Answer:
The amount recorded in the Land account is $61,200
Explanation:
The cost of acquisition/purchase of a landed asset includes all the normal, reasonable and necessary costs incurred in obtaining the land and getting it ready for use. These cost includes the price of the land, the legal fees, title fees, taxes, excavation costs etc. On the other hand, cost of improvements on the land are recorded on improvement on asset accounts, where depreciation is put in consideration when computing cost. This is separate from acquisition cost because, there is no depreciation on a land. The cost is calculated as follows:
purchase price = $ 45,000
broker's fees = $ 8,000
accrued taxes = $ 2,000
demolition = $ 2,700
grading = $ 1,500
excavation = $ 2,000
Total = $ 61,200
The last step in making a personal budget is to reduce expenses in flexible categories. The correct option among all the options given in the question is option "B". Under normal circumstances, a person cannot make the adding up all sources of income as the last step. Then the expenses will not get added. The flexible expenses are expenses that can always be reduce or are not important expenses. The basis of making the budget is to reduce those unnecessary expenses. So the last step should always be to find ways to reduce the flexible or unwanted expenses.
When the price of an inferior good falls, the substitution effect leads to an increase in the quantity purchased and the income effect leads to a decrease in the quantity purchased.
An inferior good is something consumers would purchase only if they had more income so if the price falls, customers are able to afford to use this product as a substitute to an item of lower price that they currently purchase.
Answer:
That is $2,000 loss
Explanation:
After the hurricane Oscar received $140,000 for his loss, the adjusted basis for his property was $130,000 so he had a gain of 140,000- 130,000=$10,000.
According to Sec. 1033(a)(2) since the new property that was built (the replacement) was similar we will recognise the amount received from the insurance company ($140,000) to the extent that it pays for the replacement property.
That is
Gain or loss = amount paid by insurance company- cost of replacement property
Gain or loss= 140,000- 142,000
Gain or loss= -$2,000
That is $2,000 loss
