Answer:

When a company sells different securities together (this usually happens during mergers and acquisitions):

  1. and the price of all the securities is not certain, the incremental method will first allocate proceeds to the sale of securities whose price is actually certain. The remaining proceeds will be allocated to the securities whose price is uncertain. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth ? million were sold. The company will allocate $5 million to stocks and $5 million to bonds.
  2. and the price of all the securities is certain, the proportional method allocates the sales proceeds proportionally among the different securities sold. E.g. total sales $10 million, stocks worth $5 million were sold and bonds worth $3 million were sold. The company will allocate ($5/$8) x $10 million = $6.25 million to stocks and $3.75 to bonds.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Tariff of 1832

Explanation:

The Tariff of 1832 was enacted to replace the 1828 import tariffs commonly known as Tariffs of Abomination. Most southern states did not like it, but its greatest opposition came from South Carolina since its economy depended greatly in foreign trade. Back then America's largest export was cotton produced by southern states.

Due to South Carolina's extreme opposition, it was replaced by the Compromise Tariff of 1833. This last tariff would gradually decrease the tax rates until they fell back to 1816 levels, which was approximately 20%.

The Nullification Crisis refers to a legal process carried out in South Carolina that determined that federal taxes, specifically import tariffs were unconstitutional and shouldn't apply to them. The problem is that the Supreme Court decides what is unconstitutional or not, not a state court.
