Answer:

a) Product G should be produced and sold

b) Net financial advantage      $80

Explanation:

<em>A company should process further a product if the additional revenue from the split-off point is greater than than the further processing cost.  </em>

<em>Also note that all cost incurred up to the split-off point are irrelevant to the decision to process further .  </em>

                                                                                            $

Revenue after split-off point  

($9×  40 litres)                                                                 360

Revenue at the slit of point  

($4 ×   40)                                                                        <u> (160)</u>

Additional income from further processing                  200

Further processing cost ($3× 40)                                  <u>(120)</u>

Incremental income from further processing                <u> 80</u>

Incremental income from further processing = $80

a) The product F should be processed further and sold as product G. Doing so would increase the net income by $80.

b) Net advantage                                               $80

LO 8.5When might an unfavorable variance be a good outcome?
ivolga24 [154]

Answer: An unfavorable variance can be used to detect a drop in estimated income early, and then solutions to the challenge can be identified.

Explanation:

An unfavorable variance is the difference between a company's projected expectation and the actual outcome of a financial activity of the company, where the actual outcome is less favorable than the projected expectation.

The information from an unfavorable variance can help alert a company to a negative outcome early, and the company's leadership can then find ways of solving the cause of the negative outcome.

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. Provision of long term capital gain as An Individual.

Long-term capital gain of $5,000 in 2017 is taxable in 2017 as a longterm capital gain @15%

And long term capital loss of $10,000 in 2018 is either sett off to the capital gain or capital loss upto $3,000 can be settoff from normal income above this limit can be carry forword for next year.

Three maximum federal income tax rates apply to most types of net long-term

capital gains income in tax year 2018:

1. 0 percent for taxpayers in the 10 percent or 15 percent bracket for ordinary income (under $73,800 for married    joint filers)

2. 15 percent for taxpayers above the 15 percent bracket but below the 39.6 percent bracket (from $73,800 to $457,600 for married joint filers)

3. 20 percent for taxpayers in the top 39.6 percent bracket ($457,600 or higher for married joint filers)

B. Provision of long term capital gain as An C corporation.

C corporation deduct capital loss upto theire capital gain.

If in any tax year apital loss exceed capital gain than it can not be deduct from other income of same year.

Therefore loss of $10,000 can be carry forward for next year.

C. Provision of long term capital gain as An S corportation.

S corporations are pass-through entities, which means that the company itself does not pay taxes on the sale of its assets. Rather, the income from the sale of its assets passes through to the shareholder, who is responsible for paying taxes.
