In return, Charlotte is to draft a will for Joe's father. The gazebo normally would cost $3000, which is approximately what Charlotte would charge for drafting the will. Joe builds the gazebo in time for Christmas. Charlotte drafts the will and delivers it to Joe the following January.

Answer:

a. Both Charlotte and Joe have received taxable income with a difference in timing. Charlotte will recognize the income in December while Joe will recognize it in January

b. Ed has received taxable income with a difference in timing. It will be recognized in 2016

c. Dayo has received taxable income with a difference in timing. It will be recognized during the year

d. John has received taxable income for the year.

Explanation:

Lets look at each option and understand how taxable income is determined and how the timing will be determined as well.

a. Through the deal that Charlotte made with Joe, each will receive some form of remuneration that will be considered as income. For Joe, the income is in the form of a will which would generally cost him $3000. For Charlotte, it the income is in the form of a gazebo with the same value of $3000. The income will be recognized on the basis of when it is received by each taxpayer. So far Charlotte, the gazebo was received in December, therefore, the income will be recorded in this year only. Joe on the other hand, received his income in January, therefore, he will record the income next year.

b. In December 2015, the value of the stock increases by $600. However, this capital gain is not recognized as income since unrecognized income such as this is not classified as taxable income for the year. Since Ed continues to possess ownership of the stock in December, no income will be recognized in December. Now, Ed sells the stock in March of 2016 and recorded a gain of $500. The capital that he recovered will not be taxed under the law. The gain that he realized on sale of $500 will count towards taxable income for the year 2016.

c. Dayo will not include the bonus as taxable income for the year. For income to be recorded as taxable income, the associated <em>value</em> needs to be received by the taxpayer. As far as Dayo is concerned, she had not received the value of the bonus in December. The check was lost by the mail room which was an act completely beyond Dayo's control. Had Dayo misplaced the check herself she would have had to recognize the income in December. In this case, however, the taxable income will be recognized in January next year.

d. Two things will happen here. First, John will have to record income received from his drug operations as taxable. Even though the nature of the business is illegal, it is included under the umbrella of income. The taxable income from the drug operations would be to the tune of $60,000 which is the profit. Now as far as unemployment benefits are concerned, they are considered as a substitute for income that a taxpayer may earn from other sources. They are tax deductible up to a certain amount but some of it will be considered taxable. Therefore, both incomes will be recorded as taxable income in the current year.

If Congress ends an investment tax credit that used to subsidize domestic investment, how would this affect the market for loana
marin [14]

Answer: Demand will fall, Interest rates will fall

Explanation:

The investment tax credit would have encouraged more companies to seek loanable funds in order to embark on investment opportunities because they would be taxed less. This increase in demand in the market for loanable funds would have led to rates rising to keep up with demand.

If Congress were to end this credit, the incentive to invest and avoid tax would be gone. Companies would therefore demand less loanable funds and with this drop in demand there will be a drop in interest rates as well to entice people to borrow at the lower rates.

        cash                         18,270 credit

-- to record December 31st, 2021--

Explanation:

First, we solve for the proceeds from the bonds payable:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 26,100 (435,000 x 12% / 2)

time 8 ( 4 years x 2)

yield to maturity  0.04 ( 8% / 2)

26100 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-8} }{0.04} = PV\\

PV $175,724.6412

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   435,000.00

time   8.00

rate  0.04

\frac{435000}{(1 + 0.04)^{8} } = PV  

PV   317,850.24

PV c $175,724.6412

PV m  $317,850.2392

Total $493,574.8804

We now build the amortization schedule.

We take this value, we multiply by the interest rate and then, solve for amortization and ending carrying value.

<u>To record the redemption:</u>

accrued interest:

435,000 x 0.12 x 4/12 (months from June to oct) = 17,400

premium:

480,606.6 - 435,000 = 45,606.6

proportional of premium:

45,606 / 435,000 x 130,500 = 13.681,98

we now solve for the gain/loss on redemption:

130,500 + 13,681.98 + 17,400 = 161.581,9 value redeem

                                      for cash 136,500

gain on redemption 25.081,98

bonds payable    130,500.00 debit

premium on bp       13,681.98 debit

interest expense    17,400.00 debit

      gain on redemption           25,081.98 credit

       cash                                 136,500.00 credit

Now, we solve for Dec 31st, 2021 entry.

bonds payable: 435,000 - 130,500 = 304,500

premium: 45,606 - 13,681.98 = 31.924,02

interest expense:

(304,500 + 31,924.02) x 0.04 = 13,456.96

cash outlay:

304,500 x 0.06 = 18,270

amortization 18,270 - 13,456.96 = 4,813.04
