Answer:
Luciana’s basis in the condominium is $120000.
Explanation:
The transfer or sale of property by the employer to the employee at less than the fair market value then it is considered as the compensation income or dividend income. However, it should be included in the income. The difference in cost and fair market value ($120000 - $85000 = $35000) is considered as the gross income which is taxable for the year.
Answer: three times as large
Explanation:
Economic order quantity will be calculated as follows:
EOQ = ✓(2DS/H)
D = Demand in units
Here S = Ordering cost = $10
H = Holding cost
Since S = $10
Therefore, EOQ will be:
= ✓(2DS/H)
= ✓(2 × 10 × D/ H)
= ✓(20D/H)
Since we're to increase the order cost from $10 per order to $90 per order, then EOQ will be:
Since S = $90
Therefore, EOQ will be:
= ✓(2DS/H)
= ✓(2 × 90 × D/ H)
= ✓(180D/H)
3✓20DH
The revised EOQ will then be 3 times as large.
Answer:
A. NPV for A= $61,658.06
NPV for B = $25,006.15
B. 1.36
1.17
Project A
Explanation:
Net present value is the present value of after tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.
NPV can be calcuated using a financial calculator
for project A :
Cash flow in
Year 0 = $(172,325)
Year 1 41,000
Year 2 47,000
Year 3 85,295
Year 4 86,400
Year 5 56,000
I = 10%
NPV = $61,658.06
for project B
year 0 = $ (145,960)
Cash flow in
Year 1 27,000
Year 2 52,000
Year 3 50,000
Year 4 71,000
Year 5 28,000
I = 10%
NPV = $25,006.15
profitability index = 1 + NPV / Initial investment
for project A, PI = $61,658.06 / 172,325 = 1.36
For project B, PI = $25,006.15 / 145,960 = 1.17
The project with the greater NPV and PI should be chosen. this is project A.
To find the NPV using a financial calculator:
1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.
3. Press compute
Answer:
B) induces buyers to consume less, and sellers to produce less.
Explanation:
Taxes are a necessary evil since they always increase the price of the goods and services that consumers buy and decrease the amount of money that producers receive from selling their goods and services. But taxes are necessary and unavoidable.
But once a market assumes all the effects of existing taxes it reaches an equilibrium price that both consumers and producers are satisfied with. If a new tax is levied than the deadweight losses are greater since consumer surplus and producer surplus are both reduced. This will lead to a reduction in the incentive that both consumers and producers have to engage in transactions. Many times consumers will substitute heavily taxed goods for other goods since they feel they are getting more from consuming those goods (consumer surplus). The same happens to producers, many producers will change their heavily taxed goods for other goods.
If the price elasticity of demand or supply of a certain good is large (elastic demand and supply), the deadweight loss will be greater.
