Answer:
$34,000
Explanation:
Because the SUV weighs over 6,000 pounds, it is not subject to the statutory dollar limits on luxury automobiles.
Under section 179 expensing (limited to $25,000 for SUVs)
= $25,000
Regular MACRS:
= [($70,000 - $25,000) × 0.20}]
= 9,000
Ariff's maximum deduction for 2019 would be:
= $25,000 + $9,000
= $34,000
Answer:
The real exchange rate would result in a growth of the relative price of Chinese TVs over the price of Russian Vodka.
This is because Chinese TVs are becoming more technologically advanced, increasing both their nominal and real value, while Russian Vodka is being produced en masse, but without technological progress, decreasing both its nominal and real value.
The nominal exchange rate would result in the ruble depreciating strongly against the Yuan.
The quick growth of money supply in Russia means inflation, and this added to the loss of value of the Vodka exports, results in the decrease of nominal value for the ruble against the Yuan, which has a moderate growth in money supply (meaning moderate inflation), and benefits from the exports of a good that is appreciating (the Chinese TVs).

Answer:
a. in order to calculate this we must assume that the economy entered a recession:
degree of operating leverage = [($20 - $70)/$70] / [($260 - $520)/$520] = -0.7143 / -0.5 = 1.43
b. $14 million

Answer:
D) make mutual investments in specialized assets.
Explanation:
I'm not sure about the exact background of the question, but if you are trying to build a trust relationship with another company, the best way to do it is by investing together.
E.g. if company A is interested in securing an important supplier, instead of trying to acquire it, they might try to invest together in some assets or another business. That way, when it comes to deciding which company should receive discounts or prioritize their requirements, the supplier will always favor their business partners.
