Answer:
D. No loss recognized and a reduction in E&P of $200,000
Explanation:
Given that:
- Current and accumulated E&P : $500,000
- A distribution of land to its sole shareholder: $200,000
- E&P basis to Catamount : $250,000
From that, we can see that the current and accumulated E&P is greater than its distribution of land so no loss would be reported so there will be reduction in earning and profits of the company of $200,000.
Hope it will find you well.
Answer:
the depreciation expense recorded is $680
Explanation:
The computation of the depreciation expense under the straight-line method is shown below:
= (Purchase cost - residual value) ÷ (estimated life)
= ($17,500 - $1,180) ÷ ( 4 years)
= $4,080
Now the 2 months depreciation is i.e. from November to December
= $4,080 × 2 months ÷ 12 months
= $680
Hence, the depreciation expense recorded is $680
Answer:
C. 20.00 percent
Explanation:
The computation of the accounting rate of return is shown below:
The formula to compute the accounting rate of return is shown below:
= Annual net income ÷ initial investment
where,
Annual net income is
= Net cash flows - depreciation expense
= $12,000 - $6,000
= $6,000
And, the initial investment is $30,000
So, the accounting rate of return on initial investment is
= $6,000 ÷ $30,000
= 20%
The depreciation expense is
= $30,000 ÷ 5 years
= $6,000
Answer:
Price and quantity of chickens sold will increase.
Explanation:
Due to the prevalence of the mad cow disease, demand for cow meat will go down. Since chicken is a substitute for cow meat and there is a breed that grows twice as much with the same feeds, the demand for chicken will rise.
In economics when other factors apart from price changes it results in demand shift. In this instance demand will shift to the right.
As illustrated in the attached diagram, there will be higher quantity demanded at higher prices than before.
