Answer:

a. Incremental costs = (Direct materials + Direct labor) * 20%

Incremental costs = ($26 + $28) * 20%

Incremental costs = $54 * 20%

Incremental costs = $10.8

Incremental selling price = $72 - $64.8 = $7.2

Incremental profit (loss) = Incremental selling price - Incremental costs = $7.2 - $10.8 = $(3.6)

b. No. As there is Incremental loss, it should not be processed further

KTZ sold another machine for $6,200. It originally purchased this machine six months ago for

$9,000 and has claimed $1,230 in depreciation expense against the asset.

Ans- As the asset was held for less than one year, the provision of section 1230 will not apply. Thus, the loss will be treated as ordinary loss. The amount of ordinary loss =cost-depreciation-salesprice=9000-1230-6200= $1570

c)

KTZ sold some of its inventory for $5,000 cash. This inventory had a basis of $8,000

same stock had a value of $25,230 at the end of the year.

the machine for $16,200 three years ago and has taken $4,000 depreciation

Ans- Bookvalue of computer- 16200-4000= $12,200

Profit= 26300- 12200= $14100

As per section 1231, out of profit of $14,100, amount of $4000, i.e till the amount of depreciation will be an ordinary income and $10100 (14100-4000) will be considered capital income.

part 2

Net section 1231 gain=26,000 + 10100= $ $36100

Ordinary gain= 14000+3000+4000= $21000
