Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

The computation of the taxable gain is shown below:

The corporate gain is

= $40,000 - $20,000

= $20,000

Now the stock basis is increased i.e.

= $20,000 + $20,000

= $40.000

Now the stock basis decreased to zero i.e.

= $40,000 - $40,000

= $0

So, here the taxable gain is of $20,000

Which characteristic does Martin, a marketing manager, demonstrate in the following situation?
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Discrimination

Explanation:

1) diversity --- not diversity

2) discrimination --- possibly discrimination. Discriminating against other groups.

3) inclusiveness --- means to cover many areas, not the case here. He is covering only his area.

4) persecution --- ill treatment based by race, or political beliefs.

I am not considering "men" on his team, because it doesn't apply discrimination. He simply is just biased to his people. Which is a group. However he is not just persecuting someone. Best answer is discrimination.

Presented below is selected information for three regional divisions of Medina Company. Divisions North West South Contribution
lawyer [7]

Answer:

                                                     North     West           South

Contribution margin           $300,300 $499,000 $399,200

Controllable margin            $139,700 $360,600 $209,900

Average operating assets    $997,857 $1,567,826 $1,499,286

Minimum rate of return             13%            14%           9%

return on investment (ROI) = controllable margin / average operating assets

North's ROI = $139,700 / $997,857 = 14%

West's ROI = $360,600 / $1,567,826 = 23%

South's ROI = $209,900 / $1,499,286  = 14%

residual income = controllable margin - (average operating assets x minimum rate of return)

North's RI = $139,700 - ($997,857 x 13%) = $9,978.59

West's RI = $360,600 - ($1,567,826 x 14%) = $141,104.36

South's RI = $209,900 - ($1,499,286  x 9%) = $74,964.26

(1) If ROI is used to measure performance, which division or divisions will probably make the additional investment?

North and South divisions should probably make the additional investments since their current ROI is less than 16%

(2) If residual income is used to measure performance, which division or divisions will probably make the additional investment?

All the divisions since their minimum required rate of return is less than 16%.

Founders should be wary of crowdfunding sites like Kickstarter, because these efforts require founders to give up large ownershi
Westkost [7]

Answer:

B. False

Explanation:

As the name suggests that crowdfunding refers to the funding for a project by having a small amount from the public at large in an internet

Since in the question it is mentioned that the founders should put efforts for giving the high stake of ownership with respect to high contributors before raising the funds to launch a product in the market

But this above requirement should not be necessary

Therefore the given statement is false

Juan buys gas at the gas station. The gas station submits funds for road maintenance. What type of tax is this? (5 points)
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Indirect taxes

Explanation:

Indirect taxes are the taxes levied on transactions as opposed to direct taxes that are imposed on incomes. An indirect tax is added to the prices of goods and services and collected by the seller or retailer. The retailer acts as the tax intermediary and submits the taxes collected to the government.

Examples of Indirect taxes include excise duty tax, value-added tax, and sales tax.  Gas attracts sales tax and road maintenance tax. These taxes increase the price of gas, making them indirect taxes.

Suppose that a firm produces 200,000 units a year and sells them all for $10 each. The explicit costs of production are $1,500,0
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Accounting profit will be $500000

Economic profit will be $200000

Explanation:

We have given number of units produces = 200000

Cost of one unit = $10

So total cost of production = 100000×$10 = $1000000

Explicit cost = $1500000

And implicit cost = $300000

We know that accounting profit = revenue - explicit cost = $1000000-$1500000 = $500000

And economic profit = revenue - implicit cost = $1000000-$300000 = $200000
