  Capital - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In South Africa, for example, the administrative capital is Pretoria, the legislative capital is Cape Town, and the judicial capital is Bloemfontein, the outcome of the compromise that created the Union of South Africa in 1910.
Unlike medieval capitals, which were declared wherever a monarch held his or her court, the selection, relocation, founding or capture of a modern capital city is an emotional affair.
A symbolic relocation of a capital city to a geographically or demographically peripheral location may be for either economic or strategic reasons (sometimes known as a "forward capital" or spearhead capital).

 Capital Punishment
Opponents of capital punishment who accuse the government of committing murder by implementing the death penalty fail to see the irony of using Exodus 20 to define murder but ignoring Exodus 21, which specifically teaches that government is to punish the murderer.
Capital punishment is to be implemented because of the sanctity of human life.
Capital punishment is taught in both the Old Testament and the New Testament.

 Tax Analysts: Economic Perspective: 96 TNT 186-79 (Copyright, 1996, Tax Analysts)
For example, owners of old capital might delay this tax by foregoing consumption temporarily -- that is, by reinvesting this capital and the returns on it.
Add together the $250 billion from taxing old physical capital and the $1 trillion from taxing "old" human capital, and the total tax collections are well in excess of what is raised by the federal corporate and individual income taxes today.
Therefore, while zapping old capital is thought by some to be a conservative argument for eliminating taxes on capital, it is simultaneously an argument for raising or maintaining higher tax rates.

 Tax Analysts: Economic Perspective: 96 TNT 176-72 (Copyright, 1996, Tax Analysts)
The tax essentially attached itself to old capital when the corporate tax was first assessed, even if the cash payment to the government was deferred until later.
Old capital in the corporate sector is essentially "zapped" in a way that purportedly leaves unaffected new investment decisions.
Rates of return to shareholders will be the same for corporate and noncorporate capital mainly because the corporate capital has declined in value relative to its replacement value or its value in the noncorporate sector.

 Action plan to breathe new life into old city
A NEW three-year action plan, with incentives for bringing life back into the old capital near the Green Line, will be put into action and a study has been completed on ways to revive the two sides of the old Nicosia, Interior Minister Andreas Christou said this week.
The Nicosia Mayor spoke of the importance of the old capital, which he referred to as " the heart of Nicosia but also the heart of Cyprus" and thanked the Minister for his interest in efforts to revive Nicosia within the walls.
Zampelas said the plan to revive the old capital is the "New Vision" a UN-funded project, for which Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots have jointly been working for a year.

From a practical viewpoint, the distinction between withdrawals and drawings may be important because allowable drawings are not usually deducted in determining the amount of partnership capital to be used for purposes of dividing profits among the partners.
For example, if a new partner’s investment reflects the fact that land owned by the old partnership is undervalued, it would be misleading to record the amount of revaluation as goodwill, rather than as a revaluation of the land account.
If a new partner receives a capital credit in excess of his or her investment, the excess is a bonus to the new partner.

 Partnership Investing
When a new partner buys her interest from the old partners (doesn't invest into the partnership but makes payment directly to the old partners), the implied goodwill is determined by considering the amount the new partner is paying.
So if the total value is $120,000 and the old capital of $60,000 plus the new investment of $50,000 only total to $110,000, the difference between the $120,000 and the $110,000 equals goodwill of $10,000.
So if the total value is $100,000 and the old capital of $40,000 plus the new investment of $50,000 only total to $90,000, the difference between the $100,000 and the $90,000 equals goodwill of $10,000.

However, heritage protection experts suggest that ongoing renovation projects in old areas should be urgently halted and real estate developer-dominated renovation methods should be rethought.

With the booming real estate industry in China, the demolition of old houses and construction of new projects have been speeded up over the last three years.

 Real Estate Adviser: Old capital gains issues
As for the capital gains issue, I think you are confusing elements of pre-1997 tax law with revisions.

Hence, the two of you are apparently due exemptions on $500,000 of your hearty capital gain, providing you have owned and used the home as your principal residence for a combined period of at least two years prior to its sale.
