Answer: $150,000
Explanation:
The Dividend Received Deduction is a Federal tax deduction that applies when a related company pays dividends to another company that owns part of it.
The relevant provision is that when a company owns more than 80% of the company receiving the Dividend, the Dividend Received Deduction amounts to 100% of dividends received.
Cooper Corporation may therefore claim a deduction of $150,000 being the total amount as they own 85% of Broze Corporation Stock.
Answer:
3.33%
Explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Real per capita GDP in South Korea in 1957 = $400
per capita GDP in South Korea in 1978 = $800
Total number of years taken to double the GDP = 21 years
Now,
Using the Rule of 70, which states that
Number of years to double the GDP = 70 ÷ (average annual economic growth rate )
thus,
21 years = 70 ÷ average annual economic growth rate
or
Average annual economic growth rate = 3.33%
Answer:
C. A country can specialize in producing that for which it has a comparative advantage and then trade for other needed goods and services.
Explanation:
<em>Comparative advantage</em> is simply evaluating the opportunity cost of other benefits or costs, if the country is opting to choose for a specific category of goods for production purposes.
For example, let's say US can produce 20 Television (TV) sets and 50 Air Conditioners in a month. Here, the opportunity cost of producing 1 TV set is 50/20 i.e. 2.5 Air Conditioners. Similarly, the opportunity cost of producing 1 Air Conditioner (AC) is 20/50 i.e. 0.4 TV set. Hence, US should produce Air Conditioners over TV sets as per <em>Comparative Advantage</em> concept.
Take another example, let's say UK can produce 50 Television (TV) sets and 20 Air Conditioners in a month. Hence, the opportunity cost of producing 1 TV set is 20/50 i.e. 0.4 Air Conditioner. On the other hand, the opportunity cost of producing 1 AC is 50/20 i.e. 2.5 TV sets. Thus, UK should produce TV sets over AC's as per <em>Comparative Advantage </em>model.
Hence, US should export AC's to UK and import TV sets from UK to gain from specialization and trade.
<em> In this way nations can gain from specialization and trade by making use of Comparative Advantage theory</em>.
It is to be noted that <em>Absolute Advantage model </em>of Adam Smith is also good as it highlights production of that good by a country, which it can produce in large quantities with fewer resources and minimal time than any other nation in the world. But the <em>Comparative Advantage Model </em>developed by David Ricardo considers opportunity cost and is much more refined than Absolute Advantage Model.
