Answer:

Since Karen is a minor, she can receive up to $950 in unearned income per year without paying taxes or having to file a tax return.

Since she receives a larger amount $2,500 - $950 = $1,550, she must pay taxes for the extra amount depending on which type of account her parents opened for her.

  1. Karen's parents probably opened a 529 Education Savings Plan, and if that is the case, she doesn't need to pay any federal taxes.
  2. If Karen's parents opened her a custodial account, then she will have to pay taxes for the $1,550 above the $950 threshold. Minors are responsible for filing their own taxes or their parents can file taxes for them. If either Karen or her parents pay taxes, they should pay = $1,550 x 10% = $155

Minor company installs a machine in its factory at the beginning of the year at a cost of $135,000. the machine's useful life is
sveticcg [70]

To determine what the depreciation of an asset using straight line method, the formula to be used is:

(Initial cost of machine – salvage value) divided by estimated useful life


So in this problem:

Initial Cost - $135000

Salvage Value – $15000

Estimated Useful Life – 5 years

Plug that in the formula


Annual depreciation = ($135000 - $15000) / 5

= $120000/ 5

= $24,000


The first year depreciation for the machine is $24000 because the company bought it in the beginning of the year. (So there is no need to divide this by 12 months)

To record this:

Depreciation Expense $24000

During 2018, businesses may elect to immediately expense up to $__________ of qualified real property placed in service that yea
alex41 [277]

Answer:

$1 million

Explanation:

Section 179 deduction of the IRS code was enacted to help small business owners take depreciation deductions for certain assets ( capital expenditure I.e. the money spent on acquiring and maintaining fixed assets such as buildings and equipments ) in one year rather than continuous depreciation over a long period of time.

The new law increased the maximum deduction from $500,000 to $1 million.

For example: lets say you buy a computer for your office, under section 179 you can deduct the full cost of your computer in one year. This a very okay because the life span of your computer is short
