C. a budget variance.

One of the benefits of holding an investment for over a year rather than selling it in less than a year is
that the

B. fees will not be charged by brokers for selling the investment.
C. money earned on the investment will be considered tax-free.
D. profits on the investment can be averaged over the length of time the investment is held.
Correct Answer A
Reason Capital gains are profits made from the sale of capital assets such as stocks and bonds and are

term capital gains and are taxed at a lower tax rate or in some cases are not taxed at all.
A person complains about how expensive it is to be a cigarette smoker. One of the reasons cigarettes
are so expensive is that
A. the tobacco supply is controlled by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
B. the tobacco industry imports most of the tobacco.
C. their cost is controlled by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
D. the government imposes an excise tax on them.
Correct Answer D
Reason The government may impose a tax on specific goods and services such as alcohol, cigarettes,
gasoline, and airline services, which are called excise taxes. These taxes produce revenue for the
government and are usually placed on items not considered necessities. Often, as in the case of
alcohol and cigarettes, these taxes are also levied as away to try to deter certain behaviors. As a
result, these taxes have become known as 'sin taxes.'
