Answer:

Increasing government spending in the form of infrastructure and welfare

In order to reduce the national debt, the government need to take a conscious measure to use the government budget as little as possible.

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

1,000 shares

Explanation:

The 318 attribution rule states that stock owned directly or indirectly by a partnership is considered to be owned by any partner that owns 5% or more in the business.

This is relevant to family owned businesses and is a way to mark out principal owners of a business in order to avoid tax evasion and fraud.

In this scenario John directly owns 700 of the outstanding shares. But according to the 318 attribution rule, since he he is a 50% partner he owns half of the outstanding 2,000 shares. That is 1,000 shares.

You deposit $100 in an account that pays 6 percent annual interest, compounded quarterly. What will your deposit grow to in 3 ye

Burka [1]

Answer:

$119.56

Explanation:

We will use compound interest formula to solve this problem.

The formula is:

$F=P(1+r)^t$

Where

F is the future value

P is the present amount

r is the rate of interest per period

t is the number of periods

Here,

F is the value we want, after 3 years

P is the present amount, $100

r is the rate of interest per quarter (per period)

Given r = 6% annually, so that would make:

6%/4 = 1.5% per quarter, or 1.5/100 = 0.015

Also, t is the number of quarters in 3 years, that would be 4*3 = 12

Now, substituting, we get our answer:

$F=P(1+r)^t\\F=100(1+0.015)^{12}\\F=100(1.015)^{12}\\F=119.56$

The first answer choice is right, $119.56
