Answer:

Hamlet

Hamlet can recognize a loss of $1,500 in 2020.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of shares in Vanity Corporation = 1,000 common stock

Period of stockholding = 2 years

Cost of investment = $4,000

Sales proceeds from shares = $2,500

Capital loss = $1,500

b) Hamlet can use the capital loss deduction of $1,500 to reduce his other capital gains of the similar term in the first instance.  Note that the capital loss is a long-term capital loss since the investment was held for two years.

The following inventory information was taken from the records of Kleinfeld Inc.: Historical cost $12,000 Replacement cost $7,00
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

the inventory should be recorded at $8,500

Explanation:

As we know that according to GAAP, the inventory should be recorded at a cost or net realizable value whichever is lower

So as per the question

Historical cost is $12,000

And, the net realizable value is

= Expected selling price - expected selling cost

= $9,000 - $500

= $8,500

So, the lower cost is $8,500

Hence, the inventory should be recorded at $8,500
