Stanley Inc. must purchase $6,000,000 worth of service equipment and is weighing the merits of leasing the equipment or purchasi
ng. The company has a zero tax rate due to tax loss carry-forwards, and is considering a 5-year, bank loan to finance the equipment. The loan has an interest rate of 10% and would be amortized over 5 years, with 5 end-of-year payments. Stanley can also lease the equipment for 5 end-of-year payments of $1,790,000 each. How much larger or smaller is the bank loan payment than the lease payment? (Hint: remember back to our bond pricing concepts and calculate the payment of the bond vs. the lease payment; loan payment - lease payment )
The first of two significant fiscal policy initiatives enacted by the government during the great recession, signed in February 2008 by President George w. bush was the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008.
During recessions, governments can adopt expansionary fiscal policies by lowering tax rates to boost aggregate demand and boost economic growth. In the face of rising inflation or other signs of economic expansion, governments can pursue contractionary fiscal policies.
Governments can use fiscal policy (increased government spending and tax cuts) to stimulate the economy during recessions. A fiscal multiplier is an estimate of the increase in output caused by a particular increase in government spending or tax cuts.

Based on the information given the tax treatment of the redemption to Marcie will be $38,000 dividend reason been that her husband shares was been attributed to her, and Since she owns 60 shares her remaining 10 shares including that of her husband 50 shares of Chestnut's will be 110 shares calculated as 150 shares - 40 shares outstanding.
Therefore when we look at this 60 shares/110 shares is greater than 50% which means that Marcie fails the 50% test which makes the redemption to be treated as a dividend.
Hence, the tax treatment of the basis of the shares redeemed will be $38,000 Dividend.
