Answer:

I used the 2020 standard deduction and income tax brackets to calculate the answer.

a. What is the amount of Rick’s after-tax compensation (ignore payroll taxes) and his income tax liability?

Rick's gross income $141,800

- standard deduction $12,400

taxable income $129,400

income taxes = (10% x $9,875) + (12% x $30,250) + (22% x $45,400) + (24% x $43,875) = $25,135.50

after tax income = $141,800 - $25,135.50 = $116,664.50

b. Suppose Rick receives a competing job offer of $102,500 in cash compensation and nontaxable (excluded) benefits worth $4,900.

Rick's gross income $102,500

- standard deduction $12,400

taxable income $90,100

income taxes = (10% x $9,875) + (12% x $30,250) + (22% x $45,400) + (24% x $4,575) = $15,703.50

after tax income = $102,500 - $15,703.50 + $4,900 = $91,696.50

Indiana Co. bega n a construction project in 2018 with a contract price of $150 million to receive when the project completed in
Liula [17]

Answer: C) Recognized $9 million gross profit on the project in 2018.

Explanation:

Duration of construction project from 2018 to 2020 = 3 years

Cost incurred by Indiana co. in 2018 = $36 million

Estimated additional cost for the remainder of the project = $84 million

Total cost to be incurred over the duration of the project = $36 million + $84 million = $120 million

To calculate the percentage of the project completed, we use the cost figures;

Cost incurred so far (in 2018) ÷ Total cost to be incurred × 100

36,000,000/ 120,000,000 × 100 = 30%

Total revenue from contract (which is the contract price) = $150 million

Indiana Co. recognizes revenue according to the percentage of the project completed. Therefore, revenue recognized after 30% of the project is completed (which is the revenue for 2018) = 30% of $150,000,000

Revenue for 2018 = 30/100 × 150,000,000 = $45,000,000

Profit recognized on the project in 2018 = Revenue for 2018 - Cost incurred in 2018

Profit = $45,000,000 - $36,000,000

Gross profit recognized in 2018 = $9,000,000
