Answer:

a). The number of people in the working age population=125 million

b). The number of people who are part of the working-age population but not part of the labor force=50 million

c). The number of unemployed workers=6 million

d). The number of unemployed workers=69 million

Explanation:

a).

The labor force is the total number of people who are employed and also the unemployed who are looking for work.

The labor participation rate is a percentage expressed as;

Labor participation rate=(total number of employed+unemployed looking for work)/Total number in working age population

where;

total number of employed and unemployed looking for work=75 million

labor participation rate=60%

total number in working age population=p

replacing;

(60/100)=75 million/p

60 p=75 million×100

p=75 million×100/60

p=125 million

The number of people in the working age population=125 million

b). Working age population but not labor force=Total working age population-labor force

=(125-75)=50 million

The number of people who are part of the working-age population but not part of the labor force=50 million

c). Unemployment rate=(number of unemployed persons/labor force)×100

where;

number of unemployed persons=x

Unemployment rate=8%

labor force=75 million

replacing;

8/100=x/75 million

x=75 million×8/100=6 million

The number of unemployed workers=6 million

d). Labor force=number of employed workers+number of unemployed workers

where;

labor force=75 million

number of employed workers=y

number of unemployed workers=6 million

replacing;

75 million=y+6 million

y=(75-6) million

y=69 million

The number of unemployed workers=69 million

Your portfolio has a beta of 1.28. The portfolio consists of 25 percent U.S. Treasury bills, 31 percent Stock A, and 44 percent
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

2.21

Explanation:

Portfolio beta = Respective beta*Respective weight

<em>Beta of market=1;Beta of risk-free assets=0</em>

1.28 = (0.25*0) + (0.31*1) + (0.44*Beta of Stock B)

1.28 = 0 + 0.31 + 0.44*Beta of Stock B

1.28 - 0.31 = 0.44*Beta of Stock B

Beta of Stock B = 0.97/0.44

Beta of Stock B = 2.204545454545455

Beta of Stock B = 2.21

Rob's wife, Marie, has a wage income of $250,000. They jointly sold stocks in 2019 and generated a long-term capital gain of $13
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to IR Many individuals, including owners of businesses operated through sole proprietorships, partnerships, S corporations, trusts and estates may be eligible for a qualified business income deduction, also called the section 199A deduction. Some trusts and estates may also claim the deduction directly.

The deduction allows them to deduct up to 20 percent of their qualified business income (QBI), plus 20 percent of qualified real estate investment trust (REIT) dividends and qualified publicly traded partnership (PTP) income. Income earned by a C corporation or by providing services as an employee isn't eligible for the deduction.

1. QBI component. This component of the deduction equals 20 percent of QBI from a domestic business operated as a sole proprietorship or through a partnership, S corporation, trust or estate. Depending on the taxpayer's taxable income, the QBI Component is subject to limitations including:

 

a. The type of trade or business,

b. The amount of W-2 wages paid by the qualified trade or business, and

c. The unadjusted basis immediately after acquisition (UBIA) of qualified property held by the trade or business.

These limitations do not apply to taxpayers with taxable income at or below a certain threshold. For 2018, the threshold amount is $315,000 for a married couple filing a joint return, and $157,500 for all other taxpayers.

STEPS ARE:

1. Original QBID = 154K*20% = 30,800

2. Wage/Cap. Investment limitation: a) wage limitation = 58K*50%= 29,000

b) wage/capital limit. = wage(58K*25%) +capital(300K*2.5%) =14,500+7,500=22K

We take the larger of them => 29K

3) Since original QBID is greater than wage limitation, we must use reduction ratio. In this case:

408K (taxable income) - 315K(threshold)/100,000 = 0.93

4) Now we subtract the wage limitation from original QBID (30,800 - 29,000) * 0.93= 1,674.

5) Finally, subtract that from original QBID 30,800-1,674=29,126.

29,126 their final QBID
