Assignment Three

Your text has defined a method to calculate GDP as C+I+G+(X-M)

Go to the US Department of Commerce's Bureau of Economic Analysis website located at http://www.bea.gov/index.htm. Click on the National GDP for the latest release for data. Use the information provided in the article to identify what the percentage change has been for any three of the variables (C,I,G,X, or M) used to calculate GDP. This assignment is designed for you to figure out how to navigate the website and match the definitions of C, I, G, X and M with data collected by the government. Be sure to provide citations to identify the exact latest release you used. Without this citation, I will not know what release to review when grading your assignment.

Sarah, Nicloe and Chance are each 1/3 owners of a company. The company initially was formed as an S Corp but was doing so well that Sarah and Nicole wanted to take the company public. Suppose Chance is a U.S. resident but a French citizen. His mother has recently been diagnosed with a terminal illness, and Chance has decided to move back to France to take care of his mother and her affairs. He anticipates that he will live in France for several years and that he will no longer be considered a U.S. resident. If you were Sarah and Nicole how would you react to Chance's decision to move? Would you ignore the impact that it may have on the S Corporation status? Would you pressure Chance to sell his stock to you?
