Albert owns 100 acres of land on which he grows spruce trees. His adjusted basis for the land is $89,600. He receives condemnation proceeds of $8,960 when the city's new beltway takes 5 acres along the eastern boundary of his property. He also receives a severance award of $5,376 associated with the possible harmful effects of exhaust fumes on his trees. Albert invests the $14,336 in a growth mutual fund.

Required:
a. Determine the tax consequences to Albert of the condemnation proceeds.
b. Determine the tax consequences to Albert of the severance award.

Answers

Answer:

A. Albert has a $4,480 realized gain of which $4,480 is recognized.

B. Adjusted basis $79,744

Explanation:

a. Calculation to determine the tax consequences to Albert of the condemnation proceeds.

Based on the information given Albert has a REALIZED GAIN of the amount of $4,480 of which the amount of $4,480 is RECOGNIZED, calculated as:

=$8,960 - [(5 acres / 100 acres) x $89,600)]

=$8,960 -$4,480

=$4,480

Therefore the tax consequences to Albert of the condemnation proceeds will be $4,480 realized gain of which $4,480 is recognized.

B. Calculation to Determine the tax consequences to Albert of the severance award.

Based on the information the SEVERANCE AWARD tend to decrease Albert's basis of remaining property which therefore means that His ADJUSTED BASIS in the remaining property will be calculated as:

Adjusted basis=($89,600 - $4,480)- $5,376

Adjusted basis=$85,120-$5,376

Adjusted basis=$79,744

Therefore The the tax consequences to Albert of the severance award will be Adjusted basis of $79,744

Suppose Blue Hamster Manufacturing Inc, is evaluation a proposed capital budgeting project (project alpha) that will require an initial investment of $500,000. The project is expected to generate the following net cash flows:
Year Cash Flow
Year 1 $325,000
Year 2 $425,000
Year 3 $450,000
Year 4 $400,000
Blue Hamster Manufacturing Inc’s weighted average cost of the capital is 10%, and project alpha has the same risk as the firm’s average project. Based on the cash flows, what is project Alpha’s net present value (NPV)?
a. $871,690
b. $1,157,991
c. $1,182,991
d. $757,991

Answers

Answer:

d. $757,991.26

Explanation:

Present value of inflows=cash inflow*Present value of discounting factor(rate%,time period)

= (325,000/1.10) + (425,000/1.10^2) + (450,000/1.10^3) + (400,000/1.10^4)

= $1,257,991.25743

NPV = Present value of inflows - Present value of outflows

NPV = $1,257,991.25743 - $500,000

NPV = 757991.25743

NPV = $757,991.26

In current business publications, find examples of firms whose strategies to increase profits focus primarily on generating more revenue. Compare these cases with firms that are trying to cut costs to increase profits. In your initial post, include a summary of these firms and how the different strategies have been successful or unsuccessful.
Having a nice size profit margin is the goal for most companies. In order to make this happen there has to be a plan/strategy that is carefully thought out and implemented. You want to take your time and make sure things are done correctly and in a way that it is profitable and not detrimental to your company at the same time. One good example of this act comes from McDonalds. One McDonalds franchise in New York increased the price of their Big Mac from $5.98 to $6.28 currently to increase revenue. Prior to this there was an anual increase that took place. "The Golden Arches' pricing in the U.S. Rose 2% year over year in the first quarter, which was still less than the consumer Price Index's overall".
On the other end of the spectrum we have companies like Apple. Apple fired 1,600 full time employees from retail stores to increase their profit margin. "The retail segment reported operating income of $308 million during the second quarter of 2009 down from #334 million....". In cutting down on those full time positions they were able to increase their profits by paying less full time salaries to employees. "Revenue increase 8.7% to 8.16 Billion, which is more than 7.96 billion expected...". I do not feel that this is the best way to go about getting results. A merger of the two would be effective. Gradually increasing sales prices and not eliminating so many positions at once or merging positions even would be effective. You have to take into account that less employees mean more work for the workers that are left, which could leave them in a stressful work environment. In turn could mean customer service quality decreases drastically. Things have to be looked at on both sides of the spectrum.

Answers

Answer:

Following are the responses to these question.

Explanation:

The goal of most businesses is to achieve the optimum gross profit. Moreover, to achieve this, a well-designed plan or plan deserves to be placed in place. The management needs to ensure that things are done properly and so that they are successful at the same period and therefore do not harm the business. That fast-food giant Mcdonald's is a good example of this. One of McDonald's' franchises in York City recently increased its Big Mac sales from $5,98 to $6,28. Before all this, Macdonalds would have an annual boost.

"During first 4th quarter, the price of Eiffel Tower in the U.s. Increased two percent year on year was still less than price index"

They need businesses like Apple at another end of the continuum. Apple also fired 1,600 filled retail employees to increase its gross profit. "Operating revenue inside the second quarter of 2009 were down $308 million to $334 million...." We were able to boost their earnings by cutting such full-time jobs. "To 8.16 billion u.s. dollars, which is over 7.96 percent estimated, the economy increased by 8.7%.

It doesn't seem to be the right way of achieving performance. It'd be effective to mix the two. Gradual sale rates are an optimal option, not cutting too many roles at once or combination. It is borne in mind that a decrease in the number of jobs is much more work to left workers who can keep them in a demanding working environment. This could mean a dramatic decline in customer support efficiency. Stuff on all sides of the spectrum must be looked at.

Answers

Answer:

Patriot Company

1. The total material costs incurred by the company during the month (actual costs of materials) = $168,000

2. The total material costs allowed for the production during the month (i.e., standard costs of materials) = $176,000

3. The total variance for materials to be reported during the month is $8,000 F.

4. The Direct material price variance is = $8,000 U

5. The Direct material quantity variance is = $16,000 F

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Standard for materials per unit:

Materials (Ballistic Nylon): 8 yards  $4 per yard = $32 per unit

Production in the most recent month = 5,500 units

Actual materials purchased and used = 40,000 yards at $4.20 per yard

1. The total material costs incurred by the company during the month (actual costs of materials) = $168,000 (40,000 * $4.20)

2. The total material costs allowed for the production during the month (i.e., standard costs of materials) = $176,000 (8 * 5,500 * $4.00)

3. The total variance for materials to be reported during the month = $8,000.  It is favorable (F)

4. Direct materials price variance = (Standard price - Actual price) * Actual quantity

= ($4.00 - $4.20) * 40,000

= $8,000 U

5. Direct materials quantity variance = Standard quantity - Actual quantity * Standard price

= (44,000 - 40,000) * $4

= 4,000 * $4

= $16,000 F

What is the net present value of the machine?

Answers

Answer:

($3,100)

Explanation:

Net cash flows each year = Projected annual after-tax net income + Depreciation

Net cash flows each year = $1,200 + $10,000

Net cash flows each year = $11,200 each year

Total value of inflows in 3 years = Net cash flows each year * Annuity factor of (10%,3 years)

Total value of inflows in 3 years = $11,200 * 2.4018

Total value of inflows in 3 years = $26,900

Net Present value = Present value of inflows - Cash outflow

Net Present value = $26,900 - $30,000

Net Present value = ($3,100)

So, tnet present value of the machine is ($3,100).

In sampling for attributes (i.e. test of controls) the determination of sample size is a function of:___________

a. risk of assessing control risk too low
b. tolerable rate
c. estimated population deviation rate.

Answers

Answer:

b. tolerable rate

Explanation:

A sample is defined as a representative part of a population that is used in a study to replicate the characteristics of the population.

For a sample to be any good it must effectively reflect the characteristics of the population.

When sampling for attributes there are three determinants of sample size that is put into consideration:

- risk of incorrect acceptance

- tolerable rate or error

- expected error

Tolerable rate is the largest deviation or variance that can be acceptable in a sample and this reflects on reliability of specific controls.

It is the allowable deviation in population that still allows original plan to be executed
