Answer:

D. + 1.69 %

Explanation:

To determine which is the correct answer to the question, we have to first evaluate whether the DOW was up or down for the day. The question provides the info that it was up 215.04 on that day. So automatically, the answer options A and C are eliminated since they represent negative changes.

To determine the percentage increase, we have to find out the prior day closing of the DOW, this is found out by subtracting the days' gain from the total level.

12,958.44 - 215.04  = 12,743.40

the gain for the day of 215.04 on the base figure represents the  % gain.

215.04 / 12743.40 = 1.69 %

Answer:

Si realizásemos una encuesta sobre qué es lo más característico del personaje de Sherlock Holmes, no nos sorprendería que el resultado fuese su conocida expresión "Elemental, querido Watson". Lo que sí resultaría sorprendente (al menos para quienes hubiesen contestado en ese sentido) es saber que tan extendida opinión entra en conflicto con la realidad de los relatos originales de dicho personaje: él nunca utilizó esa expresión. De igual forma, existen algunas ideas sobre el funcionamiento del mercado de trabajo español que creemos que no se corresponden con la realidad. Precisamente, el objetivo de este artículo es ofrecer algunos datos que permitan aportar luz sobre ciertas cuestiones (relacionadas con los contratos indefinidos, los despidos y sus costes) que se encuentran en el centro del debate actual sobre una posible reforma laboral.

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Under current tax law, no option is correct. Before 2018, option C would have been right.

Explanation:

Currently under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (from Jan. 2018 until Dec. 2025) you can only deduct interests on mortgages used to purchase, build or improve your home. In this case, Jorge will only be able to deduct the interests paid on the $130,000 he owed for the first mortgage.

Interests on home equity loans will again be deductible (up to $100,000) starting Jan. 2026.

Tasya [4]

Answer: c) High-tax

Explanation:

Municipal bonds are quite attractive because they offer returns that are free of Federal taxes which means that the return quoted on them is the after-tax return already.

For this reason their returns are usually less than corporate bond returns. Investors in high tax brackets will therefore be attracted to municipal bonds as it gives them a chance to get tax savings on amounts they would have paid as taxes.

Examples of comparative advantage show how trade between two countries can make each better off. Compared to their pre-trade pos
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Comparative advantage refers to the situation when a nation or individual is able to produce a good or service at a comparatively lower opportunity cost. The nation is said to specialize in the good or service it can produce at a lower opportunity cost.

Trade through specialization helps both the nation involved in the trade to consume more. Each nation produces more of the good it specializes in and exchanges it for the good it does not specializes in.

In this way, both of them are able to consume beyond their production possibility curves.
