 ACCT 67 Deanza College IRS & Itemized Deductions Tax Return
Nathan Cohen , age 45, is a single taxpayer who lives at 2245 Mardel St., San Jose, CA 95130. His social security number is 351-42-1961. Nathan’s earnings and withholdings as a marketing director at a high-tech company for 2019 are:
Earnings from Placeware, Inc. $297,000 (this is after subtracting his health insurance premiums –see below)
Federal Income tax withheld $50,000
State income tax withheld $23,500
Other facts and possibly useful information:
Nathan earns interest on a savings account at Bank of the West of $13,075.
Nathan is divorced and pays his ex-wife $4,000 per month. When their 15-year old daughter (who lives 100% with the ex-wife) reaches 18, the payments drop to $2,800 per month. The reason it drops is because he is no longer paying child support once his daughter turns 18. His ex-wife’s social security number is 857-51-6438. Nathan does not claim his daughter as a dependent.
Nathan paid the following amounts (he has records to prove payment):
California DMV renewal taxes (the value based part) : $300
Credit card interest expense $1,760
Auto Loan interest expense $4,300
Property taxes on his home $6,200
Blue Cross health insurance premiums $1,800 withheld from his paycheck (not deducted on Sch A, already paid with pretax dollars!).
Other medical expenses $790
Income tax preparation fees for his 2018 income tax return $900
Federal 2018 income taxes paid in April 2019 when he filed his 2018 federal income tax return $1,825
California 2018 income taxes paid in April 2019 when he filed his 2018 California tax return $500
Check to Boy Scouts of America $1,100
Check for fundraiser to build a new building at Harker School, where his daughter goes, $8,000. This payment was not related to tuition and neither Nathan nor his family received any specific benefits.
Check to St. Andrews Church $10,000
Stanford Business School Alumni Association $12,000 (fundraiser to support the business school)
Silicon Valley Democratic Party Fund $1,000 (2019 campaign fundraiser)
Nathan paid $100 to attend a fundraising dinner at the Tech Museum of Innovation, the value of the dinner is $50.
Nathan received a Form 1098 Mortgage Interest Statement from Bank of the West indicating $19,700 of interest expense on his mortgage (a qualified acquisition mortgage)
Complete Nathan’s Form 1040, all necessary schedules, Schedule A,Schedule B, Forms 8959 and 8960 . Don’t forget he paid state taxes and they should be deducted on Schedule A. If you need to make assumptions, they should be realistic. Hint: Form 8959, lines 17, 18 and 24 should be $873, and form 8960, Line 17 should be $454, and that the total of these additional taxes belong on Schedule 2 and on line 15 of Form 1040. Line 19 on page 2 of Form 1040 should be $50,873. The additional amount of $873 would have been on his W-2 because his employer would have deducted this amount. Yes, you calculate the $873 additional tax but because it was already withheld by the employer, it is considered tax withheld, a credit towards the tax liability calculated on the tax return.

This includes providing working and ADA accessible links as needed (again, see your textbook).
Remember you need to answer the FAQ questions that you create for your topic.
Remember, your FAQ must be targeted towards a relevant Strayer University audience and topic.
Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
This course requires use of the Strayer Writing Standards (SWS).
Must be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; references must follow SWS or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

SOC 300 Wk 8 Features of Less developed Countries Research Paper
Written Assignment: Comparing Factors that Lead to Underdevelopment Due Week 8 andworth 200 points: THIS ASSIGNMENT IS DUE IN WEEK 8
This assignment calls for you to select two Less Developed Countries (LDCs) and assess if there are any factors that are common to both as far as their development is concerned. Your two countries must come from the following list:
Burundi Benin Cameroon Nigeria Nicaragua Guatemala Central African Republic North Korea Angola Ghana Chad Yemen Eritrea Cuba Congo Thailand Egypt Iran Equatorial Guinea Zimbabwe Zambia Oman Ethiopia Philippines Congo Liberia Gabon Bahrain Tanzania India Guyana Mexico El Salvador Lebanon Honduras Pakistan Syria Guinea Kenya Sri Lanka Algeria Gambia Mozambique Senegal Malawi Indonesia Namibia Vietnam Morocco Myanmar Rwanda Haiti Sudan Bolivia Somalia Kuwait Mauritania Mali South Africa Iraq Botswana Bangladesh Tunisia Niger Libya Malaysia Uganda Panama
Source:United Nations, 2014
It may help you to be familiar with the concept of poor governance, because this often plays a significant part in why a country is underdeveloped.  According to the World Bank, governance is defined as how power is exercised in the management of a country’s economic and social resources for development.  Therefore, if good governance is synonymous with sound development management, then poor governance means a government has failed to deliver desirable outcomes for its people.  This could mean that officials are corrupt, not transparent with their decisions, unqualified to make decisions in the first place, or prone to make decisions based on racism, tribalism or ethnicity — all of which are very common practices in LDCs.
The most common factor used to decide whether countries are underdeveloped nations is through the Human Development Index. Countries that are underdeveloped in nature offer poor health care, few educational opportunities, a low average life expectancy, a low number of job opportunities, few recreational facilities, poor economic growth, a low standard of living, and a poverty-stricken life.
Instructions:
Write at paper that is at least six (6) pages longin which you:
Identify thetwo LDCs (from the approved list) that you will compare and assess. Explain why you chose these two countries.

geography
extractive institutions
governmental corruption
internal or external conflicts
shaky financial systems
unfair judicial systems
ethnic, racial or tribal disparities
lack or misuse of natural resources
closed (statist) economies
