Answer:

An ex post facto law is a law that punishes an action retroactively even if the action was not considered illegal by the time it took place. It can also increase the penalty of an action already judged. The U.S. Constitution prohibits the Congress and States to pass ex post facto laws under the principle that one must be judged according to the laws valid before the action took place, not after.

The tax assessment ratio for a house valued at $250,000 is 80%. If the tax rate is $2.00 per $100 what is the annual tax?

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

$4,000

Explanation:

First, you have to determine the 80% of $250,000:

$250,000*0.8= $200,000

Then, you can use the rule of three to determine the annual tax:

$2→$100

x ← $200,000

x=(200,000*2)/100=$4,000

According to this, the answer is that if the tax rate is $2.00 per $100, the annual tax is $4,000.

Explanation:

It is clearer if I explained with an example:

Let suppose that a nation´s real GDP for 2018 was 1000. In scenario A you will have:

2019:1000*3.5%=1035

2020:1035*3.5%=1071,2

and so on, the same for scenario B

2019: 1000*4,5%= 1045

2020: 1045*4,5%= 1092

and so on.

I attached an excel table where you can see that: in the first scenario, between year 20 and 21 (2038 and 2039) the GDP will double and in the second one, between year 15 and 16 GDP will double. The answer is 2.

Answer:

The answer is A. 19-23

Explanation:

The bid price is the price that the dealer is willing to buy and ask price is the price that the seller is willing to offer.

In the $/£ bid-ask quote of $1.2519-$1.2523, you would notice that the first three number(1.25) are the same for both the bid and ask quite. So it is a known fact that it is always the last two that is chosen.

The difference between bid and ask price is called spread.

Option B is wrong because it was written incorrectly.
