- How do the all events and economic performance requirements apply to the following transactions by an accrual basis taxpayer? a. The company guarantees its products for six months. At the end of 2019, customers had made valid claims for 600,000 that were not paid until 2020. Also, the company estimates that another 400,000 in claims from 2019 sales will be filed and paid in 2020. b. The accrual basis taxpayer reported 200,000 in corporate taxable income for 2019. The state income tax rate was 6%. The corporation paid 7,000 in estimated state income taxes in 2019 and paid 2,000 on 2018 state income taxes when it filed its 2018 state income tax return in March 2019. The company filed its 2019 state income tax return in March 2020 and paid the remaining 5,000 of its 2019 state income tax liability. c. An employee was involved in an accident while making a sales call. The company paid the injured victim 15,000 in 2019 and agreed to pay the victim 15,000 a year for the next nine years.arrow_forwardOn June 30, 2019, Kelly sold property for 240,000 cash and a 960,000 note due on September 30, 2020. The note will also pay 6% interest, which is slightly higher than the Federal rate. Kellys cost of the property was 400,000. She is concerned that Congress may increase the tax rate that will apply when the note is collected. Kellys after-tax rate of return on investments is 6%. a. What can Kelly do to avoid the expected higher tax rate? b. Assuming that Kellys marginal combined Federal and state tax rate is 25% in 2019, how much would the tax rates need to increase to make the option identified in part (a) advisable?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is incorrect? Assume that the rental activity is classified as ‘production-of-income.’ If the taxpayer sells the rental property later at a loss, the loss will be treated as a capital loss (i.e., $3,000/$1,500 deduction limit in the current year). An amount that would have been paid in an arm’s-length transaction is considered a reasonable amount as deduction. Payment (except for medical or educational expense) of another person’s obligation does not result in a tax deduction for the payer. Regarding the start-up costs, if the new business is in the same line of business as the existing one and if the new business is not launched, then none of the start-up costs are deductible. Payments for a speeding ticket are nondeductible. HELParrow_forward
