- Tuttle Construction Co. specializes in building replicas of historic houses. Tim Newman, president of Tuttle Construction, is considering the purchase of various items of equipment on July 1, 2014, for 400,000. The equipment would have a useful life of five years and no residual value. In the past, all equipment has been leased. For tax purposes, Tim is considering depreciating the equipment by the straight-line method. He discussed the matter with his CPA and learned that, although the straight-line method could be elected, it was to his advantage to use the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) for tax purposes. He asked for your advice as to which method to use for tax purposes. 1. Compute depreciation for each of the years (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019) of useful life by (a) the straight-line method and (b) MACRS. In using the straight-line method, one-half years depreciation should be computed for 2014 and 2019. Use the MACRS rates presented in Exhibit 9. 2. Assuming that income before depreciation and income tax is estimated to be 750,000 uniformly per year and that the income tax rate is 40%, compute the net income for each of the years 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019 if (a) the straight-line method is used and (b) MACRS is used. 3. What factors would you present for Tims consideration in the selection of a depreciation method?arrow_forwardEntity XYZ acquires a machine for CU100,000. The machine has an estimated useful life of 5 years and zero salvage value. For tax purposes, however, the useful life is 4 years. Net income before taxes equals CU110,000 each year. Every year XYZ has tax-free revenues CU10,000. The statutory tax rate is 20%. Required: 1. Calculate the current tax, the tax expense, and the deferred tax asset or liability for each year. 2. Calculate the effective tax rate and the current tax rate and comment on them.arrow_forwardCompany J bought a piece of equipment for $200,000. This equipment has a useful life of 10 years and a salvage value of $40,000. The company has been using the seven-year MACRS property class to depreciate the asset for tax pur poses. At the end of year 4, the company sold the equipment for $120,000. The tax rate is 40%. What are the net proceeds (after tax) from the sale of the equipment?arrow_forward

Hauswirth bought the warehouse several years ago for $65,000, and it has claimed $23,000 of depreciation expense against the building. (Loss amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Leave no answer blank. Enter zero if applicable. Round your final answers to the nearest whole dollar amount.) Required: a. Assuming that Hauswirth receives $50,000 in cash for the warehouse, compute the amount and character of Hauswirth's recognized gain or loss on the sale. b. Assuming that Hauswirth exchanges the warehouse in a like-kind exchange for some land with a fair market value of $50,000, compute Hauswirth's realized gain or loss, recognized gain or loss, deferred gain or loss, and basis in the new land. c. Assuming that Hauswirth receives $20,000 in cash in year O and a $50,000 note receivable that is payable in year 1, compute the amount and character of Hauswirth's gain or loss in year O and in year 1.arrow_forwardPopeye Company purchased a machine for $340,000 on January 1, 2020.

In Year 3, Redbud experienced a $2,000 loss for net income. Redbud is not in an industry that is eligible for the carryback option, so Redbud will carry the loss forward. Redbud’s tax rate is 20%.
