Answer: D. Todd should include the $500 in 2015 gross income in accordance with the tax benefit rule.
Explanation:
It should be noted that due to the fact that Todd is a cash basis taxpayer, he'll be able to deduct the one-year prepayment for insurance in the year that it was paid, 2014.
In this case, he deducted $1,200, then his net cost will be ($1200 - $500) = $700. In this case, Todd should then include the $500 refund in gross income for 2015 under the tax benefit rule.
Answer:
[C] Strike price minus the premium
Explanation:
A put buyer refers to the one who purchases a right (and not the obligation) to sell(put) the underlying asset at a pre determined strike price/exercise price at a future date.
A put buyer is under no obligation to exercise his right of selling the underlying asset. He will exercise his right only when his strike price is greater than the current market price upon expiry of the contract.
Put Buyer's profit is expressed as;
= Strike price - Option premium paid - Current market price upon expiry
Thus, his NET sales proceeds are equal to his Strike Price as reduced by Option premium paid.
Answer:
$1,000
Explanation:
We know that
Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
From the data given, we can calculate the variable cost using the high-low technique.
Variable cost per unit
=
=$15
Lease cost = FC + $15(Machine hours)
Lease cost -$15(Machine hours) = FC
Case,
i) 800 machine hours,
FC = Lease cost - $15(Machine hours)
= $16,000 -$15(1000) = $1,000
