Answer:

A. A corporation that accrues compensation payable to an employee must pay the amount within two and one half months after the close of the taxable year to deduct the amount in the year of the accrual.

Explanation:

This is called the 2.5 months rule. Sections 404 and 451 state that accrual taxpayers are allowed to claim deductions for accrued compensation even if it actually paid them after the business's tax year is over. In order for this rule to apply, the accrued compensation must:

  • satisfy the all events test: the events that result in the accrued compensation must occur before the compensation is made, e.g. you must work for a company during year X before the company hands out a bonus for year X.
  • the compensation must be paid within 2.5 months after the business's tax year is over. E.g. if a company's tax year ends on December 31, all accrued compensations like paid vacations or bonuses must be paid before March 15.

One of the challenges for smaller businesses in using collaborative enterprise 2.0 tools is ________.
aleksandrvk [35]
<span>Challenge 1: Technology in the enterprise comes from consumers. Applications such as email and voicemail traditionally sprung from the enterprise itself, with user adoption neatly controlled by IT. Today a lot of technology is coming from consumers directly. Consumers who have been using Web 2.0 tools such as instant messaging, wikis, and discussion forums in their home and social life for years are now the employees expecting the same types of applications in the workplace. What's more, they expect the same levels of performance and ease of accessibility. Add to this the rapid pace of technology, the varied forms of Web 2.0 communications, the sheer amount of content being moved, the increasing mobility of employees, realities of a global workforce (e.g., accommodating varying time zones), and the impact all of this has on your network . . . well, the challenge becomes even greater. How do enterprises keep up with this demand?</span>
