Answer:

1. How is this contribution treated on Richard's tax return?

Richard can deduct this donation as a qualified contribution to a charity.

2. Assuming his adjusted gross income is at least $50,000, Richard can deduct <u>$15,000</u> on his Schedule A.

Qualified contribution deductions of long term capital gains are limited to 30% of AGI, and in this case, Richard can deduct the full amount.

3. However, Richard may elect to use the 50 percent AGI limitation and deduct <u>$1,000</u>.

Richard can elect to deduct only the basis of the stock, but who likes to pay more taxes?

WP Corporation produces products X, Y, and Z from a single raw material input in a joint production process. Budgeted data for t
k0ka [10]

Answer:

<em>Product X and Z should be processed further because the additional sales revenue is greater that further processing cost which leads to a profit. </em>

<em>Product Y should not be processed further because doing so would lead to a loss</em>

Explanation:

WP Corporation should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.  

Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point (i.e $92,000) are irrelevant to the decision to process further .  

                                                                  X          Y             Z

Sales value at split of point                     23        24           25

Sales value after split off point              <u>  27</u>     <u>  27  </u>           <u>32</u>

Additional sales value                               4         3              7

Further processing cost                           <u>( 2)</u>      <u>( 4 ) </u>          <u>( 4)</u>

Net income?(loss)                                     2          (1 )             3

Product X and Z should be processed further because the additional sales revenue is greater that further processing cost, which leads to a profit.

The junior class at Summerfield High School sold a total of 375 tickets for their spring festival. The adult tickets sold for $7
katrin [286]

The number of student's ticket sold is 200.

Two equations can be gotten from the question:

a + b = 375 equation 1

7.5a + 4.5b = 2,212.50 equation 2

Where:

a = number of adult ticket sold

b = number of children's ticket sold

In order to determine the value of b, multiply equation 1 by 7.5

7.5a + 7.5b = 2812.50 equation 3

Subtract equation 2 from 3

3b = 600

Divide both sides by 3

b = 600 / 3

b = 200
