The expected residual value of $15,000 at December 31, 2022, is not guaranteed. Equal payments under the lease are $194,000 (including $4,000 maintenance costs) and are due on December 31 of each year. The first payment was made on December 31, 2018. Western Soya’s incremental borrowing rate is 12%. Western Soya knows the interest rate implicit in the lease payments is 10%. Both companies use straight-line depreciation. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

You are a certified public accountant. A client enters your office on April 14 with a bag full of disorganized documents and receipts. He asks you to prepare his tax return and would be happy to file an extension. However, the client expresses some urgency and would like to file the actual tax return as soon as possible because he says, “I should get a refund for all the huge deductions.”When looking through the client’s documents and compiling the tax return, you realize that there are not enough supporting documents for deductions that would result in a refund. Review the following to inform your discussion: Circular 230: Regulations Governing Practice Before the Internal Revenue Service and the Practitioners' Responsibilities in Complying With Records Requests.

Required:

Suggest two alternate solutions to communicate to the client while being in compliance with Circular 230.

Flexible Budgeting and Variance Analysis I Love My Chocolate Company makes dark chocolate and light chocolate....

Flexible Budgeting and Variance Analysis

I Love My Chocolate Company makes dark chocolate and light chocolate. Both products require cocoa and sugar. The following planning information has been made available:

Standard Amount per Case
     Dark Chocolate      Light Chocolate      Standard Price per Pound
Cocoa 10 lbs. 7 lbs. $4.60
Sugar 8 lbs. 12 lbs. 0.60
Standard labor time 0.3 hr. 0.4 hr.
Dark Chocolate Light Chocolate
Planned production 3,900 cases 10,300 cases
Standard labor rate $14.50 per hr. $14.50 per hr.

I Love My Chocolate Company does not expect there to be any beginning or ending inventories of cocoa or sugar. At the end of the budget year, I Love My Chocolate Company had the following actual results:

Dark Chocolate Light Chocolate
Actual production (cases) 3,700 10,700
     Actual Price per Pound      Actual Pounds Purchased and Used
Cocoa $4.70 112,500
Sugar 0.55 154,100
Actual Labor Rate      Actual Labor Hours Used
Dark chocolate $14.10 per hr. 1,010
Light chocolate 14.90 per hr. 4,390

Required:

1. Prepare the following variance analyses for both chocolates and the total, based on the actual results and production levels at the end of the budget year:

     a. Direct materials price variance, direct materials quantity variance, and total variance.

     b. Direct labor rate variance, direct labor time variance, and total variance.

Enter a favorable variance as a negative number using a minus sign and an unfavorable variance as a positive number.

a. Direct materials price variance $
Direct materials quantity variance $
Total direct materials cost variance $
b. Direct labor rate variance $
Direct labor time variance $
Total direct labor cost variance $

2. The variance analyses should be based on the   amounts at   volumes. The budget must flex with the volume changes. If the   volume is different from the planned volume, as it was in this case, then the budget used for performance evaluation should reflect the change in direct materials and direct labor that will be required for the   production. In this way, spending from volume changes can be separated from efficiency and price variances.

7. In 2019, Taxpayer (“T”) is a single, 65 year-old individual who is a U.S. citizen. T turned 65 in 2019. T receives $18,000 of social security income in 2019 (the first year T received Social Security Benefits). Also, T received $6,000 of interest income from a municipal bond in both 2018 and 2019. On June 1, 2018, T took a job with a multi-national corporation which paid T $5,000 per month. As a condition of the job, T is required to work overseas, in the country of Austria, and T did in fact work in Austria for 214 days (From June 1 – December 31) in 2018. T is offered to continue to work (still in Austria and still for $5,000 per month) for seven additional months (from January 1 until the end of July, which is 211 days) in 2019, at which point T’s position would terminate. T is trying to decide whether T wants to continue to work for seven months in 2019 or quit on January 1. (These are T’s only transactions during 2018 and 2019).

a. What is T’s Gross Income in 2019 if T continues to work through July of 2019? __________________________________

b. What is T’s Gross Income in 2019 if T does NOT continue to work in 2019? __________________________________

Please read carefully what is required and answer all the sections. if you cannot solve, leave to someone who can.Thanks.

You are currently working at a mid-sized certified public accounting firm. Your client is Bob Jones. Bob, age 60 and single, has recently retired from IBM. He has $690,000 available in his 401(k) fund and he is thinking of using that money to open a used car business that will be located at 210 Ocean View Drive in Pensacola, Florida. Bob has estimated that the business might make $300,000 in taxable income. Bob’s personal wealth including investments in land, stocks, and bonds is about $14,000,000. He reported an interest income of $20,000 and dividend income of $6,000 last year. The $14,000,000 includes land worth $9,000,000 that Bob bought in 1966 for $450,000. He is also considering transferring a possible 40% interest in his new business to his daughter Mandy, age 23 and single.

Required:

A. Prepare a detailed calculation of the capital gain and income tax supported and explained with authority from the tax code. Use the Capital Gains Tax Worksheet to calculate Bob's income tax. I am looking for a step by step calculation and explanation of the long term capital gain, income tax, and after-tax proceeds from the sale of Bob's land.  Also, please note the long term capital gains tax rate is 20% and there is a 3.8% tax on net investment income that applies.

B. Identify the tax consequences on the sale or exchange of the land consistent with capital gain rules. Consider the selling expense, broker’s fees, closing costs, appraisals, and surveys and the correct schedule form to complete.

C. Describe the after tax effects on the client’s cash flow based on the sale of the land that is needed to provide the funds necessary to start the business. Consider including capital gains tax rules.

D. Explain whether or not the client and his child should take a salary or cash distribution according to tax purposes and Internal Revenue Code and Treasury regulations. Consider the type of business which is an S Corporation and the tax effect whether it is salary, dividends, or cash withdrawal. Looking for a summary discussion of the income tax consequences to Bob and to his business of taking a salary vs. a cash distribution
