Answer:

D) big to let fail.

Explanation:

Once JP Morgan decided to purchase Bear Stearns, the FED agreed to offer JP  Morgan a $29 billion credit line against an estimated $30 billion worth of mortgage related assets owned by Bear Stearns.

This was a political decision since the collateral was not really worth $30 billion, a lot of it were just junk securities. But Bear Stearns was viewed as too big to fail, which means that its bankruptcy could cause a ripple effect that could damage the whole economy.

Actually the whole economy was damaged, although those who supported the idea of giving more money to those who ruined you, say that the damage would have been worse if the bailouts hadn't occurred.

A company is evaluating a new 4-year project. The equipment necessary for the project will cost $3,500,000 and can be sold for $
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

d) $677,532.

Explanation:

1.

Written down value of the equipment after 4 years = Cost x ( 100% - 1st year MACRS - Second-year MACRS - Third-year MACRS - Fourth-year MACRS ) = $3,500,000 x ( 100% - 20% - 32% - 19.20% - 11.52% ) = $604,800

2.

Now calculate the gain on the sale of equipment

Gain on the sale of equipment = Sale Price - Written down Value after 4 years = $715,000 - $604,800 = $110,200

3.

Tax owed = Gain on the sale x Tax rate = $110,200 x 34% = $37,468

After-tax salvage value = Sales price - Tax = $715,000 - $37,468 = $677,532
