Answer:

$0 and $12,750

Explanation:

To check deductions for 2019 and 2020, we need to check total expenses:

Total Expenses = $85,000 + $30,000 + $12,500

= $127,500

Since it has a 60 month deferral and amortization period, we need to check for each month. Therefore we have:

=Total expenses / 60months

= $127,500 ÷ 60 months

= $2,125

Therefore, in 2019 there's no benefit or deduction since all expenditures are made.

To get the 2020 the deduction we use:

= Monthly amortization or defferal cost * number of months

= $2,125 × 6 months

= $12,750

The 6 months is calculated assuming books are closed on December 31. It is from July 1 to December 31.

In a closed-fact problem, the main goal of tax research is to: find support for an action the taxpayer has already taken.

Explanation:

When filing a tax return, many people are medically supported. Strong tax research skills are even greater because of their complexity and application in tax law. The purpose of this chapter is to provide information and advice on tax compliance analysis as well as tax planning. In addition, the technique of tax analysis is quite similar to accounting and auditing.

The aim of tax research is to increase the profit or gains of the taxpayer. The aim is not to generate the minimum tax liability potential. Customers should determine the accuracy of tax returns or try to minimize possible IRS conflicts.

This difference of perspective — to optimize after-tax gains instead of reducing taxation — is particularly important when one considers that many tax planning techniques require such pre-tax income transfers, either in the form of additional expenditures, income avoidance or both.

nalin [4]

Answer: Deficit

Explanation:

The current account shows the difference between imports and exports as well as net income from outside.

If this balance is zero, it means that imports are equal to exports and income sent abroad equals income recovered from abroad.

If real income in the US was to increase, people would demand more goods and services including more imports. This will shift the current account to a deficit as the imports will surpass the exports.

The weight of a product is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.5 grams. If the production manager wants no more
Savatey [412]

Answer:

4.28 grams

Explanation:

The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by the formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ \mu=mean,\sigma=standard \ deviation,\ x=raw\ score

Given that:

P(x > 5.1 grams) = 5%, x = 5.1 grams, σ = 0.5 grams

P(x > 5.1 grams) = 5%

P(x < 5.1 grams) = 100% - 5% = 95%

P(x < 5.1) = 95%

From the normal distribution table, 95% corresponds with a z score of 1.645. Hence:

1.64=\frac{5.1-\mu}{0.5}\\\\5.1-\mu=0.82\\\\\mu=4.28\ grams

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

There is not gain in this operation so the answer is $0

Explanation:

There are some journal entries that needs to be done to have a full picture of the statement

* Purchase

Fixed Assets                        690.000

Cash                                                        690.000

* Monthly depreciation

Since, the FA was depreciated during 8 years. Firstly you have to calculate the amount that can be depreciate on a monthly basis

Amount to be depreciated = (Cost of the FA - Salvage value) = (690.000-48.600) = 641.400

Then calculate the yearly depreciation

Yearly depreciation = ((amount to be depreciated/useful life) * years used) =

(641.400/10*8) = 513.120

then the journal entry to record the monthly depreciation for 8 years is

Depreciation expense          513.120

Acc Depreciation                                   513.120

* Post the Journal Entry to record the sell of FA

You have to reverse the Acc Depreciation and credit the FA

Cash                                     152.500

Fixed assets                                         690.000

Acc depreciation                   513.120

Loss on sale of FA                   24.380
