Answer:

  • Tax status = Ordinary Asset
  • Gain = $60,000

Explanation:

As the company expensed the asset fully in the year of purchase instead of capitalizing it, the asset is an ordinary asset not a capital one which is capitalized. That is the tax status.

The gain on an ordinary asset is the amount that it was sold for which in this case is $60,000.

Tax status = Ordinary Asset

Gain = $60,000

Artemon [7]

Answer:

a. Private Property Rights

b. Political Stability and Rule of Law

c. Open and Competitive Market

d. Private Property Rights

Explanation:

a. By defining private property Rights and giving people a chance to own resources, Individuals will strive to own more and more of such rights and so will produce as much as they can so as to afford such rights.

b. When a nation is Politically stable and respects the Rule of Law, investment payoffs are easier to predict than in a country where instability can threaten to degrade investments such that the payoffs will be lost. For example, think of all the Western firms that lost money when the Shah of Iran was overthrown by the Ayatollah.

c. Specialization is more likely to occur in nations with Open and Competitive Market. An Open Market means that goods can come in from the outside easily. This will have the effect of the country being able to import goods that cost a lot to produce locally and instead focus on producing those goods that they are well adept at producing. This is Specialization. Also as a result of competition, companies will strive to find better ways to make profit above competitors and come up with more efficient ways of Production as a result.

d. The Xiaogang Agreement refers to an agreement by farmers in Xiaogang to subdivide their lands in secret so that they would each own a small part of it. As a result, the farmers had an incentive to produce for themselves as they now owned resources that they could benefit from. This right to Private Property led to a huge boom in Agriculture.

If a market is in equilibrium is it necessarily true that all potential buyers and sellers are satisfied with the market​ price?
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The correct answer is "no"

Explanation:

A market equilibrium occurs in those markets where consumer demand is equal to the amount offered by companies. But they don't necessarily have to be satisfied with the market price.

For example, if a product of basic need is in high demand, the price can be raised a lot which may not result in a fair price for the customer.

On the contrary, a low price on products puts potential competitors out of the market since many times due to production costs they cannot match these prices.
