Scenario:

Mike and Carol Gold's 12-year-old daughter Rebecca was abducted on her way home from school on May 15, 2016. Police reports indicated that a stranger had physically dragged Rebecca into a waiting car and sped away. Everyone hoped that the kidnapper and Rebecca would be located quickly. However, as of the end of the year, Rebecca was still missing. The police were still pursuing several promising leads and had every reason to believe that Rebecca was still alive. In 2017, Rebecca was returned safely to her parents. Are the Golds allowed to claim an exemption deduction for Rebecca in 2016 even though she only lived in the Gold's home for four-and-one-half months?

Requirements: Using RIA Checkpoint, research the answer to the question. Use key word search and only the Internal Revenue Code to find your answer.

Write a less sophisticated client letter to the Golds. Keep your letter to 1 page.

On the second page, include the key word(s) used in your search and provide the exact citation for the Internal Revenue Code where you found your answer.

For example, §101 is not a sufficient citation. But, §101(b)(2) would be.

Hansus Enterprises is a start-up small business specializing in software systems for machine-based high-school student tutoring in science and math. Sheryl Hansus, the owner, has spoken with lenders to obtain a loan of $50,000 now (year 0), and the same amount in years 3 and 6. Two different repayment schedules are available. They are: Schedule A: Pay a uniform amount of $19,500 in years 3 through 12. Schedule B: Pay a uniform amount of $20,000 in years 1 through 6, with “balloon” payments of an additional $20,000 in year 2 and a final amount of $40,000 in year 7. To assist in the decision of which schedule to select, determine the following: (a) Total amount repaid for each schedule. Which is smaller? (b) The equivalent annual worth of the loan amounts and of the repayments at i = 5% per year over a 12-year evaluation period. Which schedule has the smaller loss per year? Why is this the case?

Aaron expects demand for the service to grow rapidly in the first two years of operation as customers learn about the availability of the Internet assistance. Thereafter, he expects demand to stabilize. The following table presents the expected cash flows:

year of operation cash inflow cash outflow
2019 $14400 $9000
2020 19700 11300

He also expects to pay $3,200 for a major overhaul and updating of the equipment at the end of the second year of operation. The equipment is expected to have a $1,600 salvage value and a four year useful life. Aaron desires to earn a rate of return of 8 percent. (PV of $1 and PVA of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

Required

A) Calculate the net present value of the investment opportunity. (Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. Round intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places.

B) Indicate whether the investment opportunity is expected to earn a return that is above or below the desired rate of return and whether it should be accepted.

(PYTHON)Your company prints math reference tables for high school and first year college students. You’d like to write a flexible program that will display the results for several mathematical functions applied to a range of integers, and the results displayed in a table with a header that includes labels separated by tabs:

Num Sqr SqRt Sin Cos Tan Log Log10

=== === ==== === === === === =====

Write a Python program that prompts the user for a starting integer, ending integer and interval (step) value. Based on these entries, and using functions from the Python math library, calculate and display each integer (x) along with the values for: x​2, sin x, cos x, tan x, log(x) and log10x .

Organize your file using comments for each block of planned code

Import the math library and initialize any necessary variables

Prompt the user for the starting, ending and interval values (integers)

Print the table headers

Create a loop based on the user’s values

Print the formatted values with 2 decimal places

There are four (4) parts to this program: 1. Import math library and initialize any necessary variables 2. Prompt the user for starting, ending and interval values 3. Create a for loop based on the values 4. Print each value and the calculated results as specified

Using the IDLE Python editor, enter the following comments in your Python program identifying each part. Make sure to leave blank spaces between each comment section.
# Initialize any necessary variables
# Prompt the user for the starting, ending and interval values
# Create a for loop based on the values
# Print each value and the calculated results as specified

Some hints and guidelines: • For the sin, cos and tan calculations, assume the user is providing values in degrees • The Python math library functions for sin, cos and tan expect a value in radians • Use the starting, ending and interval values to define your for loop • Round the results of the math calculations to 2 decimal places if necessary
