Homework Answers

Answer #1

Calculation of profits :-

Gross profit - (guaranteed salary + operating expenses)

= $300000 - ($30000 + $214000)

= $300000 - ($244000)

= $56000

Profits attributable to Z is 30%

= $56000 × 30%

= $16800.

Profit attributable to Z is = $16800.

Z's basis at year end =

= opening basis of year + profits attributable in year

= $27000 + $16800

= $43800

The Z's basis at year end = $43800
