Answer: $300 billion

Explanation:

The real deficit that a Government has is one that has been adjusted for inflationary effects. It is calculated by subtracting the inflation rate times the total debt from the nominal deficit.

= 1.5 trillion - 1.2 trillion

= $300 billion

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

$20,400

Explanation:

The computation of the bad debt expense for 2020 is shown below:

Ending balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts = Beginning balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts + bad debts -write off amount

where,

Ending balance of allowance for uncollected accounts is

= $20,400

So, the bad debt expense is

= $40,000 - $40,000 + $20,400

The disadvantage of owning a mutual fund that invests in common stocks is the risk of loss of ___.
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

"Principal" Since the value of common stock could decline to zero, investors do carry the risk of losing their entire principal. That risk is greatly reduced when investing in bonds, because if you hold a bond to its maturity date, you will at least get back the par value ($1000) of the bond.

Hope this helps :) -Mark Brainiest Please :)
