Answer:

A. maximum employment and stable prices

Explanation:

The Fed receives economic data from other government agencies that help it determine the appropriate cause of action. For example, if the bureau of labor statistics reports a high level of unemployment, it could mean the economy is slowing down. The Fed then applies expansionary policies to stimulate growth.

A company purchased a delivery van for $23,000 with a salvage value of $3,000 on September 1, 2008. It has an estimated useful l

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

The value to depreciate is always the total asset value minus the salvage value. In this case, $23,000-$3000=$20,000. The straight line method formula is:

Depreciation = value to depreciate/useful years

Depreciation (year) = $20,000/5= $4,000

This formula calculates de depreciation expense each year from the purchase date, which means that on septemeber 1 of 2009 the company will register a depreciation expense of $4,000. But, from september 1,2008 to December 31, 2008 is less than a year we have to calculate the depreciation for each month.

Depreciation (month)= $4,000/12= $333,33

But since that depreciation would be for december 1, we need to calculate the depreciation for each day

Depreciation (day) = $333,33/31 = $10,75

From september 1 to december 1: 3 months, then $333,333 x 3= $1000

And from december 1 to december 31: 30 days, then $10,75 x 30= $322, 58

The depreciation expense on December 31 is: $1000+$322,= $1322,58 that is almost $1,333. On January 1 the depreciation expense would be $1,333.

An investor purchased 100 shares of stock X at \small 6\frac{1}{8} dollars per share and sold them all a year later at 24 dollar

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

option (C) 280%

Explanation:

Number of shares of stock X purchased = 100

Purchasing cost of share = $\$6\frac{1}{8} =\frac{49}{8}$

Selling cost of stocks = $24 per share

Brokerage paid = 2%

Now,

The total purchasing cost involved = $100\times\frac{49}{8}$ + 2% of $100\times\frac{49}{8}$

= 612.5 + 0.02 × 612.5

= $624.75

also,

Total income from sales of stocks

= Total selling cost of shares - brokerage paid

= $24 × 100 - 2% of Total selling cost

= $2400 - ( 0.02 × $2400 )

= $2400 - $48

= $2,352

now,

The investor's percent gain on this investment = $\frac{\textup{Income-invested amount}}{\textup{Invested amount}}\times100\%$

= $\frac{\textup{2,352 - 624.75}}{\textup{624.75}}\times100\%$

= $\frac{\textup{1727.25}}{\textup{624.75}}\times100\%$

= 276.47% ≈ 280%

Hence, the correct answer is option (C) 280%
