Two years ago, Kimberly became a 30 percent partner in the KST Partnership with a contribution of investment land with a $14,750

Jlenok [28]

Answer: A) $3,425 B)$5,950 C)$18,175

Explanation:

a)Kimberly's capital gain = land's Fair market value -non contributed land's Fair market value = $26,075- $22,650= $3,425

b)Kimberly's basis after the distribution = basis in KST + gain - Carryover basis in land = $20,700 + $3, 425 - $18,175 = $5,950

c) KST's basis on the land =KST land's basis on contribution+ Kimberly's gain = $14,750+$3, 425 = $18,175

On January 1, 2021, the Allegheny Corporation purchased equipment for $295,000. The estimated service life of the equipment is 1

svetlana [45]

Answer:

2021 = $50,000

2022 = $45,000

2021 = $275,000

2022 = $0

Explanation:

a. Sum-of-the-years'-digits.

Sum of digits for the 10 years will be :

Year 1 = 10

Year 2 = 9

Year 3 = 8

Year 4 = 7

Year 5 = 6

Year 6 = 5

Year 7 = 4

Year 8 = 3

Year 9 = 2

Year 10 = 1

Sum of Digits = 55

therefore,

2021 depreciation = 10/55 x ($295,000 - $20,000)

= $50,000

2022 depreciation = 9/55 x ($295,000 - $20,000)

= $45,000

b. One hundred fifty percent declining balance.

2021 depreciation = 150% x ($295,000 - $20,000)

= $412,500

<em>Can not be charged above book value of $275,000</em>

2022 depreciation = 150% x ($295,000 - $20,000- $412,500)

= $0

Given the returns for two stocks with the following information, calculate the correlation coefficient of the returns for the tw

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The correlation coefficient of the returns for the two stocks is 0.231

Explanation:

From the question given, we apply the method called co variance

Co variance is referred to as when the co-movement of variables are measured.

The co variance is defined as:

ρ₁,₂=Cov₁,₂/σ₁ x σ₂

The Expected return of stock 1 μ1= 0.4 x 9+0.5 x 11+0.1 x 17=10.8%

The Expected return of stock 1 μ2=0.4 x 11+0.5 x 8+0.1 x 13=9.7%

The Variance of stock 1 σ²₁ is:

1 σ²₁=0.092 x 0.4+0.112 x 0.5+0.172 x 0.1−0.1082σ12=0.092 x 0.4+0.112 x 0.5+0.172 x 0.1−0.1082

=0.012180-0.011664 =0.000516

The standard deviation of stock 1 σ₁ =2√0.0005162 =0.022716 =2.2716%

Thus,

The Variance of stock 2 σ²₂ is:

2 σ²₂= 0.112 x 0.4+0.082 x 0.5+0.132 x 0.1−0.09722 =0.009730-0.009409=0.000321

The standard deviation of stock 2 σ₂ =2√0.000321 =0.017916=1.792%

Cov₁,₂=0.4 x (0.09−0.108)x (0.11−0.097)+0.5 x(0.11−0.108)x(0.08−0.097)+0.1 x(0.17−0.108)x(0.13 8)x(0.13−0.097) =-0.000094-0.000017+0.000205 =0.000094

Therefore,

ρ₁,₂=0.000094/((0.017916)x(0.022716)) =0.231
