The country of Lessidinia has a tax system identical to that of the United States. Suppose someone in Lessidinia bought a parcel

of land for 20,000 foci (the local currency) in 1960 when the price index equaled 100. In 2002, the person sold the land for 100,000 foci, and the price index equaled 600. The tax rate on nominal gains was 20 percent. Compute the taxes on the nominal gain and the change in the real value of the land in terms of 2002 prices to find the after-tax real rate of capital gain.

Answer: -30%

Explanation:

The Nominal gain is:

= 100,000 - 20,000

= 80,000 foci

Tax on nominal gain:

= 20% * 80,000

= 16,000 foci

After tax nominal value of land:

= 100,000  - 16,000

= 84,000 foci

The real value given the price index is:

= 84,000 / 600 * 100

= 14,000 foci

After tax real rate of cap. gain:

= (14,000 - 20,000) / 20,000

= -30%

azamat

<u>Solution and explanation:</u>

<u>Given data: </u>

Ask price: 98.4062, bid price: 98.2812, par value of the bond: $10,000

<u>The following formula is used in order to calculate the actual value of the bond </u>

The ask price will be used while calculating the actual value of the bond and the par value of the bond will be used

Ask price will be multiplied with par value of the bond and divided by 100

98.4062(10000) / 100= $9840.62

Therefore, the par value as per the above calculation is $9840.62

Deffense [45]

Answer:

Dr Allowances for sales returns     $600

Cr Sales refund payable                             $600

Being increase sales refund estimate

Explanation:

The sales refund account is liability account that should naturally have a credit balance.

In the current period the balance in the sales refund payable account should be $900 in total,but there is a balancing credit amount already in the account,intuitively, the amount needed to raise the balance in the account to $900 is $600.

The necessary entries required for the sales refund payable is shown below:

Dr Allowances for sales returns     $600

Cr Sales refund payable                             $600

Being increase sales refund estimate

There is no adjusting entry to accounts receivable as that deals with receipt  of cash from sales transactions and not the actual sales transactions.

When the refund is eventually settled with cash, a debit is posted to sales refund payable and a credit to cash account
