Alona [7]

Answer:

B. The cost of utilities is deductible for AGI

Explanation:

The entire cost of the utilities would be for AGI deduction assuming no personal use of the condo. The employer portion of Marilyn's self-employment tax would be deductible as well.

Adjusted gross income (AGI) is a measure of income calculated from your gross income and used to determine how much of your income is taxable. It is the starting point for calculating a filer's tax bill in the United States and, among other things, is the basis for many deductions and credits. When filing your taxes online—as about 80% of filers do—the software you use will calculate your AGI for you.

Ben invested $20,000 into a money market account and took out $5,000 at the end of year 5. He found out at the end of 10 years t
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

r = 11.5%

Explanation:

Given data:

invested amount $20,000

withrawl amount after 5 year is $5000

Amount at the end of 10th yr is $50,000

present value  is given as

PV =\frac{ A}{(1 + r)^n}

where

A - amount after given n year

PV = \frac{5000}{(1 + r)^5} + \frac{50000}{(1 + r)^{10}}

20,000 =  \frac{5000}{(1 + r)^5} + \frac{50000}{(1 + r)^{10}}

 Let (1 + r)^5 = t

squaring on both side

(1 + r)^{10} = t^2

20,000 =  \frac{5000}{t} + \frac{50000}{t^2}

20 = \frac{5}{t} + \frac{50}{t^2}

20 t^2 - 5t - 50 = 0

solving for t we get

t = 1.711

so, r = 1.711^{1/5} -1 = 0.115 = 11.5\%
