[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]
Sandra would like to organize LAB as either an LLC (taxed as a sole proprietorship) or a C corporation. In either form, the entity is expected to generate an 13 percent annual before-tax return on a $660,000 investment. Sandra’s marginal income tax rate is 37 percent, and her tax rate on dividends and capital gains is 23.8 percent (including the 3.8 percent net investment income tax).

Assume that LAB will distribute all of its after-tax earnings every year as a dividend if it is formed as a C corporation. (Round your intermediate computations to the nearest whole dollar…

- Problem 13-88 (LO. 8) Lloyd owns a beach house (four years) and a cabin in the mountains (six years). His adjusted basis is $300,000 in the beach house and $315,000 in the mountain cabin. Lloyd also rents a townhouse in the city where he is employed. During the year, he occupies each of the three residences as follows: Townhouse 135 days Beach house 155 days Mountain cabin 75 days The beach house is close enough to the city so that he can commute to work during the spring and summer.
