Answer: 13.75% ; 16.48%
Explanation:
Year 0:
Microsoft: Current value = 100 at $37 = $3700
Apple: Current value = 100 at $43 = $4300
Portfolio value = $3700 + $4300 = $8000
Year 1:
Microsoft: value at year 1 = 100 at $42 = $4200
Apple: value at year 1= 100 at $49 = $4900
Portfolio value = $4200 + $4900 = $9100
Year 2:
Microsoft: value at year 2 = 100 at $47 = $4700
Apple: value at year 2 = 100 at $59 = $5900
Portfolio value = $4700 + $5900 = $10600
Therefore, Portfolio returns for year 1 will be:
= (value at the end of year 1 / current value) - 1
= (9100 / 8000) - 1
= 1.1375 - 1
= 0.1375
= 13.75%
Portfolio returns for year 2 will be:
= (value at the end of year 2 / value at the end of year 1) - 1
= (10600 / 9100) - 1
= 16.48%
Answer: Refundable Tax Credit
Explanation:
When a tax credit is able to reduce your tax liability to below zero and then the remainder is returned to you, that is a Refundable Tax Credit. For Instance, if you get a Refundable tax credit from the IRS of $300 and your Tax Liability is $250 then not only do you not have to pay the liability but the IRS will give you $50 which is the remainder after the tax credit reduced the liability to $0.
If you have $0 in Liability, you can still apply for a Refundable Tax Credit which means that you will be paid the whole thing.
Some people therefore first calculate their taxes and then remove the deductions and apply for Non-refundable tax credits and then when their liability is at the lowest, they apply for a Refundable Tax Credit which then means that they can stand a chance to get something from the IRS.
