Answer:
The answer is A) $2,000
Explanation:
According to the IRS Publication 525 (2018), Taxable and Nontaxable Income
<em>"</em><em><u>If you receive tangible personal property (other than cash, a gift certificate, or an equivalent item) as an award for length of service</u></em><em> or safety achievement, you generally can </em><em><u>exclude its value from your income</u></em><em>. However, the amount you can exclude is limited to your employer's cost and </em><em><u>can’t be more than $1,600</u></em><em> ($400 for awards that aren’t qualified plan awards) for all such awards you receive during the year. Your employer can tell you whether your award is a qualified plan award. Your employer must make the award as part of a meaningful presentation, under conditions and circumstances that don’t create a significant likelihood of it being disguised pay." </em>
Ed has to include the $2,000 he received as income but the $250 watch can be excluded.
The answer would be 187.50
250 $ for 20 friends would be $12.50 per friend. So, 12.5 x 15 = $187.50
Answer:
U.S. Tax Burden on Cola:
The amount of the tax on a case of cola is $4 per case. Of this amount, the burden that falls on consumers is $1 per case, and the burden that falls on producers is ___$3______ per case.
The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers.
a. True
b. False
Explanation:
The tax burden on consumers, which is represented by the difference in the price of cola from $5 to $6 per unit is $1 ($6 - $5). However, the cash received by producers reduced by $3 from $5 to $2. This shows that the total tax burden on both consumers and producers is $4 ($1 + $3).
This represents a total tax burden of $4 or about 67% based on the new selling price of cola or 80% based on the old selling price of cola.
"The effect of the tax on the quantity sold would have been larger if the tax had been levied on consumers alone. This because the price of cola would have increased to $9 per unit. Since the demand for cola in this instance is elastic, this change in price would have caused a more than 80% change in the quantity demanded.
Answer:
A) $83
Explanation:
First, find aftertax OCF per year
aftertax OCF = (Operating benefit - depreciation)*(1-tax) +depreciation
Depreciation per year = 10,000/5 = 2,000
Tax = 34%
aftertax OCF per year = (3,000 - 2,000)*(1-0.34) + 2,000
= 660 +2,000
= 2,660
Next, find the PV of the aftertax OCF per year. It is an annuity;
PMT = 2,660
N = 5
I/Y = 10%
FV = 0
then CPT PV = 10,083.493
Subtract the initial cost of the machine to find the Net Present Value (NPV);
NPV = -$10,000 + $10,083.493
NPV = $83.493
