In January of the current year, Stan Signowski's U.S. employer assigned him to their Paris office. This year, he earned salary,

a cost-of-living allowance, a housing allowance, a home leave allowance that permits him to return home once each year, and an education allowance to pay for U.S. schooling for his son. Stan and his wife, Jennifer, have rented an apartment in Paris and paid French income taxes. What tax issues does Stan need to consider when preparing his tax return?

Answer:

Stan appears to satisfy the basic Sec. 911 exclusion requirements for his year of arrival since he will be physically present in France for at least 330 days during his year of arrival. The actual number days for which the exclusion can be claimed depends on the length of time he spent in the United States. The salary, cost-of-living allowance, housing allowance, home leave allowance, and education allowance all are excludable up to the Sec. 911 limitation (calculated on a daily basis). In addition, Stan can claim an exclusion for the housing cost amount minus the base amount (calculated on a daily basis). Both exclusions are denied for the portion of Stan's salary and allowances attributable to his time in the United States. The portion of his employment-related expenses and foreign taxes attributable to the excluded income are unable to be deducted or credited. The foreign-earned income exclusion and housing cost amount exclusion are both elected by claiming such amounts on Form 2555.

Not knowing the amount of the foreign income taxes, and other components of Stan's tax return, it is impossible to know whether Stan should elect out of the Sec. 911 exclusion. Stan may have spent sufficient number of days in the United States on his trip home to need to qualify for the foreign-earned income exclusion under the bona fide foreign resident rules. In such case, he will not qualify for the exclusion until the end of this second calendar year in France. The exclusion would then be available retroactively back to the date on which he established foreign residency status.

A process has low fixed costs and high variable costs. It is currently capacity-constrained. Will the impact of an efficiency im
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Small

Explanation:

Fixed costs are the costs that do not change when output level changes, while variable costs are costs that change as output quantity changes.

When a production process is capacity constrained, it implies that there is a factor that does not allow it to produce more output. Examples of such factors are minor bottlenecks, constrained designs and resources, and others.

A process is said to be efficient when it can avoid waste of resources in producing desired output.

Efficiency improvement therefore occurs when more output can be produced with less resources.

In the question, given that the process is currently capacity-constrained, efficiency improvement will result in producing more output at higher costs because of high variable costs despite that the process has low fixed costs.

As a result, the impact of an efficiency improvement will be small because producing more output will result in incurring higher cost due to high variable costs that change as quantity of output changes. That is, the impact of efficiency improvement will be small because high variable costs with low fixed cost will result in higher production cost.

g On July 1, Alton Co. issued an $60,500, 10%, 120-day note payable to Seller Co. Assume that the fiscal year of Alton Co. ends
irakobra [83]

Answer:

The interest expense is $521  

Explanation:

The amount of interest expense for the fiscal year is the interest expense of 31 days which ,in other words the interest incurred only in the month of July ,calculated thus:

interest expense=days in the month/360days*interest rate*loan amount

interest expense=31/360*10%*$60,500=$ 521  

The interest expense for the current fiscal year rounded to the nearest dollar amount is $ 521

Use the starting balance sheet and the list of changes to create an updated balance sheet and to answer the question.
anastassius [24]

Answer: $3,300,000

Explanation:

Accounting formula:

Assets = Equity + Liabilities

Total equity and liabilities on March 31 is:

= Beginning balance - decrease in liabilities + Increase in Equity

= 5,000,000 - 100,000 + 400,000

= $5,300,000

Assets therefore has to be $5,300,000 on the same date.

Assets = New cash balance + Other assets

5,300,000 = (2,200,000 - 200,000) + Other assets

Other assets = 5,300,000 - 2,000,000

= $3,300,000
