Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

Supply is buyers ability & willingness to sell at given price, period of time.

Elasticity of Supply is change in supply by buyers, in response to price change.

Supply Elasticity is as undermentioned in following cases :-

  • Zero (Perfectly Inelastic) - Quantity supplied doesn't change with price change.
  • Inelastic - Quantity supplied change <  price change.
  • Elastic - Quantity supplied change > price change
  • Infinite (Perfectly Elastic) - Quantity supplied responds infinitely high to price change, prices stay constant.

Given : Fishermen must sell all his daily catch before it spoils; means he will have to sell daily produce <u>irrespective</u> of any price change (rise / fall). So, the elasticity of supply is zero.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The relevant tax issues are as follows:

- Is the loss a theft loss or an investment loss?

- Is the loss subject to either the personal loss limits or the limits on itemized deductions?

- How is the amount of the loss determined?

- In which year can the loss be taken?

- Is there a way to receive a tax benefit for the full amount of income recognized in prior years?

The irrelevant tax issue is:

- Did John have other casualty or theft losses within the last five years?

Explanation:

In this scenario John invested and provided Randy with a power of attorney to use $200,000 to purchase and sell securities on his behalf.

The earnings were to be reinvested, but John realised in 2020 that Randy was running a Ponzi scheme and his account was zero.

As John will most likely not be possible a casualty loss may be allowed.

Since the loss happened in 2017 when he invested the theft loss will be deducted in that year.

He will be able to deduct his losses under 165.

Deductions are allowed for losses in a tax year that is not covered by insurance.

Losses that can be claimed are limited to:

- Losses in business or trade

- Losses in transactions for profit

- Losses as a result of theft, fire, storm, or shipwreck.

Kobotan [32]

Answer: $1,203.49

Explanation:

The equal contributions will be an annuity. The $3,500 already there will also grow at 6% for 3 years. Expression is;

8,000 = ( 3,500 * ( 1 + 6%)^3) + Contribution * Future value interest factor of annuity, 3 years, 6%

8,000 = 4,168.56 + Contribution * 3.1836

Contribution = (8,000 - 4,168.56) / 3.1836

Contribution = $1,203.49

Trusper Company was organized on January 1, Year 1 and has had 1,000 shares of $200 par value, 10% cumulative preferred stock ou
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

$50,000

Explanation:

Generally, preferred stockholders receive dividends earlier than common stockholders. Moreover, as the preference shareholders are cumulative, if they do not receive dividends current year, they will receive in the next year. Finally, preferred dividend is fixed until there are new issuance of preferred stock.

Preferred dividends for Year 1 = 1,000 shares × $200 × 10% = $20,000

For year 2 = $20,000

Given, total dividends in year 1 = $15,000

Therefore, company provides $15,000 to preferred dividends. No common dividends in year 1.

However, in the next year (Year 2), the company will pay $5,000 + $20,000 = $25,000 to preferences shareholders.

Therefore, remaining dividends are for common stockholders.

Year 2 common stockholders dividends = $75,000 - $25,000 = $50,000.
