Ben hired Lewis to drive his car in a race. Tuan, a friend of Lewis, promised to pay Lewis $3,000 if he won the race. Lewis won

the race, but Tuan refused to pay the $3,000. Tuan contended that no legally binding contract had been formed because he had received no consideration from Lewis for his promise to pay the $3,000. Lewis sued Tuan for breach of contract, arguing that winning the race was the consideration given in exchange for Tuan’s promise to pay the $3,000. What rule of law discussed in this chapter supports Tuan’s claim? Explain.

Answer:

Consideration contract.

Explanation:

Consideration is basically the fact that Lewis never offered something in consideration to Tuan for his offer to pay the $3,000, this means that both parties need to have a benefit from the agreement and both should have a detriment, if only one party has a benefit that is considered a gift, and the law can´t force someone to gift something. This is why Tuan claim is correct and he isn´t forced to pay the $3,000 to Lewis.

(problem 13). margo's marginal utility of one dance lesson is 100 utils per lesson. her marginal utility of a new pair of dance
kirill115 [55]

Since Margo purchase her optimal consumption bundle, the marginal utility per dollar consumed on dance lessons must be equivalent to the marginal utility per dollar paid on dance shoes. The marginal utility per dollar spent on dance lessons is 100 utils per lesson, where $50 per lesson is equivalent to 2 utils per dollar. The marginal utility per dollar expended on dance shoes therefore has to equal 2 utils per dollar. Since the marginal utility of a pair of dance shoes cost 300 utils per pair, the value of a pair of shoes should be $150 per pair, so that 300 utils per pair/$150 per pair is equal to: 2 utils per dollar.

The amount of income tax that he withholds is $36.70 + 12% of excess over $509

\$ 36.70+12 \%(\$ 613.40-\$ 509)=\$ 36.70+12 \% \text { of } \$ 104.40=\$ 36.70+\$ 12.53=\$ 49.23

The amount to withhold for Federal income tax is $49.23.

2) <u>Carson Leno, married and 4 allowances </u>

The wages falls under the category of Over $444 but under $1,177.

The amount of income tax that he withholds is $0 + 10% of excess over $444.

\$ 0+10 \%(\$ 571.80-\$ 444)=\$ 0+10 \% \text { of } \$ 127.20=\$ 0+\$ 12.72=\$ 12.72

The amount to withhold for Federal income tax is $12.72

The amount of income tax to withhold is $36.70 + 12% of excess over $509

\$ 36.70+12 \%(\$ 700-\$ 509)=\$ 36.70+12 \% \text { of } \$ 191 .=\$ 36.70+\$ 22.92=\$ 59.62

The amount to withhold for Federal income tax is $59.62.

$2,500 - $155.80 = $2,348.20

The amount of income tax to withhold is $171.34 + 22 % of excess of $1,631 \begin{aligned}&\$ 171.34+22 \%(\$ 2348.20-\$ 1631)=\$ 171.34+22 \% \text { of } \$ 717.20 .=\$ 174.34+\$ 157.78=\\&\$ 332.12\end{aligned}The amount for Federal income tax is $332.12

5) Mollie Parmer. Married, 2 allowances and wages is $3,600

\$ 3,600-\$ 155.80-\$ 155.80=\$ 3,288.40

The amount of income tax to withhold is $\$ 73.30+12 \%$ of excess over $\$ 1,177$ \begin{aligned}&\$ 73.30+12 \% \text { of }(\$ 3,288.40-\$ 1,177) .=\$ 73.30+12 \% \text { of } \$ 2,111.40 .=\$ 73.30+\$ 253.37=\\&\$ 326.67\end{aligned}The amount for Federal income tax is $326.67.

In a new margin account, a customer buys 300 shares of ABC at $40 per share, 100 shares of the Ajax Mutual Fund at $24, and 10 P
never [62]

Answer: 12400

Explanation:

It should be noted that 50% of the stick value will be paid by the customer and also 100% of the mutual fund shares value will also be paid because they are nonmarginable securities.

Therefore, 50% of $12,000 = $6,000

Total payment required will now be:

= $12,400.
