On January 1, 2009, a U.S. firm made an investment in Germany that will generate $5 million annually in depreciation, converted
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

The expected real value (in terms of January 1, 2009, dollars) of the depreciation charge in year 2013 will be $1,958,815.416.

Explanation:

It is expected that the value of the dollar in the German market will fall at the same rate as that of the real market value of the dollar when we envisage the exchange rate will remain the same. Thus the depreciation of the tax write-off in terms of its real value in dollars will fall at 5% every year from 2009 to 2013.

Therefore, at a tax rate of 50% in Germany, a $2.5 million charge on depreciation on the investment of $5 million will result in 2013.

To calculate the real value of the dollar at an inflation of 5% yearly in 2013

When the tax rate in German is 50%, then charges of depreciation of $5 million will equal4$2.5 million in 2013 dollars. When the dollar's real value of this write-off is declining due to the inflation at 5% annually, the real value in 2013 will be calculated as:

Given: $2,500,000 (P/F , 5%, 5years) ;  0.78356 (factor for calculating the amount to be recieved after  5years)

= $2,500,000 * 0.78356

= $1,958,815.416

"Your customer, age 68, who has an IRA account at your firm valued at $500,000, passes away. The customer leaves the account to
vredina [299]

Answer:

My best advice for the spouse would be to designate herself as the new account owner, and since she is 62, she can start taking regular distributions from it. Any distributions that she takes will be taxed as ordinary income (the same rule would have applied to the late husband).

Explanation:

If she had her own IRA account (which is doubtful since she doesn't work), she could also roll over her late spouse's balance into her own account.

The wife's third option would be to treat herself as a beneficiary, not the owner or spouse, but that would only complicate things and result in higher costs.
