Answer:

$500 short-term capital gain

Explanation:

Henrietta's gain = selling price - stock's basis = $13,500 - $13,000 = $500

Since Henrietta received the stocks on June 1, 2015, and sold them on January 1, 2016, only 7 months had passed, therefore, this transaction would be considered a short term capital gain.

When a gift is sold (in this case the stocks), a taxpayer can use the basis for computing gains. If the stocks were sold at a loss, Henrietta should use the lower value (at the moment of the gift) to determine her loss.

Alborosie

Answer:

$200,000

Explanation:

We can define before tax cash flow (BTCF) as the amount of money gotten by an investment after receiving all of the revenues and payment of all bills, but without removing any other noncash items or depreciation, and before any calculation of income tax consequences is been done.

To calculate the Before-tax cash flow if there are no capital improvement expenditures or reversion items this period, simply calculate it by doing this

= PBTCF – DS

= $1,000,000 - $800,000

= $2,00,000.

Alona [7]

Answer:

Arbitrage

Explanation:

Arbitrage occurs when the same good sells for different prices at different market. This price difference allows market participants to earn riskless profit .

In this case, the generator is more expensive in South Carolina when compared with other places. Thus, in order to earn riskless profit, people would buy where it is cheaper and sell at South Carolina where it is more expensive.

Economic theory suggest that if this kind of buying continues, soon the prices would be the same in both markets .

ikadub [295]

Answer:

$130 Favourable

Explanation:

Given the above information,

Standard hours = 2 × 4770 = 9,540

Actual hours = 8,940

Standard rate = $32.50

Then, Direct labor efficiency variance is computed as

= ( Standard hours allowed for production - Actual hours taken) × Standard rate per direct labor hour

= [(2 × 4,770) - 8,940] × $32.50

= [9,540 - 8,940] × $32.50

= 600 × $32.50

= $130 Favourable
