A) Sell short 100 ABC at 69.45 Stop
Explanation:
When an order is placed below the market (OBLOSS - Open Buy Limits Open Sell Stops) it will be adjusted on the specialist's book for distributions on ex date. This open sell stop order = $70 - $0.55 (dividend) = $69.45
So the adjusted order will be: Sell short 100 ABC at 69.45 stop.
Answer:
the last part of the question is missing, so I looked for it:
a. Randy received $2,200 of interest this year and no other investment income or expenses. His AGI is $75,000.
b. Randy had no investment income this year, and his AGI is $75,000.
a) Randy can deduct $31,575:

b) Randy can deduct $29,050
- the mortgage interest is deductible
- the car loan interest is not deductible
- since he had no investment revenue, he cannot deduct any investment interest expense
Answer:
B) induces buyers to consume less, and sellers to produce less.
Explanation:
Taxes are a necessary evil since they always increase the price of the goods and services that consumers buy and decrease the amount of money that producers receive from selling their goods and services. But taxes are necessary and unavoidable.
But once a market assumes all the effects of existing taxes it reaches an equilibrium price that both consumers and producers are satisfied with. If a new tax is levied than the deadweight losses are greater since consumer surplus and producer surplus are both reduced. This will lead to a reduction in the incentive that both consumers and producers have to engage in transactions. Many times consumers will substitute heavily taxed goods for other goods since they feel they are getting more from consuming those goods (consumer surplus). The same happens to producers, many producers will change their heavily taxed goods for other goods.
If the price elasticity of demand or supply of a certain good is large (elastic demand and supply), the deadweight loss will be greater.
