Answer: $6,000
Explanation:
When expenses such as this interest expense are for 12 months or more, the deduction will need to be evenly spread over the period that they apply to. As the loan was to be repaid in 24 months, the interest payment deductions should be evenly spread over 24 months.
= 12,000/24
= $500
That means that for Year 2, the relevant deduction will be for the 12 months in it;
= 500 * 12
= $6,000

Answer:
B) False: since it is still a closely held C corporation, it cannot reduce its ordinary income through passive losses. If it hadn't been a closely held C corporation then it could have made the deductions.
Explanation:
Passive losses are losses resulting from financial activities, i.e. investments in other corporations where the investor doesn't participate in.
Passive losses cannot offset ordinary income, they must be matched against passive gains only. If passive losses exceed passive gains, they can be carried forward without limitation.
The only exception applies to C corporations that are not;
- closely held corporations or
- personal service corporations.
Qualifying C corporations can actually deduct passive losses from certain ordinary income.
Closely held C Corporations are corporations where during the last 6 months, 50% or more of its stock is owned by 5 or fewer investors.
Solution:
Inventory 21,320 debit
A/P 21,320 credit
--to record purchase from Game Girl --
Inventory 360 debit
Cash 360 credit
--to record the freight-in--
A/P 1,560 debit
Inventory 1,560 credit
--to record returned goods to GameGirl--
A/P 19,760 debit
Inventory 395 credit
Cash 19,365 credit
--to record payment to GameGirl--
accounts receivables 17,360 debit
sales revenues 17,360 credit
COGS 8,406 debit

--to record sale and subsequent cost of the sale--
total amount of the purchase in dollars:
82 game devices x 260 dollars each = 21,320
six returned devices:
6 x 260 = 1,560
invoice balance: 21,320 - 1,560 = 19,760
discount because payment within the first ten days:
19,760 x 2% = 395
final value: 19,760 - 395 = 19,365
sale of 62 devices at 280 = 17,360
