Answer: B. The firm would install the filter at a cost of $ 300,000.

Explanation:

If the community owns the property rights, they would be able to demand that the firm pay the external cost of $500,000 per year.

If on the other hand the company installed a filter, it would cost them $300,000 but then they would not have to pay the community the $500,000.

The lower cost option would be to install the filter for $300,000 which is what the firm would do.

Compute Marcia's QBI deduction, assuming her overall taxable income before QBI is $180,000.

$36,000

Explanation:

Marcia's QBI deduction limits:

lower between 20% of QBI or taxable income

$240,000 x 20% = $48,000

$300,000 x 20% = $60,000

or

higher between 50% of wages or 25% of wages + 2.5% of business property

$80,000 x 50% = $40,000

($80,000 x 25%) + (2.5% x $50,000) = $21,250

Marcia's QBI deduction limits:

lower between 20% of QBI or taxable income

$180,000 x 20% = $36,000

$300,000 x 20% = $60,000

or

higher between 50% of wages or 25% of wages + 2.5% of business property

$80,000 x 50% = $40,000

($80,000 x 25%) + (2.5% x $50,000) = $21,250
