Answer:

The amount of loss that Albert can claim in 2020 is limited to:

= $3,000.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

2017 Purchase cost of the tract of land = $140,000

Speculated price of the land = $200,000

Highway engineers-determined value = $180,000

2020 Value of the land after the project was abandoned = $100,000

The total amount of capital loss = $40,000 ($140,000 - $100,000)

The total amount of capital loss that Albert can claim in any tax year is limited to $3,000.  The remaining amount of the capitalloss that he incurred in 2020 will be carried forward.

Select the correct answer.
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The action being used here is the psychological pricing action.

It tends to appeal to the buying reasoning of the buyer. In this system of pricing, the prices of goods are intentionally placed using odd figures. This is because, it is believed that setting prices at these type of price ranges have a psychological effect on the consumer

The 0.01 cent difference would appeal to the psychological thinking of the consumer, thereby making him purchase the goods which in fact is same price when looked at technically

All in all, the pricing system is looking to make the buyer take a decision which will favor the seller as the fractional bits taken off the price would appear to the customer as if he’s purchasing at a lesser price which is technically not so

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The correct answer is Quitclaim deed.

Explanation:

A quitclaim deed is an executable document legally used to transfer property rights without having to provide any guarantee for the beneficiary or any that the assignor still owns the property. Basically, the transferor of a deed of resignation says: "I transfer my property rights, if I have any, to the beneficiary." With the minimal assistance of a lawyer, executing a waiver deed to transfer property rights can be simple and brief.

ki77a [65]

Answer:

Assets= 15,000

Liabilities= 10,000

Owner's equity= 5,000

Explanation:

When he invests 5,000 of his own money that 5,000 is an asset as it is cash and the 10,000 he borrows is also an asset as it is cash. The liabilities are 10,000 as he has to pay 10,000 back and it is a loan so it is a liability also.

The owners equity is 5,000 as he invested 5,000 of his own money in the business and that is owners equity.

sergij07 [2.7K]

The error of Naomi is that she included the receipts of interest, receipts of dividends, and proceeds from planned sales of plant assets in the cash receipts section. This section would only include the cash sales and collection of accounts receivable with the forecasted sales per month of the company. As a result of this error, the cash receipts would be too high.
