You are the new accounting manager at the Barry Transport Company. Your CFO has asked you to provide input on the company's income tax position based on the following: Pretax accounting income was $75 million and taxable income was $13 million for the year ended December 31, 2018. The difference was due to three items: Tax depreciation exceeds book depreciation by $60 million in 2018 for the business complex acquired that year. This amount is scheduled to be $70 million in 2019 and to reverse as ($70 million) and ($60 million) in 2020, and 2021, respectively. Insurance of $10 million was paid in 2018 for 2019 coverage. A $8 million loss contingency was accrued in 2018, to be paid in 2020. No temporary differences existed at the beginning of 2018. The tax rate is 40%. Required: 1. Determine the amounts necessary to record income taxes for 2018 and prepare the appropriate journal entry. 2. Assume the enacted federal income tax law specifies that the tax rate will change from 40% to 35% in 2020. When scheduling the reversal of the depreciation difference, you were uncertain as to how to deal with the fact that the difference will continue to originate in 2019 before reversing the next two years. Upon consulting PricewaterhouseCoopers' Comperio database, you found:

PROGRAM LANGUAGE IN C, PLEASE KEEP IT SIMPLE EVEN IF IT IS REDUNDANT

In this problem you will take a list of names from the user and sort them alphabetically using selection sort.

The code for selection sort for integer is available in the "Lab and Weekly Coding Solution module" in webcourses.

Ask the user how many names the user wants to input. Let's say the number be N.

Then take N number of names and put them in an array of strings.

Then write a function and name it as selection_sort. This function takes an array of strings and sort it alphabetically. The sorting should not be case sensitive.

Then in the main function print the strings in sorted order. After sorting, your code should prompt for a string to search. Based on the input, your program should find all the names containing the given search string as a sub string.

Sample Input/Output (italic texts are part of input)

Enter how many names: 5

Name 1: Torben Pedersen

Name 2: Nusair Ahmed

Name 3: Mikael

Name 4: nasir ahmed

Name 5: Mikel

Sorted Names:

mikael

mikel

nasir ahmed

nusair ahmed

torben pedersen

Enter search string: el

mikael

mikel

Hints:

In order to solve the String problem 1 in repl.it, you can use the selection sort code you have written or the one I have uploaded in weekly coding solutions module.

The concept is very similar to an integer sorting. However, in the case of string, you have to use strcmp function and strcpy function for comparing and swapping strings.

For finding searching sub string, you can use strstr() function of string.h library

Rubric:

Mills Corporation acquired as a long-term investment $225 million of 8% bonds, dated July 1, on July 1, 2018. Mills determined that it should account for the bonds as an available-for-sale investment. The market interest rate (yield) was 6% for bonds of similar risk and maturity. Mills paid $250 million for the bonds. The company will receive interest semiannually on June 30 and December 31. As a result of changing market conditions, the fair value of the bonds at December 31, 2018, was $240 million.

Required: 1. & 2. Prepare the journal entry to record Mills’ investment in the bonds on July 1, 2018 and interest on December 31, 2018, at the effective (market) rate.

3. At what amount will Mills report its investment in the December 31, 2018, balance sheet?

4. Suppose Moody’s bond rating agency upgraded the risk rating of the bonds, and Mills decided to sell the investment on January 2, 2019, for $266 million. Prepare the journal entries to record the sale.

****Part 4 must have 3 entries: 1- Update the fair-value adjustment. 2- Record the sale of the investment by Mills. 3- Record the updating the fair-value adjustment.

A random sample of 1,496 respondents of a major metropolitan area was questioned about a number of issues. When asked to agree or disagree with the statement “Hand guns should be outlawed”, 650 respondents agreed. Researchers could thus construct a confidence interval for the proportion of the residents of this metropolitan area who support banning hand guns (use the 95% confidence level). Use this example to answer questions 19 to 23.
19. What’s the proportion of respondents in the sample who agreed “Hand guns should be outlawed”?

20. What would be the Z score(s) associated with the confidence level used in this example?

21. Based on the sample information, what’s the standard error?

22. Using the sample information to estimate the population proportion in the example, what’s the margin of error?

23. What conclusion can we make for this example?

According to data from the 2018 General Social Survey (GSS 2018), the average number of years of education of the 2345 adults in the U.S. sample is 13.73, with a standard deviation of 2.974. Compared to the national average of 13.26 years of education in 2000, researchers are wondering if the national education level had increased during these years. Do a hypothesis testing with α=0.05. Use this example to answer questions 24 to 27.

C. The average number of years of education in the U.S. adult population in 2018 was higher than that in 2000.
D. The average number of years of education in the U.S. adult population had decreased from 2000 to 2018.

26. Which of the following statements about this example is correct?
