Section 1245 property refers to property that either could depreciate or has depreciated or been amortized showing that it refers to both tangible and intangible assets.
If this asset is sold and there is a gain, the amount of the gain that is taxable as ordinary income is the amount up to the amount of depreciation.
As there has been a gain in this sale because the sales price is more than the purchase price and the Depreciation is $7,000, that is the amount that will be taxable as ordinary income.
Answer:
Shopping in a traditional manner
If I had to buy, let’s say an iPad, I would visit the official store. First of all, I would take a closer look at the product, revising it carefully, if it feels right and if it meets my needs. Then I would ask for the price if they have a discount or any sale upcoming or payment plan. If everything meets my requirements I would buy the item. On the other hand, if there weren’t any official stores around the place I live in, I would visit three different department stores, preferably where they have the product of my interest displayed, also I would ask about the price and/or payment plan or discounts and availability. I must mention that cost is an important aspect to make a decision on where to buy the item. All of this process would take about 1 or 2 days at most.

Shopping on the web or via a mobile app
It is almost the same as shopping in a traditional manner, the greater differences are that there are more virtual places/shops online to compare prices and availability and sometimes they have great offers, because of the competition. Generally, the items are cheaper than a department store.
This process could take about a week, especially if you are waiting for a specific offer.

Explanation:
1. The journal entry for declaration of dividend is shown below:
Retained Earnings A/c Dr
= (8,600 million shares × $0.18 per share) = $1,548 million
To Dividend payable in cash $1,548 million
(Being dividend is declared)
2. No journal entry should be passed on the record date
3. The journal entry for payment of the cash dividend is shown below:
Cash dividend payable A/c Dr $1,548 million
To Cash $1,5480 million
(Being payment is made for cash dividend)
The journal entries made by BusinessSoftware Corp. to record the declaration and payment of the cash dividend for its 8,600 million shares involve debiting retained earnings and crediting dividends payable on the declaration date, and debiting dividends payable and crediting cash on the payment date.
The journal entries made by BusinessSoftware Corp. to record the declaration and payment of the cash dividend for its 8,600 million shares would be as follows:

Answer:
If the tax rate is 10% the better option is transaction 1 ($11,100 to 14,220)
IF the tax rate is 30% the better option is transaction 2 ($10,885 to 11,100)
Explanation:
We will compare the after tax cost for transaction two and check if it is better than 11,100 which will be the net cost for transaciton one
We must understad that the tax income deductible transacton provides a tax shield on the tax income, therefore his net effect is lower after considering taxes.
the rate will be think it as a discount to the pruchase price
at 10% income rate:
15,800 x ( 1 - 10% ) = 14,220
at 30% income rate
15,500 x ( 1 - 30% ) = 10,885
Answer:
Fixed Cost 216,640
Explanation:
The first step is calculate the difference between activity levels
This tell us 25 units generated cost for 154,000
154,000 / 25 = Variable Cost = 6,250
Now we use either the low or high values to solve for fixedcost:
total = variable + fixed
fixed = total - variable
HIGH
Total Cost 500,000
Variable 283,360 (6,250 x 46)
Fixed Cost 216,640
LOW
Total Cost 346,000
Variable 129,360 (6,250 x 21)
Fixed Cost 216,640
a. 6 pounds of fish per crate of olives
b. 2 pounds of fish per crate of olives
c. 8 pounds of fish per crate of olives
d. 18 pounds of fish per crate of olives
Answer:
Portugal has comparative advantage in producing olives.
Switzerland has comparative advantage in producing fish.
Portugal can gain from trade if it receives more than 3 pounds of fish per crate of olives.
Switzerland can gain from trade if it receives more than 1/11 of olives for each pound of fish.
d. 18 pounds of fish per crate of olives.
Explanation:
Switzerland and Portugal both countries can produce Olives and fish. One country has advantage in producing fish while other has advantage in producing olives. Both countries can gain from trade if they find a intermediary way so that both countries can be in win win situation. It is beneficial for Portugal if it trades with Switzerland if it receives more than 3 pounds of fish.
Portugal has a comparative advantage in producing olives while Switzerland in producing fish. For mutual benefits, Portugal should receive more than 3 pounds of fish per crate of olives and Switzerland should receive more than 1/11 crate of olives per pound of fish. The optimal price of trade is a. 6 pounds of fish per crate of olives.
Comparative advantage is an economic term that refers to an economy's ability to produce goods and services at a lower opportunity cost than that of trade partners. In this case, Portugal has a comparative advantage in the production of olives given that its opportunity cost (3 pounds of fish) is lower than that of Switzerland's (11 pounds of fish). Consequently, Switzerland has a comparative advantage in the production of fish since by concentrating on producing fish, it gives up less in terms of olives than Portugal does.
For trade to be beneficial for both countries, Portugal should receive more than 3 pounds of fish for every crate of olives it exports to Switzerland - this is higher than the opportunity cost of producing olives domestically. Similarly, Switzerland should receive more than 1/11 crate of olives (since its opportunity cost is 11 pounds of fish per crate of olives) for every pound of fish it exports to Portugal.
Considering these conditions, from the available prices of trade, the option that allows both countries to gain from trade is a. 6 pounds of fish per crate of olives. This price is more than Portugal's opportunity cost of 3 and less than Switzerland's of 11.

Answer:
$984,061.12
Explanation:
The computation of sales revenue under the worst-case scenario is shown below:-
Sales revenue under the worst-case scenario = Quantity sold × Price
= (1,600 - 1,600 × 3%) × ($647 - $647 × 2%)
= (1,600 - 48) × ($647 - 12.94)
= 1,552 × 634.06
= $984,061.12
Therefore for computing the sales revenue under the worst-case scenario we simply applied the above formula.
