Answer:

the last part of the question is missing, so I looked for it:

a. Randy received $2,200 of interest this year and no other investment income or expenses. His AGI is $75,000.

b. Randy had no investment income this year, and his AGI is $75,000.

a) Randy can deduct $31,575:

  • the mortgage interest is deductible
  • the car loan interest is not deductible
  • he can deduct $4,725 - $2,200 = $2,525 as investment interest expense

b) Randy can deduct $29,050

  • the mortgage interest is deductible
  • the car loan interest is not deductible
  • since he had no investment revenue, he cannot deduct any investment interest expense

Answer:

Projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.

Optimal Capital  is $5,750,000

Explanation:

The accept-or-reject rule, using the IRR method, is to acceptthe project if its Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is higher than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital(k) [r>k]. The project shall berejected if its internal rate of return is e lower than theWeighted Average Cost of Capital cost of (r<k)

                                 Accept if        r>k

                                 Reject if         r<k

                                   Mayaccept if r = k

If the Weighted Average Cost of Capitl (WACC) is less than IRRrate, then the project has positive NPV; if it is equal to IRR, theproject has a Zero NPV, and if it is greater than the IRR, theproject has negative NPV.

The projects should be accepted as the rate of return on theproject is higher than the WACC(10.8%) which means that theprojects will be profitable as the returns are higher than the costof the project (capital).  Considering this projects E,F and G should NOT be considered.

And considering the sizes the Optimal Capital  is $5,750,000 (the addition of sizes of all projects)

expeople1 [14]

Answer: $15,060

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Ben and Jerry were shareholders of Water Ice Inc., an S corp. On Jan. 1, 1998, Ben owned 40 shares and Jerry owned 60 shares.

We are further told that Ben sold his shares to Joe for $10,000 on March 31, 1998 and that the corp. reported a $50,000 loss at the end of 1998. The loss that will be allocated to Joe will be:

= $50,000 × 40% × 9/12

= $50,000 × 0.4 × 0.75

= $15,000

The closest figure we have close to that is $15,060 which is option B
