Mrs. Oliver is negotiating to purchase a tract of land from DC Company, a calendar year taxpayer. DC bought this land six years ago for $480,000. According to a recent appraisal, the land is worth $800,000 in the current real estate market. According to DC’s director of tax, the company’s profit on the sale will be taxed at 35 percent if the sale occurs this year. However, this tax rate will definitely decrease to 21 percent if the sale occurs next year. Mrs. Oliver is aware that DC would prefer the sale close next year. However, Mrs. Oliver needs the land immediately to begin construction of a new retail outlet. She offers to pay $875,000 for the land with the stipulation that the sale close by December 31.

Calculate the amount of after-tax cash for the each of the following alternatives.

Superior Developers sells lots for residential development. When lots are sold, Superior recognizes income for financial reporting purposes in the year of the sale. For some lots, Superior recognizes income for tax purposes when the cash is collected. In 2020, Superior sold lots for $20 for which no cash was collected at the time of the sale.

- Floyd, a cash basis taxpayer, has received an offer to purchase his land. The cash basis buyer will pay him either 100,000 at closing or 50,000 at closing and 56,000 two years after the date of closing. If Floyd recognizes the entire gain in the current year, his marginal tax rate will be 25% (combined Federal and state rates). However, if he spreads the gain over the two years, his combined marginal tax rate on the gain will be only 20%. Floyd does not consider the buyer a credit risk, and he understands that shifting the gain to next year with an installment sale will save taxes. Still, he realizes that the deferred payment will, in effect, earn only 6,000 for waiting two years for the other 50,000. Floyd believes he can earn a 10% before-tax rate of return on his after-tax cash. Floyds adjusted basis for the land is 25,000, the buyer is also a cash basis taxpayer, and the short-term Federal rate is 4%. Floyd has asked you to evaluate the two alternatives on an after-tax basis.arrow_forward7) Ms. Benoit is a self-employed architect who earns $300,000 annual taxable income.

- At the beginning of the year, Mr. Lanier put $50,000 cash into Investment X. At the end of the year, he received a check for $2,800, representing his annual return on the investment.
