Eric and Katie, who are married, jointly own a house in which they have resided for the past 17 years. They sell the house for $

Elodia [21]

Answer:

C) $0 $285,000

Explanation:

The §121 exclusion establishes that homeowners can exclude from their capital gains taxes the sale of their property for a maximum of $250,000 gain (or $500,000 for joint filers) if they meet two criteria:

they owned the property for at last 5 years
they use the property as main residence for at least 2 years (they can aggregate time periods).

So if Eric and Katie use the §121 exclusion they wouldn't pay any capital gains tax ($500,000 is higher than $375,000).

If they decide to forgo the §121 exclusion, then they will have to pay taxes for a gain of:

capital gain = net sale price - asst basis

capital gain = ($375,000 - $10,000) - $80,000 = $365,000 - $80,000 = $285,000

The following table shows a tool and die company's quarterly sales for the current year. What are sales for the first quarter of

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Quarter 1, Sales 88. seasonal relatives 1.1

Deseasonalized = 88 / 1.1 = 80

Quarter 2, Sales 99. seasonal relatives 0.99

Deseasonalized = 99 / 0.99 = 100

Trend = 80+(100-80) = 100

Reseasonalized = 100*0.99 = 99

Quarter 3, Sales 108, seasonal relatives 0.9

Deseasonalized = 108 / 0.9 = 120

Trend = 1000+ (120-100) = 120

Reseasonalized = 1120*0.9 = 108

Quarter 4, Sales 141.4, seasonal relatives 1.01

Deseasonalized = 141.1 / 1.01 = 140

Trend = 120+ (140-120) = 140

Reseasonalized = 140*1.01 = 141.4

Now to get the Naive trend forecast for the next year first quarter, we say

140 + (140 - 120) = 160

Also to get the Re-seasonalized forecast for the next year first quarter, we say

160*1.1 = 176
