Tom and Betsy, who are married filing jointly, reported a standard deduction of $24,000 on their 2018 tax return. They paid $500 to the state for income taxes in 2018. In 2019, they received a $125 refund of state taxes paid in 2018. What is the amount that Tom and Betsy need to report on their 2019 tax return?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$0

Explanation:

Since Tom and Betsy didn't itemize their deductions in 2018 (they chose the standard deduction), they didn't include the state taxes in their tax filing. Since the state taxes were not used by Tom and Betsy to reduce their federal income taxes, then any refund will not be included in their current income. Only if state taxes are used to lower federal taxes, do taxpayers need to include any refund.

Glassworks Inc. produces two types of glass shelving, rounded edge and squared edge, on the same production line. For the current period, the company reports the following data.
Rounded Edge Squared Edge Total
Direct materials $ 9,500 $ 21,600 $ 31,100
Direct labor 6,200 11,800 18,000
Overhead (300% of direct labor cost) 18,600 35,400 54,000
Total cost $ 34,300 $ 68,800 $ 103,100
Quantity produced 10,500 ft. 14,000 ft.
Average cost per ft. (rounded) $ 3.27 $ 4.91
Glassworks's controller wishes to apply activity-based costing (ABC) to allocate the $54,000 of overhead costs incurred by the two product lines to see whether cost per foot would change markedly from that reported above. She has collected the following information.
Overhead Cost Category (Activity Cost Pool) Cost
Supervision $ 2,160
Depreciation of machinery 28,840
Assembly line preparation 23,000
Total overhead $ 54,000
She has also collected the following information about the cost drivers for each category (cost pool) and the amount of each driver used by the two product lines. (Round activity rate and cost per unit answers to 2 decimal places.)
Usage

Depreciation of machinery

Machine hours 400 hours 800 hours 1,200 hours

Assembly line preparation Setups (number)

32 times 93 times 125 times

1)

overhead costs assigned to Rounded Edge

supervision = $2,160 x ($6,200 / $18,000) = $744

depreciation = $28,840 x (400 / 1,200) = $9,613

assembly line preparation = $23,000 x (32/125) = $5,888

total overhead costs = $16,245

overhead costs assigned to Squared Edge

total overhead costs = $54,000 - $16,245 = $37,755

2)

total costs assigned to Rounded Edge

materials $9,500

direct labor $6,200

overhead $16,245

total $31,945

cost per foot = $31,945 / 10,500 = $3.0424 per foot

total costs assigned to Squared Edge

materials $21,600

direct labor $11,800

overhead $37,755

total $71,155

cost per foot = $71,155 / 14,000 = $5.0825 per foot

3)

The average cost per foot of Rounded Edge decreased because lower overhead costs were allocated to their production.  

The average cost per foot of Squared Edge increased because higher overhead costs were allocated to their production.  

Freeport-McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc., headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, is a leading international mining company of copper, gold, and molybdenum. Its revenues were over $16 billion with net income of nearly $2 billion in a recent year.

Assume that in February 2020, Freeport-McMoRan paid $800,000 for a mineral deposit in Indonesia. During March, it spent $70,000 in preparing the deposit for exploitation. It was estimated that 1,000,000 total cubic yards could be extracted economically. During 2020, 60,000 cubic yards were extracted. During January 2021, the company spent another $6,000 for additional developmental work that increased the estimated productive capacity of the mineral deposit.

Required:
a. Compute the acquisition cost of the deposit in 2020.
b. Compute depletion for 2020.
c. Compute the net book value of the deposit after payment of the January 2021 developmental costs.

Answers

Answer:

A. $ 870,000

B. $52,200

C. $823,800

Explanation:

a. Computation for acquisition cost.

Using this formula

Acquistion cost= 800,000 +70,000

Acquistion cost=$ 870,000

2. Computation for depletion

Depletion for 2020=

(870,000/1,000,000)*60,000

Depletion for 2020=0.87*60,000

Depletion for 2020= $52,200

3. Computation for the net book value

Net book value =$870,000 -$52,200 +$6,000

Net book value=$823,800

Last month Dexter Company had a $11,780 loss on sales of $164,000. Fixed costs are $62,620 a month. By how much do sales have to increase for Dexter to break even

Answers

Answer:

$38,000

Explanation:

Calculation for how much do sales have to increase for Dexter to break even

First step is to find the contribution margin ratio

Contribution margin ratio = ($62,620 - $11,780)/$164,000 = 30%

Contribution margin ratio =$50,840/$164,000

Contribution margin ratio=31%

Second step is to find the Break even sales Break even sales=$62,620/0.31

Break even sales=$202,000

Last step is to find the increase in sales

Sales must increase =$202,000 - $164,000

Sales must increase = $38,000

Therefore the amount that sales have to increase for Dexter to break even will be $38,000

William Company owns and operates a nationwide chain of movie theaters. The 500 properties in the William chain vary from low volume, small town, single-screen theaters to high volume, big city, multi-screen theaters. The management is considering installing machines that will make popcorn on the premises. These machines would allow the theaters to sell popcorn that would be freshly popped daily rather than the pre-popped corn that is currently purchased in large bags. This proposed feature would be properly advertised and is intended to increase patronage at the company's theaters.

Annual rental costs and operating costs vary with the size of the machines. The machine capacities and costs are as follows:

Economy Regular Super
Annual capacity (boxes) Cost 50,000 120,000 300,000
Annual machine rental $8,000 $11,000 $20,000
Popcorn cost per box 130 130 130
Other costs per box 220 140 050
Cost of each box 080 080 080

Required:
a. Calculate the volume level in boxes at which the economy popper and regular popper would earn the same profit (loss).
b. Management can estimate the number of boxes to be sold at each of its theaters. Present a decision rule that would enable William's management to select the most profitable machine without having to make a separate cost calculation for each theater.
c. Could management use the average number of boxes sold per seat for the entire chain and the capacity of each theater to develop this decision rule? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

William Company

a) Volume level in boxes at which the economy popper and the regular popper would earn the same profit (loss):

                                                  Economy       Regular     Difference in costs

Total Fixed costs                       $58,000      $131,000     $73,000

Total Variable costs per unit    $430            $350           $80

Volume = Difference in fixed costs/Difference in variable = $73,000/$80

= 912.5 boxes

b. Decision rule:  We assume a selling price of $1,000 per box, then based on this selling price, we calculate the contribution per box.  The decision rule is to purchase the machine that has the least break-even point in sales unit.

                                                  Economy          Regular          Super

Total fixed annual costs            $58,000        $131,000     $320,000

Selling price per box                    $1,000           $1,000           $1,000

Total variable cost per box            $430              $350             $260

Contribution per box                     $570              $650             $740

Break-even point =                       101.75            201.54          432.43

The most profitable machine is the Economy Popper since it has the least break-even point.  This is the point at which management will start realizing some profits after covering all the fixed costs.

c. Management may not be able to use the average number of boxes sold per seat for the entire chain and the capacity of each theater to develop this decision rule.  Using this will be complicated.  But, using the break-even point for each machine is a lot easier and simpler to implement.

Marc and Michelle are married and earned salaries this year of $64,000 and $12,000, respectively. In addition to their salaries, they received interest of $350 from municipal bonds and $500 from corporate bonds. Marc and Michelle also paid $2,500 of qualifying moving expenses, and Marc paid alimony to a prior spouse in the amount of $1,500. Marc and Michelle have a 10-year-old son, Matthew, who lived with them throughout the entire year. Thus, Marc and Michelle are allowed to claim a $1,000 child tax credit for Matthew. Marc and Michelle paid $6,000 of expenditures that qualify as itemized deductions and they had a total of $5,500 in federal income taxes withheld from their paychecks during the course of the year.

a) What is Marc and Michelle’s gross income?

b) What is Marc and Michelle’s adjusted gross income?

c) What is the total amount of Marc and Michelle’s deductions from AGI?

d) What is Marc and Michelle’s taxable income?

f) Complete the first two pages of Marc and Michelle’s Form 1040 (use 2015 forms if 2016 forms are unavailable).

Answers

Answer:

A) $76500

B) $72500

C) $24750

D) tax refund of $260

Explanation:

A) calculate Marc and Michelle's gross income

Marc salary = $64000

Michelle's salary = $12000

interest from corporate bond = $ 500

Hence gross income = 64000 + 12000 + 500 = $76500

B) Calculate Marc and Michelle's Adjusted gross income

Gross income = $76500

qualifying moving expenditure = $2500

Alimony paid to previous spouse = $1500

adjusted gross income = 76500 - 2500 - 1500 = $72500

C) Calculate the total amount of Marc and Michelle's deductions from AGI

Standard deduction = $12600

itemized deduction = $6000

personal and dependency allowance = $12150

To calculate the Deductions from AGI we have to add the personal and dependency allowance to the standard deduction ( higher value between standard deduction and itemized deduction )

= 12600 + 12150 = $24750

D ) calculate Marc and Michelle's taxable income

Adjusted gross income = $72500

deduction from itemized deduction = $24750

taxable income = 72500 - 24750 = $47750

E) Determine if Marc and Michelle's taxes payable or refund due for the year

Tax rate schedules :

between $18451 to $79000 : tax rate = $1845 + 15% of income over $18450

Taxable income = $47750

Tax liability = 1845 + (47750 - 18450) * 15% = $6240

child tax credit = $1000

prepayment of taxes = $5500

Tax refund = tax liability - child tax - prepayment of taxes

6240 - 1000 - 5500 = $260

hence there will be a tax return of $260

At $0.31 per​ bushel, the daily supply for wheat is 306 ​bushels, and the daily demand is 459 bushels. When the price is raised to $0.79 per​ bushel, the daily supply increases to 546 ​bushels, and the daily demand decreases to 439 bushels. Assume that the​ price-supply and​ price-demand equations are linear. a. Find the​ price-supply equation.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

a) Find the price supply equation. b) Find the price demand equation. c) Find the equilibrium price and quantity.

Solution:

a) A linear equation is in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope, y is a dependent variable, x is an independent variable, b is value of y at x = 0.

Let p represent the price and q represent the quantity. Hence we have the points (306, 0.31), (546, 0.79)

Using the formula:

[tex]p-p_1=\frac{p_2-p_1}{q_2-q_1}(q-q_1)\\ \\p-0.31=\frac{0.79-0.31}{546-306} (q-306)\\\\p=0.002q-0.302[/tex]

b) Let p represent the price and q represent the demand. Hence we have the points (459, 0.31), (439, 0.79)

Using the formula:

[tex]p-p_1=\frac{p_2-p_1}{q_2-q_1}(q-q_1)\\ \\p-0.31=\frac{0.79-0.31}{439-459} (q-459)\\\\p=-0.024q+11.326[/tex]

c) At equilibrium, price supply equation = price supply equation

0.002q - 0.302 = -0.024q + 11.326

0.002q + 0.024q = 11.326 + 0.302

0.026q = 11.628

q = 447.23 bushels

p = 0.002q - 0.302 = 0.002(447.23) - 0.302

p = $1.2

If the price of chocolate-covered peanuts decreases from $1.10 to $0.90 and the quantity demanded increases from 190 bags to 210 bags, then the price elasticity of demand (by the midpoint method) is:

Answers

Answer:Price elasticity of demand = -0.05

Explanation:

Price elasticity of demand using the midpoint method= [tex]\frac{(Q2- Q1)/(Q2+Q1)/2}{(P2- P1)/(P2+P1)/2}[/tex]

where  Q =Quantity demanded

P = Price

Price elasticity of demand =  ([tex]\frac{(210-190/210+190)/2}{0.90-1.10/ 0.90+1.10)/2}[/tex]

 =     [tex]\frac{20/400)/2 }{ -0.2/2)/2}[/tex]

0.025/ -0.05 = -0.05

Price elasticity of demand = -0.05

The Price elasticity of demand tells us how much quantity demanded changes in response to a change in price. Here the Demand for a good is  inelastic because  the PED coefficient is less than one -0.05

Answer:

Elasticity = 0.5

Explanation:

Elasticity is defined as the responsiveness of quantity demanded to changes in price. One of the methods used to calculate it is the midpoint method.

Midpoint method uses average values to calculate the elasticity of demand of a good.

Elasticity = {(Q2 - Q1) ÷ (Q1 + Q2)/2} ÷ {(P2 - P1) ÷ (P1 + P2)/2}

Elasticity = {(210 - 190) ÷ (210 + 190)/2} ÷ {(0.9 - 1.10) ÷ (0.9 + 1.10)/2}

Elasticity = 0.1 ÷ 0.2

Elasticity = 0.5

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "0.85 "

Explanation:

In order to locate a beta of the company, we must find the average beta of unlevered UPS and FedEx and find a levered beta of the company.

[tex]Unlevered \ beta \ for \ FedEx= \frac{1.1}{1+(1-0)\times (0.2182)}[/tex]

                                            [tex]= \frac{1.1}{1+(1)\times (0.2182)}\\\\= \frac{1.1}{1+(0.2182)}\\\\= \frac{1.1}{1.2182}\\\\=0.90[/tex]

A check register shows a balance of $152.34. The bank statement shows that a check for $75.00 deposited by the account owner was drawn against insufficient funds and was returned. A charge for $2.00 was also deducted by the bank because of the return. Compute the adjusted cash balance of the check register.

Answers

Answer:

$150.34

Explanation:

The $75 check has been drawn against insufficient funds and has been returned so this check won't be included in the adjusted cash balance of the check register.

A charge for $2.0 will be deducted from the balance shown by the cash register above to calculate the adjusted cash balance of the check register.

Adjusted cash balance of the check register = $152.34 - $2

Adjusted cash balance of the check register = $150.34

A company reports accounting data in its financial statements. This data is used for financial analyses that provide insights into a company’s strengths, weaknesses, performance in specific areas, and trends in performance. These analyses are often used to compare a company’s performance to that of its competitors, or to its past or expected future performance. Such insight helps managers and analysts improve their decision making. Most decision makers and analysts use five groups of ratios to examine the different aspects of a company’s performance. Indicate whether each of the following statements regarding financial ratios are true or false?
a. The ratios provide an accurate and thorough representation of the Chinese company’s performance.b. The analysis likely includes incorrect and misleading conclusions.

Answers

Answer:

a. False

b. True

Explanation:

Ratio analysis is a very useful method of analyzing a company however it is not necessarily very in-depth. If a company seems to be performing below the industrial average, it would be prudent to check the reasons why the company is doing so.

The advantage of ratio analysis in this instance is that it would help point you in the right direction to know what accounts to analyze more intensely to find out why the Chinese company is not performing up to standard.

Ratio analysis are good but they do not always provide an accurate and thorough representation of a company’s performance therefore relying solely on ratios will lead to an analysis that likely includes incorrect and misleading conclusions.

Consider a simple example economy where there are two goods, coconuts and restaurant meals (coconut-based). There are two firms. A coconut producer collects and sells 10 million coconuts at $2.00 each. The firm pays $5 million in wages, $0.5 million in interest on an old loan, and $1.5 million in taxes to the government. We also know that 4 million coconuts are sold to the public for consumption, and 6 million coconuts are sold to the restaurant firm, which uses them to prepare meals. The restaurant sells $30 million in meals. The restaurant pays $4 million in wages and the government $3 million in taxes. The government supplies security and accounting services and employs only labor, and government workers are paid $5.5 million, collected in taxed by the government. Finally, consumers pay $1 million in taxes to the government in addition to the taxes paid by the two firms.

Required:
a. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the product approach.
b. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the expenditure approach.
c. Compute GDP for this simple economy using the income approach.

Answers

Answer:

1) GDP using product Approach ; Market value of all goods and services produced

= Coconut + Restaurant meal

= 10 million*$2 + ($30 million - $6 million*$2) as 6 million coconuts are sold to restaurant as raw materials so to avoid double counting.

= $20 million + $30 million - $12 million

= $38 million

2) Expenditure Approach : Consumption + Investment + Government Expenditure + Net Exports  

= $4 million * $2 + $30 million + $5.5 million

= $8 million + $30 million + $5.5 million

= $43.5 million

3) Income Approach : Wages + Rent + Interest + Profit

= $5 million + $0.5 million + $1.5 million +$3 million + $4 million + $1 million

= $15 million

Explanation:

Every negative actions that conducted by a member of company will expose the company to the risk of lawsuits.

To prevent this from happening, the company often hire compliance and ethics professional to ensure that the employees are following a set of procedures that prevent them from violating the social norms.

This activity is important because any business that offers multiple product lines to multiple market segments is faced with the task of making the product/market decisions and prioritizing those decisions. Products and market segments that are growing quickly and are very profitable should get more attention and resources than a product and market segment that does not show as much potential.
Once a marketing manager creates a market-product grid, they must select which segments to target. To do this, the marketing manager should use several criteria in assessing the different segments. Those criteria include: market size, expected growth, competitive position, cost of reaching the segment, and the compatibility with the organization's objectives and resources.
The goal of this exercise is to demonstrate your understanding of the market-product development process by analyzing a gift shop's markets and products.
Read the case below and then answer the questions that follow as you consider its markets and product offerings.
A small local gift shop recently marked its 25th anniversary of being in business. Over that time, the owners have continually changed the products sold in its store to reflect changes in the market. From the early days of selling small gift-type items such as figurines and collectibles, the store now offers a more eclectic mix of merchandise that includes Vera Bradley purses and inexpensive jewelry, as well as items that could be classified as "gift-type" products and merchandise that is best described as "collectibles."
However, the demographics of the store's market, as well as the needs of that market, seem to be changing. There has been an influx of younger customers (20s and 30s) into the area, which has brought the average age of the area down by 9.8 years. This rapidly growing segment doesn't seem interested in buying the same collectibles that their parents bought. Many older residents (60s and 70s) have been leaving the area for retirement. The older customers are still buying the collectibles, but are also buying gifts for children and grandchildren for holidays and special occasions. Indeed, while sales of merchandise aimed at the younger customers have grown 30 percent, sales to the older crowd have been flat. And the younger group has now passed the older segment in terms of the size of the population. While there are other stores in the area selling similar merchandise, this gift shop has managed to get an exclusive on the Vera Bradley line, which has been popular with the younger customers. The owners of the gift shop are considering which market segment should be the focus of their attention and limited resources. This is an especially critical decision because of the limited space in the store and the need to add fixtures for carrying some of the collectible items that are coming on the market.
Based on the limited information in the case, which market segment is larger?
a) the over-80 segment
b) all segments are the same size
c) the 60s and 70s segment
d) the 20s and 30s segment

Answers

Answer:

d) the 20s and 30s segment

Explanation:

The case clearly states "And the younger group has now passed the older segment in terms of the size of the population."

Besides the fact that there are more younger people than older people in the area, the demographic of the store's customers is changing also: "... sales of merchandise aimed at the younger customers have grown 30 percent, sales to the older crowd have been flat.".

We can imply that the store's largest market segment is young people in their 20s and 30s.

Answers

Answer:

Because each of those mediums has a different logic.

Explanation:

For journalists in television, time is a great constraint, and therefore, they are interested in news reporting that is succint, and even entertaining.

In newspapers, what is limited is not time, but word space. Journalists are worried about presenting a newstory with the right words, but without an excessive amount of them.

Finally, in radio, journalists are worried about presenting a newscast with clear words, and in a way that the listener can understand, because radio lacks the visual clues that are present in newspapers and television.

Answers

Answer:

the options are missing:

Specific, actionable, and justified

Specific but not actionable and not justified

Specific and actionable but not justified

The answer is:

Specific, actionable, and justified

This proposition is very specific (it is the only thing that all three options agree upon).

In order for a recommendation to be actionable, it must be relevant and feasible.

This recommendation is feasible since 83% of the employees prefer the $100 stipend. It is also relevant because the company can save approximately $61 per employee per day.

This $61 savings per day per employee also makes this proposition justifiable since the company's employees travel a lot.

Reimbursement is the payment that the company does to its employees for their service. The proposal is Specific, actionable, and justified.

What is Reimbursement ?

It is the money paid to the employees/customer/parties for their services provided. It's a business expense and paid after complying with the tax rules.

The proposal is Specific, actionable, and justified.

The recommendation should be feasible to be actionable. It is feasible because 83% of employees agreed to the $100 stipend daily for meals and incidental expenses. And it is at the same time beneficial to the company, as it would save $61 per employee per day.

Therefore, it can be said that the above explanation aptly describes the statement.

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

Share of ordinary income:

= (Ordinary income - Wages - Depreciation)/2

= (900,000 - 200,000 - 300,000)/2

= 400,000/2

= 200,000

Share of net short term capital gain

= (12,000 - 6,000) × 50%

= 6,000 × 0.5

= 3,000

Share of interest income

= 4000 × 50%

= 4000 × 0.5

= 2000

Share of charitable contribution deduction
