Answer:

6.97%

Explanation:

the formula to be used is

The formula for calculating future value:

FV = P (1 + r)^n

FV = Future value

P = Present value

R = interest rate

N = number of years

$4,100.00 = $3,350.00 x ( 1 + r)^3

divide both sides of the equation by $3,350.00

$4,100.00 / $3,350.00 = ( 1 + r)^3

1.223881 = ( 1 + r)^3

find the cube root of both sides

1.069661 = 1 + r

r = 6.97%

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

As for calculating the gain or loss on distribution of any asset, in any case the company shall consider the fair market value at the time of distribution, and accordingly, the gain or loss shall be:

Fair market value - Tax basis of such asset.

Here, in the given instance

Fair market value of land = $200,000

Tax basis of land = $50,000

Thus, gain on distribution = $200,000 - $50,000 = $150,000

This will not be different in any case, whether the earnings are positive or negative.

Therefore, the statement is True

If in the past Congress had taken additional actions to make saving more rewarding, then today it is likely that the equilibrium

posledela

Answer:

Explanation:

In this question, we are looking at what would be the later effect of the Congress taking steps to make sure that there is an increase in the amount of returns on savings for example, say the amount of interest rate on saved money is increased.

What will happen in this case is that the equilibrium interest rate would be lower while the equilibrium quantity of loanable funds will be higher. What he meant by the equilibrium interest rate is that it is the interest rate at which the amount of money demanded is equal to the amount of money supplied.

Due to the legislation by congress, it is expected that more money would be supplied in terms of bank deposits as people would want to make a higher profit off the legislation. The effect of this is that the equilibrium interest rate will be lower as its balance would have been upset my the availability of more deposits and less demand.

We also say that the equilibrium level of loanable funds will be higher. This is because there would be more money present in the vaults of the bank as savings have been encouraged and people are expected to fill the bank with more money. This thus means the bank has more money to throw around via loans as there is an increase in the amount of savings. This surely would drive up the equilibrium quantity of loanable funds
