Answer:

LTCL = $0

Basis = $3,575

Explanation:

January 15, 2018, buy 1,000 shares at $5,100

December 31, 2020, sold 1,000 shares at $4,550

If Ms. Fresh hadn't repurchased the stock in January, she could have reported a long term capital loss of $550. But since she repurchased the 1,000 shares just after selling them, it is considered a wash sale.

So no long term capital loss will be recognized and the basis of the 1,000 stocks = $3,025 + $550 = $3,575

1. Suppose you owned a portfolio consisting entirely of long-term U.S. government bonds. Would your portfolio be riskless?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

<em>In theory, both are riskless but in practicality they aren't completely risk free.</em>

Explanation:

<em>In investment theory</em>, the investment in government bonds is <em>riskless </em>, irrespective of the investment maturity period because they are backed by the government.

However, <em>in practicality</em> every investment involves risk whether it's a short term or long term. However, a short term investment like the one specified in <em>statement 2</em> involves lower time frame and thereby lower volatility, hence it implies <em>lower risk</em>. The investment specified in <em>statement 1</em> is of longer term and hence can involve higher volatility, hence it implies <em>higher risk.</em>

<em><u>Note</u></em><em>- All the governments are prone to risk practically</em> because they are also part of the global financial and economic system and hence, they have to manage their budget balances prudently. Every investment thereby involves <em>risk</em>, it's just the <em>financial backing</em> of the <em>government financial</em> <em>instruments</em> which makes them less risky as compared to the other financial instruments.

If a monopolist's production process has economies of scale and average cost exceeds marginal cost, then _____.
Mice21 [21]

If a monopolist's production process has economies of scale and average cost exceeds marginal cost, then the government should make the price equal to the marginal cost.

Monopolies are businesses that are dominated by few people in the industry. They have little competition from others and have high barriers to entry.

They can sometimes reduce production to increase the price of their goods and services.

The government can regulate the activities of monopolies by making their price equal to the marginal cost.

✔ You’re going to have a hard time building a network that you can use to support you through this restructuring, but start now to build your network before you need it the next time.

✔ Reach out to people and do as many activities as you can with them. Try to fill your calendar so that you connect with as many people as possible.

✘ Try to fill your network with people who are very similar to you, preferably people who do the same kind of work you do and people who have non-work backgrounds similar to yours. This will make it easier to develop relationships with them.
