Sara owns 160 acres of farmland worth $800,000. She inherited the land from her father 30 years ago when it was worth $200,000.

Her married son would like to buy the land, but has limited funds. He proposes buying the land on a contract for deed, paying $50,000 down and the balance over 20 years at 4% interest. Assume that if Sara sold the land for cash, her tax rate on the gain would be 23.8%, but if she sold it on a contract her rate would be 15% on the gain and 28% on the interest income on each payment. Advise Sara on how much tax she would have to pay under each option (selling for cash or on the contract, also assume Sara could earn 4% interest if she sold for cash and invested the money)

Answer:

Check the following calculations

Explanation:

Sara with selling option

Selling Price = 800000

acquisition cost = 200000

Capital gain =  600000

  • Intersest earned on 800000 @ 4% for 20 Years = 800000 * CVF @ 4% 20 Years

800000* 1.464 = 1171200 - 800000 = 371200

  • Tax on interest Income = 371200 * 28% = 103936

  • Tax on capital Gain = 600000*23.8% = 142800

  • Total Tax on selling of land = 103936 + 142800 = 246736

  • On the contract

Capital gain = 600000

Intersest earned on [email protected]% for 20 Years = 750000 * [email protected]% 20 Years

750000* 1.464 = 1098000 - 750000 = 348000

  • Tax on interest Income = 348000 * 28% = 97440

  • Tax on capital gain = 600000*15%= 90000

total Tax on contract = 97400+ 90000 = 187440

Saving of tax on contracting = tax on sale - tax on contract = 246736 - 187440 = 59296

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:a.

It would increase by $500,000 multiplied by the reciprocal of the required reserve ratio.

Explanation:

A bank will often hold government securities as an asset. If a bank were to sell S500,000 in government securities to an individual who paid for the bond in cash and the bank placed this cash in its vault, by how much would the money supply change as a result  -  It would increase by $500,000 multiplied by the reciprocal of the required reserve ratio.

The money supply is the entire stock of currency and other liquid instruments circulating in a country's economy and is given by the formula:

MONEY SUPPLY = RESERVES X MONEY MULTIPLIER

Therefore the bank reserves increasing in the scenario will increase money supplier by the effect of the money multiplier or the reciprocal of the required reserve ratio.
