Answer:

$31,000

Explanation:

Given:

Net Proceeds of old house = $266,000

Adjusted basis amount = $235,000

Cost of new house = $198,000

Computation of Capital Gain:

Capital Gain = Selling Price of particular capital - Adjusted basis amount of capital

Capital gain = $266,000 - $235,000 = $31,000

Therefore, capital gain of Elizabeth from sold her home is $31,000

The price elasticity of the loan taken by the entrepreneur comes out to be 10.

<h3>What is the price elasticity of demand?</h3>

The price elasticity of demand is an indicator used to determine the sensitivity of demanded quantity with respect to its corresponding price.

Given values:

Change in quantity demanded: 50%

Change in price: 5%

Computation of price elasticity of demand:

\rm\ Price \rm\ elasticity \rm\ of \rm\ business \rm\ loan=\frac{\rm\ Change \rm\ in \rm\ quantity \rm\ demanded}{\rm\ Change \rm\ in \rm\ price} \\\rm\ Price \rm\ elasticity \rm\ of \rm\ business \rm\ loan=\frac{50\%}{5\%} \\\rm\ Price \rm\ elasticity \rm\ of \rm\ business \rm\ loan=10

Therefore, when the change in quantity demanded is 50% with the change in the price is 5%, then the price elasticity of a business loan is equal to 10.

Assume a division of Hewlett-Packard currently makes 12,000 circuit boards per year used in producing diagnostic electronic inst
madam [21]

Answer:

The net benefit is -$26,000

Explanation:

Given the above information,

The total cost of manufacturing 12,000 circuit boards

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Total purchase price

= 12,000 × $34

= $408,000

Fixed overhead cost applied

= 12,000 × $6

= $72,000

The rental income = $46,000

Outsourcing cost

= Total purchase price + Fixed overhead cost applied - Rental income

= $408,000 + $72,000 - $46,000

= $434,000

Therefore, Net benefit

= Total cost of manufacturing - Outsourcing cost

=$408,000 - $434,000

= -$26,000

While the evidence suggests that over long periods of time that stocks will outperform bonds, individuals with a long-term inves
Scrat [10]

Answer:

Stocks and Bonds

Yes.  It is a rational behavior for individuals with a long-term investment horizon to choose to invest in bonds rather than investing in stocks despite the overwhelming "evidence that suggests that over long periods of time stocks still outperform bonds."

Rational behavior involves making rational choices that provide optimal levels of benefit or utility for the individual. People who make rational choices would rather choose bonds with lower risks and returns than stocks with higher risks and returns.

Explanation:

Every rational investor would prefer to reduce her risk exposure instead of increasing it.  Every investor is also aware that  investments with higher risks attract higher returns.  However, determining the certainty of the returns is difficult.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer: A. there has been a major increase in the amount of transfer payments the government makes through programs such as Social Security and unemployment insurance.

Explanation:

Since the 1950s, the US government budget for Transfer Payments to Social Security Programs and Unemployment benefits has increased tremendously.

The main transfer payments are Disability and Pension/ Retirement payments and they have been on the rise since the 50s.

These Transfer Payments are both a show of Humanitarianism as well as a form of Economic Investment as they help stimulate the Economy during times or Economic Distress by pouring money into it.

A typical example would be the $1,200 that Congress voted to provide direct cash payments of which totaled around $250 billion in March this year to help Americans who were hit hard by the lockdowns that have crippled much of the American economy.
