Consider a household consisting of four college friends. The friends have made a commitment to live together for the next five y

ears. Presently they live in Milwaukee where Abby will earn $200,000, Bonnie will earn $120,000, Cathy will earn $315,000, and Donna will earn $150,000 over the next five years. They have the option of moving to Miami. Moving to Miami would impose a one-time moving cost of $5,000 on each person. If they move to Miami, however, Abby will earn $180,000, Bonnie will earn $150,000, Cathy will earn $300,000, and Donna will earn $100,000 over the next five years. Moreover, each friend prefers to live in Miami over Milwaukee. In particular, Abby and Bonnie both value the quality of life in Miami versus Milwaukee over the next five years at $40,000 while Cathy and Donna place the value at $25,000 each. Should the household move to Miami or stay in Milwaukee? Is anyone a tied-mover or a tied stayer?

Answer:

Explanation:

Omaha Miami

Earnings Earnings Value of Quality Life Expense to Move to Miami Net Value Difference in Value

Alex 200000 180000 40000 5000 215000 15000

Bobby 120000 150000 40000 5000 185000 65000

Cory 315000 300000 25000 5000 320000 5000

Dana 150000 100000 25000 5000 120000 -30000

Tied mover – any person who moves with their partner even if the person's employment is better at the present location.

Assuming all the friends agree on moving to Miami, Dana will compromise in value, therefore, Dana is the Tied Mover.

Tied Stayer – any of them who stays with the partner at current location even if the person's employment opportunity is better somewhere else.

Assuming all the friends decided to be in Omaha, Alex, Bobby and Cory will compromise in value, therefore, Alex, Bobby and Cory are the Tied Stayers.

Carey, a single taxpayer, purchased a rental house in 2018, which he actively manages. During 2018, Carey had a loss of $14,000
noname [10]

Answer:

$6,000

Explanation:

First, Carey's allowable deductions repersents 'real estate loss allowance. The real estate loss allowance is an allowance or tax reduction made available to taxpayers who are also owners of rental properties in the U.S.

The specific allowance states that if the adjusted gross income of the owner of the rental property  is $100,000 or less, then the taxpayer is allowed a deduction of $25,000. However, this begins to reduce as the adjusted gross income approaches $150,000 and the allowance is completely eliminated when the income exceeds $150,000

Based on this explanation, Carey's Adjusted Gross Income= $138,000, higher than $100,000 but less than $150,000

The calculation= 50% ($150,000- maximum allowable adjusted gross income- $138,000 - Carey's reported adjusted gross income)

=0.50 ($12,000)

= $6,000

First National Bank (FNB) has a reserve ratio of 20 percent, a required reserve ratio of 10 percent, and deposits of $1,000. If
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is then it has required reserves of $110 and holds excess reserves of $190.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows:

Total deposit = $1,000 + $100 = $1,100

So, we can calculate the total reserve required by using following formula:

Total reserve required = 10% × Total deposit

= 10% × $1,100 = $110

And Previous excess = $100

Current access = $90

So, Excess reserve =  Previous excess +  Current access

= $100 + $90

= $190

The five dollar Burger Joint gift card that your friend gave you for your birthday expires today. You can either use the gift ca
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

B) The value of the ingredients that go into the home-cooked meal and the value of a five-dollar dinner at Burger Joint .

Explanation:

Opportunity costs can be defined as the cost for choosing one alternative investment or action over another.

If you choose to use the five dollar gift card, you are going to eat for free, although you might not enjoy that meal as much as your delicious home made dinner.

But if you choose to eat a delicious meal at home, you are going to lose the five dollars of the give card and will have to spend a certain amount of money in making the dinner. Those same ingredients could be used to prepare dinner tomorrow. That is your opportunity cost of eating at home.

Ivanshal [37]

Options:

I because these securities are not registered with the SEC, such an offering would be illegal in the United States

II because the securities are not registered with the SEC, they can only be resold in the public markets if the company effects a registered primary distribution and is current in its SEC filings

III public resale of these securities can only occur if the customer holds the securities for 6 months "at risk" and then sells the securities in measured quantities

IV these securities can only be resold by the customer to underwriters that will buy the securities into their inventory and then register them with the SEC

Answer:

II because the securities are not registered with the SEC, they can only be resold in the public markets if the company effects a registered primary distribution and is current in its SEC filings

III public resale of these securities can only occur if the customer holds the securities for 6 months "at risk" and then sells the securities in measured quantities

Explanation:

Option I is wrong because this type of operations is completely legal, and they are called private placements.

Option IV is also wrong because the underwriters do not register the stocks with the SEC, the company must be public in order for it to be registered  and their stocks publicly traded.

Option II is correct because you can privately resell the stocks, but the market is very limited.

Option III is correct because if the company does turn public, then the investor must hold the stocks for 6 months "at risk" (no puts purchased) before being able to sell them on public markets.
