Answer:

A. $80

B. $795

C. $0

Explanation:

Only expenses that can be directly attributed to the business are deductible.

Personal expenses will not be deductible.

A. Here the only deductible amount is the legal fees of $80. The speeding will not be charged to the business because it was as a result of personal negligence. The legal fees affect the business because the speeding related to a business asset.

B. Only the amount paid to reserve a spot will be deductible because it relates to expenses for the business to make profit. The money she spent on her children is a personal expense.

C. There is no deductible here. These activities were of a personal nature and in no way related to the operations of the business of operating the food truck.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Joyce cash distribution   = $262500

Explanation:

given data

Joyce capital = $50,000

Xi capital = $105,000

liabilities = $10,000

assets sold = $190,000

to find out

we consider Determine the amount received by Joyce as a final distribution from liquidation of the partnership

solution

we carrying value of non-cash asset prior to liquidation is

value of non-cash asset prior to liquidation = $50,0000 + $105,000 + $10,000

value of non-cash asset prior to liquidation =  $615000

so Profit on Liquidation  is = value of non-cash asset prior to liquidation - Sale of Asset

Profit on Liquidation  is = $615000 - $190,000

Profit on Liquidation  is = $ 425000

and here since

Joyce and Xi share income and losses equally

so Joyce share of profit will be

Joyce share of profit  = 50% × $ 425000

Joyce share of profit  = $212500

and

so Joyce cash distribution  will be

Joyce cash distribution  = Joyce share of profit + Joyce capital

Joyce cash distribution   = $212500 + $50,000

Joyce cash distribution   = $262500
