Donations to various universities (keep those science professors happy!) $200,000. State tax and local license expenses $300,000. Start up costs $41,000; Miscellaneous other costs $459,000. Depreciation - 100% bonus depreciation was taken on all the testing equipment owned by WGT - $5 million. Book depreciation was $1 million on these assets. since the company estimated a 5 year life on these assets that cost $5 million. Permits - $3 million. Insurance - $6 million. Rental - Company headquarters - Manhattan Trump Tower - Floor 52 - $16 million. CPA and Attorney fees - $6 million. Breakdown of Other things? The interest income of $1 million included $500,000 from an investment in State of California Bonds and another $400,000 from investment in State of New York Bonds. The balance of $100,000 was interest received from an investment into a Russian Bank. The New York bonds were sold on 12\/25\/19 at a $1 million loss. Also, they told me they paid a $2 million dividend - $1.6 to Erba, it's Italian parent company, and the remaining $400,000 was paid $80,000 to each of the 5 officers. Paid on Christmas day - 12\/25\/2019. Erba was funded significantly by Banco De Milano (75% investment); the other 25% was from its IPO in late 2018 on the Italian Stock Exchange. Erba prepares all its Financial Statements under current IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards). Finally - WGT PAID NO TAX to the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT in the USA - at least not NYET! BUT they did pay that state tax I mentioned above! I think they hoped to be granted a federal tax exemption by their friends in Congress - sort of like a \\\"bail out!\\\"- it's rumored that a tax bill is circulating that will grant a 50% tax credit to all US subsidiaries of Italian Parent Companies when the US company engages in FDA fast track approval process for drugs related to combating Covid-19,, when said work is performed at no less than nor no more than 5 facilities in 5 states that employ at least 25 employees or \"full time equivalents\" earning no less than $40,000 per worker. Time will tell if this tax bill will pass....but at least we know that it will not apply to 2019, unless Congress makes it retroactive. THAT'S ALL I GOT FOR NOW ! Can you use this data and - 1. Complete the Schedule M-1 (feel free to do it on that Excel Spreadsheet I gave you!) 2. Tell me what Line 28 of Page 1 of the Tax Return Form 1120 should be. Again, use the Excel Spreadsheet to c 3. Tell me what Line 30 of same page should be. 4. Tell me how much they will owe in tax? 5. Looking at the Form 1120 - Pages 1 to 6 - Let me know what other detail you might need? I'll be gathering up some more info, such as who the officers are, etc, Email me ANY questions. Need the above REAL FAST - LIKE YESTERDAY! Recall - this assignment is worth about 15% of your grade but, more importantly, could lead to a great future in the world of accounting and tax (or you might want to change your mind and go the medical school, or even better - go into politics!) el Spreadsheet to compute this - line by line.
