As the president of the company, at a time when the prices are said to  be rising, what is would do is to choose the Weighted average cost.

<h3>Why I would have to choose the Weighted average cost</h3>

This due to the fact that it is going to be more satisfactory to have the lower Bonus bill.

The year end bonus is an amount that is calculated from all of the net income from the year.

A lower net income is only going going to help to bring about a smaller bonus bill.

At a time when the prices are falling, the FIFO is what would be the best choice. It gives a smaller ending cost of inventory since the ending prices are going to be at their lowest.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

A. 315,550 or more

B. Lowest total cost of annual volume of 120 boats

C. C

Explanation:

The lowest total cost among the three alternatives is b.

If the company goes for new location it will have to incur fixed cost of $270,000 and variable cost per boat will be $600.

If the company Subcontracts then Total cost per boat is $2,620

If a company goes for expanding existing facility then it will incur fixed cost of $57,000 and variable cost will be $1,030 per boat.

If company produces 315,000 or more boats then it will have lowest possible cost for the boat.

For an output of 120 bots the best possible alternative is option C. The fixed cost will be $475 per boat ($57,000 / 120 boats)

The total cost will be $1,505 ($475 + $1,030)

Rob's wife, Marie, has a wage income of $250,000. They jointly sold stocks in 2019 and generated a long-term capital gain of $13
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to IR Many individuals, including owners of businesses operated through sole proprietorships, partnerships, S corporations, trusts and estates may be eligible for a qualified business income deduction, also called the section 199A deduction. Some trusts and estates may also claim the deduction directly.

The deduction allows them to deduct up to 20 percent of their qualified business income (QBI), plus 20 percent of qualified real estate investment trust (REIT) dividends and qualified publicly traded partnership (PTP) income. Income earned by a C corporation or by providing services as an employee isn't eligible for the deduction.

1. QBI component. This component of the deduction equals 20 percent of QBI from a domestic business operated as a sole proprietorship or through a partnership, S corporation, trust or estate. Depending on the taxpayer's taxable income, the QBI Component is subject to limitations including:

 

a. The type of trade or business,

b. The amount of W-2 wages paid by the qualified trade or business, and

c. The unadjusted basis immediately after acquisition (UBIA) of qualified property held by the trade or business.

These limitations do not apply to taxpayers with taxable income at or below a certain threshold. For 2018, the threshold amount is $315,000 for a married couple filing a joint return, and $157,500 for all other taxpayers.

STEPS ARE:

1. Original QBID = 154K*20% = 30,800

2. Wage/Cap. Investment limitation: a) wage limitation = 58K*50%= 29,000

b) wage/capital limit. = wage(58K*25%) +capital(300K*2.5%) =14,500+7,500=22K

We take the larger of them => 29K

3) Since original QBID is greater than wage limitation, we must use reduction ratio. In this case:

408K (taxable income) - 315K(threshold)/100,000 = 0.93

4) Now we subtract the wage limitation from original QBID (30,800 - 29,000) * 0.93= 1,674.

5) Finally, subtract that from original QBID 30,800-1,674=29,126.

29,126 their final QBID
