Answer:

solution below

Explanation:

(gain - loss)x35%

for megan

(5500 - 2242) * 35%

= $1140.3 is owed

a.) for megan

(5500-2100)*35%

= $1190

b. for margaret

(4000-2000) x 35%

=$700

c. For melissa,

It doesnt matter if she took this withdrawal at 65 years of age.

d. for morgan

110 - 100 = 10 this is the gain per share

total gain = 10 x 100 = 1000

income tax = 1000 x 0.35 = 350 dollars

e. for murphy,

his income tax would fall by

4000 x35% = 1400.

After this, selling the stock would have no effect on current taxes.

Mekhanik [1.2K]
Option 1: PV = $400,000
Option 2: Receive (FV) $432,000 in one year

PV = FV(1/(1+i)^n), where i= 8% = 0.08, n = 1 year

PV = 432,000(1/(1+0.08)^1) = $400,000

Option 3: Receive (A) $40,000 each year fro 20 years

PV= A{[1-(1+i)^-n]/i} where, n = 20 years

PV = 40,000{[1-(1+0.08)^-20]/0.08} = $392,725.90

Option 4: Receive (A) $36,000 each year from 30 years
PV = 36,000{[1-(1+0.08)^-30]/0.08} = $405,280.20

On the basis of present value computations above, option 4 is the best option for Kerry Blales. This option has the highest present value of $405,280.20
