Answer:
Option (e) is correct.
Explanation:
Taxable Income:
= Net income per book - municipal bond interest + deduction for business meals + deduction for a net capital loss + deduction for federal income taxes
= $100,000 - $4,000 + 50% of $5,000 + $5,000 + $22,000
= $125,500
Eliot Corp.'s current earnings and profits (Current E&P) for 2014:
= Taxable Income + municipal bond interest - deduction for federal income taxes - deduction for a net capital loss
= $125,500 + $4,000 - $22,000 - $5,000
= $102,500
Answer:
Date Account title Debit Credit
12/31/2019 Lease Receivable $175,934
Cost of Goods sold $120,000
Sales Revenue $175,934
Inventory $120,000
Date Account title Debit Credit
12/31/2019 Cash $40,800
Deposit Liability $40,800
The rental amount is constant and is made on the first day of the lease period so this is an annuity due.
As the collectability is probable, you need to find the present value of this lease:
= 40,800 * Present value of annuity due factor, 5 year, 8%
= 40,800 * 4.3121
= $175,933.68
= $175,934
