12.A firm is purchasing a new file server for $680,000 with a 4-year expected life and a salvage value of $50,000. It is expected that the new server will generate an additional $200,000 in revenue each year. The firm will use the straight line method to depreciate the server for financial reporting, but the sum-of-year’s digits (SYD) method for tax purposes. How much tax will be payable in year two, assuming a 35 percent tax rate? A) $3,850. B) -$1,400. C) $14,875 D) $10,500 The correct answer was A) Income for each year is expected to be $200,000. The second year’s depreciation will be ($680,000 – $50,000) × 0.3 = $189,000, so the taxable income will be $11,000 and the tax will be $11,000 × 0.35 = $3,850.
13.Kruger Associates uses an accrual basis for financial reporting purposes and cash basis for tax purposes. Cash collections from customers are $476,000, and accrued revenue is only $376,000.
