Answer: c. capital loss.

Explanation:

A capital loss refers to a scenario where the price of a security falls below the price at which it was purchased. This is what happened to the Alpha Industries stock above as the price dropped from $39 to $37 which led to a capital loss of $2.

The dividends paid seem to outweigh the capital loss but we cannot be certain of this unless we know the tax rate being applied to the dividends and because these are usually high, the after tax dividends might have been lower the capital loss of $2.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

no matter what happens to the price of entertainment, the CPI will still increase.

Explanation:

Year 2's CPI = (48 x 130%) + (32 x 125%) + $0 entertainment cost = 62.4 + 40 = 102.4

The price of cattle and housing has increased so much, that even if entertainment expenses simply disappear, the CPI will have increased by 2.4%

Sunland Co. at the end of 2017, its first year of operations, prepared a reconciliation between pretax financial income and taxa
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Deferred Tax Liability= $564,000

Explanation:

The question is to determine the deferred tax liability to recognize by Sunland Co. at the end of the year 2017.

Step 1 :

We determine what the Income tax expense is for the year

Income tax expense= Pretax financial income x Income Tax rate

Income tax expense= $1,410,000 x 0.30 = $423,000

Step 2:

Although we recognized receivables as well as instalmental sales for reporting purposes under the accrual method. However, these will be subject to tax when we decide to recognize it in the future.

As such Deferred tax liability = Future Tax Liability

Deferred Tax liability for Sunland Co= Instalmental Sales x Income tax expense

= $1,880,000 x 0.3= $564,000
