Solution:
Barnes Corporation purchased 75 percent of Nobles’ common stock
During the year, Nobles reports net income of $40,000.
Hence, 75% of net income of Nobbles is attributable to Barnes Corporation.
Barnes reports for income from subsidiary prior to consolidation
= 40,000 x 75%
= $30,000
Answer:
(B) A noncurrent liability of $4,000
Explanation:
The non-current liability in respect of deferred tax shall be recognised in the accounts of Bren Co. as at December 31 as follows:
Deferred income tax liability related to non-current assets= $15,000
Deferred income tax asset related to non-current liability = ($3,000)
Deferred income tax asset related to current liability = ($8,000)
Deferred income tax liability to be recorded at year end = $4,000
So based on the above discussion the answer is (B) A noncurrent liability of $4,000
Answer:
8%
Explanation:
If the current quarterly dividend on preferred stock = $1.60, that means that the current yearly dividend = $1.60 x 4 quarters = $6.40
Since the yearly dividend = $6.40 and the current market price of preferred stock is $80, its expected rate of return = $6.40 / $80 = 8%
Answer:
(A) Half-year and (D) Half-year
Explanation:
MACRS stands for Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System and is the most commonly-used tax depreciation method .Without getting into too much detail, MACRS is accelerated depreciation that allows for a larger deduction while the asset is still new. By comparison, straight-line depreciation gives you the same deduction year after year over the asset's useful life. MACRS cannot be used for intangible property, nor can it be used to depreciate. MACRS convention determines the number of months for which you can claim depreciation during a partial year, either when you first placed the asset in service or when you disposed of it. The mid-month convention only applies to residential rental property, nonresidential real property, and railroad grading or tunnel bore. It simply means that you get a half month's worth of depreciation no matter when that asset was placed into (or taken from) service during that month, whether that was at the beginning, middle, or end of the month. The half-year convention works the same way but instead of the month it goes by the year. In other words, you'll get 6 months' depreciation if the asset was placed into service or disposed of during the year, no matter if it was in January or December.
