Complete Question:

Jon is a cash-basis taxpayer and has adjusted gross income of $40,000 in 2018. During the year he incurred and paid the following medical expenses.

Drugs and medicines prescribed by doctors $300

Health insurance premiums $750

Doctors' fees $2,250

Eyeglasses $75

How much medical expense can he deduct as itemized deduction?

Answer:

Jon

Medical expense that Jon can deduct as itemized deduction:

= $375

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Adjusted gross income = $40,000

Incurred medical expenses:

Drugs and medicines prescribed by doctors $300

Health insurance premiums $750

Doctors' fees $2,250

Eyeglasses $75

Total  = $3,375

Under Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), the medical expenses which can be deducted as an itemized deduction on the federal income tax return are only to the extent that they exceed 7.5% of adjusted gross income (AGI).

7.5% of $40,000 = $3,000

Therefore, Jon can itemize deduction of $375 in medical expense.

Suppose the U.S. economy is initially at long run equilibrium, when there is an unexpected large increase in the price of steel
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The price hike in the price of steel would cause an inflationary push in the U.S. economy, because steel is a input to the production processes of many firms.

In this scenario, the fed would lower the money supply in order to stop the inflationary push from continuing. To do so, the fed would sell government securities.

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

A. Factors associated with market risk.

Explanation:

Inflation, recession, and high-interest rates are economic events that all investors need to be aware of. Diversification can lower these risks, but does not eliminate them. They generally are beyond the control of investors, but they should always be considered by security analysis, portfolio managers, and stockbrokers. They are not irrelevant in any way, shape, or form. Everything done with stocks, bonds, and mutual funds should be coordinated based on inflation, recessions, and high interest rates.
