Answer:

Hamlet

Hamlet can recognize a loss of $1,500 in 2020.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of shares in Vanity Corporation = 1,000 common stock

Period of stockholding = 2 years

Cost of investment = $4,000

Sales proceeds from shares = $2,500

Capital loss = $1,500

b) Hamlet can use the capital loss deduction of $1,500 to reduce his other capital gains of the similar term in the first instance.  Note that the capital loss is a long-term capital loss since the investment was held for two years.

a bacteria population starts with 200 bacteriaa and grows at a rate of r(t) = (450.268)e 1.12567t bacteria per hour. How many ba
Virty [35]

Answer:

11,513

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Initial bacteria = 200

Growth rate r(t) = (450.268)e^{1.12567t}

Now,

Total growth after 3 hours = \int\limits^3_0 {(450.268)e^{1.12567t}} \, dt

or

Total growth after 3 hours = 450.268\int\limits^3_0 {e^{1.12567t}} \, dt

or

Total growth after 3 hours =450.268[\frac{e^{1.12567t}}{1.12567}]^3_0

[ ∵ \int{d(e^x)}{dt}=\frac{e^x}{\frac{dx}{dt}}]

Thus,

Total growth after 3 hours = 400 × [{e^{1.12567t}]^3_0

or

Total growth after 3 hours = 400 × [{e^{1.12567(3)}-e^{1.12567(0)}]

or

Total growth after 3 hours ≈ 11313

Hence,

Total bacteria after 3 hours = Initial bacteria + Total growth after 3 hours

= 200 + 11313

= 11,513

Calculation of the amount that Platen should record the purchase.

Using this formula

List price -(Percentage of payment term × list price)

Let plug in the formula

$5,900 -(4%×5,900 )

=$5,900-$236

=$5,664

Therefore Platen should record the purchase on August 17 as a:
