Suppose an apartment complex converts to a condominium, so that the former renters are now owners of their housing units. Suppos

Lorico [155]

Answer:

GDP is likely to remain same as a result of this conversion.

Explanation:

GDP is the total value of goods & services, produced by an economy, during a given year.

It can be calculated by 2 methods

By Expenditure method : GDP = Private Final Capital Expenditure + Govt. Final Consumption Expenditure + Gross Domestic Capital Formation + Net Exports
By Income method : NDP = Compensation of Employees + Operating Surplus (Rent + Profit + Income) + Mixed Income

Given case - Converting a rented apartment into a resident owned condominium , with value of housing services = rent formerly paid :

This brings no change in the GDP, as : The apartment 'rent' previously paid was included in 'operating surplus' of national income, by Income method. And, the equal condominium value is now included in investment addition i.e 'Gross domestic capital formation' , by Income method.

Star Corp. reported pretax net income from continuing operations of $1,000,000. Tax depreciation exceeded book depreciation by $

anastassius [24]

Answer:

Star Corp

Pretax net income from continuing operations = $1,000,000

Add Accrued Vacation $50,000

Deduct additional Tax Depreciation $100,000

Deduct Dividend received deductions $150,000

Net Taxable Income = $800,000

Income Tax expenses = 21% x $800,000 = $168,000

Income tax Expense provision based on book Net income = 21% x $1,000,000 = $210,000

Income tax benefit = $168,000 minus $210,000 = $42,000 (benefit)

Deferred income tax expense =

Income tax Provision = $210,000

Less income tax expense = $168,000

Differed income tax (benefit) = $42,000

Reconciliation

Book Net income = $1,000,000

Tax rate = 21%

Tax expense provision = $210,000...(a)

Pretax net income from continuing operations = $1,000,000

Add Accrued Vacation $50,000

Deduct additional Tax Depreciation $100,000

Deduct Dividend received deductions $150,000

Taxable Net income (adjusted) = $800,000

Tax rate = 21%

Tax expense provision = $168,000......(b)

Difference (a) minus (b) = $42,000 . This is a benefit to the firm (star corp) because its actual tax liability is less than what it provided for because of net deductibles not accounted for in its income statement.
