Answer:

Gross investment will be equal to $175 billion

Explanation:

We have given nation's capital stock at the start = $200 billion

And capital stock at the end = $350 billion

Consumption of private fixed capital in the year = $25 billion

We have to find the gross investment

Gross investment is equal to

Gross investment =  Capital stock at the end of the year + consumption of private fixed capital - Capital stock at the starting of the year

= $350+$25-$200 = $175

So gross investment will be equal to $175 billion

What are things to consider before opening a business?
artcher [175]
You should consider whether you want it to be a private or public company. A private company means that should the business fall-out, you and your business partners are responsible for the cost of the lawsuit and you will have to pay out of pocket. If your business is public, meaning that people can buy shares of your stock, then you would only have to pay up to the value of the amount of stock that you own. Hope that helps!

Oscar owns a building that is destroyed in a hurricane. His adjusted basis in the building before the hurricane is $130,000. His
Alinara [238K]

Answer: $132,000

Explanation:

Oscar's new basis on the building will be the basis of the old building plus any additional investment he added.

This is the because there is no gain on the $140,000 he received because it was an Involuntary Conversion amount and he reinvested it into another building within a period of 2 years.

As there is no gain, the building will retain it's original basis but will add any amount outside the involuntary replacement cost of the building.

The Additional basis will be,

= Cost of building - Insurance

= 142,000 - 140,000

= $2,000

The Basis for the new building is,

= 130,000 + 2,000

= $132,000

The following information pertains to Pernell Company's pension plan. Beginning PBO: $500,000; current service cost $50,000; dis
monitta

Answer:

= $560,000

Explanation:

Given that:

  • -Beginning PBO: 500,000
  • -Current Service Cost: 50,000
  • -Discount Rate: 6%  => interest cost = 500,000*6% = 30,000
  • -Contributions by Pernell: 40,000
  • -Benefits paid to employees 25,000
  • -Loss on PBO: 5,000

As we know that service cost; gains and losses; payments to retired employees; prior service cost; interest cost; payments to employees are factors that change the balance of the PBO

So the ending balance of the PBO will be:

Beginning PBO + Current Service Cost + Interest cost Loss on PBO -Benefits paid to employees

$500,000 + $50,000+ $30,000+$5,000-$25,000

= $560,000
