  • maximum allowable interest deduction of $2,500.
  • Interest Payment on educational loan of $1,400.

b.

Adjusted Gross Income $77,000

Formula

Educational Interest rate = (AGI - $65,000) / $15,000

Placing values in the formula

Educational Interest rate = ($77,000 - $65,000) / $15,000

Educational Interest rate = 1.13 = 0.8%

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

The price of the stock today is $54.61

Explanation:

The stock of this company pays a constant dividend for a defined period of time after equal intervals. Thus, it is just like an annuity. To calculate the price of such a stock, we will use the present value of annuity formula:

Assuming that the dividend is paid at the end of the period.

Present Value of Annuity = Dividend * [(1 - (1+r)^-n) / r]

Where,

  • r is the required rate of return
  • n is the number of years of annuity

The price of the stock today is,

P0 = 8.45 * [(1 - (1+0.13)^-15) / 0.13]

P0 = $54.607 rounded off to $54.61

Paul [167]

Answer:

$444,000

Explanation:

current earnings and profits = (taxable income - income taxes) - meals expense + tax exempt income = ($600,000 - $155,000) - $3,000 + $2,000 = $444,000

Disallowed expenses are expenses made by an individual or company that the IRS doesn't allow to be deducted, e.g. meals. Tax exempt income is income that is not taxed by the IRS, e.g. DRD includes at least 70% of dividends received.

Deferred gains or unearned revenues are considered a liability and are not included in the income statement.
