Answer:

United Disposal, General Manufacturing Corporation, Ace Trucking Company, and/or Investment Properties.

Explanation:

When the EPA cleans up site, it generally uses money from its superfund and it is allowed to recover the money from the entity that caused the pollution (either directly or indirectly), the owner of the premise or the user of the premise. I.e. they can recover the funds from anyone involved. The EPA will try to recover the funds based on several aspects including the financial position of the entities involved. E.g. if United Disposal, Ace Trucking Company and General Manufacturing Company filed for bankruptcy, the EPA will recover the funds from Investiture Properties even if they were not responsible for the pollution.

Bill and Brenda bought their home for $150,000. They made $50,000 of improvements. They sold the home for $450,000 and paid $30,
adell [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

Capital gains tax is a tax that is levied on the profit made from the sale of a non-inventory asset. The most common sources of capital gains are through the sale of bonds, precious metals, stocks, property, and real estate.

The IRS typically allows an exclusion of up to: $250,000 of capital gains on real estate for a single person and $500,000 of capital gains on real estate for a married couple who are filing jointly.

To find the amount on which they pay capital gains:

The adjusted basis is $200,000 which is:

Initial cost of buying the house for $150,000, plus cost of improvements $50,000.

The sales price of $450,000 minus the selling expenses which cost $30,000.

The amount realized is therefore:

$450,000 - $30,000 = $420,000.

Note: They will receive an exclusion of $500,000 because they are filing jointly. So Bill and Brenda will not pay any capital gains tax.
