6. Explain how liabilities of an LLC (taxed as a partnership) or an S corporation affect the amount of tax losses from the entit
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

LLC liabilities are included as part of member's tax basis while S corporation liabilities are not.

Tax rules favors LLCs.

Explanation:

LLC liabilities are included as part of a member's tax basis while S corporation liabilities are not included in an S corporation shareholder's tax basis other than loans from the shareholders.

This distinction is important because the amount of loss a member or shareholder may deduct is limited to his or her tax basis in either his or her LLC interest or shares. Thus in this particular regard Tax rules favors LLCs.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

2. For Joe income effect dominates while for Adam substitution effect dominates

Explanation:

Income effect refers to change in the real i.e inflation adjusted income when prices change.

In the given case, Joe works at two jobs which means that for a greater income he is willing to work for more hours. Thus, in his case it can be said that income effect is prominent.

In the case of Adam, he works overtime regularly which means for every extra hour of work, he earns an extra income. This represents change in the relative income owing to change in working habits. This is a case of substitution effect.

The expected average rate of return for a proposed investment of $650,000 in a fixed asset, with a useful life of 4 years, strai
Degger [83]

Answer:

18.5%

Explanation:

The formula to compute the average rate of return is shown below:

= Annual net income ÷ average investment

where,  

Annual net income equal to

= Expected total net income ÷ number of years

= $240,000 ÷ 4

= $60,000

And, the average investment would be

= (Initial investment + salvage value) ÷ 2

= ($650,000 + $0) ÷ 2

= $4650,000 ÷ 2

= $325,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the rate would equal to

= $60,000 ÷ $325,000

= 18.5%
