Nady [450]

Answer:

Consider the following explanations and calculations

Explanation:

part 1

a)  KTZ sold an office building for $85,000 in cash. It originally bought the office building seven

years ago for $59,000 and has taken $14,000 in depreciation.-

Ans- Bookvalue on date of sale= $59000- $ 14000= $ 45000

Profit on sale of office building= $85000- $45000= $40000

As per section 1231, out of profit of $40,000, amount of $14000, i.e till the amount of depreciation will be an ordinary income and $26000 (40000-14000) will be considered capital income.

b)

KTZ sold another machine for $6,200. It originally purchased this machine six months ago for

$9,000 and has claimed $1,230 in depreciation expense against the asset.

Ans- As the asset was held for less than one year, the provision of section 1230 will not apply. Thus, the loss will be treated as ordinary loss. The amount of ordinary loss =cost-depreciation-salesprice=9000-1230-6200= $1570

c)

KTZ sold some of its inventory for $5,000 cash. This inventory had a basis of $8,000

Ans-Section 1230 will not be applied to inventories. Thus ordinary profit of $3000 (8000-3000) will be considered.

d)

KTZ held stock in XYZ Corp., which had a value of $19,000 at the beginning of the year. That

same stock had a value of $25,230 at the end of the year.

Ans- Stock is treated as lower of market value or cost, hence no treatment, willl be shown at $19000

e)

KTZ sold a machine that it used to make computerized dies for $26,300 cash. It originally bought

the machine for $16,200 three years ago and has taken $4,000 depreciation

Ans- Bookvalue of computer- 16200-4000= $12,200

Profit= 26300- 12200= $14100

As per section 1231, out of profit of $14,100, amount of $4000, i.e till the amount of depreciation will be an ordinary income and $10100 (14100-4000) will be considered capital income.

part 2

Net section 1231 gain=26,000 + 10100= $ $36100

Ordinary gain= 14000+3000+4000= $21000

Ordinary loss= $ 1570

Turner, a successful executive, is negotiating a compensation plan with his potential employer. The employer has offered to pay
zzz [600]

Answer:

b. If the employer accepts Turner's counteroffer, Turner will recognize as gross income $55,000 per month [($480,000 + $180,000)/12].

Explanation:

Given that

Turner annual salary = $600,000

Counteroffer to received a monthly salary = $40,000 or $480,000 annually

And, $180,000 bonus in 5 years at the age of 65

So the benefit he will be getting would be after accepting the counter offer is

= ($480,000 + $180,000) ÷ 12 months

= $660,000  ÷ 12 months

= $55,000

Yellow​ Press, Inc., buys paper in​ 1,500-pound rolls for printing. Annual demand is 3 comma 000 3,000 rolls. The cost per roll
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

59 orders

Explanation:

For computing the how many rolls should order at a time, first we have to determine the economic order quantity which is shown below:

The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

where,

Carrying cost = $875 × 20% = $175

And, other items values would remain the same

ow put these values to the above formula

So, the value would be equal to

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{3,000}\times \text{\$75}}{\text{\$175}}}

= 50.71 units

Now The number of orders would be equal to

= Annual demand ÷ economic order quantity

= $3,000 ÷ 50.71 units

= 59 orders
