Answer: Country A $1,600

Explanation:

Country A's currency is stronger than Country B's which is why Country B needs more of its currency to buy a single unit of Currency A.

You can use direct proportion to find out Country B's GDP in Country A dollars

Country B currency to Country A

1.5       :   1

2,400 :   x

1.5x = 2,400

x = 2,400 / 1.5

= Country A $1,600

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

$4,200

Explanation:

Cost of equipment = $52,000

Life of equipment = 3 years

Depreciation through straight line method = 52,000/3 = $17,333

Tax rate = 33%

Pretax cost of debt = 10%

Lease amount of equipment = $18,500

After tax cost of debt = 10%*(1-0.33)

After tax cost of debt = 10%*(0.67)

After tax cost of debt = 0.067

After tax cost of debt = 6.7%

After tax lease payment amount = 18,500*(1-0.33)

After tax lease payment amount = 18,500*0.67

After tax lease payment amount = 12,395

Present Value of 3 lease payment = 12,395/(1+0.067) + 12,395/(1+0.067)^2 + 12,395/(1+0.067)^3

Present Value of 3 lease payment = 12395/1.067 + 12395/1.1385 + 12395/1.2148

Present Value of 3 lease payment = 11616.68 + 10887.13 + 10203.33

Present Value of 3 lease payment = $32,707.14

Present Value of cost involved in purchasing the equipment is $52,000, however there will be a tax shield from depreciation therefore, this amount would reduce the company's cost.

Annual depreciation tax shield = 17,333*0.33 = $5719.89. There will be tax shield on depreciation for 3 years. Therefore, present value of $5719.89 is calculated for three years:

= $5719.89/(1+0.067) + $5719.89/(1+0.067)^2 + $5719.89/(1+0.067)^3

= $5719.89/1.067 + $5719.89/1.1385 + $5719.89/1.2148

= $5360.72 + $5024.06 + $4708.50

= $15,093.28

Present Value of the cost of buying the equipment = $52,000 - $15,093.28 = $36,906.72

Net Advantage Leasing = Present Value of the cost of buying the equipment - Present Value of 3 lease payment

Net Advantage Leasing = $36,906.72 - $32,707.14

Net Advantage Leasing = $4,199.58

Net Advantage Leasing = $4,200.

"Tariffs and other trade restrictions increase the domestic scarcity of products from abroad. Such policies benefit domestic pro
iris [78.8K]

Answer: is correct

Explanation: Tariff refers to the tax imposed on import and export activities. These are a type of trade restrictions that are made to regulate the domestic market of the country.

The tariff imposed on export will increase the price of the exported goods in the domestic market. Thus a majority population in the country will not purchase it and the domestic producers will benefit from this situation. In such a case, the domestic producers will make unreasonable profits from domestic consumers.

Marilyn is age 66, if she receives a $15,000 taxable HSA distribution this year, what tax penalty, if any, will apply?
Arada [10]

Answer:

No penalty

Explanation:

The tax penalty is as follows

The HSA i.e. health saving account. It is opened so that the expenses related to the medical could be paid and the high health plan i.e. deductible  (HDHP) would not covered here

In the case when rules are not followed so there is a penalty of 20%

Given that the amount taxable is $15,000

So here the penalty would be

= $15,000 × 20%

= $3,000

But since Marilyn age is 66 so there is no penalty as the penalty would be applied till the age of 65

Neutrino Industries stock trades at $49 per share and there are 120 million shares outstanding. The management would like to rai
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Neutrino Industries must sell <u>8.68 million shares</u> to raise $400 million.

Explanation:

To calculate this, let B represents the number of shares Neutrino Industries must sell. Therefore, we have:

Gross proceeds = $49 * B, or $49B

Underwriter charges = 6% * $49B = $2.94B

To raise $400 million, we deduct the underwriter charges from gross proceeds and solve for B as follows:

$49B – $2.94B = $400,000,000

$46.06B = 400,000,000

B = 400,000,000 / 46.06

B = 8,684,324.79 shares, or 8.68 million shares.

Therefore, Neutrino Industries must sell <u>8.68 million shares</u> to raise $400 million.
