Most homeowners would agree that the most important financial benefit from owning their own home is the tax break. This is known as a tax shelter and allows for homeowners to avoid or lower their taxes. Owning a home reduces your taxable income and in large part due to interest rates and interest paid on an owned home.
Answer:
a) a downward shift in the AFC curve
Explanation:
AFC = Average Fixed Cost, AVC = Average Variable Cost, MC = Marginal Cost
Average Fixed Cost is defined as the fixed cost of production divided by the quantity produced. Mathematically given as:
Average Fixed Cost = Fixed Cost ÷ Quantity
AVC = FC ÷ Q
Average Variable Cost is defined as the variable cost of production divided by the quantity produced. Mathematically given as:
AFC = VC ÷ Q
Marginal Cost is defined as the cost incurred for an additional unit to be produced. Mathematically given as:
MC = ΔC ÷ ΔQ
The firm discovered a more efficient technology implies that the cost of production is reduced. The result of this is that the fixed cost (FC) is reduced and consequently, the AFC is reduced as well. Hence, the AFC curve shifts downward. We therefore see that a reduction in fixed costs (due to the discovery of a more efficient technology) results in the AFC curve shifting downwards
<u>Hence, Option A (a downward shift in the AFC curve) is the correct answer </u>
I would budget for D. Budget for the unexpected.
Answer: A.There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean price of a single-family home has increased from its level two years ago of $299,500
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that according to the Federal Housing Finance Board, the mean price of a single-family home two years ago was $299,500 and that a real estate broker believes that due to recent credit crunch, the mean price has increased since then and the result is that the null hypothesis is not rejected.
The conclusion based on the results of the test is that since the null hypothesis has been rejected, it simply means that there are sufficient evidence that there has been an increase in the mean price since two years ago.
Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
Solution :
Let us suppose that a company cannot predict the market value of an equipment that acquired by the reference to the similar purchase for the cash. Thus the company finds cost of purchased of the equipment by exchanging :
-- the market price of the bonds when they have an established price in the market.
-- the market price of the bonds when the common stocks does not have a established market price.
-- market price of the equipment when the similar kind of an equipment have a determinable value in the market.
