Explanation:
Let’s explore one by one as proposed:
An oil cartel raises oil prices: all prices in the oil-related products will increase making it more expensive for companies to be able to afford employees. As the US economy is heavily based on oil import and consumption, the unemployment rate (let´s call it UR from now on) would increase. Countries that export more than import could benefit from this scenario.
The U.S. dollar gains value against foreign currencies: It would be more expensive to produce goods in the US as its currency becomes stronger. Hence companies could choose to produce overseas, increasing the UR. One of the factors that attract investments is a cheap currency, meaning that a company could operate there at lower costs than anywhere else.
American consumers expect higher income in the future: As fights about average salary would arise between employees and companies, igniting even sindicalization, its proper to think that the same as above could occur; companies could choose to produce overseas in countries less demanding of labor rights and income, such as China provinces (I would recommend for you to watch American Factory, a awarded Netflix documentary about that subject).
Brazil experiences economic growth and increases its demand for U.S. exports: as I said in the first alternative, a country that has increased or more expensive exports could benefit from that creating more jobs, in this case decreasing the UR. If Brazil demands more US products, more has to be produced by the country, which would mean more people employed in this attractive sector.
U.S. real estate values rise: to be honest, it only affects indirectly. As housing becomes more expensive, people have to work more to be able to afford housing. That would mean they seeking better-paying jobs or in the absence of those being homeless of at least unable to buy a home. We could argue that the UR would decrease because it becomes more expensive to afford housing and hence people would migrate more but that’s a long shot rationale.

Answer:
The Jerry's adjusted basis in his partnership interest at the end of the year is $45,500
Explanation:
The adjusted basis of Jerry in his partnership is shown below:
= Partnership interest - Ordinary loss + long term capital gain + dividend - non deductible expense + cash contribution - share reduction
= $50,000 -$15,000 + $3,000 + $2,000 - $500 + $10,000 -$4,000
= $45,500
The ordinary loss, share reduction, and non deductible expense would decrease the Jerry interest in partnership firm while all other cost would increase his interest. That's why the amount is added and subtracted.
Hence, the Jerry's adjusted basis in his partnership interest at the end of the year is $45,500
The loss on the disposal of the car is $-16,200.
The first step is to determine the total depreciation on the car.
Depreciation expense = percentage depreciation x cost of the asset
$37,000 x 0.1 = $3700
The second step is to determine the book value of the car = cost of the car - depreciation
$37,000 - $3700 = $33,300.
The book value is greater than the selling price of the car, so there was a loss on the sale. The third step is to determine the gain on the sale.
Loss = $17,100 - $33,300 = $-16,200
