Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

a. AB and YX are both general partners.

AB's basis in the partnership's interests = $527,000 + ($263,500/2) = $658,750

YZ's basis in the partnership's interests = $457,000 + ($263,500/2) = $588,750

Each partner share 50% interest in the recourse debt.

b. AB is a general partner, and YZ is a limited partner.

AB's basis in the partnership's interests = $527,000 + $263,500 = $790,500

YZ's basis in the partnership's interests = $457,000

If the current exchange rate is 1 euro to 1.5 U.S dollars, according to the theory of purchasing power parity, a haircut that co

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer: (1) 10 euros (2) 15dollars

Explanation:

S= P1 /P2

where:

S= Exchange rate of currency 1 to currency 2

P1 = Cost of good X in currency 1

P2 = Cost of good X in currency 2

(1) s = 1.5, P1 = 15 dollars, P2 = ???

so,

1.5 = 15 / P2

P2 = 15/1.5 = 10 euros

Hence, according to the theory of purchasing power parity,

The price of a haircut that cost 15 dollars in Dallas will be 10 euros in Paris.

(2) S = P1/P2

taking 1 euro to 1.5dollars exchange,

1.5 = P1/P2 but P2 = 10 euros

hence P1 = 1.5 x 10 = 15 dollars.

Hence, according to the theory of purchasing power parity,

A wheel of French cheese that costs 20 euros in Paris should cost 15dollars in Dallas

Should imports to the United States be curtailed by, say 20 percent to eliminate our trade deficit? What might happen if this we

hjlf

In a world that is synchronized on a global scale, trade between nations is constant. Imports cannot be reduced by 20% in order to close the trade deficit.

<h3>Why it is not possible to reduce imports?</h3>

There are certain nations that will be impacted if the United States decides to cut imports by 20%.

As a result, imports from the United States will likewise be restricted in other nations.

In other words, the United States may experience a fall in exports while attempting to reduce imports. The overall impact on trade imbalances could be minimal.

The trade conflict between the United States and China is a good illustration. China responded to the United States taxes on its imports by imposing its own levies. As a result, both countries suffered.

As a result, there is no quick fix for decreasing trade deficits. A more delicate balance between consumption and production must be achieved over time.

The manufacturing industries must have favorable policies and incentives to encourage consumer demand for locally made items.
