Which statement about American prisons is correct?

1 answer:

Schach [20]

Answer:

$100,000

Explanation:

According to the internal revenue service ''In most situations, the basis of an asset is its cost to you. The cost is the amount you pay for it in cash, debt obligations, and other property or services. Cost includes sales tax and other expenses connected with the purchase.''

Therefore Sebastian's basis in these two assets is unconnected with the fair market value of the assets but with the cost.

Purchased Equipment is always recorded at its acquisition cost or its net book value, that is after deducting the accumulated depreciation . In the scenario we have no depreciation figures, hence the basis is the cost of $100,000

Why is the shape of the production possibilities frontier (PPF) often curved instead of straight? The productive efficiency of a

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Typically, some resources are better suited for producing one good than another, which means that there are diminishing returns when moving such resources away from producing what they are best suited for.

Explanation:

A production possibility curve shows the different combinations of two goods that can be produced using all the given resources. Since resources are scarce, to increase the production of one good we need to decrease production of the other.

But resources are specialized and cannot be perfectly substituted between their two uses. So as we go on increasing production of one good the opportunity cost of sacrificing its alternative goes on increasing.

Because of this increasing opportunity cost the shape of the frontier is downward sloping, bent outwards and concave to the origin.
