For beginning real-estate investors what are some advantages of REITs rather than direct purchase of property?

1 answer:

3 0

REITs keep you liquid and may be more cost efficient. Entering in a REIT also costs lower, and an individual can invest in a fund for less than 1,000 USD. It's kind of like buying into a stock too, in a sense that you can sell your REIT shares at your leisure.

On one hand, direct real estate investment gives you more power over your finances as there is no fund manager - you are the one in charge and you decide who can rent and live in your property. Some say that investment returns are also bigger should you go for direct real estate. However, it should be noted that you're putting in a bigger amount (roughly upwards 100,000 USD - which few people may be ready to shell out) just to get started on direct property investment versus about USD 1,000 into REIT.

At the end of the day, it's up to the investor to decide what sort of risk you're comfortable with.

For an oil and gas limited partnership (LP), allowances in the form of deductions are allowed by the IRS to be taken to compensa

Triss [41]

Answer:

The allowance can be taken based on:

a reduction (production) of the oil and gas reserves.

Explanation:

A limited partnership's allowance for depletion is a special form of depreciation used to account for the gradual reduction in the value of natural resources based on their usage or consumption. There are two methods for recognizing depletion of natural resources. They are the cost depletion method, which is based on usage, and the percentage depletion method, which is a percentage of gross earnings. Then, depletion is different from depreciation, in that depreciation is for tangible assets, while depletion is for natural assets.

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the government changes taxes without changing government spending to eliminate the recessionary gap, will the minimum required change in taxes be greater than, smaller than, or equal to the minimum required change in government spending?

The minimum required change in taxes will be greater than that of the minimum required change in government spending

tax multiplier (mpc/mps = 0/8/0.2=0.4) is smaller than the government spending multiplier (1/mps= 1/.2=5) because of the initial increase in disposable income caused by the decrease in income tax will be saved rather than spent
