Answer:
c. The firm will make an additional $4200 in income per day if it sells taco shells instead of tortillas.
Explanation:
Tortilla daily revenue: $8000
Tortilla daily cost: $22500
Taco shell daily revenue: $26,700
Taco shell daily cost: $8000 + $4200 = 12200
Additional income if Taco Shells sold instead of Tortillas: $26,700 - 22,500 = $4200
Answer:
Puffin’s E & P after taking into account the distribution of the car is $6,000.
Explanation:
E & P will be decreased by the higher of the adjusted basis or the fair market value of the distributed property, net of any liabilities. The distribution losses will not be taken into consideration when determining E & P. Thus the current E & P of Puffin’s $30,000 is reduced by $24,000 ($30,000 basis of the car minus the liability amount). The remaining after the distribution current E & P will be $6,000.
Therefore, Puffin’s E & P after taking into account the distribution of the car is $6,000.
Answer:
D. $96,000
Explanation:
We will allocate the cost on maintenance by first stablishing a rate per maintenence hour:
As this is direct method we aren''t doing an allocation to other service department we directly allocate against production department A and B
total hours: 480 + 320 = 800
160,000 total cost /800 hours = 200 per hour
Department B hours: 480
allocate to department B: 480 x 200 = 96,000
Answer:
Basis in the tractor 78.000 and new trailer basis 30.000
Explanation:
The adjusted basis is referred to as the cost basis of the assets as reduced by the cost recovery amount including the depreciation at the point of sale. Alternatively, the adjusted basis can be termed as the unrealized cost basis of the assets. The formula for the adjusted basis is:
Adjusted basis = cost basis - Cost recovery deductions
The adjusted basis for B's tractor and trailer is calculated as follows:
Adjusted basis for tractor = Cost of tractor
=102.000 - 24.000
=78.000
Adjusted basis for new trailer = Cost of trailer
=30.000
