Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Time difference from the "Purchase date" to "Sale date" = 9 years (1/1/2007 to 1/1/2016)

Given that, in the 9 years, Troy rented the home for first 5 years (1/1/2007 to 1/1/2012), and lived in the home as his principal residence for next 1 year(1/1/2012 to 31/12/2012)

and again rented out the home for 1 year (1/1/2013 to 31/12/2013), and again started to lived in the home as his principal residence for next 2 years. (1/1/2014 to 1/1/2016)

i.e. when we look at the last 5 years before the sale of house, Troy has lived 3 years in the home as his principal residence.

And Troy has acquired the home for $300,000 and not acquired by "like kind exchange" of property.

As per IRS rules, a owner must live at least 2 years in the home as his principal residence & home must not be acquired by 1031 exchange (like/kind exchange).

Here, Troy satisfies both conditions. (He has lived more than 2 years, and not acquired by like/kind exchange)

So, as per above rules, Troy's home sale is eligible for Maximum exclusion of $250,000 gain (being Troy is Single)

Here, as per IRS rules, Gain = Amount Realized / Adjusted Basis = $320,000 - $300,000 = $20,000.

But, being Troy home sale is eligible for Maximum exclusion of $250,000, this $20,000 gain is deducted and Net Gain = $0.

How air particle density and air pressure are related
EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

The more gas particles there are within a given area, the greater the air density. Likewise, the greater the air density, the more gas particles there are per unit volume. Therefore, there are more air particles bombarding with a surface. Thus, the air pressure increases as the air density increases and visa versa... I hope this helps you answer your question :)

James owns a vacant property. By law, he can build the following building types, which generate a return on investment as listed
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Office building

Explanation:

The formula to compute the return on investment is shown below:

Return on investment = Operating Income ÷ Average Operating Assets

It is a mix of operating income and the average operating assets through the return on investment could be computed

Since the return on investment is already given in the question

And, the higher return on investment is the best one for property use

So the office building has a higher return on investment i.e 13.5% which reflects the best for property usage.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

<u>First, we need to calculate the plantwide predetermine manufacturing overhead rate:</u>

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base

total estimated overhead costs for the period= (625,000 + 900,000 + 105,000 + 175,000 + 300,000 + 75,000)

total estimated overhead costs for the period= $2,180,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= 2,180,000 / 125,000

Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $17.44 per direct labor hour

<u>Now, we can allocate overhead to each product line:</u>

Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base

<u>Deluxe:</u>

Allocated MOH= 17.44*2,500

Allocated MOH= $43,600

<u>Basic:</u>

Allocated MOH= 17.44*6,000

Allocated MOH= $104,640
