Robin needs $25,000 to start a business. In her search for the best (low cost) loan, she has gathered the following information
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Bank A

Explanation:

To recommend from which bank Robin should borrow from, we need to calculate the interest which is the cost of borrowing from each of the banks.

Note:

Interest amount = Total amount to repay - Loan amount .................. (1)

Equation (1) is used as follows:

Bank A:

Interest = ($9,000 × 3) - $25,000 = $27,000 - $25,000 = $2,000

Interest/loan rate = ($2,000 ÷ $25,000) × 100 = 8%

Bank B:

Interest = ($7,000 × 4) - $25,000 = $28,000 - $25,000 = $3,000

Interest/loan rate = ($3,000 ÷ $25,000) × 100 = 12%

Bank C:

Interest = ($6,000 × 5) - $25,000 = $30,000 - $25,000 = $5,000

Interest/loan rate = ($5,000 ÷ $25,000) × 100 = 20%

Recommendation

Robin should borrow from Bank A since it offers the lowest loan rate of 8%.

Contributed amount = $20,000

Distribution amount = $15,000

As we know,

Taxable amount = Distribution amount - contribution amount

= $15,000 - $20,000

= - $5,000

The contribution amount is $20,000 more than the distribution amount $15,000. So distribution amount is not taxable.

She included $0 amount in her gross income this year.

Coffee bean merchants notice that coffee prices are at a historic low today but they expect the price of coffee beans to increas
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

1. Supply will decrease

Explanation:

Due to the basic economic principle that when supply superceeds the demand for goods and services, the prices of such goods and services fall. As a result of this, and an expected increase in future prices, the supply of coffee beans by coffee merchants to the markets will decrease.

This is because the merchants want to receive higher profits and to do so, they will withhold supply to sell in the next six months when the price is higher.
