Answer:

Option C is correct.

Cash basis $0

Accrual Basis $24,000

Explanation:

The reason is that under the cash basis, the company would record revenue of $72,000 in the first year which ends on 31 Dec, 2021. And on next two year, there is no revenue recorded under cash basis accounting. But under accrual basis, the expenses and associated revenues must be recorded when they are realized. In the first year the realized amount would depend on the number of months the property was in possession of the Rent Inc. If the number of months that the property was in possession was 12 months then the rental expenses realized would be $24,000 ($72000*12/36). So the correct option would be option C.

A report that shows the financial picture of a company at a given time and itemizes assets, liabilities and stockholders' equity
natta225 [31]

Answer: e

Explanation :

A balance sheet is a statement of the financial position of a business that lists the assets, liabilities and owner's equity at a particular point in time. In other words, the balance sheet illustrates your business's net worth.

The balance sheet may also have details from previous years so you can do a back-to-back comparison of two consecutive years. This data will help you track your performance and will identify ways to build up your finances and see where you need to improve.

A balance sheet reports a company's assets, liabilities and shareholders' equity at a specific point in time, and provides a basis for computing rates of return and evaluating its capital structure . the balance sheet is divided into two sides (or sections). The left side of the balance sheet outlines all a company’s assets. On the right side, the balance sheet outlines the companies liabilities and shareholders’ equity. On either side, the main line items are generally classified by liquidity. More liquid accounts like Inventory, Cash, and Trades Payables are placed before illiquid accounts such as Plant, Property, and Equipment (PP&E) and Long-Term Debt. The assets and liabilities are also separated into two categories: current asset/liabilities and non-current (long-term) assets/liabilities.

Eric and Katie, who are married, jointly own a house in which they have resided for the past 17 years. They sell the house for $
Elodia [21]

Answer:

C) $0 $285,000

Explanation:

The §121 exclusion establishes that homeowners can exclude from their capital gains taxes the sale of their property for a maximum of $250,000 gain (or $500,000 for joint filers) if they meet two criteria:

  • they owned the property for at last 5 years
  • they use the property as main residence for at least 2 years (they can aggregate time periods).

So if Eric and Katie use the §121 exclusion they wouldn't pay any capital gains tax ($500,000 is higher than $375,000).

If they decide to forgo the §121 exclusion, then they will have to pay taxes for a gain of:

capital gain = net sale price - asst basis

capital gain = ($375,000 - $10,000) - $80,000 = $365,000 - $80,000 = $285,000

Cullumber, Inc., management expects the company to earn cash flows of $12,900, $16,300, $18,600, and $19,800 over the next four
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Total= $77,153

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Cullumber, Inc., management expects the company to earn cash flows of $12,900, $16,300, $18,600, and $19,800 over the next four years.

The discount rate is 10%.

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula for each cash flow:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

Cf1= 12,900*1.1^3= 17,169.9

Cf2= 16,300*1.1^2= 19,723

Cf3= 18,600*1.1= 20,460

Cf4= 19,800

Total= $77,153

The problem now is to decide which contractor to choose.B has indicated that for another $20 million he could do the job in 18 m
Ede4ka [16]

Question: The question is incomplete. See the full question below and the answer.

You are an up-and-coming developer in downtown Seattle and are interested in constructing a building on a site you own. You have collected four bids from prospective contractors. The bids include both a cost ($millions) and time to completion (months):

Contractor    Cost           Time

A                   100             20

B                    80              25

C                    79               28

D                   82                26

The problem now is to decide which contractor to choose. B has indicated that for another $20 million, he could do the job in 18 months, and you have said that you would be indifferent between that bid and the original proposal. In talking with C, you have indicated that you would just as soon pay her an extra $million if she could get the job done in 26 months. Who gets the job? Explain your reasoning. (It may be convenient to plot the four alternatives on a graph.)

Answer:

See the explanation for the answer and find attached of the graph.

Explanation:

So we draw a regression line of Time vs Cost and best fit a curve based on the data given, given in the above figure. The four alternatives are marked in the figure as well. Our main objective is to reduce both time and cost, but that might not be possible So the best thing would be to look for alternatives which lie below the line. If C gets an extra million, then that point would come below the regression line, and it would be a better alternative than D, because for the same time we are getting the job done at a cheaper cost.

Also if B is paid extra 20 million, that point also comes below the regression line, and hence will be a better alternative than A because for the same cost again we are getting the job done earlier. We need to choose between B and C. Now in order to optimise both cost and time, we need to choose a point close to the middle point of the regression line segment in 1st quadrant. We see that C is much more closer to the middle point and hence seems like a better option.

So we choose C as our contractor if we consider B's alternative bid, but if we do not consider B's alternative bid and stick to the original one, we choose B as our contractor.
