Answer:

A.- Randy can deduct $30,200  The interest on the loan of the car is nondeductible personal interest, but he can deduct all $28,000 on the home loan as an itemized deduction.   The $4,200 of margin interests is likely investment interest, and this itemized deduction is limited oto net investment income. $2,200 of interest income qualifies as investment income and he apparently has no other invesstment expenses, the investment interest expense would be limited to Randy´s $2,200 in net investment.

B. He may deduct all %28,000 of his interest on the home loan

Alec just received his Florida broker license. Assuming the Real Estate Recovery Fund balance is at $400,000, how much of his li
Ratling [72]

The amount of Alec's license fee that went into the Real Estate Recovery Fund, which just received his Florida broker license, is <u>$3.50.</u>

<h3>
What is the real estate license fee?</h3>

The real estate license fee in Florida costs $83.75.  This amount is paid to the Florida Real Estate Commission (FREC).

FREC is the government office regulating real estate education and licensure in Florida.  FREC is under the supervision of the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR).

License fees of $3.50 are imposed as soon as the Real Estate Recovery Fund drops below $500,000.

Thus, the amount of Alec's license fee that went into the Real Estate Recovery Fund, which just received his Florida broker license, is <u>$3.50.</u>

melomori [17]

Answer:

132,000$ will be recorded by west as amortization expense for the year.

Explanation:

Depreciation/amortization is systematic allocation of cost of asset over its useful life. In this case asset cost is not given so we assume that PV of lease payment is equal to market value (660,000 dollars) of asset.

In case of leased asset the useful life taken for calculation of depreciation is lower of 1) Useful life 2) Lease term as per applicable accounting standards.

So we have taken 5 years to charge depreciation on Straight line method.

Hence by dividing 660000 by five we get our answer.

Dropping small hints to let this employee know that his or her behavior is bothering you.
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The statement has to be classified as very effective or very ineffective.

The correct answer is:

Very ineffective

Explanation:

The word effective means "something that results in the desired effect", therefore, ineffective means the opposite "something that does not result in the disired effect".

In this case, the desired effect is to modify the employee's behaviour. If we as employers drop small hints about what is bothering us, the employee may not be able to understand what we mean, and continue behaving in the same manner.

It is more effective to have clear, straightforward communication in the workplace. If an employee behaviour is bothering us, we should simply communicate it in a direct and respectful manner.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "A": economists include opportunity cost in zero economic profit, while accountants do not include opportunity cost in zero profit.

Explanation:

Normal profit is an economic term that means zero economic profits. To an economist, this is normal since total revenue equals total cost which includes both explicit and implicit costs. It differs from the accounting profit or zero profits since the latter does not take into consideration implicit cost.
