<span>Prefer the 6.1 percent tax-exempt investment.
Let's do the math and see why the tax-exempt investment is the better choice. For the 8.1% taxable investment, you get taxed at the rate of 28%. Which means that you only get to keep 100%-28% = 72% of your gains. So 0.72 * 8.1 = 5.832 which means your effective earning percentage is only 5.832% which is less than the 6.1% rate you get for the tax-exempt investment. Another consideration that wasn't taken into account for the question is the earnings on the taxable investment may push you up into a higher tax bracket. Which in turn increases the tax burden on your other investments. So the better choice here is the 6.1% tax-exempt investment even though that first glance the 8.1% investment looks higher.</span>
Answer:
Check the explanation as follows.
Explanation:
a) If it is invested in US
Current= $40 million
Interest rate= 0.28% p.m
Interest for 1 month= $40 million*0.28%= $0.112 million
Interest for 3 months= $0.112*3= $0.336 million
Total value after 3 months= $40 million+$0.336 million = $40336000.
b) If it is invested in Great Britain.
Convert $40 million into Pounds= $40 million*0.639 = Pound 25.56 million
Ivest in Great Britain for 3 months @ 0.32%
Interest per month= 25.56 million*0.32% *3 = 0.245376
Total Pounds after 3 months= Pound 25.805376
Convert into $= 25.805376/0.642 = $40195289.7156
Value if invested in great britain= $40195289.7156
Answer and explanation:
As their name describes, <em>nonprofit entities</em> are organizations whose main plan is not to have revenues out of their operations. They usually provide social services to different sectors of the population and can handle their operations mainly thanks to charity and donations. While making their budgets, these organizations cannot estimate their revenues since they cannot take donations for granted. Instead, they estimate their expenses since they will be incurred for sure.
