Answer:

David's basis on the $5,000 bond purchased is:

C. $5,000.

Explanation:

The following is a partially completed lower section of a departmental expense allocation spreadsheet for Brickland. It reports
blagie [28]

Answer:

The correct option is b. $8,100

Explanation:

Since the question was asked about the allocation of maintenance department expense to assembly and the maintenance department expense is based on the square footage.

So, the following equation should be used which is shown below:

= Maintenance department expense × assembly square foot space ÷ total sum of square foot space

where,

Maintenance department expense is $18,000

Assembly square footage is 2,700

And, the total sum of square foot space equals to

=  Fabrication square foot space + assembly square foot space

= 3,300 + 2,700

= 6,000

Now, put these values on the above equation.

So, the value would be equals to

= $18,000 × 2,700 ÷ 6,000

= $18,000 × 0.45

= $8,100

The other cost is irrelevant. Thus, it is ignored while computation.

Hence, the amount of Maintenance department expense to be allocated to Assembly is $8,100

Therefore, the correct option is b. $8,100

A beneficiary acquired stock from a decedent. The stock's fair market value at the date of the decedent's death was $500,000. Th
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Beneficiary recognized gain is $510000.

Explanation:

The amount paid by the decedent for the stock = $280000

The market value of the stock at the time of death = $500000

The selling price or the amount received by the beneficiary by the sell of stock = $510000

Since the recognized gain is calculated by subtracting the amount paid by the person to buy the stock from the amount that he receives from the sale of stock. But in this case, the beneficiary pays zero for the stock but gets all the money after selling.

Beneficiary recognized gain = amount received from the sell – the amount paid by the beneficiary.

= $510000 – 0

= $510000
