Answer:

25%

Explanation:

Given:

Unemployed labor = 60,000

Workers wanting job = 20,000

Thus,

Total unemployed labor = Unemployed labor + Workers wanting job

=  60,000 + 20,000

or

Total unemployed labor = 80,000

Now,

the Total labor force with discouraged workers =  people are in the labor force + Workers wanting job

or

= 300,000 + 20,000

or

labor force with discouraged workers = 320,000

Therefore,

Unemployment rate with discouraged workers

=  (Total unemployed labor / labor force with discouraged workers) × 100

or

= ( 80,000 / 320,000 ) × 100

or

Unemployment rate with discouraged workers  = 25%

Answer:

The annual payment at the end of each year: $4,572.23

Explanation:

The formular for calculating Present value of Annuity is applied in this case to help us find the equal annual payment.

Applying information in the question, we have the annuity that have:

n= 10 as there are 10 equal annual payments paid at the end of each year during 10 years;

i = 8.5% per annum compounded annually, as stated in the question;

PV = Borrowed amount = $30,000;

C = the equal annual payment.

The formular for PV of Annuity: PV = (C/i) x [ 1- (1+i)^(-n)] <=> C = (PV x i) / [ 1- (1+i)^(-n)]

Thus, C = (30,000 x 8.5%) / [ 1- 1.085^(-10) ] = $4,572.23

On February 24, 2020, Allison's building, with an adjusted basis of $2,986,000 (and used in her trade or business), is destroyed
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

As a calendar-year taxpayer, Allison must make the new investment by December 31, 2020 to qualify for the nonrecognition election.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Adjusted basis of building = $2,986,000

Insurance reimbursement = $3,881,800

Gain from loss = $895,800 ($3,881,800 - $2,986,000)

Investment in new building = $3,493,620

Purchase of stock = $388,180 ($3,881,800 - $3,493,620)

b) Allison is expected to make the election for the nonrecognition of the gain from loss in his Federal Tax return in the taxable year in which the gain with respect to the loss of the building is realized.  The return must set forth the computation of the gain and other required details.

LO 8.4What is the main difference between a flexible budget and a master budget?
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Flexible budget and master budget are very different.

Explanation:

The "master budget" is the sum of all the budgets that are prepared by a company's various departments. They include financial statements that are budgeted, a financing plan and a cash forecast. They are based on one specific level of production.  

A "flexible budget" is a budget that changes or adjusts when the level of activity changes. They are dynamic in nature and can be operated on many levels of output. It is realistic and not based on assumption.
