Jay sold three items of business equipment for a total of $300,000. None of the equipment was appraised to determine its value.

Jay's cost and adjusted basis for the assets are as follows: Col1 Asset Skidder Driller Platform Total Col2 Cost $230,000 120,000 620,000 $970,000 Col3 Adjusted Basis $40,000 60,000 0 $100,000 Jay has been unable to establish the fair market values of the three assets. All he can determine is that combined they were worth $300,000 to the buyer in this arm’s length transaction.How would Jay allocate the sale price and figure the gain or loss on the sale of the three assets?

Answer:

Consider the following calculations

Explanation:

Step 1. Given information.

Asset        Cost        Adjusted Basis

--------------------------------------------------

Skidder   230,000      40,000

Driller       120,000      60,000  

Platform  620,000        0

-------------------------------------------------

Total         970,000      100,000

Step 2. Formulas needed to solve the exercise.

Allocation for each asset =  value sold * (adjusted basis / total)

Gain on sale = Sales price - Adjusted basis amount

Step 3. Calculation and Step 4. Solution.

Sales price is allocated on the basis of adjusted value.

  • Skidder = 300.000 * 40.000/100.000 = 120.000

  • Driller = 300.000*60.000/100.000 = 180.000

  • Platform = 300.000*0/100.000 = 0

Gain on sale = Sales price - Adjusted basis amount

                        = 300.000 - (40.000 + 60.000 + 0)

                        = 200.000

Answer:

A) (20-(x-10)) (x-6) = -x^2 +36x-180

B)In order to maximize the weekly profit the feeder price should be $80 and the weekly profit will be $144

Explanation

A)Let's consider they priced each feeder dollar x then the gain (price minus cost) of each feeder is (x-6). With the price of Dollar 10 they can sell 20 per week.

For every dollar increase in price they will lose two sales so total sale is

(10-(x-10)) .By multiplying the number of sales of feeder with profit of each feeder sold we get total revenue y i.e.

Y=(x-6)(20-(x-10))

=(x-6) (30-x)

= -x^2+36x-180

B) compare above equation with quadratic equation we get;

a=-1 , b=36 , c= -180

A quadratic function has minimum or maximum at point -b/2a ,so revenue is increased for feeder price.

x= b/2a = 36/2(-1) = $18

AND

Maximum weekly profit is

Y(18) = (18-6) (30-18)

=$144

s344n2d4d5 [400]

The marginal propensity to save is 0.2. equilibrium gdp will decrease by $50 billion if the aggregate expenditures schedule decreases by:$10 billion.

<h3>Aggregate expenditures schedule</h3>

Using this formula

Aggregate expenditures schedule=Marginal propensity to save×Equilibrium gdp

Where:

Marginal propensity to save=0.2

Equilibrium gdp=$50 billion

Let plug in the formula

Aggregate expenditures schedule=0.2×$50 billion

Aggregate expenditures schedule=$10 billion

Therefore the marginal propensity to save is 0.2. equilibrium gdp will decrease by $50 billion if the aggregate expenditures schedule decreases by:$10 billion.
