Answer:
Kristie reports the following income from KKM during the current tax year: (A) $54,000 ordinary income; $9,000 charitable contribution.
Explanation:
From the provided data;
KKM's net ordinary income = $180,000 ($280,000 ordinary income - $80,000 of office expenses - $20,000 payment to Kaylyn).
Since the cash distributions to Kaylyn and Megan are not deductible.
Kristie's share of this income is equal to
30% of KKM's net ordinary income
= 30% 0f $180,000
= $54,000.
In addition, Kristie reports 30% of partnership charitable contribution
= 30% of $30,000
= $9,000 of her share of the partnership's charitable contribution.
Therefore, Kristie reports the following income from KKM during the current tax year: $54,000 ordinary income; $9,000 charitable contribution.

Answer:
The yield to call for this bond is 9.30%
Explanation:
Yield to call
The rate of return bondholders receives on a callable bond until the call date is called Yield to call.
Now use the following formula to calculate the Yield to call
Yield to Call = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ ( F + P ) / 2 ]
Where
F = Face value = $1,000 ( Assumed )
C = Coupon Payment = Face value x Coupon rate = $1,000 x 10.4% = $104
P = Call price of the bond = Face value + Call Premium = $1,000 + $75 = $1,075
n = Numbers of years to call = 10 years
Placing vlaues in the formula
Yield to Call = [ $104 + ( $1,000 - $1,075 ) / 10 years ] / [ ( $1,000 + $1,075 ) / 2 ]
Yield to Call = 0.0930
Yield to Call = 9.30%
