                             NPV              $346,465                                    -$7510

IRR can be calculated by using the following formula:

IRR = R at lower %age  + (R at Higher %age - R at Lower %age) * NPV at lower Percentage / (NPV at Higher %age - NPV at Lower %age)

Now by putting values, we have:

IRR = 14%   +  (20% - 14%)  *  346,465 / (346,465 +  7510)

IRR = 14%   +  5.8%  = 19.8%

<u>Part 3.</u>

Now by putting values, we have:

Payback Period = Initial Investment / Cash flow Per Period

Payback Period = $2,400,000 / $800,000  =  3 Years

<u>Part 4.</u>

As we know that:

Simple Rate Of Return = Net operating income ÷ Initial investment

Now by putting values, we have:

Simple Rate Of Return = $320,000 / $2,400,000 = 13.33%

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

cash 40,000 debit

  note payable 40,000 credit

--to record signing of note----

interest expense 300 debit

     interest payable    300 credit

--to record accrued interest----

note payable  40,000 debit

interest payable   300 debit

interest expense  600 debit

   cash                            40,900 credit

--to record honor of the note---

Explanation:

when signing the note we receive the cash and delcare the liability

at December 31th

we recognzie the accrued interest: for the month

we need to convert the annual rate to monthly: 0.09/12 = 0.0075

40,000 x 0.0075 = 300

at payment of the note, we write-off the note

we pay the full interest:

300 per month x 3 month = 900

we already accrued one so the expense will be for 600

Campbell, a single taxpayer, earns $400,000 in taxable income and $2,000 in interest from an investment in State of New York bon
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: Campbell will owe $115,858.25 in federal income tax this year computed as follows:

$115,858.25= $45,353.75+ 33% x ($400,000 - $186,350)).

Campbell's average tax rate is 28.96 percent.

Average Tax Rate = TotalTax / TaxableIncome = $115,858.25 / $400,000 = 28.96

Campbell's effective tax rate is 28.82 percent.

Effective tax rate = TotalTax / TotalIncome = $115,858.25 / ($400,000 + $2000) = 28.82

Campbell is currently in the 33 percent tax rate bracket. Her marginal tax rate on deductions up to $213,650 will be 33 percent. However, her marginal tax rate on the next $5,100 of income will be 33%, and income earned over $405,100 will be 35 percent. Income earned in excess of $406,750 will be taxed at 39.6%.

Carl transfers land with a fair market value of $120,000 and basis of $30,000, to a new corporation in exchange for 85 percent o
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: $15,000

Explanation:

From the question, Carl transfers land with a fair market value of $120,000 and basis of $30,000, to a new corporation in exchange for 85 percent of the corporation's stock and that the land is subject to a $45,000 liability, which the corporation assumes.

The amount of gain that Carl must recognize as a result of this transaction will be the difference between the liability the land is subjected to which is $45,000 and the basis of the land which is $30,000.

= $45,000 - $30,000

= $15,000
