Answer:

Allison can maximize her tax benefits by taking the Lifetime Learning Credit which results in a $300 tax credit.

Explanation:

Education credit:

Allison doesn't qualify for the American Opportunity Tax Credit (AOTC) since that only covers the first four years of college and even if she never attended college before, she would need to be enrolled at least half time.

She qualifies for the Lifetime Learning Credit (LLC) but it only covers 20% of the first $10,000 of expenses, in this case = $1,500 x 20% = $300 benefit

Tuition and fees deduction:

Allison can deduct $1,500 from her gross income = $1,500 x 15% tax rate = $225 benefit

djyliett [7]

Answer:

The answer is 91% or Supposed to be 0.00905

Explanation:

We can use the relative purchasing power parity equation:

Ft = S0 × [1 + (hFC – hUS)]t

We can find:

Z 3.00 =Z 2.92 [1 + (hFC – hUS)]3    

hFC – hUS = (Z 3.00/Z 2.92)1/3 – 1

hFC – hUS = .00905

The Inflation in Poland is expected to exceed that in the U.S. by 91% over this period.

VikaD [51]

Answer:

a decrease in assets and a decrease in equity.

Consider the following information: Portfolio Expected Return Beta Risk-free 6 % 0 Market 10.2 1.0 A 8.2 1.4 a. Calculate the re
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

a. The return predicted by CAPM for a portfolio with a beta of 1.4 is 11.88%

b. The alpha of portfolio A is -3.68%

Explanation:

The formula for computing the return by Capital Assets Pricing Method (CAPM) model.

Expected return = Risk Free rate + (Beta × Market Risk Premium)

where,

Market risk premium = market return - risk free rate

Now, putting the values in the above equation

a. Expected return = 0.06 + 1.4 × (0.102 - 0.06)

= 0.06 + 1.4 × 0.042

= 0.06 + 0.0588

= 0.1188

= 11.88 %

Thus, the return predicted by CAPM for a portfolio with a beta of 1.4 is 11.88%.

b. The alpha should be = Portfolio expected return - expected return

                                      = 8.20 - 11.88 %

                                      = -3.68%

Thus, the alpha of portfolio A is -3.68%
