Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

$20,000

Explanation:

Time difference from the "Purchase date" to "Sale date" = 9 years (1/1/2007 to 1/1/2016)

Given that, in the 9 years, Troy rented the home for first 5 years (1/1/2007 to 1/1/2012), and lived in the home as his principal residence for next 1 year(1/1/2012 to 31/12/2012)

and again rented out the home for 1 year (1/1/2013 to 31/12/2013), and again started to lived in the home as his principal residence for next 2 years. (1/1/2014 to 1/1/2016)

i.e. when we look at the last 5 years before the sale of house, Troy has lived 3 years in the home as his principal residence.

And Troy has acquired the home for $300,000 and not acquired by "like kind exchange" of property.

As per IRS rules, a owner must live at least 2 years in the home as his principal residence & home must not be acquired by 1031 exchange (like/kind exchange).

Here, Troy satisfies both conditions. (He has lived more than 2 years, and not acquired by like/kind exchange)

So, as per above rules, Troy's home sale is eligible for Maximum exclusion of $250,000 gain (being Troy is Single)

Here, as per IRS rules, Gain = Amount Realized / Adjusted Basis = $320,000 - $300,000 = $20,000.

But, being Troy home sale is eligible for Maximum exclusion of $250,000, this $20,000 gain is deducted and Net Gain = $0.

Answer 2
Answer:

Final answer:

Troy's gain on the sale of his home is $20,000. However, he is eligible to exclude this gain from taxation because he lived in the home as his principal residence for 2 out of the 5 years leading up to the sale, as per IRS guidelines.

Explanation:

Troy's gain on his home sale depends on his usage of the property and the IRS's rules on excluding gains from the sale of a principal residence. According to these rules, a person can generally exclude the gain up to $250,000 from the sale of a principal residence if they owned the house and lived in it as their main home for at least 2 out of the last 5 years before the sale. The years of ownership and use don't need to be consecutive.

Troy purchased the home in 2007 and sold it in 2016. He rented the home initially then lived in it as his principal residence, then rented it again, and lived in it again until the sale. Combining these periods, he lived in the house as his principal residence for only 3 years (2012, 2014, 2015). However, these years are within the 5-year window before the sale (2012-2016).

Troy's recognized gain is the selling price of the home minus the purchase price. Thus, his recognized gain is $320,000 - $300,000 = $20,000. However since he lived in the residence for 2 out of the 5 years before the sale, this gain is excluded from taxation, according to IRS rules.

As a teenager, Enrique learned a valuable lesson from his dad, who told him to invest $1,000 at 8 percent interest at age 20 and leave the money alone until age 65. Enrique's dad knew that one strategy used by wealthy people is to exercise self-discipline and never touch a long-term savings plan. Enrique is happy to apply his dad's advice. If his savings account earns a more aggressive 14 percent annual rate of return, Enrique's savings will be worth approximately ________ more by age 68.

Answers

Answer: $538,806.50

Explanation:

This question is a compound interest question. If the savings increased at 14% per year then the amount when he is 68 will be;

Future Value = Present Value * ( 1 + Interest Rate ) ^ Years

Years = 68 - 20

= 48

Future Value = 1,000 ( 1 + 14%) ^ 48

= 1,000 * 538.8065

= $538,806.50

Bank A has an increase in deposits of $20 million dollars and all bank reserve requirements are 10%. Bank A loans out the full amount of the deposit increase that is allowed. This amount winds up deposited in Bank B. Bank B finds out the full amount possible as well and this amount winds up deposited in Bank C. What is the total increase in deposits resulting from these three banks

Answers

Answer:

Total increase in deposit  = $54,200,000

Explanation:

given data

deposits = $20 million dollars

bank reserve = 10%

solution

we know that Deposit in bank A  is = $20,000,000

and  Reserve @ 10%   = $2,000,000

so

Bank A loans or bank B deposit  will be = $20,000,000  - $2,000,000

Bank A loans or bank B deposit  = $18,000,000

here  Reserve @ 10%  = $1,800,000

so

Bank B loans or Bank C deposit  will be here = $18,000,000  - $1,800,000

Bank B loans or Bank C deposit = $16,200,000

so that

Total increase in deposit will be = Bank A + Bank B + Bank C     ...............1

put here value we get

Total increase in deposit  = $20,000,000 + $18,000,000 + $16,200,000

Total increase in deposit  = $54,200,000
