ale4655 [162]

Answer:

c. $215,000

Explanation:

The computation of the amount charged to income is shown below:

But before that first we have to determine the book value as on Jan 2024 which is

Total patent cost

= $200,000 + $50,000

= $250,000

Amortized cost till year 2024 is

= ($250,000 ÷ 10 years) × 3 years

= $75,000

The three years is counted from 2021 to 2024

Now

Book value on Jan 2024 is

= $250,000 - $75,000

= $175,000

So,

Amount charged to income  is

= $175,000 + $40,000

Butoxors [25]

Hawkins Inc.

For 2017, the amount of income taxes payable for Hawkins Inc. is:

= $572,600.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

2017 tax rate = 35%

Pre-tax accounting income =   $1,800,000

2018 Rent from Barrett Co.            64,000

Less:

Exempt Municipal bond income  (80,000)

Tax Depreciation (in excess of

 book depreciation)                     (40,000)

2018 Installment sales revenue (108,000)

Adjusted taxable income       $1,636,000

Income tax (35%)                        572,600 (35% of $1,636,000)

Tax expense (provision)             630,000 (35% of $1,800,000)

b) The difference between the income tax payable of $572,600 and the provision for income tax expense for the year of $630,000 is due to temporary differences and exempt Municipal bond income.  The temporary differences are caused by the different timings of the recognition of revenue and expenses under the tax jurisdiction and the GAAP accounting.

gavmur [86]

Answer:

(A) Payback period for the machine= 3.5 years

(B) Simple rate of return for the machine= 87.5%

Explanation:

Alesu corporation is considering purchasing a machine that would cost $283,850

The useful life is 5 years

The machine would reduce cash operating costs by $81,100 per year

The salvage value is $107,100

(A) The payback period for the machine can be calculated as follows

= cost/amount of cash flow

= 283,850/81,100

= 3.5 years

(B) The simple rate of return for the machine can be calculated as follows

First we calculate the depreciation expense

= 283,850-107,100/5

= 176,750/5

= 35,350

Annual incremental income= cost savings -depreciation expenses

= 283,850-35,350

= 248,500

Simple rate of return = annual incremental income/cost × 100

= 248,500/283,850 × 100

= 0.875 × 100

= 87.5%
