How much of this gain is treated as capital, and how much is ordinary

Answers

Answer:

a. $0 will be reported as capital gain, while $7,500 will be reported as ordinary gain.

b. $1,000 will be reported as capital gain, while $8,000 will be reported as ordinary gain.

Explanation:

Note: This question is not complete as part 'a' of the requirement is omitted. The complete question with the part 'a' of the requirement is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Since its formation, Roof Corporation has incurred the following net Section 1231 gains and losses.

Year 1  $ (12,000)    Net Section 1231 loss

Year 2      10,500      Net Section 1231 gain

Year 3    (14,000)     Net Section 1231 loss

a. In year 4, Roof sold one asset and recognized a $7,500 net Section 1231 gain. How much of this gain is treated as capital, and how much is ordinary?

b. In year 5, Roof sold one asset and recognized a $9,000 net Section 1231 gain. How much of this gain is treated as capital, and how much is ordinary?

Explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

When section 1231 losses exceed section 1231 profits in the prior five years, the excess loss (unapplied loss) is applied against the current year's section 1231 gain.

The amount that is reported as ordinary income is the amount of the loss that is applied against the current year's section 1231 gain.

Long-term capital gain is the excess of the current year's section 1231 gain over the the recaptured section 1231 loss from the prior five years.

You have to start with the earliest year to apply section 1231 losses from the previous five years to the current year's section 1231 gain.

Therefore, we have:

a. In year 4, Roof sold one asset and recognized a $7,500 net Section 1231 gain. How much of this gain is treated as capital, and how much is ordinary?

As a result of the loss from the previous year that is applied to the extent of $7,500, the whole of the $7,500 net Section 1231 gain will be recorded as ordinary gain.

Therefore, $0 will be reported as capital gain, while $7,500 will be reported as ordinary gain.

b. In year 5, Roof sold one asset and recognized a $9,000 net Section 1231 gain. How much of this gain is treated as capital, and how much is ordinary?

Unapplied losses in previous years can be calculated as follows:

Details                                                       Amount ($)  

Net Section 1231 loss in Year 3                  (14,000)    

Net Section 1231 gain in Year 4                   7,500

Net Section 1231 loss in Year 1                  (12,000)

Net Section 1231 gain in Year 2                 10,500  

Unapplied losses in previous years        (8,000)  

Because there are unapplied losses of $8,000 from previous years, $8,000 will be reported as ordinary gain.

Therefore, the amount to be reported as capital gain can be calculated as follows:

Amount to be reported as capital gain = Gain in Year 5 – Amount to be reported as ordinary gain = $9,000 - $8,000 = $1,000

Therefore, $1,000 will be reported as capital gain, while $8,000 will be reported as ordinary gain.

A company has total fixed costs of $180,000 and a contribution margin ratio of 30%. How much sales are necessary to break even? a) $540,000
b) $600,000
c) $54,000
d) $126,000

✓break even point can be calculated as ratio of Total fixed costs to Contribution margin ratio. This can be expressed as

break even point=[Total fixed costs ]/ [ Contribution margin ratio.]

Substitute,

TaskMaster Enterprises employs a standard cost system in which direct materials inventory is carried at standard cost. TaskMaster has established the following standards for the prime costs of one unit of product.Standard Quantity Standard Price Standard Cost

Direct Materials 10 pounds $ 1.90 per pound $ 19.00
Direct Labor 0.30 hour $ 6.80 per hour 2.04
$ 21.04

During November, TaskMaster purchased 200,000 pounds of direct materials at a total cost of $440,000. The total factory wages for November were $48,000, 80% of which were for direct labor. TaskMaster manufactured 19,000 units of product during November using 175,000 pounds of direct materials and 6,000 direct labor hours.

What is the direct labor price (rate) variance for November?

Answers

Answer:

$2,400 Favourable

Explanation:

direct labor price (rate) variance =(Aq×Ap)-(Aq×Sp)

                                                      =(6,000×$6.40) - (6,000×$ 6.80)

                                                      = $2,400 Favourable

Ap = (48,000×80%)/6,000

     = $6.40

Answer:

$2,400 Favourable

Explanation:

direct labor price (rate) variance =(Aq×Ap)-(Aq×Sp)

                                                     =(6,000×$6.40) - (6,000×$ 6.80)

                                                     = $2,400 Favourable

Ap = (48,000×80%)/6,000

    = $6.40

Note: For stock split, no journal entry is required as there will be no change in the total value but only the number of shares will increase and per share will decrease keeping the total value same. Only memorandum entries are prepared.

The common stock dividend per share is confusing with another symbol whether it is $5 per share or $0.5 per share, so it is assumed as $0.5 per share is declared as dividend for common stock.

Note: Since no question is asked in this post, it is assumed that journal entries are required to record transactions that occurred during 2018.
