Answer:

option B

Explanation:

In other to know how return fluctuation can be predicted with for instance, x%, predictability, one has to look at the normal distribution curve of return (average returns) to standard deviation of those returns. (check the attached file for additional details).

Hence, to be 95% sure that investment losses are less than 8% one needs to look at 95% of all returns which infact Mean return plos or minus 20. If the lower bound of this interval is less than 8% then the investment needs to be selected

Talja [164]

Answer:

$99,750

Explanation:

Matulis's taxes are = (asset's fair market value - asset's basis) x corporate tax rate = ($800,000 - $325,000) x 21% = $475,000 x 21% = $99,750

Since the C corporation is turning into a S corporation it must recognize the gain on holding the asset. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act set the corporate tax rate at 21%.

dupe's age and olu's add upto 25 years. Eight years ago , dupe was twice as old as olu. how old are they now?​
Bas_tet [7]

Dupe's present age = 14 years

Olu's present age = 11 years

Explanation:

  • Let Dupe's age be x. Let Olu's age be y. Since their ages add up to 25 years, x + y = 25
  • Eight years ago Dupe's age was double that of Olu's age. Solving by simultaneous equations. Four methods are Elimination Method, Graphical Method, Substitution Method, and    Matrix Method. Let us try out Elimination method for solving a pair of simultaneous linear equations that reduces one equation to one that has only a single variable. Once this has been done, the solution is the same as that for when one line was vertical or parallel.
  • Therefore, eight years ago, Dupe's age was 6 and Olu's age was 3 so that x=2y becomes, 6=2*3. Eight years hence, x=6+8=14 and y=3+8=11. That makes, x or Dupe's age as 14 years and y or Olu's age as 11 years.

Why can the owner of a business withdraw assets from that business for personal use?
HACTEHA [7]
<span>Since the business owner, by definition, is the person who controls all those assets and is responsible for them, he/she can take parts of them home if they so choose. This is a way to manage resources, especially if those resources are still useful in some way.</span>
