Answer:
A. $6,400
B. $240
C. $1,000,000
D. $30,000
Explanation:
Requirement A, C, and D:
Prizes and awards are taxable income for a taxpayer. Any awards or prizes won from the lottery or television should be added to the income. Therefore, the Winning lottery is a taxable income for Kerry, $1,000,000. Again, Receiving the award for scientific research is also taxable income for Deborah, $30,000.
The winning award for accomplishments is also a taxable income. So, receiving a $6,400 worth gift bag is a taxable income for Cheline.
Requirement B:
There is an exception if the award is for tangible property and a long-years of accomplishment. At that time, the taxpayers will be excluded from some part of the necessary amounts to be paid as tax. If it is not a qualified award, the exclusion will be $400. If it is qualified, the tax exclusion is 1,600. Since Jon received a gold watch for 25 years of service and the gift is not qualified, he has to pay tax for $(660 - 400) = $240.
is a person who benefits from something without expending effort or paying for it.
The way economists would probably explain the wastage of
this clam resource is by saying that clams are free goods and are therefore
subject to the tragedy of the commons effect. The tragedy of the commons effect
is a theory in economics, postulated by the Victorian economist William Forster
Lloyd.
The tragedy of the commons effect describes a condition
within a shared-resource system where each user act freely according to their
own self-interest, but their collective actions ends in the depletion or spoilage
of that resource, thus having a negative impact on the common good of all users.
In this case, commons is taken to refer to the clam resources.

Answer:
242.65
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
year 2011 2012 2013
Salary $65,000 $72,000 $76,000
Consumer Price Index 226 230 235
Real Interest Rate 2.5% 2.7% 1.8%
Nominal interest rate for 2013 = 7.3%
Now,
Rate of inflation for 2013 = Nominal rate - Real rate
= 7.3% - 1.8%
= 5.5%
Therefore,
CPI in 2013 = Consumer Price Index in 2012 × (1 + inflation )
= 230 × ( 1 + 0.055 )
= 242.65
