Answer:
Explanation:
It means that there must be a huge number of people that have little or nothing.
The most recent estimate of America's population is 331,000,000 roughly
1% of the population is 331,000,000 * 1/100 = 3,310,000
So that means that 3 million people own 33% of 14 trillion in property alone. These numbers are really hard to imagine.
1 trillion has 12 zeros behind it
so 14 trillion has 12 zeros behind it.
3 million people own 1,400.000,000 = 14 000 000 000 000 dollars worth of property.
That means that each person in that group of 3 million is 1 of 14 , 000, 000 in wealth just in property alone. The goods will dilute this somewhat, but I think you get the idea.
3 million people in the United States are multimillionaires, if they own 100% of the property. Of course that isn't true, but I think it's fair to say that they are not poor either.
Answer: $19,687 million
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Microsoft Corp. reported a statutory tax rate of 35% and an effective tax rate of approximately 15% and that the 2016 income statement reported income tax expense of $2,953 million.
The amount reported by Microsoft as income before income tax expense that year will be calculated as:
= 2,953 million / 15%
= $19,686.67 million
= $19,687 million
Answer:
$850,000
Explanation:
Cramer's tax basis in its partnership interest can be estimated as follows:
Cramer's cash contribution to the general partnership = $500,000
Cramer's share of the recourse debt borrowed = $700,000 / 2 = $350,000
Cramer's tax basis in its partnership interest = Cramer's cash contribution + Cramer's share of the recourse debt = $500,000 + $350,000 = $850,000
Note:
The reecourse debt is shared equally as coventionally required when the profit and loss sharing is not stated in the question.
Answer:
The correct answer is 7,020 units.
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the computation of the given data are as follows:
Fixed cost = $117,000
Selling price = $51
Variable cost = $26
Pretax income to earn = 50% of fixed cost
So, Pretax income = 50% × $117,000 = $58,500
So, we can calculate the units required by using following formula:
Units required = (Total fixed costs + Pretax income) ÷ (Selling price - variable cost)
= ($117,000 + $58,500) ÷ ( $51 - $26)
= 7,020 units.
