Answer:

10 years and 10 months.

Explanation:

Provided information we have,

Amount invested = $2,500

Earning interest rate = 3.4% annually

Compounded semiannually

Thus, period to be considered = 2 in a year

Interest rate = 3.4 \times \frac{6}{12} = 1.7

Thus, effective interest rate = 1.7%

Now, according to future value of compounded rate @ 1.7% at a period 65 factor = 2.9913

Thus value will be $2,500 \times 2.9913 = 7,478.25

That is approximate triple in value.

Thus, total period in number of years = 65/6 months = 10.833 years.

0.833 \times 12 months = 10 months

That exactly means 10 years and 10 months.

Rex and Sandy are partners. Rex has a capital balance of and Sandy has a capital balance of . Marcus contributes a building with
Furkat [3]

Answer:

25.29%

Explanation:

the numbers are missing, so I looked for a similar question:

  • Rex's capital balance = $370,000
  • Sandy's capital balance =  $280,000
  • Marcus contributed a building worth = $220,000

the partnership's total capital = $370,000 + $280,000 + $220,000 = $870,000

Marcus's share in the partnership = value of building / partnership's total capital = $220,000 / $870,000 = 25.29%

You and two friends own a small limousine service. You have incorporated and exist as a close corporation, with the three of you
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

As a director of the company, Elijah is also an agent of the company. As such , he is dutybound to exercise reasonable care in all transactions entered by him on behalf of the company. In the instant case, it is obvious that he has failed to exercise the degree of care and skill expected of a person of ordinary prudence. If someone makes an offer to sell cars at an unbelievely low price, two doubts should crop up in the mind of any rational person : Are the merchandise of offer stolen property? Or are they fective merchandise?

But, Elijah did not bother to go to the site of the seller to physically inspect the cars. He closes the contract on the basis of a telephone call.

In the given case, the cars are not usable. Maybe they can be used after sunstantial repairs. But that too indicates that the annual maintenance cost for the cars is going to be much higher than the normal cars. Both these factors are going to adversely impact the profitability of the company.

Another relevant fact is that Elijah should have consulted with the other directors of the company in this case before entering the contract on behalf of the company, specially since Micheal the seller of the cars happens to be Elijah's friend, and there could have been a conflict of interest.

Given the above circumstances, the following steps can be taken against Elijah by the company:

a. Since Elijah, as the company's agent has failed to apply reasonable care and skill in the conduct of the affairs of the principal, the company can repudiate the contract with Michel, which would render Elijah personally liable for the debt contracted.

a. Terminate Elijah's contract with the company.

b. Resist Elijah's claims on salaries and compensation for loss of office.

c. File a suit against Elijah for restitution of the sum paid for the defective cars.

d. File a suit against Elijah for damages, if it can be proved that he was to make any secret profits from the transaction.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

When tax season comes, he hires an accountant from one of "the Big Four" accounting firms to help him file his business's tax return. In this scenario, John has most likely hired a <u>Tax</u> Accountant

Explanation:

A Tax Accountant helps the individual or businesses that hire them fill out their tax forms properly, advise them about future financial moves that can affect their taxes and file taxes with the appropriate documentation electronically so that your clients receive their refunds as quickly as possible.

They can work as a direct employee or as an independent contractor who runs their own business.

They take charge of tax preparation and help your clients to lower their tax obligations when filing tax returns.

If an individual is audited, they handle this audit for them to ensure that the individual gets through the process unharmed.
