Answer: Option B

Explanation:  Centralization or centralization  is the mechanism by which an organization's operations, particularly those related to planning and policy-making, framing strategies and regulations, are consolidated within a specific geographic region unit and are handled by some for the individual employees within.

These employees are usually the top managers and executives working in the company and have authority to make decisions that can impact the company as a whole.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is B.

Corporation Q, a calendar year taxpayer, has incurred the following Section 1231 net gains and losses since its formation in 201
sp2606 [1]

Answer: $4,000 is ordinary income. No Capital gain

Explanation:

In 2017 and 2018, total Section 1231 losses are:

= 3,300 + 3,100

= $6,400

The Section 1231 gain in 2019 falls below the combined losses from the previous years of 2017 and 2018 so will not be counted as a capital gain as those losses are not yet being recaptured.

The entire $4,000 is therefore ordinary income.

Lamey Co. has an unlevered cost of capital of 10.9 percent, a tax rate of 35 percent, and expected earnings before interest and
mart [117]

Answer:

cost of equity is 11.60 %

Explanation:

Given data

cost of capital = 10.9 percent

tax rate = 35 percent

earnings = $21,800

bonds outstanding = $25,000

rate = 6 %

to find out

cost of equity

solution

we will find first value of unlevered

value of  unlevered  = earning ( 1 - tax rate ) / cost of capital

value of  unlevered  = 21800 ( 1 - 0.35 ) / 0.109 = $130000

so

value of  unlevered will be for firm = 130000 × bond outstanding × tax rate

value of  unlevered will be for firm = 130000 × 25000 × 35%

value of  unlevered will be for firm = $138750

so value of firm will be = bond outstanding + equity

so equity will be = 138750 - 25000

equity = $113750

so now

cost of equity will be = cost of capital + ( cost of capital - rate) (bonds / equity ) ( 1 - tax rate )

cost of equity will be = 10.9%+ ( 10.9 % - 6%) (25000 / 113750 ) ( 1-0.35)

so cost of equity = 11.60 %
