Answer:

Option ( b ) $57,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Net income = $300,000

W-2 wages = $120,000

Assets with unadjusted basis = $75,000

Taxable income before the QBI deduction = $285,000

Now,

The QBI deduction for 2019 will be given as 20% of the qualified income i.e the taxable income before the QBI deduction

Therefore,

The QBI deduction for 2019 = 20% of $285,000

= 0.20 × $285,000

= $57,000

Hence,

Option ( b ) $57,000

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

This question has a missing information. I have found the complete version and pasted it down below;

"Your neighbor offers you an investment opportunity, which will pay a single lump sum of S2,000 five years from today. The investment requires a single payment of <em>$1,500 today</em>. The return on the investment is % A. 4.195 B. 4.729 C. 5.361 D. 5.922 E. 6.961 "

Explanation:

This question requires you to find that discount rate given a single future cashflow. $2,000 is expected 5 years from today, hence the future value. $1,500 payment today is the dollar value today, hence the Present value.

Using a financial calculator, you will key in the following inputs;

Total duration; N = 5

Present value; PV = -1,500 (it's a cash outflow hence negative)

Recurring payment; PMT = 0

Future value; FV = 2,000

then find the rate by keying in CPT I/Y = 5.922%

Therefore, the return on the investment is 5.92%
