Answer:

The correct answer is option e.

Explanation:

Scholarships may or may not be taxable. Scholarships are generally tax-free when they are used to pay for tuition, books and other necessary equipment.  

Here, Nicole is getting a scholarship of $52,000 for the year 2018.

She is spending $40,000 on tuition, $5,000 for books and $7,000 for room and board.  

The total expenses are  

=$(40,000+5,000)

=$45,000

So, out of $52,000 non taxable amount is $45,000.

Nicole will be taxed for $7,000 and will be exempted from tax for $45,000.

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

b. surpluses of the commodity will develop

Explanation:

A price ceiling is when the government or an agency of the government sets the maximum price for a good or service.

If price ceiling is set above equilibrium price, suppliers would increase supply while consumers would reduce demand. This would lead to an excess supply and surplus in the economy.

When price ceiling is set above equilibrium price, it is known as a non binding price ceiling.

A benchmark market value index is comprised of three stocks. Yesterday the three stocks were priced at $30, $38, and $90. The nu
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The one-day rate of return on the index is 3.43%

Explanation:

Given that the shares were priced at;

$30    for    710,000 shares

$38    for    610,000 shares

$90    for    310,000 shares

Changes in prices of shares

$34-$30=4

$36-$38= -2

$92-$90=2

Return=change in price of shares/initial price of shares *100

The return will be;

4/30*100 =13.33

-2/38*100= -5.26

2/90*100 = 2.22

Total = 13.33+2.22 - 5.26 =10.29

10.29/3 =3.43

Gertrude takes out a $5,500 subsidized Stafford loan, which must be paid back in ten years. Gertrude will graduate four years af
Sergio [31]

$2,095.30 interest will she pay by the time the loan is repaid

Solution:

The $5,500 guaranteed Stafford loan is taken from Gertrude.

The loan has a monthly compounding interest rate of 6.8 percent.

Price current= $5,500.

Present Value = $5,500

Time period = 10 years

So , N = 10 x 12 = 120 months.

Interest rate, R = 6.8/1200 = 0.005666667

PV = Pmt * [1 - (1+R)^(-N)]/(R)

5500 = Pmt * [1 - (1+0.005666667)^(-120)]/(0.005666667)

Pmt = $63.29418157

She got full refund. = 63.29418157 x 120 = $7,595.30

Interest paid = Total repayment - Loan Principal

                      = $7,595.30 - $5,500

                      = $2,095.30

Jeff deposits $3,000 into an account which pays 5 percent interest, compounded annually. At the same time, Kurt deposits $3,000
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Kurt will have a smaller account value than Jeff will

Explanation:

The formula for calculating future value = A (B / r)

B = [(1 + r)^n] - 1

Jeff : $3000 x [(1.05^3 - 1 ) / 0.05] = $9457.50

Kurt :$3000 x [(1.03^3 - 1 ) / 0.03] = $9272.70

Jeff would have a higher account value than Kurt
