Answer:

her recognized gain on the sale of her old principal residence is $193,000 and her basis in the inherited home is $600,000.

Explanation:

Recognized gain on sale of old house

= ($600,000 - $125000) - $30,000 - $2000

= $443,000

Paula's recognized gain = $443,000 - $250,000

                                         = $193,000

Her basis in the inherited home = $500,000 + $100,000

                                                      = $600,000

Therefore, her recognized gain on the sale of her old principal residence is $193,000 and her basis in the inherited home is $600,000.

What are the accounting differences between cash and receivables from the perspective of a buyer? A seller? How are these differ
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

From a buyer's perspective, a sale made on credit represents a liability. While a sale made on cash represents a decrease of current assets.

From a seller's perspective, a sale made on credit or cash increases current assets, but the possibility of a bad debt always exist, therefore, accounts receivables must be periodically adjusted due to bad debts.

If the seller or buyer uses accrual accounting system, the previous description holds, but if they use cash basis accounting, things change a lot. When use cash basis, transactions are recorded only when cash is exchanged, so accounts receivables do not actually increase assets (seller's perspective), and accounts payables do not increase liabilities (buyer's perspective).

Black market dealers are often legitimate businesses with questionable and illegal practices. (points : 2) true false
amm1812
 The Black Market is a series of dealers who can get you a product that has been repealed from stores, such as 2006 yellow Tide, which cleaned the products too good, forcing the company to take it off the market because they wanted to continue to sell products that they claim better than the last. The Black Market is illegal and if currently under high investigation by governments all over the world. So, if the Black Market practice itself is illegal and all actions taken while in the Black Market are as well, I think you can finalize your answer. Hope this helped!
