Hiro owns and operates a small business that provides economic consulting services. During the year he spends $57,000 on travel

to clients and other expenses. In addition, he owns a computer that he uses for business. If he didn’t use the computer, he could sell it and earn yearly interest of $100 on the money created through this sale. Hiro’s total revenue for the year is $100,000. Instead of working as a consultant for the year, he could teach economics at a small local college and make a salary of $50,000.

The salary Hiro earns from his job teaching economics is irrelevant information when calculating his economic profit.C.

Answer: D. Since Hiro’s economic profit is negative, he would be better off if he didn’t operate the consulting business and taught economics instead.

Explanation:

Economic Cost is calculated by taking into account all costs, both Implicit and Explicit. Implicit Costs are also known as Opportunity costs and are referred to as the income you could be earning if you were doing the alternative.

Hiro's Economic Cost can hence be calculated by,

Economic Cost = Implicit costs + Explicit Costs

                            = (50,000 + 100) + 57,000

                            = <em>$107,000</em>

Subtracting that from his Revenue per year gives,

= 100,000 - 107,000

= -<em>$7,000</em>

Hiro is experiencing an Economic Loss by operating his business and would be better off Teaching Economics at the small local college.

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The correct answer for option (a) is 28.29% and for option (B) is 2.65%.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Initial price = $117

Ending price = $147

Dividend = $3.10

(a) We can calculate the Total return percentage by using following formula:

Total return percentage = ( Ending Price - Initial Price + Dividend) ÷ Initial Price

By putting the value, we get

Total return percentage = ( $147 - $117 + $3.10) ÷ ( $117)

= 28.29% (approx).

(b). we can calculate the dividend yield by using following formula:

Dividend Yield = Dividend ÷ Initial Price

By putting the value, we get

Dividend Yield = $3.10 ÷ $117

= 2.65%

anygoal [31]

Answer:

Consider the following explanation

Explanation:

Foreign tax credit allowable is the minimum of Federal Income Tax and Income tax paid in foreign country. Here, Jimenez had paid 40% (2,000,000/5,000,000) income tax in foreign country. So. Jimenez will only be eligible to take foreign tax credit of 1,050,000 i.e. 5,000,000 * 21% and there will be carryover of $950,000 (2,000,000 - 1,050,000) foreign taxes.

There is carryover tax when we cannot use the whole amount of foreign tax credit in the current year and the balance foreign tax is carried over to future years.
