Answer:

option (B) 172,000

Explanation:

Amount for her loss of future income = $240,000

punitive damages = $160,000

Taxable income = $12,000

Now,

Christie must include in gross income the $160,000 of punitive damages received and the $12,000 for the previously deducted medical expenses. also,

Under tax benefit rule Medical expense recovery is included in gross.

Therefore,

Christie's Gross income in 2020 = Punitive damages + Taxes

= $160,000 + $12,000

= $172,000

Hence,

The correct answer is option (B) 172,000

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

$429.60 Favorable

Explanation:

Provided information,

Standard Hours for each product = 3 hours

Standard Cost per hour = $14.00

Actual hours used = 198

Actual output = 80 connectors

Standard hours for actual output = 80 \times 3 = 240 hours

Actual Rate = $14.80 per hour

Direct labor cost variance = Standard Cost - Actual Cost

Standard Cost = Standard hours \times Standard Rae

= 240 \times $14 = $3,360

Actual Cost = 198 \times $14.80 = $2,930.40

Variance = $3,360 - $2,930.40 = $429.60

Since actual cost is less than standard variance is favorable.

$429.60 Favorable
