Answer:

Tom paid $23.54 while his cousin spent $18.72. Tom spent more on tax $.082 more than his cousin.

Explanation:

Tom

Cost of shirt = $22

Sales tax = 7%

Total amount paid = 22 + (7% × 22)

                               = 22 + 1.54

                               = $23.54

Tom's cousin

Cost of shirt = $18

Sales tax = 4%

Total amount paid = 18 + (4% × 18)

                               = 18 + 0.72

                               = $18.72

Tom spent more on tax as he spent $1.54 as against his cousin's $0.72.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

=2.98%

Explanation:

Use CAPM to find the required return of the stock;

CAPM: r = risk free + beta(market return - risk free)

risk free = 4.5% or 0.045 as a decimal

beta = -0.4

market return = 8.3% or 0.083 as a decimal

Next, plug in the numbers into the CAPM formula;

r = 0.045 -0.4(0.083 - 0.045)

r = 0.045 -0.0152

r = 0.0298 or 2.98%

Therefore the required return is 2.98%

Darla owns a dress shop called Darla's Darling Dresses. During the past year, Darla sold some assets to upgrade her facility. Sh
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Darla's amount realized on the sale is $800

Adjusted basis in the assets sold is $300

Producing a realized gain on the sale of $500

Explanation:

Amount realized = cash received + FMV of other property + buyer’s assumption of seller’s liabilities – seller’s expenses

Amount realized = 600 + 200 + 0 -0

= $800

Adjusted basis = initial basis – cost recovery deductions

Adjusted basis = 2500-2200 = $300

Gain or loss realized = amount realized – adjusted basis = 800-300

= $500

Therefore Darla's amount realized on the sale is $800 and the adjusted basis in the assets sold is $300, producing a realized gain on the sale of $500
