income = Marc's and Michelle's salaries + interest from corporate bonds = $64,000 + $12,000 + $500 = $76,500

they should choose the standard deduction since it is higher than their itemized deductions = ($24,400)

contribution to IRA = ($2,500)

alimony payment = ($1,500) the divorce agreement was settled on 2005

Marc and Michelle's taxable income = $48,100

Marc and Michelle's tax liability = $1,975 + [12% x ($48,100 - $19,750)] = $5,377

Interests on municipal bonds is not taxable.

The amount of taxes that they owe = $5,377 - $3,500 (federal tax withholdings) = $1,877

Refundable tax credits:

$2,000 in child tax credit

$2,900 in recovery rebate credit

total = $4,900

taxes payable or refund = tax liability - refundable tax credits = $1,877 - $4,900 = -$3,023.

Marc and Michelle should get a refund for $3,023
