Answer:

The aftertax salvage value of the equipment is $302,964

Explanation:

In order to calculate the aftertax salvage value of the equipment, first we would need to calculate the Book value of the equipment after 4 years as follows:

Book value of the equipment after 4 years = Purchase price *(1-depreciation rate each year)

= $2,000,000*(1-0.2-0.32-0.192-0.1152)

=$345,600

Loss on sale = $281,000-345,600

= 64600

Tax benefit on loss = $64,600*34% = $21,964

Therefore, After tax salvage value = selling price + tax benefit

= $281,000 + $21,964

=$302,964

The aftertax salvage value of the equipment is $302,964

Answer:

$302964

Explanation:

The salvage value of an asset is the value of the asset ater it has being used during its useful life.

The depreciation percentage each year is 20.00 percent (0.2), 32.00 percent (0.32), 19.20 percent (0.192), 11.52 percent (0.1152), and 11.52 percent (0.1152).

Since the project being evaluated is a four year project, we would use onlh the depreciation for four years.

The salvage value = cost of equipment(100% - depreciation percentage for four years)

salvage value = $2000000(1 - 0.2 - 0.32 - 0.192 - 0.1152) = $345600

Book value = $281000

Gain = salvage value - book value = $345600 - $281000 = $64600

aftertax salvage value = book value + (tax rate × gain) = $281000 + (0.34 ×$64600) = $302964

What does it mean that in a free market that buyers compete against other buyers for goods and services and that sellers compete
mina [271]
That is economics. Also known as 'Supply and Demand'.It means that the buyers are competing against each other like if one person wants the new Lamborghini and another also wants it, but there is only one in stock, they will have to compete not by fighting but by business, same with the sellers. If there is this new hat and a lot of sellers have it, the sellers will have to compete to sell the hats at the best price, but also earn a profit. Who ever has the best price will attract the buyers.

(P.S. A free market is a market in which the Government does not get involved between the buyer and the seller. That is called Capitalism. In some countries, the Government puts the price. So the Government is getting involved. That is called Communism:)

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Semi-strong form efficiency.

Explanation:

Semi-strong form efficiency contends that security prices have factored in publicly-available market and that price changes to new equilibrium levels are reflections of that information. It is considered the most practical of all Efficient Market Hypothesis(EMH) hypotheses but is unable to explain the context for material nonpublic information (MNPI). It concludes that neither fundamental nor technical analysis can be used to achieve superior gains and suggests that only MNPI would benefit investors seeking to earn above average returns on investments.
