The embargo created an artificial drop in the supply of oil. How would a natural shortage differ from an embargo situation? A natural shortage of oil may lead to more people being cautious of how they spend their energy. This may also drive new ways for us to obtain energy. An embargo is a ban on a trade or commercial activity within a specific country. Different countries can put an embargo on a product that another one needs and it can hurt their overall economy and living situations.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

d. Market clearing price will fall, and equilibrium quantity will fall.

lana [24]

Answer:

We to invest $ 17,213 per year to buy the car in seven years from now

Explanation:

First, we solve for the future value of the car:

$Principal \: (1+ r)^{time} = Amount$

Principal 83,800.00

time 7.00

rate 0.10000

$83800 \: (1+ 0.1)^{7} = Amount$

Amount 163,302.49

Then, for the PTM to achieve tham amount in 7 years:

$FV \div \frac{(1+r)^{time} -1}{rate} = C\\$

FV 163,302

time 7

rate 0.1

$163302.49298 \div \frac{(1+0.1)^{7} -1 }{0.1} = C\\$

C $ 17,212.981

Jessica is a one-third owner in Bikes-R-Us, an S corporation that experienced a $45,000 loss this year (year 1).

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

a. $15,000

b. $10,000 & $3,000

c. $3,000

Explanation:

a. The amount of loss deducted in a year will be equal to the stock basis in the company.

The excess amount of loss will be carry to the future years and deducted, if there is conditional stock basis in the company.

The amount is Jessica allowed to deduct in year 1: ($45,000 x 1/3) = $15,000

b. Her stock and debt bases in the corporation at the end of year 1:

=> Stock basis at the end of year 1: $10,000 - $10,000 = 0

=> Remaining amount of loss: $15,000 - $10,000 = $5,000 => Remaining loss: $5,000 - $3,000 = $2,000

So, Jessica has a suspended loss of $2,000 at the end of year 1

c. The profit is $12,000

Share of J: $12,000 x 1/3 = $4,000

Out of this $4,000, the $3,000 (one-third) will be its debt basis and $1,000 will be stock basis.

The amount of $2,000 loss will first be deducted from the stock basis and then from the debt basis.
