Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": might be estimated based on the experience of others or on engineering studies and judgment if the company does not have past experience with a similar asset.

Explanation:

A company's assets represent the<em> cash, patents, accounts receivable, equipment, plants, </em>and <em>land</em>, among others, useful for the firm to generate profit. When it comes to plant assets, they are considered fixed assets for cost accounting purposes and are nothing but the <em>land, buildings and machinery</em> useful for manufacturing.

<em>Calculating the useful life of a plant asset can be complicated and may require engineering studies. However, if the expertise of an employee is good enough to determine it the firm must take advantage of this strength but if there is nobody with this capability the institution should look for someone who does moreover when it does not have experience computing the useful life of such assets.</em>

Eric and Katie, who are married, jointly own a house in which they have resided for the past 17 years. They sell the house for $
Elodia [21]

Answer:

C) $0 $285,000

Explanation:

The §121 exclusion establishes that homeowners can exclude from their capital gains taxes the sale of their property for a maximum of $250,000 gain (or $500,000 for joint filers) if they meet two criteria:

  • they owned the property for at last 5 years
  • they use the property as main residence for at least 2 years (they can aggregate time periods).

So if Eric and Katie use the §121 exclusion they wouldn't pay any capital gains tax ($500,000 is higher than $375,000).

If they decide to forgo the §121 exclusion, then they will have to pay taxes for a gain of:

capital gain = net sale price - asst basis

capital gain = ($375,000 - $10,000) - $80,000 = $365,000 - $80,000 = $285,000
