Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

But before reaching to the final answers, first determine the contribution margin per unit which is

a. Contribution margin per unit =Sales-Variable cost  

= $80 - $43

= $37 per unit

Now

Breakeven = Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin

= $340,400 ÷ $37

= 9,200 units

b.Contribution margin = Sales - Variable cost  

= $80 - $46

= $34 per unit

Now

New Breakeven = Fixed expenses ÷ Contribution margin

= $270,000 ÷ 34

= 7,941 units

NemiM [27]

Answer:

$671,300

Explanation:

The calculation of adjusted basis in the building is shown below:-

Adjusted basis = Original cost of the property + Cost of capital improvements - Depreciation claimed

= $750,000 + $50,000 - $128,700

= $800,000 - $128,700

= $671,300

Therefore for computing the adjusted basis we simply add original cost of the property with cost of capital improvements and deduct depreciation claimed.

We are told in the question that ''Market Corporation completely liquidates Subsidiary​ Corporation, receiving land with a​ $400,000 adjusted basis and a​ $500,000 Fair Market Value''

In the event of liquidation the value of an asset is no longer its carrying amount or book value but rather the amount at which the asset can be disposed which is the fair market value.
