Janice is the sole owner of Catbird Company. In the current year, Catbird had operating income of $100,000, a long-term capital
Ahat [919]

Answer / Explanation:

To answer this question considering the tax entity and how Janice will report this information on her individual tax return, We need to consider the fact that different tax entity are categorized by its unique report and information.

So to properly answer these question, we will have to assume three (3) different scenario which are: (1) Is it a Limited Liability Company, Is it a Small business corporation, Is it an AC Corporation.

We should also note that this segregation is need as each type of corporation tax are dealt with differently thus enabling us treat the question properly in respect to tax entity and as regards to how Janice will report the information on her individual tax return.

Consequentially,

a. If Catbird Company is an LLC: A single-member LLC is taxed as a proprietorship. Thus, Janice will report the $100,000 operating income (Schedule C), $15,000 long-term capital gain (Schedule D), and if she itemizes, $5,000 charitable contribution (Schedule A) on her tax return. The $70,000 withdrawal would have no effect on Janice's individual tax return.

b. If Catbird Company is an S corporation: An S corporation is a tax reporting entity (Form 1120S), and its income, gains, deductions, and losses are passed through to and reported by the shareholders on their tax returns. Separately stated items (e.g., long-term capital gain and charitable contribution) retain their character at the shareholder level. Consequently, Janice will report the $100,000 operating income (Schedule E), $15,000 long-term capital gain (Schedule D), and if she itemizes, $5,000 charitable contribution (Schedule A) on her tax return. The $70,000 withdrawal would have no effect on Janice's individual tax return.

c. If Catbird Company is a C corporation: A C corporation is a separate taxable entity, and its taxable income has no effect on the shareholders until such time a dividend is paid. When dividends are paid, shareholders must report dividend income on their tax returns. Thus, Catbird Company will report taxable income of $110,000 ($100,000 operating income + $15,000 LTCG - $5,000 charitable contribution) on its Form 1120. Corporations receive no preferential tax rate on long-term capital gains. Janice will report dividend income of $70,000 (Schedule B) on her individual tax return.

Moreover , a larger portion (300,000) of the opening cash balance(400,000) for the year was used in acquiring land and equipment and also 100,000 used in the redemption of bond. , even though this reduced the interest expense and improve equity , yet it was a big blow to the cash flow.

What do inflation rates measure?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

C. The speed with which general prices are rising

Explanation:

Inflation measures the rate at which the general prices of goods and services are increasing in an economy. During inflation, the purchasing power of a country's currency is eroded.  Inflation means a selected basket of goods will cost more this period than it did in the previous season.

The consumer price index or CPI is the most acceptable index used in determining the rate of inflation. Inflation may result from high economic growth where firms and individuals have increased incomes resulting in too much money in circulation.  A moderate level of inflation is required to promote spending and sustain favorable economic growth.
