Answer:

First of all, I believe that their is a mistake on the question, since the FMV of the machine should be $100,000, not $10,000, or else it wouldn't make much sense.

a. What are the amount and character of Mary's recognized gain or loss?

ordinary income of $10,000

The two year note is considered boot and therefore, Mary must report it as ordinary income.

b. What is Mary's basis in the stock and note? When does her holding period begin?

Mary's basis in the stock is $60,000 (the basis of the machine), and $0 for the note (recognized as ordinary income). Her holding period began three years ago when the machine was purchased.

c. What are the amount and character of Green's gain or loss?

Under a carryover basis limit rule (for a section 351 exchange), Green Corporation's basis is reduced, but it not considered a loss or a gain. The basis of the exchanged stock must equal the carryover basis of the property given in exchange.  

d. What is Green's basis in the machine? When does Green's holding period begin?

Same as Mary's, the basis is $60,000 and the holding period is 3 years. Since Mary owns 100% of Green Corporation as a result of the exchange, her basis and the corporation's basis will be the same.

dedylja [7]

Answer:

$4,800

Explanation:

The computation of additional annual cash inflow is shown below:-

Saving in Annual Maintenance Cost by new machine = $15,000 - $6,000

= $9,000

Net savings on Maintenance = $9,000 × (1 - 0.4)

= $5,400

Decrease in Depreciation due to purchase of New machinery

= ($60,000 ÷ 10) - ($45,000 - 10)

= $6,000 - $4,500

= $1500  

Tax to be paid due to decrease in Depreciation = Decrease in Depreciation due to purchase of New machinery × Tax rate

= $1,500 × 0.4

= $600

Net Annual cash Inflow due to new machinery =  Net savings on Maintenance - Tax to be paid due to decrease in Depreciation

= $5,400 - $600

= $4,800

So, for computing the additional annual cash inflow we simply applied the above formula.

Suppose that the demand elasticity for cigarettes is equal to 2.0. If the demand elasticity for Camel cigarettes is equal to 6.0
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

Let understand what elastic and inelastic demand is:

- If the small change in price causes heavy change in the quantity demanded then the demand is said to be elastic.

- Opposite to it is inelastic where even there is a very high change in the price but there is not so much effect on the quantity demanded.

Here, Camel cigarettes has a price elasticity of demand which is equal to 6 which means if the price suddenly increased, the quantity demanded will decrease. If any cigarette is having price elasticity of demand less than 2, it means it has less elasticity or if price increases very much then quantity demanded will not be affected so much.
