Unfortunately for the previous owner, he had purchased it three years earlier at a price of $1,610,000. What was his annual rate of return on this painting?

In 2022, Rainer disposed of some crypto he had held for several years. He is not entirely sure of his basis in the coins. How can he best determine the original purchase price in order to minimize the tax impact of the sale? An estimate is fine. As long as Rainer knows roughly what the coins were selling for the month he made the purchase, he can use that as a range. The coin exchange Rainer uses is responsible for providing that information, so he can contact them and find the original purchase price. If he doesn't have the original records, he cannot recreate them. Rainer must use a $0 basis. Rainer can use a blockchain explorer to determine the date and time of his purchase and the fair market value (FMV) of the coins at that time.

Last year, Jose and Josefina Munoz bought a home with a dwelling replacement value of $250,000 and insured it (via an HO-5 policy) for $225,000. The policy reimburses actual cash value and has a $500 deductible, standard limits for coverage C items, and no scheduled property. Recently, burglars broke into the house and stole a new computer with a current replacement value of $1,500 and an estimated useful life of three years. They also took jewelry valued at $2,500 and a coin collection valued at $1,500. If the Munozs’ policy has a 90 percent co-insurance clause, do they have enough insurance? Assuming a 50 percent coverage C limit, calculate how much the Munoz family would receive if they filed a claim for the stolen items. What advice would you give the Munoz family about their homeowner’s coverage?
Tyrell Corp. is considering replacing a machine. The old one is currently being depreciated at $70,000 per year (straight-line), and is scheduled to end in five years with no remaining book value. If you don’t replace it, you will be lucky to get it removed for the amount you could salvage it for, so you don’t expect any profit in five years. If you replace the old machine now, you believe you can salvage it for $375,000 and buy a new machine for $850,000, plus $25,000 shipping fee and another $25,000 for installation. The new machine will not change the revenue or NOWC, but it will reduce the operating costs of the company by $145,000 per year. The new machine will be depreciated using the three-year MACRS schedule (the table is provided on the Moodle for your convenience). The useful life of this machine is five years, and it is expected that the machine can be sold at $20,000 at the end of the five years. Assume a tax rate of 25% and the cost of capital for the company is 8%.…
Ivy Gordon's home in Charleston was recently gutted in a fire. Her living and dining rooms were destroyed completely, and the damaged personal property had a replacement price of $36,000. The average age of the damaged personal property was 5 years, and its useful life was estimated to be 13 years. What is the maximum amount the insurance company would pay Ivy, assuming that it reimburses losses on an actual cash-value basis and has a $500 deductible? Assume that the total coverage requirement is met. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the answer to the nearest cent.
