Answer: 2.72%

Explanation:

An annuity is a series of payments that is made at equal intervals. Examples are monthly home mortgage payments, regular deposits to a savings account, pension payments.

Number of payment period (NPER) = 12 years

Payment per period (PMT) = $15000

Amount needed, PV = $156000

The formula for an annuity is calculated as:

P = PMT x ((1 – (1 / (1 + r) ^ -n)) / r)

= Rate(12,15000,-156000,1)

Rate = 2.72%

Oscar owns a building that is destroyed in a hurricane. His adjusted basis in the building before the hurricane is $130,000. His
Alinara [238K]

Answer: $132,000

Explanation:

Oscar's new basis on the building will be the basis of the old building plus any additional investment he added.

This is the because there is no gain on the $140,000 he received because it was an Involuntary Conversion amount and he reinvested it into another building within a period of 2 years.

As there is no gain, the building will retain it's original basis but will add any amount outside the involuntary replacement cost of the building.

The Additional basis will be,

= Cost of building - Insurance

= 142,000 - 140,000

= $2,000

The Basis for the new building is,

= 130,000 + 2,000

= $132,000

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

increase by $15,600

Explanation:

Fixed cost remains constant throughout a period. If production is through the use of idle capacity, fixed cost will not change.

Change is income will result from the total contribution margin realized from the special order.

The total contribution margin is the contribution margin per unit multiplied by total units.

Contribution margin per unit = special offer price - variable costs

=$23.40- $18.20

=$5.20

change in income will be $5.20 x 3000

=$15,600 increase
