The financial reporting carrying amount of Johns-Hopper Company's only depreciable asset exceeded its tax basis by $750,000 at D
Sati [7]

Answer: Liability of $300,000

Explanation:

In the question above, what we have is a deferred tax liability, which could be explained as the amount accrued in taxes at a present time but payable in the future. The tax rate will not be based in the present tax rate. Thus is why we will not be using the 30% tax tate of 2018 in calculating the tax amount.

Tax rate = 40%

Exceeded tax basis = $750,000

0.4 × 750,000 = $300,000

Therefore, Johns-Hopper should report the deferred tax effect of this difference in its December 31, 2018, balance sheet as Liability of $300,000

The U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis​ (BEA) has recently adopted a new approach to calculate real GDP and real GDP growth to cor
pashok25 [27]

One of the features of the new approach is​ that, now BEA uses the geometric average of fixed weight indexes and uses two base years to calculate the growth rate of real GDP between two consecutive years.

Explanation:

In both actual and nominal GDP, the U.S. Economic Analysis Department results. It estimates the real United States. GDP is a fixed base year annual rate. Imports and international sales from American businesses and people are exempt.

GDP reflects the degree to which the economy generates production. Global warming is not generated and not part of GDP. The effect of environmental damage is not measured accurately. The loss should not be included in GDP and the calculation of environmental damage has not been accepted.
