Answer:
1) $18,000
2) $0
Explanation:
1) The wage based limits in business applies only to taxpayers with taxable income in excess of $157,500 or excess of $315,000, if it is a joint return.
Now, in this case, Roquan's taxable income which is $100,000 is less than the wage limits of $157,500 earlier stated. This implies that it doesn't qualify for wage-based limits.
Therefore, from business practices, Roquan will likely deduct 20% of the net $90,000 which is $18,000 to serve as deduction for qualified business income.
2) We are told that Roquan's taxable income before the deduction for qualified business income is now $300,000. What this implies is that his law practice would be judged to be a trade business and he would therefore not be eligible for deduction of the qualified business income.
Thus, it's $0.
Answer:
$570
Explanation:
The computation of the interest deduction is shown below:
= Interest paid × number of months ÷ (total number of months in a year)
= $3,420 × 2 months ÷ 12 months
= $570
The interest which is deducted in year 0 under the cash method of accounting is $570
And, the two months is calculated from the November 1 to December 31
We simply apply the interest paid formula.
Answer:
$7,714
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of good sold under LIFO method is shown below
But before that following calculations need to be done
Goods sold = Beginning inventory + Purchases - Ending inventory
= 114 + (399 + 57) - 190
= 380 units
Now 380 units sold would include 57 units of July 22 purchases and balance i.e. (380-57) 323 units of July 7 purchases
So, cost of goods sold
= (57 × 22) + (323 ×20)
= $7,714
Answer:
A) The GAAP statement is based on cost function rather than cost behavior.
Explanation:
Income statements that follow GAAP rules categorizes expenses based on their business function: product, selling or administrative.
While cost behavior categorizes costs based on how they influence a company's activities: variable, fixed and mixed. When a manager wants to measure the impact of any decision he/she makes, they need to use this type of categorization. For example, if fixed costs increase, what is the new break even point? If variable costs decrease, how is the marginal cost affected?
<h3>In the given scenario unemployment rate is 10%
</h3>
Explanation:
In the given problem,
Number of People who are working is 90,000
Number of People who are not working but looking and available is 10,000
Unemployment rate = Percentage of the total labor force that is unemployed but actively looking for employment and ready to work.
Unemployment rate = ((Unemployed people * 100) / (Total people in an economy (Working + Available for work)))
Unemployment rate = ((10000 * 100) / (90000+10000))
Unemployment rate = (1000000 / 100000)
Hence, Unemployment rate = 10%
