Answer:

Elliot's qualified business income deduction is $28,000.

Explanation:

total income

= share in specified service business income + wages of wife

= 280000*50% + $90000

= $230,000

taxable income before QBI = total income - standard deduction

                                              = $230,000 - $24,000

                                              = $206,000

QBI deduction is lesser of:

- 20% of qualified business income

= $140,000*20%

= $28,000

Therefore,  Elliot's qualified business income deduction is $28,000.

Answer:

Common-ground persuasion technique

Explanation:

A common-ground persuasion technique is a technique aimed at improving interpersonal relationships. Like the word, common ground means establishing agreement on certain ideas or points in other to ensure that relationships between individuals are stable and problem free.

In the case of Rebecca, she has used the common-ground persuasion technique to ensure that her boss accepts her suggestion that one of the office assistants take on the responsibility of completing the sales report. By carefully outlining more disadvantages of her taking up the responsibility, her boss will most likely agree to her suggestion.

Cheers.

Theo wants to have $40,000 for a down payment on a house five years from now. He can either deposit one lump sum today or he can
juin [17]

Answer:

$1932.37

Explanation:

To find out how much additional money he must deposit if he waits for 1 year rather than making a deposit today we need to find the difference:

Difference = Value after 1 year - Present value

We first convert the interest rate percentage by dividing interest rate value by 100

Present Value = $40 000 / (1 + 0.035)5 = $7729.47

Value after 1 year = $40 000 / (1 + 0.035)4 = $9661.81

Difference = $9661.81 - $7729.47 = $1932.37

pogonyaev

Answer:

Accounting revenue = $7,500,000

Tax revenue  = $5,000,000

Explanation:

Contribution margin is net of Sales price and variable cost per unit.

Break-even is the level of sales at which the business have no profit no loss. At this point business only covers the the variable and fixed cost.

Average contribution = (Revenue from Accounting x Contribution of accounting services ) + (Revenue from Tax x Contribution of Tax services )

Average contribution = (60% x 30%) + (40% x 40%) = 18% + 16% = 34%

Revenue at break-even = Fixed cost / Contribution margin ratio

Revenue at break-even = $4,250,000 / 34% = $12,500,000

Accounting revenue = $12,500,000 x 60% = 7,500,000

Tax revenue = $12,500,000 x 40% = 5,000,000
