A) On the 32,000 sale it will be considered a 18,000 gift to the buyer.
Because is above the 15,000 gift per person per year, it will trigger the gift tax.
B) 70,000 will generate a long-term capital gain of 20,000
C) gift of 5,000 it will not trigger the gift tax.
Explanation:

The capital gain or losses are considered using the adjusted basis.
Because Holly acquiredthe land for more than a year, it will be cosnidered a long-term capital gain if any.
Answer:
Cost of equity = 19.1
%
Explanation:
Cost of equity = required rate of return + flotation cost
The Capital assets pricing model would be used to determined the required rate of return
<em>The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c </em>
Using the CAPM , the required rate of return is given as follows:
E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)
E(r) - required return
β- Beta
Rm- Return on market
Rf- Risk-free rate
DATA
E(r) =? , Rf- 3%, Rm-14% , β- 1.1, flotation cost - 4%
E(r) = 3% + 1.1× (14% - 3%) = 15.1
%
Cost of equity = required rate of return + flotation cost
= 15.1
% + 4% = 19.1
%
Cost of equity = 19.1
%
Answer:
The beta of the new project is 1.475
Explanation:
The beta is the measure of systematic or market risk associated to a stock. The beta is used in the calculation of the required/expected rate of return under the CAPM model. The CAPM model uses the following formula to calculate the required/expected rate of return,
r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)
Plugging in the available variables, we can calculate the value of the beta.
0.154 = 0.036 + Beta * (0.116 - 0.036)
0.154 - 0.036 = Beta * 0.08
0.118 / 0.08 = Beta
Beta = 1.475
Answer: :a. Retrospectively
Explanation:
A change in depreciation method is a change in accounting policy and as such it would need to be accounted for retrospectively.
This means that it must be accounted for by going back to all periods where the change affects an entry and adjusting that entry for the change so that the accounting can be more accurate.
Answer:
C. price per unit times quantity sold.
Explanation:
Total revenue is defined as the revenues that are received from the sales of units of goods and services. It is price multiplied by quantity sold.
Total revenue can also be seen as price per unit times quantity is sold. For example if the unit price of a good is $2 the price per one unit is $2. When 20 units are sold the price per units sold is 20* $2= $40.
So times that a defined unit of goods is sold multiplied by price gives the total revenue.
