Answer:
Sam must report $700,000 distribution from Silver on his Income report.
Explanation:
The sale of the land is made by the corporation and the corporation is a tax payer therefore any gains and losses are for the company to pay tax on.
The deficits in the E&P are for Silver to take into account when about to pay taxes.
The basis of $200,000 is not income but cost and subtracted on the distribution income as is for Sam.

b) The trial balance is much less detailed than the balance sheet and income statement.
c) The accounting principle of materiality says that the information on the trial balance can be combined and simplified into more general reporting items.
d) The accounting principle of money measurement says that the information on the trial balance can be combined and simplified into more general reporting items.
e) The trial balance shows only nominal accounts.
Answer:
a) The trial balance includes all of the accounts needed to create the balance sheet and the income statement.
Explanation:
Company XYZ's trial balance summarizes all the general ledger account balances with the assets and expenses on the debit side and the liabilities, equity, and income on the credit side. It is extracted from the general ledger for all accounts that do not have equal debit and credit sides. It is one of the ways to ensure that proper double entry system of bookkeeping has been followed. That the two sides are in balance does not mean that the trial balance or the general ledger from which it is prepared is error-free. It simply means that the two sides agree in total. XYZ can prepare the trial balance at any time, not necessarily at the end of the period.
The correct answer is C) overallocated.
When using a normal costing system, yearend accounting records will show that indirect costs are overallocated.
This means that in any business, overallocation is when resources are not correctly allocated to the departments or activities needed. SO when planning a project, overallocation can be the mistake of assig more resources to one side of the project, department, area, or unit. This implies the idea that other departments or activities are gings to lack the proper funding to do their work. Of course, overallocation can affect the results of the project or the time is needed to get it done.
Answer:
C) Louis has not accepted and there is no contract.
Explanation:
In this scenario, Laura offered to sell Louis a tract of land. The offer was complete and certain as to all material terms but the offer stated that a telegraphed acceptance was required. Within a reasonable time, Louis telephoned Laura to accept but this doesn't translate to acceptance because Louis has not done the needful to present or send a telegraphed acceptance.
Hence, in this situation, Louis has not accepted and there is no contract yet.
Under the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), an offer has been accepted only when Louis (the offeree) performs the requisite act by Laura (the offerer).
In this case of selling a tract of land, a telegraphed acceptance is the authorized and authentic means of communication of acceptance.
Additionally, a Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is a legal principle, regulations and standard set of laws for transactions of business between two or more parties.
