In 2019, Marigold Enterprises issued, at par, 60 $1,000, 8% bonds, each convertible into 100 shares of common stock.

Throughout 2020, 2,400 shares of common stock were outstanding; none of the bonds was converted or redeemed.

(a) Compute diluted earnings per share for 2020. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.55.)

(b) Assume the same facts as those assumed for part (a), except that the 60 bonds were issued on September 1, 2020 (rather than in 2019), and none have been converted or redeemed. Compute diluted earnings per share for 2020. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.55.)

(c) Assume the same facts as assumed for part (a), except that 20 of the 60 bonds were actually converted on July 1, 2020. Compute diluted earnings per share for 2020. (Round answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.55.)

In 2020 Ryce contributes nondepreciable property with an adjusted basis of $143,400 and a fair market value of $215,100 to the Montgomery Partnership in exchange for a one-half interest in profits and capital. In the next tax year, when the property's fair market value is $229,440, the partnership distributes the property to Jarvis, the other one-half partner. Jarvis's basis in the partnership interest was $229,440 immediately before the distribution. Which partner must recognize the built-in gain, what is the amount recognized, and what is the effect on that partner's basis in the partnership interest? What is the effect on Jarvis's basis in the nondepreciable property received?

Ryce must recognize gain of $71,700 in the year the property is distributed to Jarvis. He increases  his basis in his partnership interest by the gain recognized. Jarvis' basis in the property is $__________.

Algol, Altair, Vernon, Vega, Gamma and Betelgeuse are the only shareholders and directors of Beacon Fun Stuff Pty Ltd. Algol holds 20%, Altair 60%, Vernon 5%, Vega 5%, Gamma 5% and Betelgeuse 5%. The relationship between the rest of the family and Betelgeuse breaks down and Betelgeuse has moved to the USA and is no longer actively involved in the company's management. Algol and Altair called a general meeting to be held at the family home in Hobart on the 20th August 2020. They propose to pass a resolution removing Betelgeuse from the board.

The notice of meeting was sent to Betelguese but was delayed in the post and did not reach him until two days before the meeting. At this late stage he was unable to book a plane ticket from Missouri so could not attend the meeting.

Required: Please advise Betelguese.
