Answer:

Goodwill = 25,000

Explanation:

Goodwill is an intangible asset, is the differential reflected in a consolidated balance sheet immediately after the business combination between the purchase price of a company and the fair market value of identifiable assets and liabilities. Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price is higher than the sum of the fair value of all identifiable tangible and intangible assets purchased in the acquisition and the liabilities assumed in the process.

In this case:

Goodwill = Purchse Price - Net assets fair value

Goodwill = 340,000 - 315,000

Goodwill = 25,000

The difference between the book value and fair value of the acquired company are adjustments to the amount presented in the consolidated balance sheet.

Jurisdiction E spends approximately $7 million each winter on snow removal. The jurisdiction is considering adding a new income
frez [133]

Answer:

'Taxes' can be defined as a compulsory contribution to the state's or country's revenues, which are levied by the governments on personal incomes of individuals or profits of the corporate, or on some transactions.

Taxes are the main source of revenues for any government, through which it receives the necessary funds to spend on various activities it undertakes for public welfare and maintaining the law and order and security of the nation.

Many theorists believe that every tax should be evaluated on certain standards and the following four standards have been mentioned for evaluating whether taxes are good or not:

  1. Taxes should be sufficient to fulfill the government's requirements
  2. Taxes should be convenient for the government to implement and for the citizens to pay
  3. Taxes should be efficient economically
  4. Taxes should be fair

There may be certain provisions introduced in the federal tax system, which are targeted to induce certain behaviors or shift people's attention towards certain activities. These provisions are called tax preferences

Does this proposed change in Jurisdiction E's tax law meet the definition of a tax preference? Explain briefly.

In the given question, the decision of the jurisdiction to give deduction to the people for the snow removal equipment they purchase, is definitely a tax preference as it induces people to invest in snow removing machines, as they are getting full deduction of such expense in income taxes.

By having this provision, the government is motivating people to invest in these machines, and people also have the benefit of having such machine with them, and also getting tax deduction for such expense, so getting such machine almost free (this applies to people who have incomes in such tax bracket only). Thus it is the way of government in encouraging people to buy snow removing machines and reduce the burden on the government. Thus it is clearly a tax preference.

Jurisdiction E forecasts that the proposed change will decrease its annual tax revenues by $250,000 but will improve the jurisdiction's financial condition by $300,000. On what assumptions is this forecast based?

The forecast regarding decrease in annual tax and improvement in financial condition is based on the assumptions of people taking benefit of such a provision, and actually investing in snow removing machines.

The jurisdiction believes that people will purchase the machines and make claims for deductions, effecting the tax revenue by $250,000. But at the same time, as many people will themselves remove the snow, the government doesn't have to spend so much on snow removal and thus make the savings of $300,000

The amount of income under absorption costing will be more than the amount of income under variable costing when units manufactu
Sholpan [36]

Answer: A.exceed units sold

Explanation:

In Absorption Costing, All costs be it Fixed or Variable that are directly related to production are considered when computing the Cost of Production.

Under Variable Costs however, only variable Costs are considered for the computing of Cost of Production.

This difference in consideration of costs under each method leads to difference in income determination under each method.

Under Absorption Costing, fixed manufacturing costs are apportioned on produced units and the costs are only recovered when the units are sold but under variable costing, fixed manufacturing costs are treated as period costs and are therefore charged to the Income statement.

This means that, the amount of income under absorption costing will be more than the amount of income under variable costing when units manufactured exceed units sold.
