Jennifer's pass-through business has total qualified business income of $100,000 and combined REIT dividends/PTP income of $20,0
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

B. $24,000

Explanation:

The pass-through deduction or the section 199A deduction as it is officially called is a reduction by 20 percent of your income tax provided by the new tax law set in place for the 2018 tax year. It is eligible for small business owners who run a pass-through business and whose tax income doesn't exceed $157,500 for singles and $315,000 for married couples.

To calculate the figure, you simply need to find 20% of your business profit. Jennifer has a taxable income of $150,000, which is less than the $157,500 limit to qualify for the pass-through deduction. So her pass through deduction becomes

20% of $100000 + $20,000

= 20/100 x $120,000

= $24,000

Note:  Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) dividend income and qualified Publicly Traded Partnership (PTP) income also are eligible for the pass-through deduction by law, hence the addition of the $20,000.

Ariel wants to compare the salaries for positions she was offered at two companies. What should she consider in this process?
german

Answer:

  • <em>She should research the cost of living of different locations to compare against the offered salaries.  </em>
  • <em>She should research the benefits included in each offer. </em>
  • <em>She should research the average salary of similar positions to see if the offers are fair. </em>

Explanation:

  • Remember, the cost living at the different locations is good basis to determine how much the actual value of he salary will be worth. For instance if location A pays her $5000 a month and her living expenses from the location takes about $4500, while location B pays her $3500 a month with a living expense of $1000, then she rather goes for location B she has more extra income.

  • Secondly, the benefits included in salaries is also to be considered. Does it includes medical insurance, transport allowance etc.?

  • Third the average industry pay level would also help Ariel know whether to accept any of the offers or not.

Trevor Company expects sales of Product W to be 60,000 units in April, 75,000 units in May, and 70,000 units in June. The compan
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

65000 units

Explanation:

Given:

Expected sales of product W in April  = 60000 units

Expected sales of product W in May  = 75000 units

Expected sales of product W in June  = 70000 units

Inventory in hand at the end of each month = 40% of the next month's expected sale

Inventory expected at the end of the April = 40% of the expected sales in May

or

Inventory expected at the end of the April = 0.4 × 75000 = 30000 units

Therefore, the total units required in April =  Expected sales of product W in April + Inventory expected at the end of the April

or

the total units required in April = 60000 + 30000 = 90000 units

Now,

Excessive production in March (inventory) = 25000 units

Hence, the units required to be produced in April = the total units required in April - Excessive production in March (inventory)

or

the units required to be produced in April = 90000 - 25000 = 65000 units
