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_forwardQuestion 3What is the proper solution for this problem? B.

For the period from August 1 to December 31, B Division's revenue amounted to P5,000,000 while expenses totaled P4,500,000. The carrying amount of B Division's net assets on December 31, 2021 was P21,000,000 and the fair value less cost of disposal was P25,000,000. The sale contract requires the company to pay termination cost of affected employees in the amount of P1,200,000 to be paid on September 30, 2022. The income tax rate is 30%. Required:25 – 27.
