kotegsom [21]

Answer:

1. Was East Hill Home Healthcare Services organized as a sole proprietorship, a partnership, or a corporation?

East Hill Home Healthcare Services should be considered a closed corporation since there is a small number of stockholders and its shares are not traded in an open trade market.

2. During the current year, the records of the company were inadequate. You were asked to prepare the summary of the preceding transactions.

Since there is not enough room here, I used an excel spreadsheet.        

4. What amounts do you need? If some amount is missing, look at the attached PDF.

total assets = $870,000

total liabilities = $280,000

total equity = $590,000

current assets = $134,500

current liabilities = $100,000

5. Compute the current ratio for the current year

current ratio = current assets / current liabilities = $134,500 / $100,000 = 1.345

If Randy invests $15,000 at a 9% interest
WITCHER [35]

It will take 8.04 years for the initial investment of $15000 to become $30,000

What is the future value of an investment?

The future value of $15,000 invested now earning a rate of return of 9% per year is $30,000, it the future equivalent of an amount invested now when the invested amount has earned interest over a specific period of time.

The below future value formula of single cash flow can be used to determine the number of years it takes for the initial investment to double.

FV=PV*(1+r)^N

FV=future value=$30,000

PV=initial investment=$15,000

r=rate of return=9%

N=number of years it takes for the initial investment to double=unknown(assume it is X)

$30,000=$15000*(1+9%)^N

$30000/$15000=(1+9%)^N

2=1.09^N

take log  of both sides

ln(2)=N*ln(1.09)

N=ln(2)/ln(1.09)

N=8.04 years

In terms of the tax formula applicable to individual taxpayers, which of the following statements, if any, is correct?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. In arriving at taxable income, a taxpayer must choose between the standard deduction and itemized deductions.  

Explanation:

In tax law, the tax base is the magnitude that results from the measurement of the taxable event. It is defined as the dimension or magnitude of an element of the objective budget of the taxable event that is judged as determining the relative contributory capacity.

In tax legal relations, the taxable event shows the existence of an economic capacity in the subjects, but for the tax to be applied, this fact must be assessed in some way, usually in monetary units.

The tax base is ultimately the magnitude that is used in each tax to measure the economic capacity of the subject, such that it is reflected in ceilings.
