Answer:

D) $150,000

Explanation:

Insurance proceeds that are not reinvested in replacing damaged property are taxed. Apparently Prime corporation didn't reinvest into replacing the property, so this transaction should be taxed as a property sale. Prime received $400,000 for the building with a $350,000 basis which results in a net gain = $50,000.

The other $100,000 were given as replacement income and therefore should be taxed as such.

So the total taxable amount = $50,000 + $100,000 = $150,000

Last year, Company X paid out a total of $1,050,000 in salaries to its 21 employees. If no employee earned a salary that is more
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$42,000

Explanation:

Let L be the lowest possible salary;

the maximum salary would be (L x 20%) + L = 1.2L

If we want to determine the minimum value for L, we need to assume that everyone else earns the maximum salary: 20 employees earn 1.2L each

L + 20(1.2L) = 1050000

L + 24L = 1050000

25L = 1050000

L = 42000

Suppose the production function in medieval Europe is Y 5 K 0.5L0.5, where K is the amount of land and L is the amount of labor.
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

a) Y = 500

b) Wages: 2.5

   Rental price: 2.5

   

c) labor Share of output: 0.370511713 = 37.05%

Explanation:

Y = 4K^{0.5} \times L^{0.5}

if K = 100 and L = 100

Y = 5(100)^{0.5} \times (100)^{0.5}

Y = 50 \times 10

Y = 500

wages: marginal product of labor = value of an extra unit of labor

dY/dL (slope of the income function considering K constant while L variable)

ax^b = bax^{b-1}

Y = 5K^{0.5} \times L^{0.5}

Y' = 5K^{0.5} \times 0.5 L^{-0.5}

Y' = 2.5K^{0.5} \times L^{-0.5}

Y' = 2.5(\frac{K}{L})^{0.5}

With K = 100 and L = 100

Y' = 2.5(\frac{(100)}{(100)})^{0.5}

Y' = 2.5

rental: marginal product of land = value of an extra unit of land

dY/dK (slope of the income function considering K variable while L constant)

Y = 5K^{0.5} \times L^{0.5}

Y' = 2.5K^{-0.5} \times L^{0.5}

Y' = 2.5(\frac{L}{K})^{0.5}

L = 100 K = 100

Y' = 2.5(\frac{100}{100})^{0.5}

Y' = 2.5

c) we use logarithmic properties:

Y = 50 \times 10

log500 = log(50 \times 10)

log500 = log50 + log10

50 was the land while 10 the labor

2.698970004 = 1.698970004 + 1

share of output to labor: 1/2.698970004  = 0.370511713
