Noelle's diamond ring was stolen in 2017. She originally paid $15,400 for the ring, but it was worth considerably more at the time of the theft. Noelle filed an insurance claim for the stolen ring, but the claim was denied. Because the insurance claim was denied, Noelle took a casualty loss deduction for the stolen ring on her 2017 tax return. In 2017, Noelle had AGI of $77,000. After Noelle threatened legal action in early 2019, the insurance company had a "change of heart" and sent Noelle a check for $9,240 for the stolen ring. The per-event floor is $100.
What is the proper tax treatment of the $9,240 Noelle received from the insurance company in 2019?
Noelle should _______the amount of______.
Yukari steals $100,000 from her employer through a series of
clever transactions during calendar year 2019. Hoping that she
will not be discovered, she does not report this amount on her
2019 income tax return when she files it, although she does
report her annual salary of $250,000. Should Yukari have
reported the $100,000 in income, she would have owed an
additional $33,000 in taxes. Two years later, the scheme is
uncovered by the shrewd analysis of a new employee.
What is the penalty for the omission of the $100,000 of income?
$24,750
$30,000
$75,000

Assume that in year 2021 when the home had appreciated to $780,000 and the remaining mortgage was $312,000, interest rates declined and Amanda refinanced her home.

Becky and Ken do not establish an interest rate. The business is unsuccessful, and Ken is forced to file for bankruptcy in 2017.

The bank’s remittance clerk made a mistake and credited Junnie with $250,000 which he promptly withdrew. The bank demanded the return of the mistakenly credited excess, but Junnie refused to do so.

No, it was not her fault that the funds in excess of $2,500 were credited to him.
