Explanation:
The question is an example of a Performance Contract.
A Performance Contract is an agreement with a customer by a vendor to discharge a service or provide goods that are distinct from each other. The accounting for this obligations will therefore be recorded and recognized separately.
It is also important to note that the services or goods must be separately identifiable and the customer must be able to derive from each goods on individually or jointly.
The rule is to
- Recognize the contract and invoice amount with the customer as Deferred Income.
- Identify the distinct obligations and services to be provided.
- Identify the transaction amount for each service or good.
- As each obligation is met, the revenue is finally recognized and transferred from Deferred income.
<span>Basically "Opportunity cost" is what you're going to lose (or have a potential to lose) if you chose a different action than what you're presented with. In the example, you're working for $15 an hour, but if you decide instead to skip a pratrice to go to the fair you're losing out of the $15 an hour you'll be paid and have to pay $9 to go to the fair. All total, you're opportunity costs for that will be $24 (fifteen you would have made plus the nine dollar fee.) This is also assuming, of course, they don't fire/dock you for just skipping work.</span>
Answer:

Explanation:
Given:
You own a building that has four possible uses: a cafe, a craft store, a hardware store, and a bookstore. The value of the building in each use is $2,000; $3,000; $4,000; and $5,000, respectively.You decide to open a hardware store.
<u>Question asked:</u>
The <u>opportunity cost of using this </u><u>building for a hardware store</u> ?
<u>Solution:</u>
As we know:
What you sacrifice = Value of a cafe + Value of a craft store + Value of a bookstore
= $2000 + $3000 + $5000 = $10,000
What you gain = Value of a hardware store
= $4000
Thus, the opportunity cost of using this building for a hardware store is $2.5
Answer: $15,000
Explanation:
From the question, Carl transfers land with a fair market value of $120,000 and basis of $30,000, to a new corporation in exchange for 85 percent of the corporation's stock and that the land is subject to a $45,000 liability, which the corporation assumes.
The amount of gain that Carl must recognize as a result of this transaction will be the difference between the liability the land is subjected to which is $45,000 and the basis of the land which is $30,000.
= $45,000 - $30,000
= $15,000
