Answer:

$6000

Explanation:

Accordingly, the costs associated with throwing a party for employees and their families (spouses and significant others) are fully deductible (100%) as long as the party is hosted primarily for the employees. In this case, the party is for the employees as it is seen to benefits them, thus, total cost Donald can deduct equals cost of beverages and food plus cost of band,

That is,

= 5500 + 500

=$6000

Tara Company owns 30% of Hawkins, Inc. and applies the equity method. During the current year, Hawkins buys inventory costing $4
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The correct option is d. $7,500

Explanation:

For computing the unrealized gain, first we have to compute the gross profit ratio which is shown below:

Since gross profit is not given in the question, so, first we have to find it.

The gross profit formula is shown below:

= Sales revenue - cost of goods sold

= $500,000 - $400,000

= $100,000

Now, gross profit ratio equals to

= (Gross profit ÷ sales revenue) × 100

= ($100,000 ÷ $500,000) × 100

= 20%

In the question, the 25% of merchandise is still held by Tara.

Since merchandise inventory is not given

So, we multiply the gross profit by 25% and 30%

In mathematically,

= Gross profit × 25% × 30%

= $100,000 × 25% × 30%

= $7,500

Hence, the $7,500 amount of unrealized gain must be deferred by Hawkins in reporting on the equity method

Therefore, the correct option is d. $7,500
