A landlord entered into a 10-year lease of a building with an auctioneer, who planned to use the building itself for a storage a

rea and the covered porch at the front of the building for auctions. A term in the auctioneer’s lease stated, "Lessor agrees to maintain all structures on the property in good repair." Four years into the lease, the landlord sold the property to a buyer. The buyer did not agree to perform any obligations under the lease. As instructed, the auctioneer began paying rent to the buyer. In the fifth year of the lease, the porch roof began to leak. Citing the lease terms, the auctioneer asked the buyer to repair the roof. He continually refused to do so. The auctioneer finally repaired the roof herself at a cost of $2,000. The auctioneer then brought an appropriate lawsuit to recover the money. Absent any other facts, what is the auctioneer likely to recover?

Answer:

$2,000

Explanation:

Usually, the landlord is required to notify the tenant if he/she plans to sell the property, but regardless of who owns the property (the original landlord or  a new landlord), the contract terms are valid and must be honored by both the current landlord and the tenant.

The new owner immediately became the new landlord and he/she assumed all the responsibilities stated in the lease contract. Since the lease contract stated that the "lessor (landlord) agreed to maintain all structures on the property in good repair", the new landlord must pay for any necessary repairs.

Lower than average per capita income characterizes emerging markets. They also experience moderate economic growth compared to the developed economy.  However,  emerging markets are presenting investors with an opportunity for high returns due to their rapid growth.

Explain how a price system moves a market toward the quilibrium price
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

By setting the price of goods and services at a level where the suppliers and consumers feel comfortable, the quantity of goods and services supplied will be the same as the quantity of goods demanded.

Explanation:

A price system is a means of arranging economic activities by setting the standard prices of goods and services in that particular economy. In this way the agents of demand and supply can have an estimate of the price of various goods and services. In this way, a supplier who doesn't know the price of a goods or service that he/she plans to sell to a different country or region can use the price system to adjust their selling price effectively. On the same note, the consumers can also acquire goods and services that they have never demanded before by using the price system to determine the standard prices for those goods or services.  

Prices are a reflection of the consensus between suppliers and consumers about the value of goods and services. The equilibrium price can be defined as the price where the quantity of goods supplied equals the quantity demanded. By setting the price of goods and services at a level where the suppliers and consumers feel comfortable, the quantity of goods and services supplied will be the same as the quantity of goods demanded.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

the self employment tax on 92.35% of your net income as self employed by 15.3% = $193,800 x 92.35% = $178,974.30

Miranda will pay social security (OASDI) taxes for the first $137,700 = $137,700 x 6.2% x 2 = $17,074.80

Her Medicare taxes will be calculated using $178,974.30 x 1.45% x 2 = $5,190.25

total self employment taxes = $17,074.80 + $5,190.25 = $22,265.05

Miranda can deduct 50% of her self employment taxes from her AGI = $22,265 x 50% = $11,132.50 ≈ $11,133
