Answer:

499.80

Explanation:

There is no 39.6% tax bracket, the highest marginal tax is 37%. But we can assume that Mikey had to pay 39.6% in taxes which means that he is in the seventh tax bracket (highest). Since he is classified under the highest tax bracket, he will also pay the highest capital gains rate which is 20%.

Mikey's long term capital gain = $4,950 - $2,400 = $2,550

if he paid regular income taxes = $2,550 x 39.6% = $1,009.80

since he pays capital gains taxes = $2,550 x 20% = $510

That means he saves $1,009.80 - $510 = 499.80

Bonner Automotive has shareholders' equity of $218,700. The firm owes a total of $141,000 of which 40 percent is payable within
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

$93,500

Explanation:

Net Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities

Current Assets = Total Equity + Liability - Fixed Assets

= $218,700 + $141,000 - $209,800 = $149,900

Current Liability = $141,000 X 40% = $56,400

As out of total due 40% is payable within a year, which means it is current liability.

Net working capital = $149,900 (current assets) - $56,400 (current liability)

= $93,500

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Equipment, credit, $229,100

Explanation:

we record the entry when we purchase the equipment is

we debit the equipment, and credit the cash/accounts payable depending on whether we paid the cash or purchased the equipment on account.

We debit the equipment because equipment is our asset, and when asset goes up we debit them. We credit the cash because again cash is our asset and when asset goes down we credit them.

Now at the time of disposal, we want to remove the asset from our balance sheet. Equipment is disposed now. In other words, equipment is our asset, and disposing the equipment means asset goes down, and we show this effect by credit the equipment.

What impact can good accountability mechanisms have on the admissibility of evidence in court cases? enables encryption of the e
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Option A, ENABLES ENCRYPTION OF THE EVIDENCE.

Explanation:

Admissible evidence, in a court of law, is any testimonial, documentary, or tangible evidence that is introduced to a judge or jury to prove a point (put forth by a party to the proceeding) or element in a case.

However, before an evidence can be used in a case, it must be considered admissible. And for an evidence to be admissible, it must be relevant and not excluded by rules of evidence (generally means it must not be prejudicial and must be reliable).

The government can be viewed as mechanism of accountability, particularly from a provider to a purchaser. Thus, a task for regulation is to set norms which would help make that accountability process fair and effective, this is referred to as the mechanism.

A good accountability mechanism is beneficial in the following ways:

* It has impact on admissibility of evidence in court cases.

* it allows nonrepudiation (it means sufficient evidence exists such that a user can not defend an action).

* It enables encryption of the evidence. Encryption means is the process of encoding a message or information in such a way that only authorized parties can access it and unauthorized parties cannot.

Therefore, option A best suits the question, the impact that a good accountability mechanism has on on the admissibility of evidence in court cases is that it ENABLES THE ENCRYPTION OF THE EVIDENCE.

Suppose in 2016, you purchase a house built in 2003. Which of the following would be included in the gross domestic product for
Katen [24]

Answer:

1) C) The value of the services of the real estate agent

2) B) $6,400

Explanation:

First, there are two questions lumped together as one

Question 1:  Suppose in 2016, you purchase a house built in 2003. Which of the following would be included in the gross domestic product for 2016?

A) The value of the house in 2013

B)The value of the house in 2016 minus depreciation

C) The value of the services of the real estate agent

4) The value of the house in 2016

Question 2: Suppose that a simple economy produces only four goods and services shoes. DVDs, tomatoes, and ketchup. Assume one half of the tomatoes are used in making the ketchup and the other half of the tomatoes are purchased by households.

Products         Quantity                            Price

Shoes            40                                     $60

DVDs             100                                   $18

Tomatoes       2,000                              $1

Ketchup          300                                  $4

Using the information in the above table, nominal GDP for this simple economy equals A) $7, 400. B) $6, 400. C) $5, 800 units. D) $2, 440.

<u>Answer to the First Question</u>

First the Gross Domestic Product of a Country usually represents the market value or referred to as total monetary value of finished products as well as services that were engaged in during a specific period of time and within the borders of that country. The thing about GDP is that it only reflects items that are captured as products or services and which are reported for the year.

In the question therefore, the GDP will only reflect the value of product or service that was newly created in 2016. The house was built in 2003, therefore the relevant GDP item (value of the house) was captured in 2003.

The only new value is the Value of the services of the real estate agent who was engaged in 2016 to facilitate the sales of the house.

<u>Answer to the Second Question:</u>

Nominal GDP  represents GDP valued at current market prices for products or services.

To calculate the Nominal GDP we look at the goods and then calculate based on their current market prices.

(Shoes = 40 pieces x $60) + (DVDS = 100 pieces x $18) + (Tomatoes (1000x$1 - 1/2 purchased by households)  + (Ketchup 300 x $4)

= $2400+ $1,800+ $1000+ $1,200

= $6,400
