The country of Lessidinia has a tax system identical to that of the United States. Suppose someone in Lessidinia bought a parcel
kati45 [8]

Answer:

after tax real rate of capital gain = - 30%

so correct option is B. -30 percent

Explanation:

given data

bought land = 20,000 foci

price Index = 100

sold land = 100,000 foci

price index = 600

tax rate = 20 percent

to find out

Compute the taxes on the nominal gain and the change in the real value of the land and after-tax real rate of capital gain

solution

first we get here tax on nominal gains that is express as

tax on nominal gains = tax rate × gain

tax on nominal gains = 20% × ( 100,000 - 20,000 )

tax on nominal gains = 16000 foci

and

Real gain is here as

Real gain = sold land - price index ( bought land )

Real gain = $100,000 - 6 ( 20000)

Real gain = - $20000 foci

and

now after tax real rate of capital gain will be here as

after tax real rate of capital gain = (Real gain - tax on nominal gains ) ÷ ( sold land - real gain )   × 100

after tax real rate of capital gain = \frac{-20000-16000}{120000}  × 100

after tax real rate of capital gain = - 30%

so correct option is B. -30 percent

In a task assignment situation, in how many different ways can five jobs be assigned to five machines if each job must be assign
Tcecarenko [31]
<span>120
   The simple answer is that 5 items can be arranged 5! (5 factorial) different ways. But let's expand upon that brief answer. We have 5 jobs and 5 machines with which to perform those jobs. So let's look at the 1st machine. Any of 5 of the jobs may be assigned to it. Now we have 4 jobs left unassigned. So let's look at the 2nd machine. For that machine, any of the 4 remaining jobs may be assigned to it, leaving 3 unassigned jobs. We can continue in that fashion, assigning at random one the of 3 remaining jobs to the 3rd machine, one of the 2 remaining jobs to the 4th machine, and finally, the only unassigned job to the 5th machine. So there's 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 5! = 120 different ways to assign those 5 jobs to all 5 machines.</span>
