Answer:

a. In consideration for her one-half interest in their personal residence, Kirby will transfer to Nell stock with a value of $200,000 and $50,000 of cash. Kirby's cost of the stock was $150,000, and the value of the personal residence is $500,000. They purchased the residence three years ago for $300,000.

Nell's basis for the stock is <u>$150,000</u>

Kirby's basis in the house is <u>$300,000</u>

The transfer of property due to divorce is nontaxable. The $50,000 that Nell receives is generally considered alimony (for tax purposes).

b. Nell will receive $1,000 per month for 120 months. If she dies before receiving all 120 payments, the remaining payments will be made to her estate.

The payments <u>NOT QUALIFY</u> as alimony and are <u>EXCLUDED FROM</u> Nell's gross income as they are received.

The TC&JA changed alimony rules and made them not deductible for the spouse that gives it, and not taxable for the spouse that receives it. It now works in a similar manner than child support. It doesn't make any difference now if payments are alimony or not.

c. Nell is to have custody of their 12-year-old son, Bobby. She is to receive $1,200 per month until Bobby (1) dies or (2) attains age 21 (whichever occurs first). After either of these events occurs, Nell will receive only $300 per month for the remainder of her life.

<u>$300</u> per month is alimony that is <u>EXCLUDED FROM</u> Nell's gross income, and the remaining <u>$900</u> per month is considered​ <u>CHILD SUPPORT</u> and is <u>NONTAXABLE</u> to Nell.

Again, the TC&JA changed the rules, so alimony received is not taxable.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

A. $25,000

B. $4,300

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine What amount will the insurance company pay for the damages

Using this formula

Insurance payment=(Claim amount, Policy limit)

Let plug in the formula

Insurance payment= $25,000

Therefore the amount that the insurance company will pay for the damages is $25,000

B. Calculation to determine What amount will Kurt have to pay

Using this formula

Personal liability=Claim amount - Insurance payment

Let plug in the formula

Personal liability=($9,000 + $20,300) - $25,000

Personal liability=$29,300-$25,000

Personal liability=$4,300

Therefore Kurt have to pay $4,300

Explanation:

we solve using the CAPM method:

Ke= r_f + \beta (r_m-r_f)  

risk free 0.0425

market rate 0.11

Company A

beta(non diversifiable risk) 0.7  

Ke= 0.0425 + 0.7 (0.0675)  

Ke 0.08975 = 8.975%

Company B

beta(non diversifiable risk) 0.8

Ke= 0.0425 + 0.8 (0.0675)

Ke 0.09650 = 9.65%

difference: 9.65% - 8.975% =  0.675%
