Answer:

D) $40,000

Explanation:

The Joneses qualify for a Section 121 exemption since they lived at their house for 20 years. They are exempted from paying capital gains taxes on the first $500,000 ($250,000 if single) in realized gains from selling their home.

Joneses taxable gain = $750,000 (sales price) - $210,000 (basis) - $500,000 (section 121) = $40,000

They will have to recognize only $40,000 in gains.

Suppose Congress is considering raising the top federal marginal tax rate from 35% to 40%. Senator Jones believes the elasticity
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Solution-

According to Senator Jones, the elasticity of taxable income is larger, which means that due to a certain percentage rise in taxes, the taxable income rises by a greater percentage. Also, according to Senator Smith, the elasticity of taxable income is small, which means that due to a certain percentage rise in taxes, the taxable income rises by a smaller percentage.

(I) Under Senator Jones assumptions, due to rise in taxes, the taxable income has risen considerably as compared to Senator Smith assumptions. Thus the estimates of additional revenue from the tax increase will be larger under Senator Jones assumptions, compared to Smith's assumptions.

(ii) Since under Senator Jones assumptions, elasticity of taxable income is large. So due to rise in taxes, there is a significant proportional rise in taxable income under Jone's assumptions compared to Senator Smith assumptions. Thus the costs of the tax increase is borne more under Senator Jones assumptions , compared to Smith's assumptions.
