Given: -
Sarah's income = 25% of the partnership income but not less than $12,000.
Net income of partnership for the year = $32,000.
To find: -
1) Amount that can be deducted by partnership as guaranteed payment.
2) Income that Sarah is to report on her tax return.
Solution: -
Partnership income = $32,000
Sarah's share = 25% of 32000 = $8,000
But Sarah must receive $12,000 (Shortfall $12,000-$8,000=$4,000)
So, 1) $4,000 can be deducted by partnership as guaranteed payment.
2) Income that Sarah needs to report on her tax return = $12,000.

PV of Perpetuity = $5000
Explanation:
A perpetuity is a series of cash flows that are constant, occur after equal intervals of time and are for infinite period of time or are perpetual. Thus, it is like and annuity but with an infinite time period. The formula for the present value of of perpetuity is,

- r is the required rate of return
PV of Perpetuity = 250 / 0.05
PV of Perpetuity = $5000

The amount recorded in the Land account is $61,200
Explanation:
The cost of acquisition/purchase of a landed asset includes all the normal, reasonable and necessary costs incurred in obtaining the land and getting it ready for use. These cost includes the price of the land, the legal fees, title fees, taxes, excavation costs etc. On the other hand, cost of improvements on the land are recorded on improvement on asset accounts, where depreciation is put in consideration when computing cost. This is separate from acquisition cost because, there is no depreciation on a land. The cost is calculated as follows:
purchase price = $ 45,000
broker's fees = $ 8,000
accrued taxes = $ 2,000
demolition = $ 2,700
grading = $ 1,500
excavation = $ 2,000
Total = $ 61,200
Plant cells having giant vacuoles which help them store more water than an animal cell. They also have chloroplasts allowing them to photosynthesize and make food, animal cells don't need chloroplasts. And lastly they have a cell wall which helps keep plant cells turgid or sturdy so they don't take in too much water and burst.<span />
