8) Carolina Shores rents vacation homes in NC’s Outer Banks and rents out vacation homes for homeowners. They have 2 different fees that they charge to homeowners.
If the house is on a paved road in town, the commission to the homeowner is 12%.
If the house is in the “four-wheel-drive section” (further away and only accessible by driving on the beach with a 4 wheel drive vehicle) the commission to the homeowner is 16%.
Is this price discrimination? Write a paragraph explaining fully.

"Tax Implications"
Claim of right doctrine - judicial doctrine that states that income has been realized if a taxpayer receives income and there are no restrictions on the taxpayer's use of the income (for example, the taxpayer does not have an obligation to repay the amount).
Constructive receipt doctrine - the judicial doctrine that provides that a taxpayer must recognize income when it is actually or constructively received. Constructive receipt is deemed to have occurred if the income has been credited to the taxpayer's account or if the income is unconditionally available to the taxpayer, the taxpayer is aware of the income's availability, and there are no restrictions on the taxpayer's control.
What are some examples of each of these doctrines?

(c) Put the findings into meaningful words (i.e., explain what the test allows you to conclude about the types of mutual funds). (d) Does your result from (b) give you statistical permission to probe group differences, yes or no? (4 points)
