Answer:

Taking his RMD in form of shares in a depressed market is a good investment decision. As the price will bound back and he will make more money.

Explanation:

When a traditional IRA holder gets to the age of 72 years he is entitled to required minimum distribution payments. This is not obtainable with other IRA plans.

RMD can be taken as cash or as shares. There is not tax difference between the two options.

Normally cash is better since it is easier to get access to and the beneficiary gets the exact dollar amount.

However when there is a depressed stock market, taking RMD in shares is a better option. Shares are bought and sold when prices appreciate.

This is a better option than selling shares at the low market price.

At September 1, 2017, Five-O Inc. reported retained earnings of $136,000. During the month, Five-O generated revenues of $20,000
Ahat [919]

Answer:

correct answer is $142,000 credit

Explanation:

given data

retained earnings = $136,000 credit

revenues = $20,000

expenses = $12,000

purchased equipment = $5,000

paid dividends = $2,000

solution

we get here first net income that is

net income = revenues  - expenses  ...........1

net income = $20,000 - $12,000

net income = $8,000

now we get here balance in retained earnings that is

balance of retained earning = Retained Earnings + net income - dividends ..........2

balance of retained earning = $136,000 + $8,000 - $2,000

balance of retained earning = $142,000  credit

 so correct answer is $142,000 credit

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Preferred dividend = $8,000

Common stock dividend = $22,000

The computation of dividend is shown below:-

Preferred dividend = Total shares × Total shares of Noncumulative, nonparticipating, preferred stock outstanding

= $100,000 × 0.08

= $8,000

Common stock dividend = Cash dividend - Preferred dividend

= $30,000 - 8,000

= $22,000

Therefore the Preferred dividend is $8,000 and Common stock dividend is $22,000

This year Mary received a $600 refund of state income taxes that she deducted on her tax return last year. Mary included a total
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

$600

Explanation:

If instead of itemizing, Mary had elected the standard deduction last year, then she wouldn't have to include any state income tax refund on her current gross income. But since she itemized her deductions and actually deducted these $600 from her gross income last year, she must include them in he current gross income.
