Answer:
$26800
Explanation:
Total cost to be capitalized for the assets
= 145500 + 6500 +12000
= $164000
Estimated useful life = 5 years
Salvage value = $30000
Using the straight-line method,
Annual Depreciation = (Cost - Salvage value)/ Number of years
= (164000 - 30000)/5
= 134000/5
= $26800
Answer:
Bob Katz and Sally Mander
Taxable Income for 2018:
= $78,200
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Total wages = $102,400
Gain from sale of stock = 5,200
Interest income = 100
Total income = $107,700
less total deductions = (29,500)
Taxable Income = $78,200
b) Bob Katz and Sally Mander will have taxable income of $78,200 when the appropriate rate of tax is applied and the tax liability obtained, then the $1,500 tax credit will be deducted before arriving at the tax liability due.
c) The short-term capital gain of $5,200 is taxed as ordinary income. Since it is held for less than a year, it will be included in the taxable income for that year and it follows the same tax brackets as ordinary income. On the other hand, the long-term capital gain of $13,000 will attract a tax rate of 0 percent for a taxable income of $78,200. Otherwise, it will attract a tax rate of 15 percent or 20 percent, depending on income level. This means that long-term capital gains tax rates are much lower than the ordinary income tax rate.
Pls type in english... Question not understandable
Answer:
Ten pounds of chicken to trade for at least <u>40</u> pounds of vegetables but not more than<u> 50</u> pounds of vegetables
Explanation:
Vegetables Chicken Trade Off Ratio
John 40 10 4:1 (40/10) or 1:0.25 (10/40)
George 25 5 5:1 (25/5) or 1:0.20 (5/25)
John has comparative advantage in Chicken and George has comparative advantage in Veggies because :
- John's chicken opportunity cost, in veggies < George (4<5). George's veggies opportunity cost, in chicken < John (0.20<0.25).
- George is more (5X) productive in veggies than chicken, than John (4X). John is less unproductive in chicken than veggies (1/4th), compared to George (1/5th).
So, John will sell Chicken to George & George will sell veggies to John. Gains from trade are when each get trade ratio better than their their own trade off ratio.
- It implies: John gets >' 4 pounds veggies per chicken pound' and George gets > '0.20 pound chicken per veggie pound'.
- Unitary method:- '1chicken : 4veggies' = '10chickens : 40veggies' and '0.20chicken : 1veggie' = '10chickens : 50 veggies' .
