In 2010, Bill and Joyce Schnappauf live in Wakefield, R.I. Bill
is 50, and Joyce is 48. Bill is
a district sales manager for USC Equipment Corporation, a

Rhode Island firm that manufactures
and distributes gaming equipment. Joyce is a self-employed
author of children’s
books. The Schnappaufs have three children, Will, 21, Dan, 19,
and Tom, 16. In February
2011, the Schnappaufs provide the following basic information
for preparing their 2010
federal income tax return:
1. The Schnappaufs use the cash method of accounting and file
their return on a
calendar-year basis.
2. Unless otherwise stated, assume that the Schnappaufs want to
minimize the current
year’s tax liability. That is, they would like to defer income
when possible and take
the largest deductions possible, a practice they have followed in
the past.
3. Joyce’s Social Security number is XXXXX
4. Bill’s Social Security number is XXXXX
5. Will’s Social Security number is XXXXX
6. Dan’s Social Security number is XXXXX

7. Tom’s Social Security number is XXXXX
8. The Schnappaufs do not have any foreign bank accounts or
foreign trusts.
9. Their address isXXXXX Wakefield, R.I. (02879).
10. The Schnappaufs do not wish to contribute to the
presidential election campaign.
The first phase of the tax return problem is designed to
introduce you to some of the
tax forms and the supporting documentation (Forms W-2, 1099-
INT, etc.) needed to
complete a basic tax return. The first four chapters focus on the
income aspects of individual
taxation. Accordingly, this phase of the tax return focuses on
the basic income concepts.
1. Bill’s W-2 is provided (Exhibit A–1). The 2010 W-2 includes
his salary ($81,000),
bonus ($32,000), and income from group-term life insurance
coverage in excess of
$50,000 ($85.56), and is reduced by his contribution ($4,000) to
USC’s qualified
pension plan. The company contributes 7 percent of Bill’s
salary ($5,670) to the plan.

2. The Schnappaufs receive two 1099-INTs for interest
(Exhibits A–2 and A–3), two
1099-DIVs for dividends (Exhibits A–4 and A–5), and a
combined interest and dividend
statement (Exhibit A–6).
3. Joyce and her brother, Bob, are co-owners of, and active
participants in, a furniture restoration
business. Joyce owns 30 percent, and Bob owns 70 percent of
the
business. The business was formed as an S corporation in 2001.
During 2010, the
company pays $3,500 in dividends. The basis of Joyce’s stock is
$20,000.
4. The Schnappaufs receive a 2009 federal income tax refund of
$380 on May 12,
2010. On May 15, 2010, they receive their income tax refund
from the state of Rhode
Island. In January 2011, the state mails the Schnappaufs a Form
1099-G (Exhibit
A–7). Their total itemized deductions in 2009 were $16,471.

2010-bill-joyce-schnappauf-live-wakefield-r-i.html
5. During 2010, Joyce is the lucky ninety-third caller to a local
radio station and wins
$500 in cash and a stereo system. Despite repeated calls to the
radio station, she
has not received a Form 1099—MISC. In announcing the prize,
the radio station
host said that the manufacturer’s suggested retail price for the
stereo system is
$750. However, Joyce has a catalog from Supersonic
Electronics that advertises the
system for $650.
6. The Schnappaufs receive a Form W-2G (Exhibit A–8) for
their winnings at the Yardley
Casino in Connecticut.
7. On June 26, 2010, Bill receives a check for $16,100 from the
United Insurance Corporation.
Though he was unaware of it, he was the designated beneficiary
of an insurance policy on the
life of his uncle. The policy had a maturity value of $15,500,

and
the letter from the company stated that his uncle had paid
premiums on the policy of $2,900
(Exhibit A–9).
8. Joyce is active in the school PTO. During the year, she
receives an award for outstanding
service to the organization. She receives a plaque and two $125
gift certificates that were
donated to the PTO by local merchants.
9. To complete phase I, you will need Form 1040, Schedule B,
and Schedule D.
INSTRUCTIONS: If you are using tax software to prepare the
tax return or are not completing
phases II and III of the problem, ignore the instructions that
follow. If you are preparing
the return manually, you cannot complete some of the forms
used in phase I until you
receive additional information provided in phase II or phase III.
Therefore, as a general rule,
you should only post the information to the appropriate form
and not compute totals for

that form. The following specific instructions will assist you in
preparing Part I of the return.
a. The only form that can be totaled is Schedule B.
b. Only post the appropriate information to Schedule D. Do not
total any columns.
More information is provided in phase III of the tax return
problem.
c. Do not calculate total income or adjusted gross income on
page 1 of Form 1040.
d. Post the appropriate information on page 2 of Form 1040, but
do not total this
page, compute the federal tax liability, or determine the refund
or balance due
PHA
____________SE II—CHAPTERS 5–8
This is the second phase of the tax return problem you began at
the end of Chapter 4. This phase
of the tax return incorporates the material from Chapters 5, 6, 7,
and 8 by providing you with
information concerning the Schnappaufs’ deductions for 2010.
They provide you with the
following information.
1. Joyce writes children’s books for a variety of publishers. She

has been self-employed since
2002. As a freelance writer, Joyce incurs costs associated with
preparing a manuscript for which
she does not yet have a contract. During the year, Joyce makes
4 business trips, each 3 days long,
to meet with various publishers. For shorter trips that are closer
to home, she either drives or
takes the train and returns the same day. On December 10, 2010,
Joyce receives an advance (see
http://www.justanswer.com/business-finance-homework/6n2lm-
2010-bill-joyce-schnappauf-live-wakefield-r-i.html
below) on her next book. Under the contract, Joyce is scheduled
to begin work on the book on
February 1, 2011, and must have it completed by November 30,
2011. The Schnappaufs’ home
has 3 telephones. Joyce has a separate phone number for her
business. The information on
Joyce’s business is listed below.

2. On January 2, 2010, Joyce purchases a new car to use in her
business. The car, a Volster, costs
$15,200. Joyce pays $5,200 in cash and finances the balance
through the dealer. She uses the car
40 percent of the time for business and drives a total of 11,000
miles during 2009. The total
expenses for the 11,000 miles driven are: repairs and
maintenance, $420; insurance, $680; and
gasoline, $1,375. The correct depreciation expense for 2009 is

$608 ($15,200 _ 40% _ 10%).
3. Joyce’s office is located in a separate room in the house and
occupies 375 square feet. The
total square footage of the house is 2,500. The Schnappaufs
purchased the home on July 7, 1996,
for $70,000. The local practice is to allocate 10 percent of the
purchase price to land. The
depreciation percentage for the office is 0.02564. When Joyce
started her business on January 1,
2002, the fair market value of the house was
$108,000. The total household expenses for 2010 are as follows:
Heat $1,600
Insurance 800
Electricity 700
Repairs to kitchen 1,500
Cleaning 2,200
4. Bill began work on his MBA at Denville University. He
enrolled in two courses, and paid
$2,000 in tuition and $180 for books.
5. Bill and Joyce each contribute $5,000 to their respective IRA

accounts in 2010. The IRA
account is Joyce’s only retirement vehicle. Bill’s basis in his
IRA before the current year’s
contribution is $16,000, and Joyce’s basis is $22,000. The fair
market value of Bill’s IRA on
12/31/10 is $27,150, and the fair market value of Joyce’s IRA is
$32,100. In addition, Bill and
Joyce have Coverdell Education Savings Accounts for Thomas
and contributed $2,000 to the
account.
6. On June 15, 2010, the Schnappaufs’ 2009 station wagon is
totaled in Hurricane Ann. The car
was purchased for $26,100 in November 2008. The Schnappaufs
receive a check for $20,700
from Zippy Insurance Company that represents the fair market
value of the car minus a $500
deductible. On June 26, 2010, they replace the car with a 2010
station wagon. The new car costs
$28,100, and the Schnappaufs receive a rebate check from the
car’s manufacturer for $2,000.
7. The hurricane also damages part of the Schnappaufs’ house.

A tree falls and makes a hole in
the roof above the kitchen. Water damages the kitchen, causing
the new dishwasher to short out,
and it has to be replaced. In addition, the linoleum floor has to
be replaced. The cost of fixing the
hole in the roof is $1,000. The Schnappaufs receive $750
($1,000 repair cost minus $250
deductible) to fix the roof. Information concerning the
dishwasher and the floor is as follows:

Family car used by Bill (ad valorem) 520
