The answer is $0.00 (third option).
Explanation:
During the year of 2018, the annual exclusion of both federal and state tax to cash gifts was up to $15,000 per individual. <em>Annual exclusion</em> means that there's up to a certain amount of money that can be gifted without being taxable. In this case, John and Joan's cash gift falls within the limit.
When couples gift money to their family members, the limit is precisely $15,000 per relative, individually; meaning the can gift up to a total of $60,000 without being subject to gift tax.
That would be considered fraud. He would be lying to the IRS about his gambling thing going on in the back. He would most likely get some fines and charged for the money he earned from that side business.
Answer:
$10
Explanation:
Interior airline is expected to make a dividend payment of $3
The growth rate of the dividend is 10%
The risk free rate of the return is 4%
The expected return on the market portfolio is 13%
The stock beta of interior airline is 4
The first step is to calculate the cost of equity
r= 4% + 4(13%-4%)
r= 4% + 4(9)
r= 4% + 36
r= 40%
Therefore, the value of the stock using the constant growth DMM can be calculated as follows
Value of the stock= 3/(40/100-10/100)
= 3/(0.4-0.1)
= 3/0.3
= $10
Hence the value of the stock is $10
Answer:
B. Negative, Negligible
Explanation:
Interest Rate is negatively related to Investment. Higher Interest Rate increases cost of investment, lower interest rate reduces cost of investment.
However, Investment in a particular sector/ industry is also defined by: Concentration of that sector in entire investment outlay & Income Elasticity of the sector's commodity demand. Implicatively, a sector with huge concentration of investment outlay & products with high income elasticity will have more Interest rate sensitive Investment and vice versa.
Construction Industry being very capital intensive has higher investment magnitude & also more Income Elastic demand. So, impact of higher interest rate will impact this industry more.
Necessity goods Industries are less capital intensive , investment concentrated & also have less Income Elastic Demand. So, impact of higher interest rate will impact this industry less.
<em>(Demand's Income Elasticity is the responsiveness of a good's demand to change in Income. It is more in luxurious goods, less in necessity goods)</em>
