The correct answer is option b.
Explanation:
Shen is working in a country where the inflation rate is high.
He gets a salary every two weeks.
After receiving his salary he immediately goes out and buys all the goods he is going to need over the next two weeks.
He converts the remaining salary in a more stable currency.
He does this in order to prevent his salary from losing purchasing power.
This effort that he is making to prevent his real income from losing value is called the shoe-leather cost of inflation.
The shoe-leather cost can be defined as the cost of time and effort made to prevent the cash holdings from losing their value.

Explanation:
To calculate investment interest expense dedcution, we need to know the total investment income & total investment interest expenses
Then there're 2 scenarios as followings:
- If the investment interest expenses are less than the net investment income, the entire investment interest expense is deductible.
- If the investment interest expenses are more than the net investment income, we can deduct the expenses up to the net investment income amount. The rest of the expenses are carried forward to next year.
In this example, Ramon's investment income is $72,000 ($34,500 of interest and a $37,500 net capital gain on the sale of securities); is lower than his interest expenses of $83,100.
So Ramon is entiled to deduct $72,000 all the entire investment interest expense in current year

checking deposits 200 debit
cash 200 credit
<u>PART II:</u><u> Deposit in a checking account</u>
This is the opposite. The bank reserve must increase by 10% of the deposit
650 x 10% = 65
And the outstanding liaiblities increase by the full amount as later the bank will give back 650 dollars to Dalon in the future.
