What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of XTel immediately changes to (a) $44;

gayaneshka [121]

Suppose that Intel currently is selling at $40 per share. You buy 500 shares using $15,000 of your own money, borrowing the remainder of the purchase price from your broker. The rate on the margin loan is 8%.

What is the percentage increase in the net worth of your brokerage account if the price of Intel immediately changes to (a) $44; (b) $40; (c) $36?

Answer:

Initial worth of brokerage account = 500 × $40 = $20,000

a). if the price changes to $44, then:

worth of brokerage account becomes = 500 × $44 = $22,000

∴ percentage increase = (22,000 - 20,000) / 20,000 = 10% increase.

b). if the price changes to $40, then:

worth of brokerage account becomes = 500 × $40 = $20,000

∴ percentage increase = (20,000 - 20,000) / 20,000 = 0 or no increase.

c). if the price changes to $36, then:

worth of brokerage account becomes = 500 × $36 = $18,000

∴ percentage increase = (18,000 - 20,000) / 20,000 = 10% decrease

Suppose your principal objective is to maximize the selectivity of monochloroethane production relative to dichloroethane produc

Makovka662 [10]

We are given the series of chemical reactions:

Ethane is chlorinated in a continuous reactor:

C2H6 + Cl2 --> C2H5Cl + HCl

But some of the product monochloroethane becomes further chlorinated by an undesired side reaction:

C2H5Cl + Cl2 --> C2H4Cl2 + HCl

So to avoid the product monochloroethane to be further chlorinated, there must be fast processing or fast conversion of ethane so that there would less time for further chlorination. Hence we must design the reactor for high conversion of ethane.

To make the process economical, there must be a downstream separation step that would separate the main product monochloroethane from the undesired product dichloroethane.

Gwen inherited 100 shares of supershoes stock when her mother died on october 21, 2015; the fair market value of the stock was $

Dafna1 [17]

Answer: Gwen should report a $3,000 long-term capital gain in her income tax return.

In this question the price paid by Gwen’s mother for the shares is irrelevant because of her death.

The stock’s fair market value ($20) when Gwen inherited the shares (21st October 2015) is Gwen stepped up value.

Gwen’s gain from selling the shares is:

$Gain / (Loss) = (Selling Price per share - Stepped up value per share) * Number of shares$

$Gain = (50 - 20) *100$

$Gain = $3,000$

Gwen inherited the shares on (21st October 2015) and held the shares until (3rd july 2017), so she held the shares for more than one year after inheriting it. So, she will report a long-term capital gain on her income tax return.

erastova [34]

Answer:

C. Ron’s basis in his stock is $27,000

Explanation:

Income recognized on services rendered $21,000

Add basis of $6,000

Ron stock basis $27,000

The property contributed by Ron is not considered insignificant compared to the value of the services he has rendered, which is why the entire contribution is counted as being for property.

Hence, the control requirement is satisfied and a valid § 351 transaction results. Ron’s stock basis is $27,000 [$6,000 (basis of cattle transferred) + $21,000 (income recognized on services rendered)]

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

$83,850

Explanation:

Lacy's Linen Mart

Cost Retail

Beginning inventory$88,500 $139,000

Add: net purchases$331,000 $499,000

Goods available for sale$419,500 $638,000

Cost-to-retail percentage

= $419,500÷ $638,000 = 65%

Less: Net sales($509,000)

Estimated ending inventory at retail

($638,000 -$509,000) $ 129,000

Estimated ending inventory at cost(65% x $129,000)$83,850

Therefore the estimated inventory at June 30, 2021, would be $83,850
