We pay taxes The money you pay in taxes goes to many places. In addition to paying the salaries of government workers, your tax dollars also help to support common resources, such as police and firefighters. Tax money helps to ensure the roads you travel on are safe and well-maintained. Taxes fund public libraries and parks.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

Effect on income= -$18,000

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Granfield Company has a piece of manufacturing equipment with a book value of $36,000 and a remaining useful life of four years. At the end of the four years, the equipment will have a zero salvage value. The market value of the equipment is currently $21,200. Granfield can purchase a new machine for $112,000 and receive $21,200 in return for trading in its old machine. The new machine will reduce variable manufacturing costs by $18,200 per year over the four-year life of the new machine.

Year 0= -112,000 + 21,200= -90,800

Year 1 to 4= 18,200*4= 72,800

Effect on income= -90,800 + 72,800= -18,000

When using the periodic system the physical inventory count is used to determine Select one: a. both the cost of the goods sold

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

a. both the cost of the goods sold and the cost of ending inventory.

Explanation:

The physical count is used in the periodic inventory system to calculate the amount of ending inventory. However the cost of goods sold can be derived from using the ending inventory count. Suppose we have ending inventory of 100 units and Purchases were 500 units Also there were no beginning inventory units so the Cost of goods Sold can be calculated as

Cost of Goods Sold= Beginning Inventory Add Purchases Less Ending Inventory

Cost of Goods Sold= 0 + 500- 100= 400

Mr. Boyd and Ms. Tuck decide to form a new corporation named BT Inc. Mr. Boyd transfers $10,000 cash and business inventory ($20

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

1. Mr Boyd's share = 400, Ms Tuck = 800

2. Mr Boyd's realised gain = $16,800, recognized gain = $0, basis = $13200

Ms Tuck's realized gain = $18500, gain recognized = 0, basis = $41500

Explanation:

Total share = $1200

Cash received from Mr Boyd = 10000

FMV from him = 20000

Total value = 30000

FMV of equipment from Ms Tuck = 60000

Total value from both of them = 60000 + 30000 = $90000

Number of share Mr Boyd is to receive = 1200x(30000/90000)

= 400

Number of share Ms Tuck is to receive

= 1200x(60000/90000)

= 800

Mr Boyd's gains

Cash received = 10000

FMV = 20000

Total = 30000

Adjusted basis = 3200

Total tax basis = 10000+3200

Gain realized = 30000-13200

= 16800

Gain realized = 0 because it is a non taxable exchange.

Mr Boyd's realised gain = $16800, recognised gain = $0, basis = $13200

Ms Tuck

FMV = 60000

Adjusted tax basis = 41500

Gain realized = 60000-41500

= 18500

Gain recognized = 0(non taxable exchange)

Ms Tuck's realized gain = $18500, recognized gain = $0, basis = $41500

the FMV basis of inventory = 20000

carryover basis = 3200

equipment basis FMV = 60000

carryover basis = 41500

note that no gain if equal to or more than 80 percent of the ownership of the stock in a non taxable exchange.
