Answer:

By what percentage did the price of a dozen eggs rise?

  • [($2.75 - $0.96) / $0.96] x 100 = 186.46%

By what percentage did the wage rise?

  • [($21.26 - $14.28) / $14.28] x 100 = 48.88%

In order to earn enough to buy a dozen eggs, a worker had to work <u>4.04</u> minutes in December 2000 and <u>7.76</u> minutes in December 2015.

  • ($0.96 / $14.28) x 60 = 4.04 minutes
  • ($2.75 / $21.26) x 60 = 7.76 minutes

Workers' purchasing power in terms of eggs between 2000 and 2015.

  • purchasing power in terms of eggs in 2000 = 14.875 dozens of eggs per hour
  • purchasing power in terms of eggs in 2015 = 7.76 dozens of eggs per hour

TPW, a calendar year taxpayer, sold land with a $535,000 tax basis for $750,000 in February. The purchaser paid $75,000 cash at
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Amount realized on sale:

Cash                                                                 $75,000

Purchaser’s note 675,000

                                                                                         $750,000

Adjusted basis (535,000)

Gain realized on sale $215,000

b. $215,000 gain realized ÷ $750,000 contract price = 28.67% gross profit percentage.

Cash received in year of sale:

Cash at closing                                             $75,000

August principal payment 33,750

                                                                                       $108,750

Gain recognized   (108750*28.67%) $31,179

A. Book gain                                     $215,000

Tax gain (31,179)

Book/tax difference                                       $183,821

B. $183,821 × 35% = $64,338 deferred tax liability

The excess of book gain over tax gain is a favorable difference.
