Answer:

A. $120,000 is subject to self-employment tax

B. Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax is $16,955

C. Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction is $21,500

D. The taxable income from her bookstore activity is $107,982

Explanation:

A. The income from normal business activities are eligible for self employment tax, therefore $120,000 is subject to self-employment tax.

B. To calculate Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax we have to make the following calculation:

Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax=($120,000×92.35%)×15.30%

Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax=$16,955

C. Assuming $43,000 of W-2 wages and $90,000 unadjusted basis of tangible depreciable property, the computation of Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction would be as follows:

In this case would be 50% of W2 wage, therefore:

Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction=$43,000×50%=$21,500

D. The taxable income from her bookstore activity=Gross Income-50%self-employment tax-Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction

Gross Income=$120,000+$17,000+$960=$137,960

50%self-employment tax=$16,955×50%=$8,478

Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction=$21,500

Therefore, The taxable income from her bookstore activity= $137,960-$8,478-$21,500=$107,982

When you purchase an item in a store, you may be charged __________.
Bess [88]
<span>When buying any item in most stores, you are charged sales tax. Retailers, even smaller businesses are charged taxes for running their business. Businesses are able to pass on part of the burden to their paying customers in way of sales tax. So when you see an item marked as 99 cents, you will be paying slightly more than a dollar in almost all cases.</span>

Suppose that an investor with a 10-year investment horizon is considering purchasing a 20-year 8% coupon bond selling for $900.
leonid [27]

Answer:

8.67%

Explanation:

PMT (Semi-annual coupon) = par value*coupon rate/2 = 1,000*8%/2 = 40

N (No of coupons paid) = 10*2 = 20

Rate (Semi-annual reinvestment rate) = 7%/2 = 3.5%

Future value of reinvested coupons = FV(PMT, N, Rate)

Future value of reinvested coupons = FV(40, 20, 3.5%)

Future value of reinvested coupons = $1,131.19

FV = 1,000

PMT (Semi-annual coupons) = 40

N (No of coupons pending) = 10*2 = 20

Rate (Semi-annual YTM) = 9%/2 = 4.5%

Price of the bond after 10 years = PV(FV, PMT, N, RATE)

Price of the bond after 10 years = PV(1000, 40, 20, 4.5%)

Price of the bond after 10 years = $934.96

Total amount after 10 years = Future value of reinvested coupons + Price of the bond after 10 years

Total amount after 10 years = $1,131.19 + $934.96

Total amount after 10 years = $2,066.15

Amount invested (Price of the bond now) = $900.

Total Annual Return = [(Total amount after 10 years / Amount invested)^(1/holding period)] -1

Total Annual Return = [($2,066.15/$900)^(1/10)] -1

Total Annual Return = [2.295722^0.1] - 1

Total Annual Return = 1.08665561792 - 1

Total Annual Return = 0.08665561792

Total Annual Return = 8.67%

Ben sold his townhome on March 12. The property is subject to an HOA fee of $355 per month, which Ben prepaid for the month of M
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

$213

Explanation:

For computing the owed amount, first we have to compute the daily rate per day which is shown below:

= HOA fee ÷ number of days in a month

= $355 ÷ 30 days

= 11.83 per day

We know that the number of days in a month is 30 days and the townhome is sold on March 12, so the remaining days would be 18 days ( 30 days - 12 days of march month)

Now the owed amount would be

= Remaining days × per day rate

= 18 days × 11.83

= $213
