A home mortgage is considered a secured loan because it is backed by __________.

1 answer:

8 0

It is backed by collateral, and in this case since it is a home mortgage, the collateral is your home. That means that if you don't pay your loan monthly payments on time or don't pay them at all, then they can take your home away and you can end up on the streets. That's why it is secured, it is secured for the bank, not for you.

Answer:

Kristie reports the following income from KKM during the current tax year: (A) $54,000 ordinary income; $9,000 charitable contribution.

Explanation:

From the provided data;

KKM's net ordinary income = $180,000 ($280,000 ordinary income - $80,000 of office expenses - $20,000 payment to Kaylyn).

Since the cash distributions to Kaylyn and Megan are not deductible.

Kristie's share of this income is equal to

30% of KKM's net ordinary income

= 30% 0f $180,000

= $54,000.

In addition, Kristie reports 30% of partnership charitable contribution

= 30% of $30,000

= $9,000 of her share of the partnership's charitable contribution.

Therefore, Kristie reports the following income from KKM during the current tax year: $54,000 ordinary income; $9,000 charitable contribution.

Answer:

Re-order time 1 month

Explanation:

EOQ = $\sqrt{2DS/H}$

D= 450 units

S=10

H=30%

EOQ= $\sqrt{2*450*10/6}$ = 39 units

Number of units D/EOQ = 450/39 = 12

re-order time = total period / Number of orders = 1 year /12

= 1 month

Answer:

Please see the calculation explanation below and the depreciation expense chart for all methods is attached.

Explanation:

1. STRAIGHT-LINE DEPRECIATION METHOD:

Depreciation Expense = (Total Cost - Residual Value) / Useful Life

Depreciation Expense = ($70,000 - $10,000) / 3 years

Depreciation Expense = $60,000 / 3 years

Depreciation Expense = $20,000 per year

2. DOUBLE DECLINING BALANCE DEPRECIATION METHOD:

Depreciation Expense Rate = (100% / Useful Life) x 2

Depreciation Expense Rate = (100% / 3) x 2

Depreciation Expense Rate = 66.67%

2013: 

Depreciation Expense = $70,000 x 66.67% = $46,667

2014: 

Depreciation Expense = ($70,000 - $46,667) x 66.67% = $15,556

Since the residual value is $10,000 and as per Double Declining Balance Method, the point at which Book Value is equal to the residual value, no depreciation is taken.

Depreciation Expense = (Total Cost - Residual Value) - (Accumulated Depreciation)

Depreciation Expense = ($70,000 - $10,000) - ($46,667)

Depreciation Expense = $13,333

2015: 

No Depreciation Expense for year 3, as Book value is already equal to residual value in year 2.

3. PER HOUR DEPRECIATION METHOD:

2013:

Depreciation Cost per hour = (Engine Hours in 2013 / Total Engine Hours) x (Total Cost - Residual Value)

Depreciation Cost per hour = (500 / 1,200) x ($70,000 - $10,000)

Depreciation Cost per hour = $25,000

2014: 

Depreciation Cost per hour = (Engine Hours in 2014 / Total Engine Hours) x (Total Cost - Residual Value)

Depreciation Cost per hour = (400 / 1,200) x ($70,000 - $10,000)

Depreciation Cost per hour = $20,000

2015: 

Depreciation Cost per hour = (Engine Hours in 2015 / Total Engine Hours) x (Total Cost - Residual Value)

Depreciation Cost per hour = (300 / 1,200) x ($70,000 - $10,000)

Depreciation Cost per hour = $15,000
