Generally speaking, the taxpayer can deduct his alimony payment but not his child support payment. He may, however, be entitled to claim the child as a dependent, although this is beyond the scope of the question.
We can deduct the alimony payment but not the child support payment. Smith paid Goode $20,000 in 2017, although he owes 24,000. The adjusted gross income depends only on how much Alimony he paid.
If he paid the full $6,000 alimony and only 14,000 of child support, he can deduct the $6,000 for an adjusted gross income of 50,000- 6,000= $46,000.
If, for example, he paid the full $18,000 in child support and only 2,000 in alimony, he can only deduct the $2,000 for an adjusted gross income of 50,000 - 2,000 =48,000.

Answer:
The EAR you earn from the match is 100%.
Explanation:
Since a full 5 percent match will be received if 5 percent of your salary is invested, this implies that 100% will be earned by you from the match up to 5%.
For example, if 5 percent of your salary that you put in is $200, the East Coast Yachts will match the $200. This indicates that effective annual return (EAR) earned by you from the match is 100%.
Therefore, the EAR you earn from the match is 100%.
Answer:
3.84%
Explanation:
Calculation for dividend yield
Using this formula
Dividend Yield(%) = D / P0
Where,
D=$1.79
P0=$46.55
Let plug in the formula
Dividend Yield(%) =$1.79/$46.55
Dividend Yield(%) =0.0384*100
Dividend Yield(%) =3.84%
Therefore the dividend yield will be 3.84%
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. Let the break even sales be represented by x.
Firstly, we will calculate the total fixed cost which will be:
Investment = $4.5million/30 = $150,000
Add: Annual labor cost = $140,000
Add: Interest = 8% × $4.5million = $360,000
Total Fixed cost = $650000
The total variable cost will be: = 0.60 × x = 0.60x
Therefore, total cost:
= fixed cost + variable cost
= 650000 + 0.60x
Total revenue = Selling price × sales
= 3.20 × x = 3.20x
Break even point will now be:
Total revenue = Total cost
3.20x = 650000 + 0.60x
3.20x - 0.60x = 650000
2.60x = 650000
x = 650000/2.60
x = 250000
Therefore, number of cars that would have to park in the lot on an annual basis to pay off the project is 250000.
b. The approximate number of cars that would have to park in the lot on a daily basis will be:
= 250000/365 days
= 684.91
=685 cars
