Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

$9.6 million

Explanation:

The amount Laramie would record in its books of account in respect of the land acquisition cost is the sum of the cash paid now and the notes payable .

That effectively gives acquisition cost of $9.6 million ($2.9 million+$6.7 million).

The interest payable on the notes payable of $6.7 million would be treated as expense in the income statement of years 2021 and 2022 respectively without being added to the acquisition cost since it is a revenue expense and should not be capitalized.

Answer: NO, Northwest

Airlines can not recover lost credit tax, it has been forfeited.

Explanation:

What is a CREDIT TAX, this are grants given by government which is therefore used in replacing OLD APPLIANCES, and help tax payer reduce their total cost of housing unit.

As a result when due and over a year or more of request, it would be termed as unrecoverable.

The BOEING company, is an aviation company that manufactures Airplanes, jets and other airline Gadget, which are considered fast and reliable.

Boeing company airplanes and jetliners can fly 416 passenger within the range of 13,450kilometer, (8,360) miles.

The NORTHWEST AIRLINES, are in business with Boeing company and made several orders.

Due to the high expectance of getting a credit tax, on the investment they made on the JUMBO JETLINERS, from the boeing company, they put up a deadline, with an investment of $16 million

Now, due to TAX BREAK given to airlines and credits tax, the northwest wanted to use this medium to offset their cost and mitigate their future revenue and profit.

Since, the Boeing company failed in meeting up with the deadline made by the Northwest airlines which was to be as at DEC, 31st 1988.

Northwest airlines lost the credit tax they were to receive, on the planes they were expecting, and therefore decided to recover those lost credit tax from the Boeing company.

This is where the north airlines would request for a discount on the cost of the airplanes they invested on, or requiring a total refund because they couldn't meet their target.

Boeing company will definitely be at loss, due to the cost over head they encountered during production process, which they definitely won't agree to.

The credit tax has been forfeit, because its exceed more than a year of request and cannot be demanded for anytime in future.
