Answer:

$60,000

Explanation:

The computation of Money supply expand is shown below:-

Excess reserves = Actual - required

=$85,000 - (0.25 × $240,000)

=$85,000 - $60,000

= $15,000

Money supply expand = Excess reserves ÷ Reserve ratio percentage

= $15,000 ÷ 25%

= $60,000

Therefore for computing the money supply expand we simply deduct the reserve ratio percentage from excess reserves.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The correct answer to the problem is 7.728%

Explanation:

Lucas marginal tax rate = 32 percent

Tax rate on dividends = 16 percent

Dividend yield of a dividend-paying stock (with no growth potential) = 9.20 percent.

To determine the interest rate a municipal bond have to offer for Lucas to be indifferent between the two investments from a cash flow perspective =

Dividend yield multiplied by ( 1- tax rate on dividends)

Jennifer's pass-through business has total qualified business income of $100,000 and combined REIT dividends/PTP income of $20,0
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B. $24,000

Explanation:

The pass-through deduction or the section 199A deduction as it is officially called is a reduction by 20 percent of your income tax provided by the new tax law set in place for the 2018 tax year. It is eligible for small business owners who run a pass-through business and whose tax income doesn't exceed $157,500 for singles and $315,000 for married couples.

To calculate the figure, you simply need to find 20% of your business profit. Jennifer has a taxable income of $150,000, which is less than the $157,500 limit to qualify for the pass-through deduction. So her pass through deduction becomes

20% of $100000 + $20,000

= 20/100 x $120,000

= $24,000

Note:  Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) dividend income and qualified Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) income also are eligible for the pass-through deduction by law, hence the addition of the $20,000.

Q 7.37: Eric Hansen is a receiving clerk who has just been denied a raise. He has approached his subordinate, who is the new sto
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Human element; collusion.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Eric Hansen is a receiving clerk who has just been denied a raise. He has approached his subordinate, who is the new storeroom clerk, about diverting inventory to sell for personal gain. This is an example of the human element, which may lead to collusion.

Human element can be defined as a strategic technique for improving and dealing with the way or manner employees work together in a business environment in order to achieve greater organizational performance and accomplishments. Human element can be used to improve openness, sincerity and honesty among the the very many people (employees) working individually or together as a team in an organization.

In this case, when the storeroom clerk agrees to Eric's suggestion, this would lead to both of them diverting inventory to sell for personal gain. This is simply an act of collusion.

Collusion is an illegal cooperation or agreement between two or more people with an ulterior motive, for personal benefits.
