Ann [662]

Answer:

$33,000

Explanation:

The daily sales for a particular week is given as follows: $89,000, $75,000, $98,000, $66,000, $99,000

Range can be defined as the difference between the highest value and the lowest value within a particular set of number

From the question above;

The highest value is $99,000

The lowest value is $66,000

Therefore, the range for the daily sales for the week can be calculated as follows

Range= Highest value-Lowest value

= $99,000-$66,000

= $33,000

Hence the range is $33,000

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

A. $191,818

B. $303

C. Loss; $11,515

Explanation:

A. Calculation to determine what The adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 is

Cost of asset $200,000

Less Greater of allowed and allowable cost recovery:

2018 $910

2019 $7,272 ($8,182)

($910+$7,272=$81,82)

Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 $191,818

($200,000-$8,182)

Therefore the Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 will be $191,818

B. Calculation to determine what The cost recovery deduction for 2020 is

Cost recovery deduction for 2020= ($200,000 x .03636 x 0.5 / 12)

Cost recovery deduction for 2020=$303

Therefore The Cost recovery deduction for 2020 is $303

C. Calculation to determine what The____on the sale of the asset in 2020 is

Based on the information given we would be using 0.3636 as the percentage for 27.5-year assets.

Cost of asset $200,000

Less Greater of allowed and allowable cost recovery:

2018 $910

2019 $7,272 ($8,182)

($910+$7,272=$81,82)

Adjusted basis of the asset at the end of 2019 $191,818

($200,000-$8,182)

Less Cost recovery for 2020 $303

($200,000 * .03636 * 0.5 / 12)

Basis on date of sale $191,515

($191,818-$303)

Loss on sale of asset ($11,515)

($180,000 – $191,515)

Therefore The LOSS on the sale of the asset in 2020 is $11,515

The following does not describe the matching principle
Marizza181 [45]

Answer: The correct answer is c. Expenses are reported on the income statement when cash is paid.

Explanation: Matching principle states that expenses are matched with the related revenue in the same period, that is, expenses incurred to generate related revenue are recorded during the same time interval the related revenue is recorded in order to show the true and fair position of the profitability of the company.

Based on the above definition, <u>only option C does not align with the matching principle</u><u> </u>because expenses should be recorded in the income statement when incurred and NOT when cash is paid. If it is recorded when cash is paid, it means <em>cash basis of accounting</em> is being applied.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The Rex’s gross income from the partnership in 2019 and 2020 is $1,20,000 and $1,80,000 respectively

Explanation:

The computation of the gross income for each year is shown below:

In 2019:

Gross income = Taxable income × percentage of interest in profits

                       = $400,000 × 30%

                       = $1,20,000

In 2020:

Gross income = Taxable income × percentage of interest in profits

                       = $600,000 × 30%

                       = $1,80,000

The withdrawn amount is not consider for computing the gross income. So, we ignored it
