kiruha [24]

Answer:

A. $120,000 is subject to self-employment tax

B. Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax is $16,955

C. Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction is $21,500

D. The taxable income from her bookstore activity is $107,982

Explanation:

A. The income from normal business activities are eligible for self employment tax, therefore $120,000 is subject to self-employment tax.

B. To calculate Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax we have to make the following calculation:

Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax=($120,000×92.35%)×15.30%

Wilma’s 2018 self-employment tax=$16,955

C. Assuming $43,000 of W-2 wages and $90,000 unadjusted basis of tangible depreciable property, the computation of Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction would be as follows:

In this case would be 50% of W2 wage, therefore:

Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction=$43,000×50%=$21,500

D. The taxable income from her bookstore activity=Gross Income-50%self-employment tax-Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction

Gross Income=$120,000+$17,000+$960=$137,960

50%self-employment tax=$16,955×50%=$8,478

Wilma's allowable Section 199A deduction=$21,500

Therefore, The taxable income from her bookstore activity= $137,960-$8,478-$21,500=$107,982

Ed bought $2,000 in stock shares one week before the stock price dropped $10.00. If he had waited for the price setback, he coul
Zanzabum

Answer:

He bought 40 shares.

Explanation:

<em>Step 1: Determine the initial stock price</em>

Use the expression below to determine the total initial stock price as shown;

T=S×s

where;

T=total initial stock price

S=initial stock price per share

s=number of shares

In our case;

T=$2,000

S=x

s=unknown

replacing;

2,000=x×s

s=2,000/x

<em>Step 2: Determine the final stock price</em>

Use the expression below;

F=f×s2

where;

F=final stock price=$2,000

f=final stock price per stock=(x-10)

s2=final number of shares bought=(2,000/x)+10

replacing;

2,000=(x-10){(2,000/x)+10)

2,000=x(2,000/x)+(10 x)-10(2,000/x)-100

(2,000=2,000+10 x-20,000/x-100)x

2,000 x=2,000 x+10 x²-20,000-100 x

2,000 x-2000 x=10 x²-100 x-20,000

10 x²-100 x-20,000=0

solving quadratically;

x=[100±√{100²-(4×10×-20,000)}]/(2×10)

x={100±√(10,000+800,000)}/20

x=(100±900)/20

x=1,000/20=50

Initial stock price=$50

Number of shares bought=2,000/x=2,000/50=40

He bought 40 shares.

Blossom provides environmentally friendly lawn services for homeowners. Its operating costs are as follows.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Break-even point = 110 lawns & Break-even sales point = $8,800

Explanation:

Total fixed costs = Depreciation + Advertising + Insurance

Total fixed costs = 1,400 + 200 + 3,680

Total fixed costs = $5280/month

Total variable cost per unit = Weed + Direct labor + Fuel

Total variable cost per unit = 13 + 16 + 3

Total variable cost per unit = $32/lawn

Contribution margin ratio = (Sales per unit - variable cost per unit) / sales per unit

Contribution margin ratio = (80 - 32) / 80

Contribution margin ratio = 0.6

Contribution margin ratio = 60%

Break-even sales = Fixed costs / contribution margin ratio

Break-even sales = $5280 / 60%

Break-even sales = $8800

Break-even sales units = Break-even sales / sales per unit

Break-even sales units = 8800 / 80

Break-even sales units = 110 lawns

Break-even point = 110 lawns & Break-even sales point = $8,800
