Answer:
- Melba's adjusted basis for the land at the Acquisition date is $625000
- Melba's adjusted basis for the land one year later is $645000
Explanation:
The adjusted basis for a property/land is the net cost of the property after adjusting for factors that might attract tax as related to the land
The adjusted basis for the land at the acquisition date is the net cost of the land at the acquisition date which will be ( $225000 + $400000 ) because that was the net cost of the Land at the date of acquisition before an agreement was later reached by Melba requiring him to pay $400000 plus an interest of 5%
Hence the adjusted basis for the land one year later will be
= ( $225000 + $400000 ) + 5% of $400000
= ( $625000 ) + $20000
= $645000

Solution:
Pick some smart number for x,
let x=2 (I chose x=2 as in this case monthly shipments would be X/2=1).
From January to April, inclusive 4x=8 brooms were produced and
in May the company paid for storage of 8-1 =7 brooms,
in next month for storage of 6 and so on.
So the total storage cost would be:
= 1 ∗ (7+6+5+4+3+2+1+0)
= 28
--> as x=2 , then 28 = 14x
So the answer is 14x
Answer:
Stock Y is overvalued and Stock Z is undervalued.
Explanation:
The stock is fairly valued when the required rate of return on the stock is equal to its expected return. If the expected return on the stock is more than the required rate of return, the stock is undervalued and vice versa.
The required rate of return on the stock is calculated under the CAPM approach suing the following formula.
r = rRF + Beta * rpM
Where,
- rRf is the risk free rate
- rpM is the risk premium on market
r of Stock Y = 0.052 + 1.3 * 0.077 = 0.1521 or 15.21%
The required rate of return of Stock Y (15.21%) is more than its expected rate (14.9%) which means the stock is overvalued.
r of Stock Z = 0.052 + 0.95 * 0.077 = 0.12515 or 12.515%
The required rate of return of Stock Z (12.515%) is less than its expected rate (12.8%) which means the stock is undervalued.
