Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the amount and character of the gain recorded is shown below:
1. Recognized gain would be
= Sales - the cost of the property - recovery cost
= $1,200,000 - $1,000,000 - $411,750
= $611,750
2. Now as per the section 1245 the potential recapture is $411,750
3. Now extra section 291 ordinary income in the case when it is a corporation
= $411,750 ×20%
= $82,350
4. And finally $82,350 would be considered as an ordinary income under section 291 while the remaining balance i.e.
= $611,750 - $82,350
= $529,400
This amount would be considered as a gain under section 1231
Answer:
a. Plan I is better is we drive 300 miles in a day.
b. 150 miles.
Explanation:
a. if mileage is 300 then rental charges will be,
Plan I : $36 + 17 cents * miles
$36 + 0.17 * 300 = $41.10.
Plan II : $24 + 25 cents * miles
$24 + 0.25 * 300 = $99.00
Plan I total cost for 300 miles is $41.10 whereas Plan II total cost for 300 miles is $99.00. Plan I is better plan and cost effective.
b. For mileage (m) calculation we will use equation;
Plan I = Plan II
$36 + 0.17m = $24 +0.25m
0.25m - 0.17m = $36 - $24
m = $12 / 0.08
m = 150 miles.

Answer:
a. 4.94%
b. 11.48%
Explanation:
Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the pretax cost of debt and cost of equity.
We proceed as follows;
a. From the question;
The debt equity ratio = 1.15
since Equity = 1 ; Then
Total debt + Total equity = 1 + 1.15 = 2.15
Mathematically ;
WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + Pretax Cost of debt x Weight of debt x (1-Tax rate)
Where WACC = 8.6%
Cost of equity = 14%
Weight of equity = 1/(total debt + total equity) = 1/(1+1.15) = 1/2.15
Pretax cost of debt = ?
Weight of debt = debt equity ratio/total cost of debt = 1.15/2.15
Tax rate = 21% = 0.21
Substituting these values, we have;
8.6% = 14% x 1/2.15 + Pretax cost of debt x 1.15/2.15 x (1-21%)
8.6% = 14% x 1/2.15 + Pretax cost of debt x 1.15/2.15 x (1-21%)
Pretax cost debt = (8.6%-6.511628%)/(1.15/2.15 x (1-21%))
Pretax cost of debt = 4.94%
b. WACC = Cost of equity x Weight of equity + After tax Cost of debt x Weight of debt
8.6% = Cost of equity x 1/2.15 + 6.1% x 1.15/2.15
Cost of equity = (8.6%-3.26279%)/(1/2.15)
Cost of equity = 11.48%
Answer:
B) 8 percent.
Explanation:
The yield to maturity is the expected rate of return of a bonds if held until maturity.
We are asked precisely for what rate are we receiving if held at maturity so we receive the yield to maturity.
That is a rate at which the discounted coupon payment and maturity payment matches the price we urchase the bonds.
