Answer:

A. $6,400

B. $240

C. $1,000,000

D. $30,000

Explanation:

Requirement A, C, and D:

Prizes and awards are taxable income for a taxpayer. Any awards or prizes won from the lottery or television should be added to the income. Therefore, the Winning lottery is a taxable income for Kerry, $1,000,000. Again, Receiving the award for scientific research is also taxable income for Deborah, $30,000.

The winning award for accomplishments is also a taxable income. So, receiving a $6,400 worth gift bag is a taxable income for Cheline.

Requirement B:

There is an exception if the award is for tangible property and a long-years of accomplishment. At that time, the taxpayers will be excluded from some part of the necessary amounts to be paid as tax. If it is not a qualified award, the exclusion will be $400. If it is qualified, the tax exclusion is 1,600. Since Jon received a gold watch for 25 years of service and the gift is not qualified, he has to pay tax for $(660 - 400) = $240.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

3.18%

Explanation:

Calculation for the annual increase in the price of the average house sold

We are suppose to use this formula FV = PV (1+r)^t but since we are looking for R the formula to use will be:

R = (FV / PV)^1/16– 1

Let note that 2016-2000 will give us 16 years

Where,

FV=$354,900

PV=$215,100

Let plug in the formula

R= ( $354,900/$215,100 )^1/8)16– 1

R=(1.6499)^1/16-1

R=1.0318-1

R=0.0318×100

R=3.18%

Therefore the annual increase in the price of the average house sold will be 3.18%
