Answer:
C. Statute of limitations.
Explanation:
Statute of limitations are laws which states the time limit of when legal proceedings must be initiated between concerned parties from the date in which alleged offence was perpetrated.
In statue of limitations, the time limit for somebody is wronged to initiate legal action is not fixed in all jurisdiction. It means that depending on the nature of the alleged offense under statute of limitation, time allowed to institute legal actions varies.
Example of statue of limitation is that for certain states, the time limit to initiate legal case say on fraud is two years. It means that one must bring up the case in a court of law within the stipulated two years period. Once the two year grace elapse, one can no longer sue for fraud in the court of law.
Although there is no time limit for certain offence like murder case, sex offence with minor etc.
As in the case above, the judge threw away the case because according to the law of statute of limitation, a party that is wronged can only sue the wrong doer within the stipulated time as spelt out within the jurisdiction where the alleged offence was committed.
Answer:
The answer is: $4,522
Explanation:
Since Stanford doesn't operate in the restaurant business and doesn't buy the restaurant, he cannot deduct any amount for investigation costs relating to the restaurant.
Stanford doesn't operate in the bakery business but he bought the bakery, so he can deduct up to $5,000 (before amortization) for investigation costs related to the bakery. But those $5,000 are reduced by every dollar he spent over $50,000, so he can only deduct $4,000 [= $5,000 - ($51,000 - $50,000)].
The remaining $47,000 (= $51,000 - $4,000) can be amortized over 180 months, which equals $261 per month (= $47,000 / 180 months).
Since he bought the restaurant in November, he can deduct two months: $261 per month x 2 months = $522
So his total deduction for investigation expenses is = $4,000 + $522 = $4,522
Answer:
Present Value= $15,874.25
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Assume the real rate of interest is 3.00% and the inflation rate is 6.00%. What is the value today of receiving 14,488.00 in 13.00 years?
<u>This is a rare case where the interest rate is negative:</u>
Interest rate= 0.03 - 0.06= -0.03
Having said this, the present value is higher than the final value:
PV= FV/ (1+i)^n
PV= 14,488/ 0.97^3= $15,874.25
