Appendix A: Client General Information
As the newest member on the corporate tax department team, the senior partner assigns you to prepare corporate tax returns for Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. for the most recently completed calendar year (the company uses a calendar year for tax filing).
Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc., is a Maryland C-Corporation that sells athletic shoes and clothing to sports teams at the college level. The company was originally started by Mike Jones and three guys he met while attending UMUC, all of whom were state champions in various sports. Juan Delaross was a swimmer who won the state championship with his killer butterfly stroke in the 100-meter fly. Elroy Mulcane was the college champion in golf and Scott Barnett was the state cycling champion three years in a row. Mike won the state championship as a sprinter all four years of college.
Starting the company was Mike’s idea, he owns the largest percentage of stock, and is the only owner who works in the business. The other three investors brought money to the table, but never planned on working in the sporting goods store. Therefore, no one questioned Mike when he suggested naming the corporation Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. In addition, Mike has always had a strong desire to be known as the big guy on campus even after graduation.
Location
As the old saying goes, Location, location, location. Luckily, Juan is a commercial real estate broker with a reputation for finding the perfect location for small businesses. After showing the location to the other investors, everyone agreed it would attract their target market of young athletic enthusiasts. As corporate officers, Mike and Juan signed a ten-year lease that required $9,200 per year in rent.
The building was built just a few years ago, so minimal expense was projected for maintenance and repairs. For last year, Mike kept repairs expense down to $800, which really pleased Juan, Elroy, and Scott.
Corporate investments
For last year, Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. received the following investment income:
- Interest from its own Accounts Receivables = $1,500
- Interest from corporate bonds = $4,000
- Interest from tax-exempt state bonds = $5,000
- Dividends from various U.S. corporations = $10,000
- Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. owns 20% of the stock of one corporation
Since Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. did not have a net operating loss, its only entry on line 29 is the dividends-received deduction of $8,000 from Schedule C, page 2.
Year-end 20X5, includes a $3,600 capital loss from the sale of securities.
Revenue from Sales
The corporation, which uses an accrual basis of accounting on a calendar year, brought in $2,010,000 in gross sales in 20X5. Just less than 1% of gross sales were returned, thus bringing net sales to $1,990,000. Thanks to Mike’s purchasing savvy, cost of goods sold was $1,520,000, which is less than the industry standard of 80% of sales.
Other Expenses:
Advertising
While the stockholders had intended on spending more on advertising, Mike only spent $8,700 and most of it was in Website development.
Bad debt expense
The corporation uses the specific account write off method for uncollectible accounts receivable. A total of $1,600 in accounts receivable were written off in 20X5.
Charitable contributions
During the year, Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. contributed $11,400 to the UMUC Traveling Athletes Fund and $12,600 to the UMUC Athletic Scholarship Fund.
Depreciation
On Line 8(a) of the Schedule M of the 1120, Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. reports the difference between the depreciation claimed on the tax return and the depreciation shown on the corporation’s books.
Total depreciation from Form 4562 (not illustrated) is $17,600. $12,400 is included as cost of goods sold in Line 5 of the Form 1125-A. Enter the balance of $5,200 on line 20. Book Depreciation is $15,980.
Interest expense:
Mike’s Sporting Goods incurs interest expense on debt to finance operations and to buy investments when a deal is just too good to pass up. Elroy is a securities broker with a national brokerage firm therefore he handles all corporate investments. For last year, the corporation accrued $27,200 in interest expense plus $850 in interest on notes used to carry tax-exempt state bonds.
Salaries
When the corporation was first formed, the four corporate officers agreed to keep their salaries low for the first five years to allow the business to grow. Thus, they agreed to pay Mike $55,000 per year, since he will manage the store, and $5,000 per year to the other stockholders. Thereby, total officers’ salaries will be $70,000 per year for the first five years. Hint: use Schedule E.
Since Mike will be handling the ordering, inventory management, and other administrative tasks, all employees will be in sales. Given the nature of sporting goods stores, everyone agreed the staff should be college students currently attending UMUC. Their goal was to keep wages below $50,000 per year. For last year, Mike managed to keep total wages at $44,000.
All other expenses
All other expenses of operating Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. total $78,300. These expenses include legal fees, office expenses, and sales commissions. Attach a schedule that itemizes these expenses to the return.
Taxes and credits
Taxes:
At December 31, of last year, the corporation had $55,387 in accrued federal income taxes.
Mike’s Sporting Goods made four estimated tax payments totaling $69,711 as follows:
- $17,280 on April 15 of last year
- $17,280 on June 15 of last year
- $17,280 on September 15 of last year
- $17,871 on January 15 of the current calendar year as an estimate for last year’s tax liability.
See the cancelled checks in Appendix F.
Tax Credits:
The work opportunity credit is an incentive to hire persons from groups with a particularly high unemployment rate or other special employment needs. Given the high unemployment rate of college students, Mike’s Sporting Goods, Inc. is eligible for a $6,000 work opportunity credit based on 24,000 hours of work. Hint: use Form 5884. The credit will then carry over to the Schedule J of the 1120.

Global Supply chain paper Business Finance Assignment Help
Five page paper, double spaced, 12 Font, TNR. It needs to have images, graphs, and info from the attached excel (don’t count toward the 5 pages). This may be time consuming so please try to start it right away and don’t hesitate to ask any questions.
This paper involves an excel assignment. Please don’t bid before looking at the attached excel file.
Part Teardown Exercise – The Computer Mouse
Situation:You are a buyer at a major computer manufacturing company.Having recently been hired after graduating from the prestigious WSU Supply Chain Management program, your management has decided to let you lead your own sourcing package in order to demonstrate your purchasing abilities.You have been assigned to work in a team.The product you have been tasked to source is the computer mouse.Recently technological innovations have rendered the traditional mechanical mouse with the rolling ball underneath obsolete.The new technology is the optical mouse.Your organization does not know how much the new optical mouse will cost and has therefore asked you to run a sourcing package in order to find out the new market price and identify a recommended supplier to partner with.
The current supplier of the mechanical version of the mouse has been an excellent supplier in the past and has gone out of their way to try to win the business for the new optical versions.In fact they have even given you a prototype sample to demonstrate the maturity of their development process.The supplier will be providing you with a quotation for the product using the standard piece price breakdown form at a later date.
Task: Your task is to get ahead of the curve and develop your own price analysis of what the part should cost. You will do this by taking apart the prototype mouse down to the component level and building up your own price breakdown sheet that you will be able to use in price negotiations with the supplier.
( I found a link which could give you some idea as to how this may work: https://www.myeducator.com/reader/web/908a/topic10…)
Traditionally, suppliers are less than complete in their piece price breakdowns, choosing to lump together numerous cost components in order to inhibit full visibility into component pricing. You however, cannot do this, but must estimate costs down the component level of purchase for your supplier.In other words, the paper label on the bottom side of the mouse must be a separate line item, just as each screw, resistor, capacitor and microprocessor, to name a few items, should also be separate line items.You will use your company’s standard quoting template / piece price breakdown form for all parts.
Volume Assumptions:100,000 units per year for 3 years
Use a standard Dell Computer Mouse. Please be specific about the mouse parts. (I mean very specific. List everything you can think of, even the smallest parts that are used to make the mouse, don’t forget the interior along with the exterior i.e the plastic used to bulit it, wire etc) Look at the attached excel for price breakdown template which needs to be in the paper.
The paper should have the information below and whatever else you think is necessary

I need more than 90% on this project.. Please understand the project before bidding: Euclidean and Non-Euclidean Geometries Mathematics Assignment Help
I need a experienced tutor, with geometry.. Euclidean and Non-Euclidean Geometries..
Late projects will not be accepted.
Project Rules. This project is to be a collaborative e↵ort between three or four people. You may select your collaborators (they do not have to be from your table.)
Share the work equally. There is to be one write-up per group.
The projects pose questions for you to investigate. There is no unique answer–
just do you own thinking. You are not allowed to consult texts, other people, or the internet. You can talk to the instructor, but nobody else outside of your group. If you consult outside sources you will receive a score of zero on the project.
There are a number of possible projects and di↵erent groups will receive di↵er-
ent problems. If you have seen this project before, request another project.
Your Question. In class we introduced the study of arrangements of lines. We didn’t prove many details, but we did look at the diagrams in the Grunbaum article
where he displays the di↵erent possible of arrangements of small numbers of lines.
In this project you are asked to work out some details and then generalize the
problem to that of arrangements of lines and conics.
Your first problem is to work out the details that show Gunbaum’s figures give
all possible arrangements of three, four or five lines. Provide careful proofs. This
is a good warm up for the next problem which is a more open-ended investigation.
Your second problem is to consider the question of arrangements of lines and
conics. What are the possible ways to arrange one line and one conic, up to projec-
tive equivalence. What about two lines and one conic, or one line and two conics?
What about two lines and two conics, and so forth. If this question is a bit vague,
it is supposed to be–you need to define the parameters. You will note that if the
horizon line does not intersect any of the conics, then they all will appear as el-
lipses. Can you always simplify to this case using projective changes of the plane?
A second issue is what we might mean by cell structure, because now some edges
will be lines and others may be conics.
There are many issues that will come up. Some have multiple resolutions
depending upon how you devise the definitions. Get started and see how far you
can go. Ask your own questions—you are free to take this anywhere that makes
sense. Talk to Prof. Jacob if you need more direction.
Project Write-up. Your project write up should have three parts.
The first section should discuss your process. Include discussion of your con-
jectures and whether they ended up being true or false. Don’t be shy to share
ideas that ended up wrong. This is part of mathematical learning. Also include
where you got stuck and how you overcame being stuck. The writing here should
be informal (but clear) and your ideas can be described intuitively. You might pay
attention to how the precision of your thinking increased with time.
The second part should contain your results. This should consist of carefully
formulated definitions and proofs based upon those definitions. If you cannot prove
a result, but instead give a “plausibility argument”, that is fine, but be sure to
indicate that this is what you are doing. In some projects, you may not have the
tools to prove every result you need. Discuss this issue with the instructor if you
need to. In some projects you may give several di↵erent definitions of a term, and
then be exploring how the results di↵er depending upon the definition. If you are
doing this, be sure to label the dependency of results upon definitions clearly.
The third section is your Appendix. It includes samples of your scratch work,
diagrams, models, etc. All you need to do is organize it. Your writing in part 1
(part 2 possibly as well) should contain references to this Appendix.

Policy Recommendation – Gun Control Writing Assignment Help
This week, you will hand in Parts 2 and 3 of the final assignment.(PLEASE SEE ATTACHED FOR PART ONE)
Part 2: Video Presentation:( TRANSCRIPT)
In
the video presentation, you will provide an analytical discussion and
conclude with an actual policy recommendation (no more than 10 minutes
in length). You must create a transcript of the video with scholarly
references included, but you do not need to speak the references. You can use the Media Gallery tab on the left side of the classroom to upload your video presentation.
You also may use the webcam feature in the Media Gallery to record your
video presentation, or you may use Screencast-0-Matic audio and video.
This assignment will be a video of you – your voice, your face. Please
make sure you are prepared for the technology required to complete the
assignment. Practice early in the term with a mock video and then reach
out to me or Classroom Support if you are having trouble. Please add
this to your Media Collection and be sure to share it. Please label
your file as follows: LastName.FirstName.Week8Assignment (note: is it very important to include your name!)
Discussion:
- Discuss
the alternatives to the current policy option by enumerating and
explaining each policy option in turn. You should present several policy
alternatives, and they must be serious alternatives. The alternatives
presented must be serious contenders that have been weighed in terms of
pros and cons. - Pros
and cons of each policy option should be discussed next. Identify the
political, economic, and security implications for each option. Each
policy option should be compared and contrasted to the other options as
well as to the current policy. The analysis should seriously consider
the feasibility of implementation, not only in terms of economic or
strategic implications, but also in terms of political feasibility.
There are always going to be some benefits and some costs to any policy
proposal – there is no proposal so good that it does not have some costs
associated with it. Trade-offs are the heart of the policy process.
Recommendation:
- Clearly identify which option will be recommended and which options will be discounted.
- Clearly lay out the argument for why that option is better than each of the others.
- Support your arguments with both quantitative and qualitative evidence from academic literature.
Part 3: Written Transcript and Executive Summary:
Written transcript:
In creating the video, it is easier to write your script first and then
create the video. Write as if you are preparing an analytical essay,
but edit the language and tone for video presentation. Upload your
transcript to the Week 8 assignment folder as a Word document. Don’t
forget to include the in-text references and a References List, just
like a normal academic paper. (Do not speak the in-text references –
just skip over them in the video. If it’s important for your audience
to know whose work you are citing, add something like “Stephen Walt
suggests that foreign policy should …”.)
Executive summary:
This component will consist of a 150-word written executive summary,
which you will post in the Week 8 forum. It is due by 11:55 pm Eastern
time on Thursday of Week 8.
The executive summary should include the following information:
- A statement of current policy;
- Reasons for initiation changes;
- Policy options to be considered; and
- Recommended course of action.
Be prepared to defend your reasoning for the new policy in the Week 8 forum, including pros and cons of the alternatives.
